Chapter 86 Nobles

 Kick it to death, it’s too cheap.

Martin is a good player in this regard. Rock only whipped him for the first time, and then Martin took over Rock's work. A riding crop flew up and down, and in a short time, the turban was rolled on the ground, covered with bruises.

The ugly tent is finally gone.

If Rahul hadn't arrived in a hurry, Rock could have watched Martin beat the hooded man to death.

"Sir-sir." Rahul's face was a little dark. After seeing the inspector title on Roque's chest, Rahul's face was darker than the sun's face.

Is the sun messing with you?

"Your head is healed? Uh, no, you broke your arm." Rock doesn't need to pretend now. When it's time to taunt, he will start a group taunt.

On the eve of the commando's departure, Rahul used his broken arm as an excuse to desert, and was thrown into the City of Cowards as a guard.

This is very interesting. Regardless of their position, those Boers who dared to go to the Transvaal Republic and the Orange Free State were definitely brave, but now the families of the brave men are imprisoned in the City of Cowards, and the people responsible for guarding them are deserters.

——

This arrangement made by the British is, well, very interesting.

"Yes sir, my arm is healed." Rahul started to get into the mood, as if having his arm healed was something to be proud of.

Sir!

This feeling is really wonderful.

"Let your men remember your identities. You are police officers, not damn rapists." Rock didn't talk nonsense to Rahul. He just turned around and left.

"Just forget it?" On the way back, Anton still felt furious.

This kind of thing would be unbearable for anyone with a sense of justice.

Those damn rapists, they are more hateful than those thieves and robbers. If you really have physiological needs, there are red light districts in the port area. You don’t have to spend much money and you can still prosper the economy. But those rapists use this extreme method.

To achieve their goals, this will leave a lifelong shadow on the victim and even cause a devastating blow. If possible, Rock hopes that the colonial authorities can legislate rape as an extreme crime. After catching the rapist, all

Shooting.

"How is that possible?" Roque will definitely not let that big turban go. Not even Rahul, Roque will let him go. In the past, Roque was not of a high level, so he could only stay away from him. Now Roque has gained a certain level.

ability, then Rock must do something.

Returning to Cape Town, Rock immediately went to Henry and went with Henry to meet August Russell.

Now Rock finally has his own seat in front of August Russell.

"Damn bastards, they don't have any honor or pride as police officers. They throw a person into Robben Island and find a few people to take good care of him." August Russell gritted his teeth. If he broke his arm and became a deserter, this behavior was still unacceptable.

It is barely acceptable, but it would be too abominable to commit murder in broad daylight.

Speaking of deserters, cowardly behavior like Rahul is not uncommon, otherwise Stellenbosch would not be called the "city of cowards". You can imagine how many cowards there are.

Speaking of this, we have to admit that the "chivalry" pursued by the West does have a reason for existence. After the outbreak of World War I, by the end of 1914, the UK had 6 nobles in the House of Lords, 16 barons, and 95 members of the House of Lords.

Sons of nobles and 82 sons of barons were killed in battle.

Throughout World War I, a total of 20 Lords, 49 Lords heirs and more noble children died in battle.

Eton College in the United Kingdom is centered on children of aristocrats. Among the 5,679 Eton College students who participated in the war, the casualty rate was as high as 45%, far exceeding the war participation and casualty rates of any other social group. Many first heirs of the nobility died in the war.

Among the 558 aristocratic families with more than 3,000 acres of land, one-tenth of the family heirs died in the war.

What needs to be emphasized is that generally adult men aged 18 to 35 account for about 30% of the total population. If you exclude those heirs of nobles who did not participate in the war, this proportion will be even greater.

After World War II, the Junker aristocracy in Germany basically disappeared. Among the 8,800 soldiers from Junker aristocratic families who participated in the war, 6,400 were killed on the battlefield, 500 committed suicide after the war, and 500 died

Labor camp.

This is why nobility is respected. It is not three generations that make a nobleman. Nobility is not cultivated, but earned with brave sacrifice. If there is no "chivalry" in one's bones, ten generations cannot make a nobleman. There is no "chivalry" in one's bones.

"Chivalry", if the family has been passed down for a hundred generations, you will only be considered a nouveau riche.

You deserve to be respected.

Relatively speaking, those cowards really deserve what they deserve.

"We can't let this happen. We should send a reliable person to manage the refugee camp." As the deputy director, Henry now has the right to make suggestions.

"It's up to you. I have only one request. From now on, this kind of thing, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot happen again!" August Russell thought more. After the Boer War broke out, many countries asked

Cape Town has sent military observers, many of whom are in Cape Town. If such a thing were known to those military observers, it would become an international scandal.

Do you really think that the British Empire has no face?

Don't be ridiculous, the Second Boer War was because Britain wanted to regain its face. For this reason, Britain paid 220 million pounds. Even if all the gold in the Rand Gold Mine was dug out, it probably would not be able to recover its money.

After leaving August Russell's office, Henry also had a headache: "What should I do?"

Henry really doesn't know what to do. The refugee camp is not just a management problem, but there are many other problems. Henry can't just watch Rock jump into the fire pit.

Yes, for Henry, the refugee camp is a pit of fire.

"What should I do? I'll go!" Luo Ke took the initiative to jump, your arsenic, my honey, it smells very good.

"Do you really want to go? No, no, no, you can't go. Do you know what the death rate is in the refugee camp? Last month, it was 20%." Henry looked scared. What is the concept of 20%? Five

One in three people died within a month. The real problem in the refugee camps was not management, but disease, hunger, and dangers everywhere.

"I know." Rock was not surprised. Twenty percent was not bad. In October 1901, the death rate in the Orange concentration camp was as high as forty percent.

"You know?" Henry wondered.

"Yes, I know." Rock said calmly. Let a coward like Rahul be the guard of the refugee camp. The mortality rate of refugees will definitely remain high. Rock is going to Stellenbosch not just for those vineyards.

, and for those poor women and children.

They are innocent.

***The author has something to say***

I want to ask for a collection. I think since the brothers saw this, they should have already collected it, so forget it. As a Buddhist salted fish, the fish head has no desires and no desires——
