In late October, Ade sent a new deputy commissioner to the Johannesburg Police Department, a bit of a big deal from Britain's famous Spencer family.

That's right, it's Princess Diana's maiden family.

The new deputy director, Harry Spencer, had previously worked in India, but he couldn't stand the Indian environment, so he applied for a transfer from India to southern Africa.

After coming to Southern Africa, Harry Spencer's only requirement was that there should be no Indians in the work environment, and Ade picked and chosen, as if in the whole Transvaal, only the Johannesburg Police Department had no Indians, so Harry Spencer became the deputy chief of the Johannesburg Police Department.

To be honest, when he knew this reason, Roque was extremely remorseful in his heart.

Knowing that this was the case, Roque would have set up another police squad of Indian origin, even if it was excellent to use as a mascot.

Unfortunately, it was too late to regret it, as Harry Spencer had accepted the appointment and arrived in Johannesburg at the end of October to take up his post.

"Welcome to Johannesburg and hope this city will make you happy." Although reluctant in his heart, Roque welcomed Harry Spencer when he saw him.

In the leadership class of the Transvaal, Roque was young enough, and Harry Spencer was younger than Roque.

In Roque's opinion, Harry Spencer is probably no more than 25 years old, younger than many college students who have just walked out of school, his hair is a little thin, and he habitually raises his chin when looking at people, like a proud little rooster, this action is very aristocratic.

In fact, there is nothing to be proud of, unlike Roque who won the knighthood for his military exploits, the Spencer family was one of the richest wool merchants in Europe in the 15th century, and then during the time of Charles I, the Spencer family won the earl title by giving gifts to King Charles I.

Harry Spencer probably has no inheritance rights, so he has to work in the colonies, just like Henry in the past.

"Thank you, Lord Nyasaland, I've heard a lot about you and it's a pleasure to work with you." Harry Spencer has a decent respect for Roque, at least he doesn't say anything that he doesn't like.

In fact, the polarization of the British aristocracy is also very serious, the educated are very particular about demeanor anytime and anywhere, and the uneducated are eager to write the phrase "I am an aristocrat" on their faces, of course, the latter kind of people are relatively few, in general, most aristocratic families, the education of children is still very good.

"Thanks, just call me Locke." Roque is casual and doesn't hold a shelf all the time, as some people do.

"Okay Director." Harry Spencer was smart, both giving Roque face and appropriately showing respect for Roque.

Roque was satisfied, at least so far, and he didn't hate Harry Spencer.

It's a good start.

Harry Spencer's office is at the other end of the corridor, the size of the office is about the same size as Roque's, Roque took the initiative to take Harry Spencer to his office, and said that if Harry Spencer is not satisfied with the decoration style and office supplies of the office, he can adjust it at will.

Harry Spencer is not dissatisfied, now of course everything is good, what is in his heart is only Harry Spencer himself knows.

Now that he had the deputy commissioner, Roque divided the work, with the commandos and detectives still under Roque's direct management, and Harry Spencer in charge of the day-to-day work of the police department, as well as the Boer police officers who patrolled the city.

This arrangement is also quite appropriate, if Harry Spencer has a pursuit of power, then there is room for him to exert himself, if Harry Spencer wants to be lazy, then even if Harry Spencer does nothing, it will not affect the normal operation of the police station.

After placing Harry Spencer, Roque still went to Ziwei Town, and the new 1st Cavalry Division will have a monthly assessment in the next two days.

As Roque expected, in the previous training, the eight companies of the newly formed First Cavalry Division, except for the formation queue, all the results were all G Company led by William and Ross at the bottom, G Company not only failed in shooting, but also ran fast enough, and the endurance was not enough, grappling and assassination were commonplace, and even the original Boer people should be the best at equestrianism, G Company lost to H Company led by Geng Biao.

As for riding, it must be admitted that the Zulus, who practice riding every day, are really good at it.

This is also related to Roque's requirements, Roque is very clear that the trend of the army in the future will definitely be mechanization, so the new 1st Cavalry Division is nominally a cavalry division, but in fact there are not many horses, and Roque does not require the troops to do much training in this area.

If you have time to connect with riding, it is better to practice shooting.

On October 30th, the monthly assessment was officially carried out, the first was the formation queue, and the last was the long-distance training.

After Roque got the shooting results of G Company, he was still in a good mood, at least compared to the last time, G Company has improved a lot.

Roque still remembers the first live firing of G Company, with an average score of only 55 rings, and he did not pass, this is still the Boers who were famous for their marksmanship in the Boer War, as for the results of the British troops, Roque really can't imagine.

William and Rose also knew very well that Company G had just been established, and it was impossible to beat other companies in other events, or even close the distance, in a short period of time, so William and Rose decided to strengthen the advantages of Company G to the greatest extent, except that the formation of the queue was shooting.

All the sweat reflected in the results are effective, compared with the initial results, G Company this time got an average score of 61 rings, although this has not yet reached the standard of the new 1st Cavalry Division, but has reached the passing level, after the results came out, William and Rose were very happy.

"It's not bad, it's a huge improvement compared to the beginning, continue to keep it like this, and in another two months, it is estimated that the results will be good." Roque still praises, hard work, sweat, these things do not have intuitive quantitative data, and the results are the most obvious.

"G Company has been working very hard recently, at the beginning, each soldier in G Company had to shoot more than 100 shots a day, but the next day everyone had swollen shoulders and couldn't accept training, William and Rose were also ruthless, and they couldn't rest if their shoulders were swollen, so they continued to train in formation, and their results in this formation queue were really good, so I thought G Company would be the honor guard." Suo Chao was also in a good mood, and directly joked about G-Lian.

Lee Enfield's gun, which uses a full-charge bullet, still has a bit of a large recoil, and Roque knew about this problem, so he asked the Nyasaland Arsenal to change the full charge to a half-charge.

In this way, the power may be affected a little, but for the experience of the shooter, it is a huge improvement, if it is still left behind, the full charge bullet can be fired more than a hundred times a day, and the shoulder can be broken.

William and Rose were very dissatisfied with Suo Chao's words, but they didn't say anything, and now they are not really integrated into the new 1st Cavalry Division.

William and Rose's results have also improved greatly compared to before, Rose seems to be a strict demand for himself, in a short period of time, Rose's results have reached a good level, 88 rings, and a little more is excellent, and he can directly go to be an accurate shooter.

William's results have not yet reached the passing level, but the 58 rings are a world away from the original 15 rings.

Roque was also shocked when he saw William's results, although the report card did not indicate whether William missed the target, and the score of 15 rings was too low for a soldier.

Of course, this is for soldiers, for ordinary people, it is still a bit difficult to hit this kind of chest target 100 meters away, think about how big a person is 100 meters away, you can know how big the chest target is in the eyes of the shooter.

Compared to G Company, the results of several other companies were much better.

The best score was Company A, which averaged well above the passing line at an astonishing 85 rings, and a third of its soldiers scored more than 90 rings, all of whom qualified to be precision marksmen.

It is an honor for an accurate shooter to be in the new 1st Cavalry Division, if an ordinary soldier has just joined the new 1st Cavalry Division, then there is nothing on the military uniform, and if he gets the qualification of an accurate shooter, he can sew a scope-style logo on the cuff, if he has received heavy machine gun training, then he can sew a tripod on the cuff, and if he has received first aid training, then he can sew a red cross on the cuff.

These insignias, like the seniority badges on the chests of officers, are known at a glance by the insider.

Seeing that his company's results were so outstanding, Li Fei, the commander of Company A, laughed: "How about brothers, do you want to give you some accurate shooters, our Company A's accurate shooters are seriously surplus now!" ”

According to the regulations of the new 1st Cavalry Division, each squad must have at least one precision shooter, this precision shooter is not equipped with a sniper rifle, and he will follow the squad during the battle, and the Nyasaland Arsenal is now contacting the Germans, hoping to buy the Germans' optical technology, if the Nyasaland Arsenal has the ability to produce scopes, then Roque will issue sniper rifles using scopes to all precision shooters.

"Who scares about you! Don't be complacent for too long, wait and see, the next first one may not be yours. "The commander of B Company Jing was 10,000 dissatisfied, and the results of B Company were only 0.5 rings worse than that of A Company, which made Guan Jing very unwilling.

"Hahahaha, don't even think about it, our A will always be the first, and no one can snatch it away!" Li Fei was very arrogant, and several company commanders were scolding.

Geng Biao didn't say anything, the soldiers of H Company performed a little unsatisfactory, and their results did not meet the standard, and they were only less than one link away from being good.

I still have to strengthen my training when I go back!

Geng Biao is really tired.
