665 Impunity
For Europe, Persia and the Ottoman Empire and even the Sultanate of Najd can be called the "Middle East", the Balkans are the "Near East", and the Qing and East Indies are the "Far East".
The concept was popular before the First World War, but after the First World War, it gradually blurred, and by the Second World War, the Near and Middle East had begun to blur and become less distinct.
After the end of the First Balkan War, many people predicted that the Balkans would become a powder keg for Europe, and that the dispute between Southern Africa and Tanganyika was not a matter at all compared to the Balkans, and no one cared about the colonies of Africa, and the fate of Africa depended entirely on the political situation in Europe, and no one cared about the decisions of Africans.
"The Balkans are back, this time Serbia and Bulgaria, they both want more territory, so they can't wait, and now that the Ottoman Empire has joined in, the situation is really complicated." Roque couldn't make it clear in a few words, ethnicity, language, religion, belief, the two major military blocs, there were too many reasons for war to break out in the Balkans.
"What can we do?" Ade gets straight to the core.
"Khuzestan is part of our goal, and the umbrella company has determined that Khuzestan has at least a billion barrels of oil, so we have to control the whole of Khuzestan and not allow anyone to set foot in it." Roque's data is mixed, and Khuzestan is indeed a billion barrels of oil, and more than that, but in this day and age, geologists cannot give a definitive answer.
However, this did not affect Roque's lobbying of Ade, and Ade was also extremely surprised by this data.
"Billion? Are you sure it's not a million? Ade couldn't accept this fact.
"Yes, it's a billion, there are at least a billion barrels of oil in the ground in Huzestan, maybe not more, the oil reserves that have been discovered now are not even one percent, and if we lose this opportunity, then we will not be able to make up for our mistakes in the next ten years or twenty years and a hundred years." Roque will definitely not let go, no matter what is behind the oil, Roque will not let go of Huzestan.
There is one thing that must be explained, at the beginning of the twentieth century, the popularity of electric vehicles is higher than that of fuel vehicles, whether it is battery life or acceleration, electric vehicles have a huge advantage over fuel vehicles, so why the next electric vehicles disappeared, and fuel vehicles are popular, the reason is really unclear in one sentence or two.
"Then don't hesitate, Huzestan is now under the control of the Umbrella Company, you have to give more support to the Umbrella, you must completely, completely, leave no remnants to occupy Huzestan, and give no one else any chance." Ade is decisive, if this is the expansion of the umbrella private, Ade can still turn a blind eye, but now that it involves southern Africa, Ade has to go all out.
Some things really can't be said in too much detail, the description is too detailed is colonial expansion, propaganda violence, the description is not painful and there is no logical aura of God, the United States launched a war on the grounds of weapons of mass destruction, and the whole world is still ineffective, when Russia annexed Kashmir, NATO was heartbroken, but what can it do?
The only thing that determines the direction of the times is strength!
In the twentieth century, Ade understood this!
"The position of the umbrella company in Khuzestan is unshakable, and now the problem is legal reason, and if we want to completely occupy Khuzestan, we need the legal provisions recognized by the whole world." Roque is also very helpless, born twenty years early, these problems are not a problem, not now, the residual poison of the Berlin Conference is too great.
"Then wait a little longer - what do you think the federal government is preparing to send troops to North Africa to keep the peace?" Ade must have consulted Roque on this issue.
The so-called "peacekeeping" is probably similar to the future peacekeeping force, but in Roque's memory, at the beginning of the twentieth century, it seems that the "peacekeeping force" has not yet appeared.
"North Africa is also part of Africa, although the Treaty of Cairo has been signed, but the war in North Africa is not over, Tripoli and Cyrenaica, the Ottoman guerrillas are still fighting with the regular army of the Kingdom of Italy, last month the Kingdom of Italy asked us to send peacekeeping troops, what do you think?" Ade threw the puzzle to Roque.
"Peacekeeping?" Roque simply does not believe that the purpose of peacekeeping forces in the 21st century is not to maintain peace, it is too naïve.
"What are you thinking, we simply don't have the right to send troops." Ade is also very bitter, Southern Africa is like a castrated samurai, and there is no one in ten in combat power.
"Heh, there's nothing else to say." Roque is the standard not to see the rabbit and not to scatter the eagle.
"Haven't you always been working to expand your influence in Southern Africa? Then we need to make the most of all the opportunities. "Ade is not a prophet of history, but a judgment based entirely on existing conditions.
"Well, I'm fully cooperative—" Roque retorted, and what was there to argue with the Europeans.
First of all, we must explain that at the moment of the arms race, there are some minor problems in the colonial forces that can be ignored.
Southern Africa has been making a lot of moves in recent times, but in fact, in terms of the entire Commonwealth, Southern Africa is not excessive.
Gandhi has now returned to India to launch the so-called "non-violent non-cooperation" campaign, which is the focus of the British government, and even the war in the Balkans is beginning to become insignificant by comparison.
"Non-violent non-cooperation" is interpreted in the vernacular, "I will no longer obey your orders, but I will not use violence to confront you." ”
To put it bluntly, if you ask me to build a road, I won't go, but if you want to cut off my head because of this, then you can do whatever you want, anyway, we Hinduism believe that there is an afterlife, maybe you will become a Brahmin in the next life, and you will no longer have to endure such exploitation.
This is the journey of the Indian people, there is no resistance, there is no cooperation, I will do it like this.
In the past half month, the British Parliament has been discussing every day how to deal with India's "non-violent non-cooperation", but unfortunately there is still no unanimous opinion.
Roque's side is much simpler, the Indians actually have very low requirements, as long as they are well fed and do not starve to death, but the most important thing in southern Africa is food, so the humanitarian team in southern Africa is all over the British East Indies in a short period of time.
"The Indians have shortcomings, but they are not hopeless, our rules are strict, the same mistakes, no one has two chances." Thanks to the University of Nyasaland and the Johannesburg School of Medicine, Roque is now full of confidence.
Last month, the British government held a field medical exercise in London, where teams from southern Africa won 10 first places and 11 second places in all 11 events.
Roque was very dissatisfied with this result, and won ten first places in eleven events, and the only one he lost was the most important field medical treatment, which made Roque really unwilling.
If you only count the investment in teaching in recent years, maybe Oxford and Cambridge are not as much as the price paid by southern Africa, Roque knows that there is a huge gap between the new Johannesburg Medical School and Oxford and Cambridge, which have been established for a hundred years, so he has spared no effort in investment, not only to introduce traditional Chinese medicine to the Johannesburg Medical School, but also to hire various scientific research talents to come to southern Africa with high salaries.
The Nobel Prize in Medicine for the previous decade, four are now in Southern Africa.
Nyasaland, to be exact.
"I have no objection to sending peacekeeping troops to North Africa, but the situation in North Africa cannot be solved by one or two peacekeeping forces." Roque was not optimistic about North Africa, another time and space, until the outbreak of World War II, Italy did not completely conquer North Africa.
"Locke, if we're going to send a peacekeeping force, then I want you to personally lead the team to North Africa." Ade thinks further, Southern Africa now has a strong military force, but it still needs a leading figure.
This man is irrefutable, and it must be Roque.
"You're going to let me go to North Africa?" Roque was really surprised.
"You're not going to go—am I going?" Ade was silent for a long time, then looked up at Roque full of hope.
"Okay - I'll go!" Roque has no extra choice, Ade has already talked about this, if Roque doesn't go again-
It's really a blessing and a curse.
A week later, Roque's peacekeeping force departed.
Probably in the world at present, this peacekeeping force led by Roque is probably the most well-equipped, they are equipped with armored vehicles, self-propelled guns, mortars, grenade launchers, and a variety of weapons, the earliest can even date back to the early years of the Ming Dynasty.
"Don't get entangled with them, march on Khuzestan at once, we must rush to Ahvaz before Reza Khan's troops." Reza Khan did not yet know that his Guards had been infiltrated by the umbrella.
Many famous intelligence agencies in history, Britain's MI7, Israel's Mossad, Soviet Russia's Swallow, and the umbrella of southern Africa, officially these unscrupulous robbers in the name of peace, have plunged our world into fire.
is still the same sentence, there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and Roque is not surprised, Britain has now begun to monitor Roque in all directions, but no evidence has been found,
That's also impunity
