Chapter Eighty-Six: The Aristocrats

A hoof kicks to death, it's too cheap for it.

Martin was a good hand in this regard, Roque only drew the first whip, and then Martin took over Roque's work, a horsewhip flew up and down, and it didn't take much effort to roll the turban all over the ground, and it was bruised all over his body.

The ugly tent is finally gone.

If Rahul hadn't arrived in a hurry, Roque could have watched Martin beat the turban to death.

"Chief—sir." Rahul's face was a little darker, and after seeing the rank of Inspector on Roque's chest, Rahul's face was darker than the sun's.

Did the sun provoke you?

"Got your head right? Uh, no, you broke your arm. "Roque doesn't need to disguise now, and he starts a group mockery when it's time to taunt.

On the eve of the assault team's departure, Rahul became a deserter under the pretext that his arm was broken, and was thrown into the city of cowards as a guard.

It's interesting, putting aside the stance, the Boers who dared to go to the Transvaal Republic and the Orange Free State were absolutely brave, but now the families of the warriors are locked up in the city of cowards, and the guards are deserters -

This arrangement of the British, well, is very interesting.

"Yes sir, my arm is already healed." Rahul began to get into shape, as if it was something to be proud of if his arm was in good shape.

Mr!

It's a really wonderful feeling.

"Let your men remember who you are, that you are a police officer, not a damn rapist." Roque didn't talk nonsense to Rahul, threw down a sentence and turned to leave.

"That's it?" On the way back, Anton still felt furious.

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

Those damned rapists, they are more hateful than those thieves and robbers, if there is really a physical need, the port district has a red light district, it doesn't cost much, and it can prosper the economy, but those rapists use this extreme means to achieve their goals, which will leave a lifelong shadow on the victims, and even cause a devastating blow, if they can, Roque would like to hope that the colonial authorities will legislate to characterize rape as an extreme crime, and catch the rapists and shoot them all.

"How is that possible!" Roque will definitely not let go of that big turban like this, including Rahul, Roque will not let him go, in the past, Roque was not at the level enough, so he could only stay away, but now that Roque has a certain ability, then Roque must have to do something.

Back in Cape Town, Roque immediately went to Henry and went with him to meet Auguste Russell.

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

"Damn bastards, they don't have the slightest glory and pride in being a policeman, throw people into Robben Island and find a few people to serve him well." August Russell gritted his teeth, if the act of breaking his arm and becoming a deserter was barely acceptable, it was too hateful to commit a blatant murder in broad daylight.

Speaking of deserters, Rahul's cowardly behavior is not uncommon, otherwise Stellenbosch would not be called the "City of Cowards", one can imagine how many cowards there are.

After the outbreak of the First World War, by the end of 1914, there were 6 nobles of the House of Lords, 16 sons of Barons, 95 sons of Barons and 82 sons of Barons.

Throughout World War I, 20 nobles of the House of Lords, 49 heirs of the nobles of the House of Lords, and many more children of the nobility were killed in battle.

Eton College in the United Kingdom is centered on the children of the nobility, and among the 5,679 Eton College students who participated in the war, the casualty rate was as high as 45%, far exceeding the participation rate and casualty rate of any other social group, and many of the first heirs of the nobility died in battle, and one tenth of the family heirs of the 558 families with more than 3,000 acres of land were killed in battle.

It should be emphasized that adult men between the ages of 18 and 35 account for about 30% of the total population, and if you exclude the heirs of the nobility who did not participate in the war, then this proportion will be even greater.

After the Second World War, the Junker aristocracy in Germany largely disappeared, and of the 8,800 Junker soldiers who came from noble families who participated in the war, 6,400 died on the battlefield, 500 committed suicide after the war, and 500 died in labor camps.

This is why the aristocracy is respected, it is by no means three generations to achieve a nobleman, the aristocracy is not cultivated, it is exchanged for brave sacrifice, if there is no "chivalry" in the bones, ten generations can not achieve a nobleman, there is no "chivalry" in the bones, and the family inheritance of a hundred generations will only be considered a nouveau riche.

They deserve to be respected.

Relatively speaking, those cowards really deserve it.

"We can't let that happen, we need to send a reliable person to run the camp." Henry, as deputy commissioner, now has the right to make recommendations.

"You look at it, I only have one request, from now on, this kind of thing, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely must not happen again!" August Russell thought more about the fact that after the outbreak of the Boer War, many countries sent military observers to the Cape, many of them in Cape Town, and if this kind of thing was known to those military observers, it would become an international scandal.

Is it really a shameless British Empire?

Don't be funny, the second Boer War was because Britain wanted to regain face, for which Britain paid 220 million pounds, even if all the gold in the Rand gold mine was dug up, it is estimated that it will not be able to return the original amount.

Leaving August Russell's office, Henry also had a little headache: "What to do?" ”

Henry really didn't know what to do, the camp was not just a matter of management, there were many other problems, and Henry couldn't watch Roque jump into the fire pit.

Yes, for Henry, the camp was a fire pit.

"What to do? I'll go! "Roque took the initiative to jump, your arsenic, my honey, very fragrant.

"Are you really going? No, no, no, you can't go, know what the mortality rate is in the camps? Last month, twenty percent. "Henry was terrified, twenty percent was the concept, one in five people died within a month, and the real problem in the camp was not management, but disease, hunger, and danger everywhere.

"I know." Twenty percent was fine, as in October 1901, the death rate in the concentration camps in Orange was forty percent.

"You know?" Henry was skeptical.

"Yes, I know." Roque admitted that the death rate of refugees would be high if a coward like Rahul was the caretaker of the refugee camp, and that Roque was going to Stellenbosch, not only for the vineyards, but also for the poor women and children.

They are innocent.
