If it is to deal with criminals, then Roque does not need too many manpower. After all, criminals appear in small groups. To deal with them, it is not expensive to deal with them. Roque can't even look down on the Boers, let alone the obstructive Indians.
people.
It's different when escorting supplies to the front line. To deal with the Boer guerrillas who are good at attacking railways, the more manpower the better. If possible, Rock even wants to transfer all the police into the commando team.
But that is obviously impossible. August Russell can make it as convenient as possible for Henry to a certain extent, but he will not compromise without a bottom line. The size of the commando team is limited to 120 people, and there is no one from the regular army.
There are many people in the company.
"We need to send enough logistics supplies to Dordrecht, which is closest to Ladysmith, before February 25th. The attack on the eastern front will start from Dordrecht." Henry looked at the map and asked
Rock introduced that he did not realize at all that he had leaked the military plan of the British Army on the Eastern Front.
"If you want to send it to Dordrecht, isn't it closer from Durban? Why start from Cape Town?" Rock wanted to be lazy. Ladysmith is 200 kilometers from Durban and 1,200 kilometers from Cape Town.
This is to sacrifice the near for the far.
Henry said nothing and rolled his eyes at Roark.
Rock understood immediately. Even a former trading dog could see it. Could the generals in the expeditionary force headquarters also see it?
The Expeditionary Force Headquarters did this on purpose. It is more convenient to travel by sea from Cape Town to Durban, but if you take the railway, you will have to face attacks from Boer guerrillas. Don't the generals at the headquarters know this?
No, they know, but maybe that's what they want to see!
"Well, if we have to go by rail, then I need some Maxims and armored trains." Rock wanted to be as prepared as possible.
"Yes, there are plenty of Maxims in the warehouse, including armored trains. But, can you use Maxims?" Henry was a little curious. Maxims are different from Lee Enfield and require strict training before they can use them skillfully.
"Haha, don't worry, you may not know the training programs of Huayong Camp." Rock is not worried about this problem. Not only everyone in Huayong Camp is a sharpshooter, but they are also familiar with Maxim. Rock has seen Chinese
The police information does not include the newly recruited Chinese police officers. Among the previous Chinese police officers, four of them had received machine gun training.
Unexpectedly, the Huayong Battalion is so awesome. In addition to light weapons training, the Huayongs also need to receive machine gun training, riding training, combat training, etc. Low-level officers like Rock are also issued sabers.
Well, it's just that when leaving Huayong Camp, Luo Ke and the others turned in all their sabers, otherwise it would be quite commemorative.
"Well, leave the equipment to me and I will coordinate it." Henry also wanted to go all out and go to the battlefield. The Boers would not hold back.
"One more thing, if we deliver supplies to the front line, what will happen to the security area we are now responsible for?" Roque is reluctant to part with the rich dock. He wants to be promoted and make money. There is no conflict between the two.
How to get promoted with money?
"What to do -" Henry was reluctant to part with it. Rock was not stingy. Henry could get about 100 pounds of "filial piety" from Rock every week. This was not a small amount. Excluding bonuses, it was Henry's normal salary.
Twenty times: "How about - leave it to Stanley or Rahul temporarily?"
As police sergeants who are both commandos, if the commando team goes to the front line, Stanley and Rahul will also go with them.
If it's because of the dock business, Henry can keep either Stanley or Rahul, but Rock can't. If Rock doesn't go with Henry, Henry would rather resign.
"No, as the size of the commando team expands, the number of sergeants should also be increased. Find a way to select another sergeant from the existing commandos." Roque will not let others get involved in his territory, and he is most at ease with his own people.
Besides, the police department now has more than 100 Chinese-American police officers. With only Rock, a Chinese-American police chief, he is a bit lonely. Rock needs to support more Chinese-American police officers, even if the chief is the glass ceiling for Chinese-American police officers.
Rock also needs as many Chinese-American police chiefs as possible.
"Who do you want to choose?" Henry is not surprised, nor does he object. Only by satisfying Rock, Rock will do his best, and Henry can escape this disaster.
There is no way to avoid it, the gods and horses are just floating clouds.
"Anton, he killed the last rebel, and he deserves it." Roque already had a candidate in mind. Regardless of his qualifications or ability, Anton was very suitable.
"Okay, I'll go find the director tomorrow." Henry felt very urgent. He was about to set off, and he had to arrange these things as soon as possible.
In the evening, Rock found Anton and told Anton the good news.
To Rock's surprise, Anton was not very happy after hearing the news. He squatted on the steps at the door of the dormitory and smoked a whole cigarette before Anton sighed: "Forget it Rock, I can't be a cigarette."
Sheriff, let Luo Yi do it. Luo is quick at work and has a keen eye for things. He is now more famous than me, so it is more suitable for Luo Yi to be the Sheriff."
From this perspective, Luo Yi is indeed more suitable than Anton. After all, Luo Yi was born in the market and must have good eyesight, otherwise he would not be alive today.
What's more, Luo Yi's performance during the caning was impressive. Even the British had to admit that Luo Yi looked thin, but he was very powerful. Not to mention the Indians, they
The way he looked at Luo Yi was similar to the way he looked at Luo Ke, both were a little scared.
"Think carefully about Anton, the opportunity is rare." Roque did not force it, but only reminded Anton not to miss the opportunity. If he misses this time, he doesn't know whether it will be the year of the monkey or the horse next time.
"I know the opportunity is rare, but we will go to the battlefield in a few days. On the battlefield, I am more useful than Luo Yi." Anton usually has a procrastination in doing things, but he can still handle it at critical times: "We at Huayong Camp are also of the same generation.
Not as good as the previous generation, the last batch of Huayong, although it was a bit miserable, only you and me were corporals, this batch is even worse, there is not a single corporal, they are all privates, and they are all new recruits, they don't wet their pants when they hear the sound of cannons.
That’s pretty good.”
Rock has been busy seeking benefits from the bureau these days and has not yet come into contact with the new Chinese police officers. Anton knows the new Chinese police officers quite well.
"Okay, just think about it carefully. Going to the battlefield is not necessarily a bad thing. For other people, the battlefield is a Shura field. For us, the battlefield is a cornucopia." Rock is really not worried, not because he is a time traveler.
It's because Rock understands the fighting power of Huayong.
