When the Nyasaland militia defeated the Belgian mercenaries, Ulysses's name was still Kalemi.
After the Congo Free State ceded the North Sea coast, including Ulysses, to Nyasaland, the settlements along the North Sea coast were replaced with names in line with traditional Chinese culture. Ulysses was an exception. The former Belgian garrison
The castle was renamed Glory Castle.
So this name is really not a satire on Erich von Falkenhayn.
"It is indeed not easy for the militia to defeat the mercenaries. I have heard about that battle." Erich von Falkenhayn also did his homework when he came and understood the series of events after Nyasaland became the Rock Territory.
Great achievements.
"Invite me here. Today's dinner has prepared traditional German bacon sausages and dark beer. I hope it will make you feel like going home." Roque's preparations are still very sufficient. Nyasaland's delicacies are far and near.
Famous for the same grilled sausage, the chefs in Nyasaland also have a unique flavor, no less than the local chefs in Germany.
Erich von Falkenhayn's attention was obviously not on the food. During the period after disembarking from the ship, the urban construction of Ulysses had left enough shocks to Erich von Falkenhayn.
, after arriving at Glory Castle, this shock reached a new level.
In fact, Africa in this era has always given people the impression of being desolate and backward, and it is basically two different concepts from the civilized world.
Ulysses changed Erich von Falkenhayn's impression of Africa. As a former Belgian colony, many buildings in Ulysses have obvious Gothic style and became part of Nyasaland.
After that, most of the buildings in Ulysses were in the Victorian style. The two styles of architecture were said to be completely unrelated, but a very strange balance was formed in Ulysses.
Everyone in Seth was amazed.
The Glory Castle in Ulysses is a fusion of Gothic style and Victorian style. Gothic architecture is famous for its towering, weird and mysterious style, while the Victorian style uses a large number of new building materials and has obvious characteristics of the Industrial Revolution. The main building of Fort Glory is a Gothic-style castle, but the supporting buildings are all made of Victorian-style red bricks and reinforced concrete. The decoration inside the castle is also mainly in the traditional British style, with neatly uniformed guards.
With the maid, Erich von Falkenhayn really felt a lot of pressure.
Erich von Falkenhayn's visit to Nyasaland this time was not public, so not many people attended the dinner. There were only Erich von Falkenhayn and two officials in Tanganyika.
, there are only Rock and Sidney Milner in southern Africa.
After three rounds of drinking, Erich von Falkenhayn finally spoke of the purpose of his trip: "Your Lordship, I know that there have been some frictions between Tanganyika and Nyasaland before, and I hope that we can
Forget the unpleasantness as soon as possible, after all, we don’t want things to evolve to the point where we are unable to control them.”
Rock just smiled and said nothing, and did not respond to Erich von Falkenhayn's statement at all. From what he said, it seemed that Erich von Falkenhayn had not accepted the reality, or he was pretending.
The posture, whatever the circumstances, is not in the interests of Nyasaland and southern Africa.
On the other hand, Sidney Milner spoke sharply: "General Falkenhayn, we in southern Africa have always wanted to maintain friendly relations with Tanganyika. Unfortunately, it seems that some people in Tanganyika do not think so. If you understand the situation,
You will know that most of the responsibility for the current situation lies with Tanganyika, and it is not that we in southern Africa deliberately cause trouble."
It is difficult to answer this question. It seems that it is not clear at this point who is who. Erich von Falkenhayn has only been in Tanganyika for a few months. Even if Tanganyika is responsible,
It has little to do with Erich von Falkenhayn.
Not to mention, Erich von Falkenhayn will never admit that the reason why the current relationship between Southern Africa and Tanganyika is at this point is Tanganyika's responsibility.
Therefore, Erich von Falkenhayn's attitude was also very firm: "The current relationship between Southern Africa and Tanganyika is still rooted in Nyasaland's support for the Honorfort rebels. Lord Nyasaland
, put yourself in your shoes, what would you do if Tanganyika supported the rebels in Nyasaland?"
This question seems difficult to answer, but for Rock, there is no hesitation: "There will be no rebellion in Nyasaland similar to the rebellion in Tanganyika!"
This conclusion is a bit arbitrary, but it is normal for Nyasaland. Even if there are people in Nyasaland who oppose Roque's authority, the Nyasaland military and police can easily quell the individual actions of a few people. The rebels
There is no chance to grow and develop.
In this regard, Erich von Falkenhayn obviously did not have the confidence. The Glory Castle rebels were only a small number at the beginning, but they gradually grew to where they are today. Of course, there was the support of Nyasaland.
The incompetence of the Tanganyika military is also an important reason, otherwise the Glory Castle rebels would have no chance of getting support from Nyasaland.
"Face the reality, General. The current reality is that the Tanganyika military has no ability to quell the rebellion in Tanganyika. If you are willing, I can contact the Glory Castle troops and we can sit down together and discuss how to
Solve the Tanganyika problem." Sidney Milner suggested, earning a glare from Erich von Falkenhayn.
Negotiating with the rebels is tantamount to admitting defeat for the Tanganyika military. The German government has invested tens of millions of marks in stabilizing the situation in Tanganyika, and it is impossible to accept this result.
"Of course, if you don't agree, then you must be prepared for a protracted war. There is no possibility of relaxation between the Tanganyika government and the Glory Castle troops. If the mainland continues to increase troops, then Tanganyika may return to its previous state.
It depends on how determined you are." Sidney Milner was not impatient. The one who should be anxious now is Erich von Falkenhayn.

"Yes, of course we can sit down and have a chat. We also need to listen to the voices of the Gloryburg rebels." Erich von Falkenhayn agreed to contact the Gloryburg troops for some unknown purpose. Rock and Sidney Milner looked at each other and smiled, and then Rock nodded to Zach next to him. Zach held his head high and opened the restaurant door. Mumu had been waiting outside the door.
"Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Mumu from the Glory Castle Army. It's a pleasure to meet you all -" Mumu had just finished introducing himself when he was interrupted by a loud shout.
"Damn bastard, go to hell -" A German officer who accompanied Erich von Falkenhayn to see Rock suddenly picked up the knife on the table and lunged at Mumu. p>
Fortunately, when entering the Glory Castle, Erich von Falkenhayn and his entourage were disarmed, otherwise Mumu would not dare to walk on the road.
"Stop!"
"Don't move!"
"Put down the knife——"
Immediately there were countless sharp scoldings in the banquet hall, and the surrounding guards took out their guns and pointed them at the German officer holding a table knife. If Rock and Sidney Milner hadn't been a little close to the German officer, they might have been there by now.
Someone shot.
All eyes are focused on Mumu.
Mumu actually wears a pistol, but when dealing with German officers, Mumu obviously has no need to use a pistol.
When the German officer rushed over, Mumu stepped aside, then took a step forward and punched the German officer hard on the neck.
The German officer didn't react at all and was knocked unconscious to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm not used to other people talking to me -" Mumu was also very cold and clapped her hands as if nothing had happened. Shi Shiran walked to sit down opposite Erich von Falkenhayn, and smoothly
Tuck a napkin into your collar.
It's just that this action is really not very standard, but it is this kind of roughness and informality that fully expresses Mumu's toughness.
Erich von Falkenhayn looked at Mumu with a calm gaze, but the hand holding the wine glass was simply trembling, because it was so hard that the veins were exposed and the joints turned white.
"General Falkenhayn, I've been looking at you for a long time -" Mumu was also very calm. The German officer just now was lying on the ground. Mumu didn't care at all. He was as relaxed as swatting a mosquito to death.
"General Mumu, hello -" Erich von Falkenhayn finally calmed down, put down his cup, took off his napkin and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, looking at Mumu with a complicated look.
Rock said that Nyasaland has nothing to do with the Glory Castle troops, but Mumu actually appeared directly in the Glory Castle in Ulysses, which is enough to prove the relationship between Nyasaland and the Glory Castle troops.
But Erich von Falkenhayn cannot use this as an excuse to accuse Nyasaland. This time Erich von Falkenhayn's visit to Ulysses is confidential. If his whereabouts are really exposed, then everyone
Everyone knows that the German army in Tanganyika could no longer maintain the situation in Tanganyika, and it was William II who was ultimately embarrassed.
"Let me tell you straight, General Falkenhayn, if you want to cease the war, then there is the current actual occupied area as the dividing line. The troops of Fort Glory nominally obey the leadership of Tanganyika, but the Tanganyika government cannot interfere with Glory.
The specific affairs of the Fort Glory troops." Mumu still saved face for Erich von Falkenhayn, otherwise the Glory Fort troops would now be qualified to demand independence.
"Impossible, the Gloryburg rebels have no right to negotiate with Tanganyika. You must first lay down your arms, and then we can discuss how to deal with the Gloryburg rebels." Erich von Falkenhayn did not agree.
To give in, regardless of whether Mumu agreed to this request, Erich von Falkenhayn first expressed his attitude.
