401 Liars

After the Boer War, all the Boer generals, with the exception of Louis Botha and Jan Smuts, were excluded from the colonial government.

Now that the federal government was formed, British influence in southern Africa was fading, and Bloemfontein became the legislative capital of the federal government, the Boers who were at home and unwilling to be left to power were as agitated as sharks that smelled blood.

Schalke Beagle and Biles had a simple request, even if they couldn't return to the military, they wanted to join the Ministry of Defense and contribute to the security of the federal government.

Of course, the last sentence was said by themselves, and Roque definitely didn't believe it, security and the like were all excuses, and it was true that they wanted to regain power.

It's no wonder that Hopkins handed over all the power to Roque, which is actually a very offensive job, and if you don't let the Boers get involved in power, you will become the public enemy of the Boers.

And if the Boers are given access to power, then their demands will increase, and the Ministry of Defense will be as caught up in endless wrangling as the government.

Luo Erke definitely didn't want to see this happen, so Luo Ke resolutely didn't see any of them, and Luo Ke already had an idea for the newly formed Third and Fourth Divisions.

The first is the selection of division commanders, considering the acceptance of whites, the candidates for division commanders of the third and fourth divisions can only be whites, which Ade hinted to Roque.

The positioning of the 3rd and 4th Divisions is different from that of the 1st and 2nd Divisions, and the 1st and 2nd Divisions are integrated divisions with the ability to take the initiative and can be used for overseas operations.

The 3rd and 4th Divisions are only defense forces, responsible for the security of the Cape and Natal respectively, and will not be used for overseas operations, so there will be a big gap between them and the 1st and 2nd Divisions in terms of establishment and equipment.

According to Roque's plan, the 1st and 2nd Divisions would continue to expand, and each division would expand to about 15,000 men.

The Third and Fourth Divisions will only retain about 5,000 men, and the establishment will be mainly infantry and cavalry, and will not be equipped with too many cars and heavy weapons, so the commanders of these two divisions are not important, and they can be used to balance the ethnic ratio within the Wehrmacht.

Although Roque was reluctant to mention the issue of race, in southern Africa, this problem could not be avoided at all, the former Northern Rhodesia Division and the new 1st Cavalry Division were mainly Chinese, and later Roque began to recruit Gurkha mercenaries, and the proportion of Chinese soldiers was gradually decreasing.

In the future, the expansion of the first and second divisions will still be dominated by Gurkha mercenaries, and the proportion of ethnic Chinese will gradually decrease.

It didn't matter if the two new divisions broke out, once a war broke out in southern Africa, Roque did not expect these two forces to be able to turn the tide, as long as these two forces could maintain the stability of Cape and Orange, if war broke out, Roque still trusted the old team of the 1st and 2nd Divisions.

Although Roque refused to be interviewed, Nikola Van Lensberg was not discouraged, and the next morning, Nikola Van Lensburg went to Cecil Rhodes Square in Little Rock, where she gave a public performance.

"Prophet", the performance must be related to the occult, otherwise it would not be possible to show the greatness of the "prophet".

So Nikola Van Lensberg is performing Indian levitation.

The stalk of levitation has been played rotten on the Internet in the 21st century, but in southern Africa at the beginning of the twentieth century, almost no one knew the mystery of it, so Nikola Vanensberg's performance caused a sensation, and even Phyllis knew that there was a "Taoist monk" in Little Rock, and Xiao Si, who witnessed the float performance, was even more convinced, and even wanted to invite Nikella Vanensberg to Rhodesia to retire.

"You saw him float in the air?" Roque didn't believe it at all, and gave Roque a little time to prepare a few steel pipes and a thick suit, and Roque could also perform the so-called levitation technique.

"Of course, at least a thousand people have witnessed this miracle, and almost everyone is talking about it these days, you know, Nikela Van Lensberg is a famous prophet among the Boers, able to predict the future, and knows anything that happens around him, during the Boer War, Nikla Van Lensberg used his magical ability to help the Boer coalition win the victory-" Xiao Si gushed, Roque used to have a hard time understanding, why very simple tricks are fooled, look at the current Xiao Si, Roque finally understood why.

There are too many fools in this world, and there are simply not enough liars.

It is said that Roque asked Luo Yi to go to the Cape Town dock to set up a bureau before, but it was actually a deception.

Now that I think about it, the people who were fooled at that time were also like carp crossing the river-

It can only be said that the current people are really simple.

"Fake, it's just a simple deception-" Roque can only ruthlessly debunk, people like Nikola Vanensberg are actually very dangerous, if Nickra Vanensberg has enough influence, then if you don't pay attention, it will develop into that.

"Locke, you questioned it because you didn't see it with your own eyes, I can understand it, if I didn't believe it before, but I saw it with my own eyes at the time, if I have the chance, I really want to ask Nikella Van Lensberg to perform for you in person, I look forward to your surprised expression at that time." Xiao Si is also very stubborn, it seems that if Roque does not show evidence, Xiao Si will not believe it.

"Wait—" Roque didn't talk nonsense, and raised his hand to call Zack over.

"No, it can't be—" Xiao Si still didn't want to believe it, but his confidence had begun to waver.

It's really that Roque's performance has always been too rebellious, and his position in Xiao Si's heart can also be said to be deep-rooted, and Roque rarely makes mistakes, which has been proven by countless facts.

Zack's efficiency is also high, but in one meal, Zach recreated the "miracle" of Nikola Van Lensberg at Eagle Castle.

"No, Locke, Nikola Vanensberg definitely did it on his own, not with the help of tools." At this time, Xiao Si was no longer defending Nikola Van Lensberg, but defending his own IQ.

If you are deceived by such a simple method, then it is really an insult to your own intelligence, so even if the facts are in front of you, Xiao Si must insist on his faith in Nikola van Lensberg.

"Well, you wait—" Roque wants to completely debunk Nicola Vanensberg's hoax, so he asks Zach to go to Nicola Vanensberg.

When Zach found Nicola Van Lensburg, he was a guest at a wealthy merchant who was said to have paid Nickra Van Lensburg £1,000 for inviting him to perform levitation in public.

It's so easy to make money, and Roque can let Zach go out and make money if he wants.

In other words, Zach's image is also very storytelling.

When Nikola Van Lensberg arrived at Eagle Castle, the props that Zach had used to perform for Smalls were still in place.

Obviously, the moment he saw those props, Nikola Vanensburg's expression was a little panicked.

Little Stowe's gentle and elegant people now look at Nikola Vanensberg's eyes are already fierce and fierce.

This kind of trick, or don't be too loud, just make a fortune quietly, and make a big deal is looking for death, once the scam is exposed, how hard those who touted it at the beginning, how ruthless the means of revenge after the scam is exposed.

Take Xiao Si as an example, Xiao Si now wants to put Nikola Van Lensberg in a sack and throw it into Lake Niasa, but I don't know if Nikola Van Lensberg, the "prophet", foresaw that he would face such an end.

Probably unexpectedly, otherwise Nikola Van Lensberg would have fled by now.

"Come on, Mr. Nikola Van Lensberg, I heard that your levitation technique is amazing, and Mr. Rhodes would like to see it." Roque is very casual, and if Nikola Van Lensberg can perform levitation in public without relying on props, then Roque will admit that Nikella Van Lensberg is really a prophet.

"I'm sorry Lord, but the levitation technique is very taxing for me, I can only perform once a week, and if Mr. Rhodes wants to see it, I'm afraid it will have to wait until a week later." Nikola Vanensburg certainly has his own story.

After all, Eagle Castle is different from the home of a wealthy merchant, and Nikola Van Lensberg did not come alone, but with his team.

Because of Roque's invitation, Nikola Van Lensburg was able to enter Eagle Castle, and his team members could only wait outside Eagle Castle, and without the help of team members, Nikola Van Lensburg could not complete the so-called "levitation technique" at all, so the time limit was a good reason.

"It's okay, then please stay in Eagle Castle for a week, and then perform for Mr. Rhodes in a week." Roque is not in a hurry, there is a lot of time, but I don't know if Xiao Si has the patience.

"I'm afraid not, my lord, I have felt the call of the Lord and will return to Orange to-morrow—" Nickra Van Lensberg certainly wouldn't wait to be revealed, and the "Lord" was a good excuse.

"Feeling the call of the Lord, shouldn't you go to heaven?" Xiao Si's expression was cold, and Roque could almost hear the sound of Xiao Si grinding his teeth.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Rhodes, but I am not Protestant, but the traditional religion of our Boers, and in our Boer tradition, we must return home whenever we feel the call of the Lord—" Nikola Van Lensberg forced his composure, the psychological quality of this liar is so good that he probably believed it himself.

"So you're going back to Holland?" Luo Ke asked casually, the tradition of this thing, without going through hundreds of years, probably cannot be inherited.

The Boers have only been in Africa for a long time, and if you really want to talk about tradition, you have to go back to the Netherlands to find it, or go to the Cape.

It can't be Orange anyway.
