Bullard, who is mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the Southern African federal government, is very capable. In just three days, a steady stream of news came to Roque.
The first is the issue of guns. Rock should first make sure that the heavy machine guns used by the gangsters did not leak out from official channels, and then start investigating the source of the heavy machine guns.
In fact, this problem is not complicated. The Cape and Transvaal and other places have always had very strict management of heavy weapons. It is unlikely that gangsters can obtain weapons such as heavy machine guns from the Cape and Transvaal.
What's more, it's not like just anyone can use heavy machine guns proficiently. Even in the army, there are not many soldiers who can use heavy machine guns proficiently. Under normal circumstances, they can use heavy machine guns proficiently.
At the very least, he is a sergeant. In the current military system of the Southern African federal government, he can become a professional soldier.
So in this way, when people and weapons are combined, the answer is ready to come out.
So all investigations centered around Orange.
The first is the origin of the heavy machine gun.
The shell casings left at the scene showed that the bullets used in the heavy machine guns were produced in Germany and were of similar origin to the heavy machine gun bullets used by the Boer Allied Forces during the Boer War. According to information provided by the Orange State, during the Boer War, the Boer Allied Forces at least
German Southwest Africa received more than 50 heavy machine guns, including the "Pop Cannon" that caused the expeditionary force to suffer a lot, all from German Southwest Africa.
Viewed this way, it is understandable that after the Boer War, Rock repeatedly targeted German Southwest Africa and Tanganyika.
It’s not that I won’t report it, the time has not yet come.
Most of the heavy machine guns obtained by the Boer coalition forces from German Southwest Africa were destroyed during the Boer War, but there are still more than a dozen missing.
Rock has enough reason to suspect that the heavy machine gun used by the gangsters was probably secretly hidden by someone or an organization after the Boer War.
In view of the fact that most of the information during the Boer War is missing, it is impossible to verify the whereabouts of this batch of weapons, so the subsequent investigation will focus on people.
In Orange, there were about 45,000 members of the former Boer Alliance, among whom less than a hundred were proficient in using heavy machine guns. After all, during the Boer War, the machine gun positions of the Boer Alliance were the focus of the expeditionary force's firepower.
Therefore, heavy machine gunners have the highest casualty rate on the battlefield. Those who can successfully survive until the end of the war are all veterans.
There are only about 60 of these people still living in Orange, and nearly 40 of them are employees of the Orange State Government. Only 19 remain outside the state capital.
Personal.
Among these nineteen people, ten were serving their sentences in August Prison, six were unable to take care of themselves due to disabilities, and in the end there were only three suspects left.
Among the three people, a man named Luke Kate was the most suspicious. This man was addicted to alcohol and was drunk all day long. He was also heavily in debt because of his addiction to gambling. Luke Kate's neighbors confirmed that Luke Kate had always been responsible for
He was very dissatisfied with his current situation, and most of the people he interacted with were radical elements from the former Boer coalition. Then three days before the attack, Luke Kate suddenly disappeared. No one knew where Luke Kate had gone.<
/p>
While investigating Orange, the Department of Justice is also conducting self-correction and self-examination.
Since the gangsters clearly know the transfer route of the Ministry of Justice, it means that someone within the Ministry of Justice may have leaked the information. As a result, Tony Spender, the director of the judge's office, was opened for investigation. This fool suddenly had more money in his Rand Bank account recently.
A large amount of money, but Tony Spender could not explain the source of the funds clearly, becoming the first senior official to be fired after the establishment of the Department of Justice.
After Tony Spender was arrested, several senior officials were arrested along Tony Spender's line, and then Samson, the former Boer coalition general who lived in Kimberley and was unemployed at home, surfaced.
"After the Boer War, in accordance with the provisions of the peace negotiations, Samson was relieved of all his duties. However, Samson was obviously unwilling to do so. There were still many Boer radicals gathered around him. After the establishment of the federal government, Samson tried to enter
Ministry of Defense, rejoined the army, but was rejected by the Ministry of Defense. Kimberley confirmed that Samson left Kimberley for Walvis Bay about half a month ago, but Walvis Bay confirmed that Samson did not go to Walvis Bay, but went to Walvis Bay.
Puakana in German Southwest Africa." When Rock reported to Ade, he had already determined that Samson was the instigator behind the attack on the train.
"Are you sure it's Samson?" Ade looked very tired. Southern Africa had just been established and there were so many things to do. Ade was also very busy with his work. Every time he met with Rock, he only had ten
A few minutes.
When Southern Africa was established, there were indeed a lot of former Boer coalition generals who actively wanted to return to the army.
For security reasons, the Ministry of National Defense refused to allow all former Boer coalition generals to return to the army, and was gradually clearing out senior Boer officials in the Southern African Defense Forces, so it was normal for Samson to take risks out of desperation.
However, this also gave Rock an excuse. Rock had previously refused General Boer to join the Ministry of Defense on the pretext that the Ministry of Defense not only did not need to be expanded but needed to be streamlined, which had aroused strong opposition from Louis Botha and Jan Smuts. p>
Now Rock finally has a reason. If people like Samson are allowed to return to the army, it is hard to say whether a civil war will break out in southern Africa in the future.
"Yes, we have combined all the clues. Although we have no direct evidence, only Samson has the ability to organize an attack of this scale. At the end of the Boer War, Samson still led the guerrillas to fight on the front line, so Samson
It is entirely possible that Mussen hid some weapons. The weapons used by the gangsters in this attack have been confirmed to be produced by the German Mauser Arms Manufacturing Co., Ltd. - Oh, at that time, the Mauser Arms Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was not what it is now. At that time, it was
It's called the Royal Arsenal." Although there is no evidence in Rock's hands, the investigation to this point is enough.
At one time, Rock also believed that the truth must be present to solve a case. Now Rock doesn't think so. Ade only gave the Ministry of Justice one month. The truth is really not important. What is important is to be able to give an explanation to the public.
.
As for whether the evidence is sufficient, you can wait until Samson is caught and then add it slowly. Of course, if you can't catch him alive, you can also kill him on the spot. The Ministry of Justice will have the final say at that time.
"Then bring him back, as well as those absconding officials. If they resist during the arrest, I authorize your Ministry of Justice to kill them on the spot without interrogation." Ade was also fast enough to cut the knot, and seemed not to realize it.
In German South-West Africa, the Ministry of Justice of the Southern African Federal Government has no law enforcement power.
There are no extradition regulations between Southern Africa and German Southwest Africa, so how to capture Samson is still a problem.
So Rock didn't say anything.
"What are you waiting for?" Ade asked casually. He had already lowered his head and started organizing documents. It looked like he was about to start working again.
"Samson is hiding in Puakana in Southwest Africa. This town is located near the border between Southwest Africa and the Congo Free State. Let's not talk about whether we have the ability to arrest him abroad. Once the arrest operation starts, Samson will be completely
It is possible to escape into the Congo Free State, and then we will face pressure from both Southwest Africa and the Congo Free State." Roque is not exaggerating the difficulties, Samson is also very smart, knowing that he is about to be exposed, so he escaped early
After entering Southwest Africa, it is said that he has obtained the right to reside in Southwest Africa as a new immigrant, so it is really not easy for the Ministry of Justice to arrest Samson.
The immigration management is like this these days. Not only in German Southwest Africa, but also in Southern Africa, there are also many prisoners who committed crimes in Europe and were then exiled to Southern Africa.
Therefore, on this issue, the attitudes of all colonies around the world are actually similar. Each colony does not care whether the new immigrants have criminal records. As long as they are willing to immigrate, the colonies will accept them with open arms.
Even for German Southwest Africa, the Southwest African government was particularly welcoming to people like Samson. After Samson went to Southwest Africa, he was not only appointed consul and magistrate of Puakana by the Governor-General of Southwest Africa, but also
Moreover, the Governor-General of Southwest Africa also dispatched a company of troops to be stationed in Puakana, which was obviously providing protection for Samson.
"The Ministry of Justice does not have the ability to act abroad, don't you?" Ade seemed casual, but in fact he knew Roque's abilities very well.
For Ade, the existence of Umbrella Company is no secret. India now has Umbrella’s largest overseas branch, and there are also mercenary bases in Nepal. Umbrella Company’s business has expanded to Asia and Europe. In order not to
It is striking that many branches do not even use the name umbrella company.
But Ade must be clear about these situations.
That's why Ade mocked Rock for pretending.
"Okay then -" This is what Rock actually wants. After this incident, Umbrella and Brad will surface one after another. It will be difficult to hide their strength. Rock simply lets Brad and Umbrella
Taking the initiative to expose one's strength, at least for some people, the existence of Umbrella and Brad is a huge deterrent.
In the past, as long as criminals fled abroad, the colonial government in Southern Africa had nothing to do. Similar to the case of Samson, even if the colonial government knew that the Samson people were in Southwest Africa, because there were no extradition regulations, the colonial government could not
There is nothing you can do about Samson.
It will be different in the future. What Roque wants is this deterrent effect. Fleeing abroad does not mean escaping. As long as you dare to break the law and commit crimes, you will have to pay the price no matter where you escape.
