It is a Chinese tradition to be low-key and do things in a high-profile. This is not the case in the UK. The British do not like to be low-key and introverted. They should enjoy the life of their class. As a high-ranking aristocrat, if you live your life like Grandet, you will
Being laughed at.
Patton is not an aristocrat, but as a naval officer with a strong background, it is necessary to create a character that is untouchable. This may make truly educated people despise him, but there are very few truly educated people in this world.
, it’s more about ordinary people. In the eyes of ordinary people, there is no personal accomplishment, only people who can’t be offended or can be bullied casually.
Barton didn't want to be bullied casually, even if it seemed he could be bullied casually.
After school, Barton called the person in charge of Nyasaland Company in the UK. The person in charge quickly sent the cars over via cargo ship, and the ones delivered were Lord cars, two of them, which made Barton worried again.
.
The person in charge was well-intentioned, but the Lord's car was too expensive. Even the president of the Royal Naval College could not afford a Lord's car. It would be too ostentatious for Barton to drive the Lord's car into the school.
There should be a limit to being high-profile. Just be a little taller than ordinary people. If you are too high, your waist will easily flash.
So the Lord car was replaced by the more common Diesel. Diesel is a civilian car produced by Nyasaland Automobile Group. Although it is "civilian" in name, the price is not cheap. One car costs 150 pounds.
Much more expensive than an American Ford.
The better thing is that Ford has not yet made a big move into Europe, and Nyasaland Automobile Group's products are selling well in Europe.
However, Nyasaland Automobile Group has begun to pay attention to the threat of Ford Motor. If it really wants to reduce costs, Nyasaland Automobile Group has many ways. At least in terms of human resources, the cost of Nyasaland Automobile Group is much lower than that of Ford Motor Company.
Now Nyasaland Automobile Group has begun to develop lower-priced cars to prepare for possible competition from Ford Motor Company at any time.
Last year, Ford's total production of sedans reached 2 million units, and its annual output exceeded 500,000 for the first time. Ford is still adding production lines and trying to reach 1 million units annually.
The output of Nyasaland Automobile Group is smaller than that of Ford, only about 350,000 vehicles.
Although there is a gap in numerical values, the gap in production capacity is actually not that big. Ford now mainly produces Model T cars. In order to further reduce costs, Ford even only produces black cars that use cheap Japanese fuel. Only then does the annual output
Stacked to 500,000 vehicles.
The Nyasaland Automobile Group has a richer product line. In addition to the low-priced Diesel and the expensive Lord, it also produces armored vehicles and tanks. During the World War, the Nyasaland Automobile Group produced a total of nearly 100,000 armored vehicles and tanks.
Tanks, this part of the productivity is now gradually transferred to civilian vehicles. Over time, the output of Nyasaland Automobile Group will increase by leaps and bounds.
In early February, Angel's wedding had not yet taken place, Viscount Glaston's term as Governor-General expired, and the new Governor-General was Horatio Kitchener, who served as Minister of War during the World War.
Horatio Kitchener also had a special feeling for southern Africa. During the Boer War, the British Expeditionary Force defeated the Boer coalition under the command of Kitchener, and today's southern Africa was created.
Interestingly, the Governor-General of Southern Africa at that time was Ade, and Kitchener was the Commander-in-Chief of the British Expeditionary Force. Now Kitchener is the Governor-General, and Ade has become the Prime Minister of Southern Africa, and they are still partners.
The passenger ship Kitchina took arrived at Walvis Bay on February 3rd, and Angel's wedding was held on February 5th. Originally Kitchina was going to take a train to Pretoria to attend the governor's handover ceremony. Roque
There was enough time to go to Pretoria to meet Kitchener after attending Angel's wedding.
However, Kitchener did not follow common sense and took a direct flight from Walvis Bay to Los Angeles. This resulted in Kitchener also arriving on February 5th, so Rock would be very busy on February 5th.
, I have to attend Angel's wedding in the morning, and I have to go to the airport to meet Kitina in the afternoon.
As Prime Minister, Ade was unable to leave Pretoria, so Philip flew to Los Angeles on behalf of the Southern African Federal Government to prepare to welcome Kitchener.
"Our governor's character is really weird. I don't know how you can tolerate it." Philip didn't like Kitchina, who was also famous for his eccentric personality.
Similar to this direct flight from Whale Bay to Los Angeles, it is not without a record. During the Boer War, Kitchener often suddenly wanted to go to a certain place for inspection, and then Kitchener would take the guard and take the train there.
Notify anyone in advance.
This time Kitchener made a surprise attack again. He did not go to Cape Town, Pretoria, or Bloemfontein, but came directly to Los Angeles. This not only fully proved Kitchener's influence on
The attention of Rock and Nyasaland also proved that Kitchina was still the stubborn Kitchinna and had not changed because he commanded the British Army to win the World War.
"I feel pretty good. Compared with those people who have nothing to do with their bodies, Marshal Kitchina's character can be ignored." Rock didn't think this was a major shortcoming. There are many people with greater shortcomings than Kitchina. The British government decided to let Kitchina
Chinna succeeds Viscount Glaston as Governor-General of Southern Africa, which is much better than having someone else serve as Governor-General.
At least Kitchener and Adrock and other senior officials in southern Africa are familiar with each other, which is more conducive to communication between the British mainland and the southern African federal government.
After the end of the World War, the relationship between Southern Africa and the British mainland entered a new period. Not only Southern Africa had to adapt, but the British government also had to adapt. At this time, Kitchener, the governor-general, had a very important task, and he had to maintain it to the greatest extent possible.
Relations between southern Africa and mainland Britain.
Now for the British mainland, southern Africa can be said to be the most important part of the British Empire. Compared with southern Africa, even India's human resources are no longer so important.
"Lord, it's time-" Fitch came and knocked on the door, reminding Rock and Phillip to go to the wedding venue in advance.
The wedding was held at the Matilda Church in Los Angeles. Paul Morgan, the Archbishop of the Protestant Diocese of Southern Africa, personally presided over the wedding of Angel and Qiao Jingyan. The wedding ceremony was not completely conducted in accordance with the Protestant procedures, and there was no officiant or witness.
It is said that the groom and the bride are the absolute protagonists of the wedding.
Because we have to welcome Kitchener today, the fathers of the groom and the bride are very busy, so the wedding process has been simplified to the extreme. And because Roque and Philip are present, the atmosphere of the wedding is also a bit solemn. Several of Qiao Jingyan’s colleagues also
I attended the wedding, but they were all shivering in the corner of the auditorium and didn't dare to say anything. With a status like Rock's, he certainly wouldn't do anything like whistling to liven up the atmosphere. The wedding would proceed according to normal procedures.
The whole wedding only took 45 minutes. After the wedding, Roque, Philip and other senior officials did not even have time to attend the wedding banquet, so they went directly to the airport to greet Kitchener.
The Los Angeles Airport is not far from Matilda Church. It was renovated by the flying club where Angel learned flying skills. Now the airport is of course large in scale. In addition to the brand-new terminal building, it has also built a spacious and flat runway. But
For large aircraft to take off and land.
Small planes are different from large planes. Military fighter jets can take off and land on any flat grassland, while large planes need a well-equipped airport. Compared with bombers, civilian aircraft especially emphasize comfort, and a flat and wide runway is essential.
At exactly 12 noon, Kitchener's plane landed at Los Angeles Airport on time.
Roque prepared a grand welcome ceremony for Kitchina at the airport, with a red carpet and guard of honor and a salute. When Kitchina walked down the gangway, Philip stood at the front of the welcoming team. Behind Philip were Roque and Luo Ke.
Behind Gram is Anton.
What is surprising is that Kitchina's expression is not relaxed, and is even a bit serious, which is unusual. Generally speaking, even if Kitchinna doesn't like Nyasaland, he has to pretend to like it at this time.
Kitchina is a person who is not good at pretending.
It doesn't matter if you are unhappy. The federal government of Southern Africa has reached the point where it wants to please London at any time. Even if Kitchener does not like Southern Africa, it cannot change the current situation of London and Southern Africa being weak and strong.
"Marshal Kitchinna, welcome to Nyasaland -" Roque said little while shaking hands with Kitchinna.
"Locke, long time no see -" Kitchina said even less, and Rock even saw pain in Kitchina's eyes.
Pain is an emotion that rarely appears in Kitchina.
Because Kitchina was in a low mood, the ceremony of reviewing the guard of honor prepared by Rock was not used. Kitchina and Rock got into the same car and sat in the car. Kitchina frowned and looked worried.
.
Since Kitchina didn't say anything, Roque didn't ask. The car drove out of the airport and entered Sunset Boulevard. Looking at Lake Niassa next to Sunset Boulevard, Kitchinna finally spoke.
"I'm very sad today. Just when I got on the plane, the Military Intelligence Agency arrested Chris -" Kitchin leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes in pain. Chris was a man who worked next to Kitchin.
A military officer, Roque also knew him.
"Why?" Rock was surprised, and his expression instantly darkened.
"Chris had an inappropriate relationship with a German dancer during the World War. The Military Intelligence Bureau believed that Chris leaked information about the expeditionary force to the dancer -" Kitchener was not aware of this situation when he spoke.
severity.
Rock didn't speak, Kitchina didn't know, but Rock knew. In another time and space, it seemed that an officer next to Kitchina leaked Kitchinna's whereabouts to a German dancer, which led to Kitchina's death.
Died on the way to Russia.
But that's not what Rock is concerned about. What Rock is concerned about is that the Military Intelligence Agency dared to blatantly tear up the agreement with Brad's office and still have activities in southern Africa. This is too much!
