The Indian police employed by the British were all Sikhs, mainly from the Punjab region of India.
Sikhism is a worldly religion in India. Turbans, steel hoops, daggers and shorts are the main characteristics of Sikhs. Compared with India's caste system and secular customs, Sikhism advocates equality for all and precepts and precepts.
British values, so the British recruited police from Sikhs, and they were widely used in colonial management around the world. For example, the red-headed Asan mentioned by Li De was an Indian policeman hired by the British Concession in the Qing Dynasty.
The same goes for Cape Town. In 1900, the total population of the United Kingdom was only 37.5 million. Compared with the colonies spread all over the world, the United Kingdom simply did not have enough manpower to manage it. It was like a greedy snake that was full of food and had to rely on the outside population.
Auxiliary management, obedient Indians are obviously the best choice for British people.
Of course, compared to Indians, the British actually have better choices. After all, India only has 280 million people, while the Qing Dynasty has 470 million Chinese, so in terms of population ratio, the Chinese are obviously
With greater potential, from Huayong Camp to Police is a series of attempts by the British.
Relatively speaking, Rock does not think that the British trust Indians very much. Hiring Indian police is just a solution that the British have no choice about. If Rock and other Chinese policemen can show greater value, Rock believes that they can be used in the British police force.
People there gain more trust than Indians.
"I know what Kunal did was not honorable, but you do not have the right to beat Kunal. Fighting between colleagues is strictly prohibited, so you must pay the price for your presumption."
Sharma did not help Kunal, but simply wanted to teach Rock a lesson. The Indians also despised Kunal's escape behavior. No one wanted their partner to escape alone when in danger.
Of course, this does not mean that Sharma approves of Roque's behavior. Just as Sharma said, even if Kunal's behavior is disgusting, Roque should not punish him. In other words, as a Chinese,
Rock cannot attack Indians. This is the key for Sharma to teach Rock a lesson.
When it comes to beating a dog, it depends on the owner. Indians have always regarded themselves as the most loyal dogs of the British. Even if they were to be beaten, they could only be beaten by the British. Rock couldn't complain about this.
"Sergeant Sharma, that was not a beating, it was a special way of greeting Kunal and I. Kunal was so happy to see me safe and sound that he fainted with excitement." Rock changed his mind.
After all, Sharma is of a higher rank than Rock, and the face should be given. If Sharma is smart, he will not pester him endlessly, otherwise the matter will become a big deal, and the face of all Indian policemen will not be good.
.
Perhaps Sharma didn't expect Roark to be so difficult to deal with, so Sharma looked at Roark intently for a while, then nodded sullenly: "Okay, I will keep an eye on you, you'd better not
Make a mistake, or you'll go back to where you came from, and your compatriots, by the way, your braids are really ugly."
Where did this start?
Rock almost laughed out loud. You, a Sikh, laugh at the ugly braids of Chinese people, but you don’t even look at what is wrapped in your turban. Sikhs generally have long hair, so they wear turbans every day, and their clothing is more and more beautiful.
Grand, the more turbans on the head, the more spectacular it looks. From a distance, it looks like a person carrying a jar on his head. No matter how ugly it is, can it be uglier than you?
Of course, what is ugly here also depends on the person and their habits. Rock thinks Sharma's turban is ugly, but Sharma doesn't think so. On the contrary, Sharma thinks Chinese braids are ugly, and even Rock himself thinks so.
Fortunately, Rock doesn't have this problem now. Because he needs to receive treatment, Rock's hair was shaved in the hospital, which saves Rock a lot of trouble.
After saying the harsh words, Sharma turned around and left with a dozen of his men. This made Rock dumbfounded. With such a big battle, he thought he was going to have a big fight, but in the end, just to say harsh words, why bother?
!
"It scared me so much that I was so scared that I couldn't help but take action just now." Anton looked at the backs of Sharma and others and let out a long breath, then turned to look at Rock in surprise: "Why do you speak foreign languages?"
?”
"Don't you know how? We've all been studying for so long." Rock randomly found an excuse.
"It is true that I have learned it, but -" Anton couldn't explain the weird thing. He has learned it. People like Anton and Luo Ke have learned English before in Huayong Camp, but it is obvious that Luo Ke's English
The level of fluency has exceeded Anton's understanding, which makes Anton puzzled. In other words, it was probably the same year, He Ruxiu?
"Anton, we probably won't be able to return to the Qing Dynasty in the future, so let's learn English well." Rock didn't want to explain too much. To gain the trust of the British, we must first solve the language problem, otherwise we won't understand what we say. They are British.
Why should I trust you?
After chatting all the way back to the dormitory, Kunal was dragging a big bag out with difficulty. It seemed that Rock's words were indeed carried out by Kunal. Rock looked on coldly and had no intention of helping. On the contrary, it was Anton.
Very surprised.
"This -" Anton's partner is also an Indian. Of course, he knows the virtues of Indians. Cleaning is absolutely impossible. Under normal circumstances, as long as a Chinese and an Indian partner, the Chinese are responsible for such things, and the Indians are responsible for such things.
Even if they are deliberately disgusting people, they can be content with it no matter how bad the environment is. If the Chinese can see through it, then the Chinese can also feel at ease, but if they can't see through it -
"It's nothing surprising. The room is too messy. Kunal took the initiative to clean it. I have just been discharged from the hospital. I am very weak and not suitable for manual labor." Roque did not feel uncomfortable at all. He treated Indians as he should.
Have a clear attitude, otherwise Indians will easily get into trouble.
Of course Anton definitely doesn’t think so. Shit’s body is weak and Shit is not suitable for manual labor. When Anton and Roque had a meal together just now, Anton watched Roque eat about a pound of beef and a plate of salad.
A large piece of bread and a cup of coffee, if you can eat so much and still be weak, how can you eat a cow when you are strong?
It must be said that when Indians are facing a crisis, their hygiene awareness is still very good. Kunal has cleaned the room very neatly, the windows are bright and clean, the air is fresh, and the garbage on the table and the dirty clothes on Rock's bed are gone.
, the floor was obviously swept and then mopped, and by Rock's standards there was nothing wrong with it.
"Very good, Kunal, you'd better clean up your personal hygiene. Take a shower now, change into clean clothes, and keep it up. You will thank me for your good hygiene habits in the future." In Anton's view,
Roque's expression was very hateful now, but for some reason, Anton felt a secret joy growing in his heart.
