"You're so naive!"

Henry Roberts, who is in Africa, couldn't help but sigh like this.n∈,

There is no way, a man in London, who is in the world's fog, can't suppress his mood when he sees such a blue sky. He is as if he wants to embrace the blue sky and must take a few more breaths.

However, after coming to this place, southern Africa, there were still many things that broke Henry Roberts's perception. For example, someone told him before that Africa was all savanna, but what he saw was a lot of mountains, rivers, lush forests, and not many of those savannas.

Despite this, some things are unaffected, that is hunting!

As for Africa, there are too many animals to be hunted here, which is definitely a good place for hunters. Henry Roberts's marksmanship is not bad. As an outstanding graduate of the Royal Military Academy of Sanhurst, the United Kingdom, he still has confidence in marksmanship.

But Henry Roberts is not here to play, hunting is only one of the pastimes...

"General! These are some recent developments in Dlanduwa. The farmers are still training and recruiting soldiers." A messenger handed over to Roberts with a report.

"**!" Roberts looked at the report and couldn't help but curse.

Of course, those farmers are Boers. These guys don’t know what’s wrong, they are going to fight against our British Empire. Well, in fact, this confrontation has been around for a long time, and those guys are all from mainland Europe.

In fact, the UK has come to this day. When most British people are asked, "Are you Britain a European country?", their answers are usually...

"..." Hesitated for a while. After a while, he nodded and said, "It should be counted."

By the way, it's just so unwilling to...

The British actually didn't regard themselves as Europeans. They looked at Europeans in a strange way. Now... a group of descendants of Europeans were originally in the British colony, but later they went out to establish two provinces. In the eyes of the British, they were their own control areas, not countries, but provinces, and were considered autonomous provinces.

And these people are not convinced now!

Since the Delantuvan guys discovered the gold mine, these bastards are simply going to rebel!

Henry Roberts was living a good life in the UK, but before he made military achievements overseas with his uncle, everything was fine. But now, the UK has sent him to Cape Town because some bad changes seem to occur here.

This change of course comes from the discovery of that gold mine. You must know that this gold mine is too big, which makes the world stunned. The most important thing is that everyone in the current European powers lack gold. So now you have discovered such a large gold mine. Who doesn’t covet it?

In fact, the British power in this area is very powerful. The British wealthy businessman Cecil Rhodes is now the richest man in South Africa. His biggest deal now is to resell diamonds!

Diamond, that is naturally diamond. But, in this era, that is, at the end of the 19th century, our time traveler, the great Pacific Rim Federation Emperor Li Mengyang, discovered that diamonds were not valuable at all. Anyway, they could not compare with the prices of later generations. The real value of this era was gold.

But however, when Li Mengyang learned about Rhodes's situation, a company name that he was very familiar with came into view, De Beers!

The company has only been established for four years and has indeed dug a lot of diamonds in South Africa, but this thing has not yet reached the point where it makes women crazy and men cry.

Since diamonds are not valuable and gold is valuable, Rhodes certainly has to bring the business over, so he asked the British government for help, and the British government wanted to do this, and it hit it off!

But these Boers are not easy to deal with. Both sides have fought once before, but the British guy was beaten very badly!

Well, more than 100 people died in fact... But, you know, in the war against the colonies, more than 100 people died was a big death!

Now, it seems that the Second War is coming again, and Henry Roberts was sent here to prepare for this war.

Henry Roberts' uncle was Frederick Roberts' nephew, known as a ponytail, and was a famous British army general.

In other words, Henry is a guy from a famous family, so now the problem is.

Will this war be fought? When will it be fought?

"General! I have a document to review." The messenger came again.

"Okay." Roberts' current military rank is actually just a lieutenant colonel, but it is a kind of etiquette to be called a general. Besides, it is not a matter of time for generals, so he accepted it calmly.

At first, Roberts didn't care, thinking it was a common document, but when he saw one of the names, he immediately became energetic!

Willie Young?!

Roberts couldn't help but recall his days at the Royal Military Academy of Sanhurst...

"Welcome!"

"Welcome to the friendly forces of the Pacific Rim Federation!"

"I've been in great difficulty all the way!"

Cape Town, a harbor, plays an extremely important role in Africa. Although the importance of the Suez Canal has been reduced now, it is still busy because of gold. On August 8, 1883, the port became even more busy because three steel warships came here.

"Oh! Is it General Yeung Willie? I recognized you at a glance. Do you still remember? You were lying on the lawn in Sanhurst, and I was there, do you remember?"

Henry Roberts was wearing military uniform and warmly welcomed the visitors from afar. Obviously, Willie Yang was the highest official among the visitors from afar!

This visit was entirely due to the alliance between the Pacific Rim Federation and the British Empire. We need to reflect our friendship. So, Emperor Li Mengyang sent his special envoy, Yang Willie.

However, does Yang still remember the person in front of him?

"Who are you?" Yang Weili looked around in his mind, but found that he could not find an image of this person.

"Oh! I was very young at that time. I am that Henry Roberts!" Henry quickly explained. He was really enthusiastic just now. To be honest, he was quite jealous of the guy in front of him!

It was just a one-on-one relationship in Sanhurst back then, but after just one encounter, Yang Willie started to be published soon, and many people knew about this guy's name, anyway, he was found in the newspaper. Although Roberts, a young man from a famous family, performed well, he was incomparable to him.

Just say that now, Henry Roberts is just a lieutenant colonel, while Yang Willie is already a lieutenant general in the army!

but!

It is definitely not low. The lieutenant colonel of our British Empire is definitely not lower than the lieutenant general of the Pacific Rim Federation!

Anyway, that's what Henry Roberts thinks, but now...

"This..." Yang Willie just searched in his mind again, but he still couldn't find the name of the person in front of him. Could it be that he had forgotten?

And Yang Weili usually doesn't like to tell lies. He thinks it's unnecessary, so...

"I really can't remember it, but, hello, General Henry Roberts."

This sentence...

"..." Henry Roberts' expression at this moment was as embarrassing as he was...

But fortunately, after all, the two sides are in an alliance, so it’s better for us to be brothers. Next, it’s naturally a routine, everyone can do some communication, such as some practical operations on warships, and everyone can drink and chat.

Of course there is nothing special about such a banquet. Yang Willie doesn’t have much impression of Henry Roberts. It’s true. Just be alone. If you want to forget someone specifically, it’s difficult to do it. The more you deliberately you will remember it, but if you have no feelings for someone, then forget it.

Fortunately, Henry Roberts didn't know this, otherwise he would be so stingy.

But, wasn’t Yang Willie just visiting for communication?

"I said, what's the task assigned by His Majesty?"

"I have basically done an understanding..."

After the banquet, Yang Willie naturally visited the overseas Chinese of the Pacific Rim Federation who worked and studied in Cape Town. Oh, this can only be an expatriates, because everyone is not only Chinese.

And now, the guy who is talking to Yang Willie in the office is nothing but a hilarious Stewart!

Hugh. What does this guy Stewart do? Anyone who knows him a little will know, but...

As far as the world goes, there are very few people who can do this!

By the way, Embarrass. Stewart is just a spy, but the problem is that this spy is now going everywhere and running around the world.

Therefore, he didn't have to do any makeup at all, and he was too lazy to change his identity and name. There was no need for him to be recognized. The discipline he could be recognized was lower than that of Mars hitting the Earth. In this era, in this way, ordinary people could not just walk around the world casually, and they had no money.

So since Stewart arrived in South Africa, it was interesting.

"General, the information we have received recently shows that the war that His Majesty predicts will probably be ahead of schedule!"

"What?" After hearing Stewart's words, Yang Willie said in surprise, because in his impression, the great Emperor rarely makes mistakes... (To be continued.)
