Although Dennis Weld is British, the main business of the British Belgian Rubber Company is in the Congo Free State, so Denis Wilder's position is not so obvious.

Roque still remembers that the last time Dennis Wild came to Roque, the purpose was not to reconcile the conflict between Nyasaland and the Congo Free State.

Roque can actually understand why Dennis Weld is at both ends, because the progress of Nyasaland in the Congo Free State exceeded Denis Wilde's expectations, and Dennis Weld really wanted to profit from the chaos at the beginning, but now, Nyasaland's progress in the Congo Free State has the potential to endanger the interests of the British and Belgian rubber companies, so Dennis Weld must have a choice.

Quite simply, under the rule of Leopold II in the Congo Free State, the British Rubber Company was able to reap a large amount of profit from the rubber plantations.

However, once Nyasaland gains control of the Congo Free State, it is difficult to say whether the British Belvereign Rubber Company will be able to maintain its current interests, let alone fishing in troubled waters.

After all, under Roque's rule, there was no need for Africans, and if the Anglo-Belgian rubber company hired Chinese workers, it would have to fully guarantee the interests of Chinese workers, which was actually more than worth the loss for the plantation owners, after all, the profits of the plantations were far lower than the gold mines, and the plantation owners of the Congo Free State could not afford to pay the high wages of the Transvaal miners.

The key is to be able to afford it, and not willing to give it!

"You can convey my opinion to the Belgians, as for how to choose, it depends on the Belgians' meaning, I am leaving Nyasaland today to return to Johannesburg, there is something you can go to General Anton." Roque set the tone, and specifically asked Anton to talk slowly with the Belgians, anyway, Roque is not in a hurry, and it is the Belgians who are in a hurry now.

The Northern Rhodesia Division was formed, and the Nyasaland militia was all formally formed, and even the temporary members of the militia became the reserve of the northern Rhodesia division.

As the commander of the Nyasaland militia regiment, Anton now has the rank of major general, and concurrently serves as the deputy commander of the northern Rhodesian division, which is the commander of the division.

In Rhodesia, South African companies enjoy the privileges of signing contracts, organizing local governments, forming armies and police, doing business, setting up banks and joint-stock companies, building roads, and exploiting land, forests and mineral resources, which basically cover diplomatic, military, political, economic and other aspects, so to speak, the rights of South African companies in Rhodesia are greater than the rights of the Viceroyalty of Ade in the Transvaal and Orange.

Therefore, Anton can casually become a major general of the northern division of Rhodesia, and he does not need to say hello to London, this is the internal affair of Rhodesia.

To put it mildly, if Roque has the condition of Xiao Si, then it will not take until the First World War for Roque to become the emperor of Africa.

"Sir, the Belgians are still in Little Rock, it's not appropriate for you to go back to Johannesburg now-" Dennis Weld did not dare to let Roque go, Roque left, and the negotiations were basically far away.

"Of course it's appropriate, I'm still the chief of the Johannesburg Police, it's not good to be out of Johannesburg for a long time, I don't want to be derelict in my duties." Roque is serious, Johannesburg really needs Roque, this has been several months, and Roque has a big business in Johannesburg, and if it were someone else, he would not have known that he had been expelled hundreds of times.

In the evening, of course, Roque and Phyllis took the train back to Johannesburg, leaving Denis Wilde and the Belgians to Anton.

Although Roque left Nyasaland, Roque's order to Lara was not canceled.

Upon receiving Roque's orders, Lara immediately launched an attack on Lubumbashi.

Like the Yao people before the Portuguese, Lala's forces had besieged Lubumbashi for more than a month, and for more than a month, Lubumbashi's external communications had been completely cut off, and his morale was maintained only by the supplies stored in the city.

Lubumbashi was the largest Belgian stronghold in the southern Congo Free State, and Lara besieged Lubumbashi without attacking it, and did not spare the strongholds around Lubumbashi.

For a month, Lara's forces have swept the strongholds within a 100-kilometre radius around Lubumbashi, and apart from a few small strongholds on the border between the Congo Free State and Rhodesia, there are no Belgian formed troops in the southern Congo Free State.

The current Yao people are no longer the same as the Yao people lost in Portuguese East Africa, during the period of Portuguese East Africa, the Yao people did not even have heavy machine gun shooters, and they all relied on the Zulu people in the Transvaal, so that the Yao people could have heavy firepower, and now Roque transferred most of the Zulu people in Portuguese East Africa to Madagascar, and the Yao people finally had their own heavy machine gun shooters.

However, although there is, there is still a huge gap between the Yao heavy machine gun shooters and the Zulu heavy machine gun shooters, not to mention the Nyasaland who can play the heavy machine gun to the flower.

Lala used to work in the Johannesburg Police Department, and also visited the training of the Nyasaland militia group, in this regard, Lala is really ashamed, I don't know how to fight, anyway, in the training, a heavy machine gun operated by a Nyasaland heavy machine gun shooter can easily suppress three or four heavy machine guns operated by Yao heavy machine gun shooters.

Lara felt that the Nyasaland heavy machine gun shooter still had his hands left, and if it was in actual combat, the gap should be even greater.

If you think about it, you can understand that heavy machine gun shooters also need bullet training skills, and Nyasaland has an arsenal, and of course bullets can be used casually, so heavy machine gun shooters in Nyasaland can be fully trained, just like the police officers of the Johannesburg Police Department in the past.

Although Nyasaland gave the Yao people a batch of heavy machine guns, Nyasaland did not send bullets, so the Yao heavy machine gun shooters were very lacking in actual combat training.

Fortunately, this time, the Yao troops entered the Congo Free State, and all of them were paid for by Nyasaland, otherwise, relying solely on the strength of the Yao people, the scum really couldn't put the troops into the Congo Free State.

It is precisely for this reason that Lala fully realized the real gap between the Yao forces and the Nyasaland forces.

It's not bullets at all, it's not a heavy machine gun, it's not a soldier's quality, compared with the Yao army and the Nyasaland army, the biggest gap is logistics, and the other gaps are easy to say, as long as you work hard, you can always make up for it, but the gap in logistics is huge, which makes Lala desperate.

After Nyasaland entered the state of war, the logistics of the troops were immediately raised to the highest level, and this highest level was basically canned food, bread, and biscuits that were eaten in unlimited quantities, one pack of cigarettes per person per day, one piece of chocolate per person per day, about 3.5 ounces per person per day, and bananas could be supplied openly in terms of fruits, and even the rare apples were one per person per day.

In addition, there is also 3.5 ounces of banana wine per person per day, which is the favorite thing of the Yao warriors, as long as they drink the banana wine, the Yao warriors can hit Kinshasa in one go.

These seemingly inconspicuous cans, breads, and biscuits are actually industrial products, and all the logistical supplies provided by Nyasaland, except for bananas, everything else, even toilet paper, is a luxury for the Yao people.

There are really many Yao soldiers who are reluctant to use hand paper, and many Yao soldiers use hand paper as napkins, and even use it to wrap wounds, and Lala can't correct it no matter how much he scolds.

In the past, when Lala knew that Roque supported the Yao people to build a country, he also had some ambitions.

Now that these ambitions are gone, the huge industrial gap is enough to erase any gap in human resources.

What's more, there is no shortage of people in Nyasaland, which is a fact that everyone knows.

Knowing all this, Lara was completely dead, in fact, it was not bad to follow the Nyasaland people, at least the Nyasaland people treated Africans much better than the whites treated Africans, when Lara served in the expeditionary force, not to mention chocolate, she had never even seen canned food.

"We only have 24 hours - no, there are still 22 hours left, so gentlemen, we have to hurry up and take down Lubumbashi, not long ago, the northern division of Rhodesia took three hours to annihilate 7,000 white mercenaries, and now there are less than 2,000 white men left in Lubumbashi, and there are many old and weak women and children, it's time to show the bravery of our Yao people, remember my words, you can rob, you can burn, you can even kill, but you must not insult the white man, otherwise I will cut off his life with my own handsLet's go! Lala finally emphasized.

The reason why the British do not trust Africans is that in addition to the laziness and laziness of Africans in their bones, military discipline is a very serious problem.

Before the white people came to Africa, there were countless African tribes on the African continent, and these tribes also attacked each other and fought each other for thousands of years.

Generally speaking, when one tribe has defeated another, it kills all the adult men of the defeated tribe and takes away the women and children, who become the spoils of the victors.

Africans have become accustomed to all this, so the women and children of the defeated tribes will not resist and accept their fate calmly.

Roque knows the problems of Africans, so Roque does not directly manage Africans, but relies on Africans to manage Africans.

This hand is very effective, because Africans may be disobedient to the whites, but they are unusually obedient to the Africans, because they know that if they make mistakes, then the Africans who manage them will not hesitate to poison them.

"Victory! Victory!! Victory!!! ”

The Yao officers were ordered to assemble their troops separately shouting slogans.

Lubumbashi in the distance was as helpless as a trembling sheep in a pack of wolves.
