Chapter 1028 Floating

The total population of southern Africa, just like the epidemic in the UK, has been 5.5 million since 1911, neither increasing nor decreasing.

In fact, in the four years after the outbreak of the World War, the Immigration Bureau in Walvis Bay alone registered more than 3 million new immigrants, all of whom were whites from Europe.

In addition to Walvis Bay, Port Edward is a major landing place for new immigrants in southern Africa. Immigrants from the Far East land in southern Africa from Port Edward, and then travel to various parts of southern Africa by boat or train. Because of the specific conditions in southern Africa, Edward

The federal government does not have statistics from the Port Immigration Bureau. Except for relevant officials in Nyasaland, no one knows how many people have come to southern Africa through Port Edward over the years.

The only thing that is certain is that the population of southern Africa has increased over the years. Not only the Cape Transvaal, Rhodesia, Nyasaland, Bechuanaland and Natal are now also adding many new immigrants.

Lorenzo Marquez is nicknamed "Little Nyasaland" by southern Africans. The combined population of Southwest Africa and Tanganyika, which have just been included in the southern African territory, has exceeded 3.5 million.

All the 3.5 million people here are Chinese or white. The specific proportion is unclear. Anyway, the Chinese far outnumber the whites. In some areas, the proportion of Chinese is 100%.

The British also have intelligence agencies in Southern Africa. According to estimates by the British intelligence agency in Nyasaland, even if Africans are not counted, the total population of Southern Africa is now 18 million, which is 2.2 million when Southern Africa was founded.

The population has increased significantly, and 70% of the new population are Chinese.

This once became a hidden danger in the eyes of the British government. However, after the outbreak of the World War, the Chinese in Southern Africa performed better and better, and the importance of this hidden danger was significantly reduced. Statistics from the Ministry of Justice of Southern Africa show that Chinese are easier to rule than whites.

They are more stable, more disciplined, and easier to get along with. There are very few Chinese crimes in southern Africa, but the proportion of white people committing crimes is very high, even higher than that of Africans.

At the same time, the Chinese in Southern Africa are also better at managing money. Statistics show that in most cases, farms run by Chinese farmers can turn a profit within three years, and then their operating conditions are very stable. There are very few Chinese farms.

The owner's farm went bankrupt.

Relatively speaking, the ability of white farmers to manage farms is far inferior to that of Chinese. Under the same conditions, farms run by white farmers may not be able to turn a profit in five years. Many farms run by white farmers will inexplicably fall into operating difficulties, and then

The economy went bankrupt, the farm was confiscated by the bank, and the farmer became a poor white man, or left southern Africa again and started over in other countries such as Canada and Australia.

One fact is certain, even if these bankrupt farmers start over in another area, their tragedy will most likely happen again.

Other regions do not have such responsible governments and easy-to-talk banks as Southern Africa. Let’s not talk about anything else. Banks’ loan interest rates are much higher, while deposit interest rates are very little or none at all, or depositors are required to pay

Money, banks are reluctant to provide services to ordinary people.

Roque, no matter how many Chinese there are in Southern Africa, backed by the Chinese, the largest single group in the world, if there are not as many Chinese as white people in Southern Africa, then Roque can hang himself. Now there are not even a single African and white population in Southern Africa.

There are many Chinese people, and the social status of Chinese people has been raised to the same level as that of white people. How can anyone dare to discriminate against Chinese people at this time?

It would be great if the Chinese do not discriminate against white people or Africans.

"Yes, I am ready to let the Germans continue to bleed like this and see how long the Germans can persist." Roque was ruthless. France lost a whole generation in order to win the world war. Britain had 2 million people after winning the world war.

Widow, Germany cannot survive alone.

"Then let's do it, Locke. Next, I don't want to see the French government being treated differently. With more advanced tanks and aircraft, France demands fair treatment." Pétain's voice was really sad to hear.

Crying, Rock remained indifferent.

If you want to buy better aircraft and tanks, you can, but you have to pay more. At the price given by the French government, you can only buy basic versions of aircraft and tanks.

The result of two casual drinks in the bar at night was that when the joint meeting was convened again the next day, Pershing, who had been recuperating in the temporary residence after the meeting, was surprised to find that Roque and Pétain seemed to have reached an agreement.

This kind of confrontation basically did not occur. Pétain still occasionally made sarcastic remarks, Roque counterattacked quietly and fiercely, Foch acted as the good old man to mediate both sides, and Pershing basically became a transparent person.

In the current situation of the joint meeting, it is true that the British and French coalition forces can completely suppress the voice of the U.S. military. This is not to say that Pershing is not working hard. In fact, the United States only has a gross national product that has surpassed Britain and France to become the world's largest, but its comprehensive national strength and

Britain and France are still far behind.

Pershing was not one to sit still. On the third day of the meeting, Pershing suggested adding seats to the Kingdom of Belgium, Italy and Romania. These countries were also members of the Allied Powers and part of the coalition, and they also had their own interests and demands.

Pershing thought that this would give him the right to speak against Roque and Pétain. As a result, Foch, an old fox, stabbed Pershing hard and directly announced the official end of the first joint meeting. The meeting was an unprecedented success. The troops on the Western Front also

to reach agreement through joint meetings, etc., etc.—

The 500 words are omitted here, and everyone can make up the content of the leadership report by themselves.

Back at the headquarters, Rock continued to happily rotate the frontline troops.

As the Western Front gradually stabilized, Winston finally sent part of the British army to France to participate in the war. The troops commanded by Roque exceeded 3 million for the first time, which was basically the same as the French army commanded by Pétain.

"My Lord, General Ethan asked for instructions whether to continue strategic bombing against strategic targets in Germany." After Patton went to the Navy, Paul Coker almost became Rock's personal secretary.

With experience serving in the Mediterranean Fleet, Patton took to the Southern African Navy like a duck to water.

In the Southern African Navy, Patton was first appointed captain of the destroyer "Valiant" and assumed escort missions.

Immediately afterwards, Patton was appointed captain of the light cruiser "Edward" and joined the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force's combat sequence. The "Edward" light cruiser was also the flagship of the Edward Fleet in southern Africa.

Now Patton is leading six swift fleets, including the light cruiser "Edward", to join the British Grand Fleet and participate in the blockade of the German coastline. The British Home Fleet may be the largest and most powerful fleet in the world, and it is only a battleship.

There are 21 ships, all of which are super-dreadnoughts newly built after the outbreak of the World War. After the World War is over, Patton may have the opportunity to become the commander of a fleet in southern Africa.

At that time, the Southern African Navy might be able to have aircraft carriers.

"Of course, we have to put some pressure on Germany itself and let the Germans feel the pain caused by the world war. In this way, when Germany wants to take risks again in the future, it will seriously think about whether it is worth it." Roque will not stop talking about it.

Although the bombing effect on the German mainland was not obvious and the number of bombers lost was increasing, the bombing could not be stopped.

Strategic bombing does not require obvious results. It is not just an attack on military targets. In addition to military bases and military facilities, it will also conduct thorough attacks on production facilities, transportation agencies behind the enemy's rear, and even general residential areas.

.

The purpose of strategic bombing is to completely destroy the enemy country's ability to conduct war and make the enemy's government and people lose the will to continue the war.

After so much copying, the real effect is not obvious. This is the first time a country has carried out purposeful strategic bombing against another country. The role of strategic bombing can only be proved by comprehensively analyzing the losses of the enemy country after the war. So

In the eyes of many people, Rock's insistence on strategic bombing of the German mainland was of little use, and it was a waste of money and people, and was in vain.

Rock would definitely not think so. For those who said strategic bombing was useless, Chongqing, the capital of China in 1938, had something to say. Hamburg, Germany, in 1943, also wanted to say mmp. As for Tokyo in 1945, it was even mentioned.

Just a handful of bitter tears.

"Okay, I also have a telegram sent to you by Mr. Gandhi of India. I hope you can help India. What do you think?" Paul Coker looked at Rock, Gandhi and Rock with interest.

It is true that he had some friendship with Croquet when he was in southern Africa, but based on that little friendship, Gandhi wanted Rock to provide support to India. What did Rock think?

Of course I sit and watch.

Another large-scale famine occurred in India. This time the famine was also related to India's war support for Britain.

Rock was very depressed. Rock could understand the Indians' eagerness to obtain autonomous status like Canada and Australia in southern Africa, and he could also understand India's determination to feed back the British. This may be a rare pride for India.

See, even the British Empire needs our help, so we are more powerful than the British Empire!

The crux of the matter is, can India not repay the British Empire so completely? Donating food, not even keeping rations and seeds, but donating all of it. In this way, all the food can be donated, and then when there is a famine, it will ask for help.

How much does the British aid cost every time it comes back?

I guess this is also the purpose of Indian officials. Just like the story about taking the fat meat out of the refrigerator and putting it back in again, it seems that there is no less meat, but the hands holding the meat have a lot more oil.
