In fact, if there are no restrictions, the Chinese are also very capable of having children. In many Chinese families in southern Africa, it is normal to have one more child every year. There are no entertainment projects these days. The couple just turn off the lights at night. So even if Roque is now
Don’t worry if immigration from the Qing Dynasty stops. There are already more than 100,000 Chinese women in southern Africa. Even natural childbearing can ensure the growth of the Chinese population.
Of course, if immigration is stopped, population growth will be slower, and it will definitely take time for the next generation to grow up. If we want to obtain enough human resources in a short period of time, immigration cannot be stopped.
Yaya also knows that the German reinforcements are about to arrive in Tanganyika, so despite the current strength of the Fort Glory troops, they may disappear once they encounter setbacks.
Therefore, Yaya very much hopes that Roque can send troops to directly support Mumu. If this is not possible, he must send enough instructors and staff to Tanganyika.
Rock had previously sent more than thirty staff officers to Tanganyika, and these staff officers played an important role. Without their efforts, the Fort Glory troops might have been completely defeated in the last encirclement and suppression of Tanganyika by the German army. "I'm sorry Yaya, under the current situation, if we continue to send military advisers to Tanganyika, it may cause friction with the German government." Roque will definitely not give up Mumu, but he can't let go easily and sell it.
Favors also come with skills.
"Lord, can I not do it in the name of Nyasaland, but on a voluntary basis, I am willing to personally finance the hiring of military advisors from southern Africa to Tanganyika, is that okay?" Yaya already has a solution, won't he?
Make things difficult for Rock.
There are a lot of articles to be done for this "voluntary" activity.
During the Boer War, more than 2,000 "volunteers" from Europe joined the Boer coalition to fight against the British troops. As for whether those "volunteers" were truly voluntary, the British government had no way of verifying them.
In other words, if foreign volunteers volunteered to join the Fort Glory troops during the Tanganyika Civil War, the German government would not be able to do anything about it.
Rock didn't expect Yaya to come up with this name. It was probably Louis Brod's handwriting. Yaya was unlikely to understand the twists and turns.
Since it's all about this, Roque has no reason to refuse.
So that night, about one company of officers and soldiers of the Nyasaland Assault Regiment retired directly and voluntarily joined the Glory Castle troops.
Three days later, Yaya took away two thousand Gorkha mercenaries from Port Edward. These Gorkha mercenaries had received more than three months of formal training in Nepal and were now ready to undertake combat missions.
What's even more wonderful is that these Gurkha mercenaries have not yet become the regular army of southern Africa, so they do not even need to retire. They take the train directly from Port Edward to Xuanwu City, then go to Tanganyika, and directly join the Glory Fort troops.<
/p>
Because of language problems, these Gorkha mercenaries formed a separate unit. The name of the unit was the Glory Castle Lions Regiment. The leader was the major battalion commander Wu Ben who had just retired from the Nyasaland Assault Regiment.
"If I want to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, I need an auxiliary force of at least 4,000 people. At the same time, I require all British-style equipment. When these Gurkha mercenaries were trained in Nepal, they used British-style equipment. If they are replaced rashly,
It will definitely affect the combat effectiveness of the troops." Wu Ben has a lot of requirements. There are no trucks in Fort Glory, and the transportation of weapons, ammunition and other logistical materials depends on shoulders and hands, so auxiliary troops are very necessary.
The armies of this era, that is, the Northern Rhodesian Division and the First Cavalry Division probably do not need auxiliary troops. When armies from other countries are dispatched, they basically need to be equipped with the same number of auxiliary troops, so under normal circumstances each has less than 20,000 troops.
With a human division, the total number of people during the war will reach more than 40,000.
These auxiliary troops can also go to the battlefield when necessary. They are more cannon fodder than "cannon fodder".
"No problem, the equipment is ready, and the auxiliary troops can be formed at any time. You will be stationed in the Glory Castle during this period, but we don't have much time, and the war will break out at any time." The scar on Mumu's face was very clear, because
Pigments were also used at that time, so just like tattoos, even if the wound heals, the scar will not disappear.
Mu Mu was brave and invincible on the battlefield, and now he was very friendly in front of Wu Ben. Mu Mu did not dare to show off in front of Wu Ben. Even Mu Mu would call Wu Ben "sir" when he saw Wu Ben. p>
Wu Ben also knew that the situation was urgent and that German reinforcements might arrive in Tanganyika at any time. Erich von Falkenhayn was very good at concealing the truth. The last time Erich von Falkenhayn carried out a surprise attack, because Niagara
The intervention of the Salan Commando Regiment failed. This time Erich von Falkenhayn will definitely be fully prepared and complete the battle. Germany cannot afford another defeat.
In fact, the current public opinion in Germany is already very turbulent. After the arms race began, Germany concentrated domestic materials to supply the navy. As a result, Germany suffered from domestic material shortages, soaring prices, and widespread complaints.
After all, Germany does not have hundreds of years of accumulation like the United Kingdom. Germany has been unified for only a few decades, and there is no blood transfusion from the colonies. To be honest, only the lunatic William II dared to provoke an arms race with the United Kingdom. If it had been someone else, I'm afraid
I dare not even think about it.
Roark is of course happy to see the situation in Germany. The arms race has deeply affected the lives of German civilians. The lives of ordinary people are very difficult. Even the lives of the middle class have begun to become increasingly difficult. As a result, during this period, people willing to
There are a lot of Germans immigrating to Nyasaland, nearly a thousand people every month.
In fact, there are many German immigrants in Nyasaland. After the conflict with Tanganyika, the Germans in Nyasaland were originally worried that Roque would retaliate against the Germans in Nyasaland. As a result, Roque was magnanimous.
What's more, not only does it not restrict the Germans in Nyasaland, but it also comforts the Germans. Even for those Germans who voluntarily leave Nyasaland because they are worried about retaliation, Roque does not stop them, but politely
Being sent out of the country really made Rock and Nyasaland feel good about each other.
The Germans in Nyasaland have always been in contact with relatives and friends in Germany.
Many ethnic Germans in Nyasaland will definitely describe life in Nyasaland in their correspondence. In the past, Germans in Germany might have been able to resist the temptation. Now that life in Germany is in trouble, many people have taken the initiative to immigrate to Nyasaland.
Saran.
Even in the propaganda of the German government, the Nyasalans are green-faced and fanged man-eating monsters.
This is really not an exaggeration. This is how the German newspapers described the Nyasaland people.
Of course, such propaganda will only have an effect on ordinary people who have not received much education. Real scholars will not be affected by the propaganda of the German government.
For example, Edward Buechner came to Nyasaland University at the end of February to visit Abu's newly built laboratory.
Edward Bichner was a German chemist, known as a "genius chemist born from a farmer".
About ten years ago, Eduard Buechner extracted enzymes from yeast and made dry powder, which was used to decompose sugar into carbon dioxide and alcohol. This was of great significance to both the sugar industry and the brewing industry. Eduard Buichner also
Therefore, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year.
In fact, last year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry was very controversial. During the selection, Abu received a higher voice for penicillin, but the Nobel Prize jury finally awarded the award to Edward Buechner.
The relationship between Edward Buechner and Abu has always been very good, so Edward Buechner thought that he had robbed Abu of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and he felt quite uneasy.
Although Abu now does not have the halo of the Nobel Prize, he has both fame and fortune, so naturally he does not care about the Nobel Prize. After the establishment of Nyasaland University, Roque invited Abu to serve as the dean of the School of Chemistry at Nyasaland University. Abu readily agreed.
And the biology laboratory was moved from Ziwei Town to Xuanji City.
This time, Abu invited Edward Buechner to attend the inauguration ceremony of the biological laboratory.
Of course, Luo Ke would not miss such an opportunity. He came to Xuanji City early to see if there was any chance of poaching.
In fact, after the Russo-Japanese War, Abu's achievements were so eye-catching. Penicillin and Baiyao established Abu's position as the first person in the field of biology. Of course, Rock also hyped up Abu's income, so many European scientists
I have a certain fondness for Nyasaland.
After all, everyone wants to see their research results taken seriously. This not only represents a huge honor, but also a huge reward.
What Rock is trying to show is Nyasaland’s emphasis on scientific research.
"The efforts of scientific researchers do not match the rewards they receive. Many people are unknown, not because they are incompetent, but because they have no chance to perform. Some time ago, the University of Paris sued the University of Nyasaland for infringement, which fully demonstrated
The rigidity and decay of the European education system. Alan Milton was just an unknown lecturer at the University of Paris. He worked hard for more than 20 years and could not even be treated as a professor. At the University of Nyasaland, Alan Milton was
Professor and deputy director of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Alan Milton's monthly income is more than one thousand pounds thanks to many inventions. This can fully reflect the value of talents. Why can the Minister of Foreign Affairs receive an annual salary of five thousand pounds?
, and a university lecturer only has one hundred pounds? This is not fair!" Rock simply spoke to the hearts of these scientists.
Although it is vulgar to talk about money with scientists, many things in this world are measured by money. To talk about ideals without talking about money is to be a gangster. Top scientists probably will not be tempted by money, but ordinary scientific researchers will spend money to throw money at them.
Still very effective.
What Rock hopes to get are ordinary scientific researchers.
