Frenzi still did not know enough about the armies of southern Africa, and it was not the 1st Cavalry Division that was responsible for the attack on the northern part of Tanganyika, but the Northern Rhodesian Division, which did not invade Sudan, but occupied part of the East African protectorate.

Of course, the "attack" here is definitely not recognized by Southern Africa, the East African protectorate is a dependency of the British Empire, and the northern division of Rhodesia only accidentally entered the East African protectorate when pursuing the German army, and did not mean to invade the East African protectorate.

Roque originally deployed the Northern Rhodesian Division in the North Sea in order to seize the northern part of Tanganyika as quickly as possible at the beginning of the war, and not to give other overseas leaders a reason to attack Tanganyika.

At this time, there was no Uganda Burundi between Tanganyika and Sudan, and the German army was weak and defenses in Tanganyika, and the Rhodesian Northern Division made rapid progress after attacking Tanganyika, and now it has completely occupied the northern part of Tanganyika, including the area around Lake Victoria.

Frenzi was referring to Lake Victoria.

"Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa, the second largest freshwater lake in the world, with an area of nearly 70,000 square kilometers, which can support tens of millions of people, and look at the role that the North Sea and Lake Nyasa played in our development of Nyasaland, so we must control Lake Victoria and the surrounding areas, which is very important for us to control Tanganyika." While Franczi and Ronk Zak are arguing with each other, Roque is also explaining to Ade and Philip the importance of Lake Victoria.

The elections in Southern Africa are finally over, Ade is still strong, he was re-elected as Prime Minister with a high vote, Philip is still the Speaker of Parliament, Roque is the newly created Minister of War in addition to the Minister of Defense, the Minister of Finance Bob Giles stepped down, Ida became the first female minister of the federal government, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Industry were merged into the Ministry of the Interior, Louis Botha served as the Minister of the Interior, the rest of the justice, education, and health remained the same, and the new Ministry of Overseas Affairs was established in preparation for the annexation of the Sinai Peninsula after the end of the war.

The two colonial officials, Ade and Philip, were staunch colonialists, and they now think more and more in favor of the interests of southern Africa, which has a reason to attack Tanganyika, but there is no reason to occupy the territory of the East African protectorate, unlike the desolate North Sea, where hundreds of thousands of Bantu people have lived for generations, and where they have lived for generations, it is the most densely populated area in Africa.

At this time, hundreds of thousands were already densely populated.

"Lake Victoria is good, but half of it is an East African protectorate, so we need to take more into account London's reaction." After the outbreak of the world war, southern Africa was like a tiger out of the cage, expanding to the periphery, and now Britain wants to use the industrial capacity and industrial raw materials of southern Africa, and will not restrict southern Africa, and it is difficult to say after the end of the world war, God knows if London will settle accounts after the autumn.

The UK also has a history in this regard.

"The East African Protectorate is useless, there is not even a decent city, there are no railways, there are no factories, and since the control of Lake Victoria can play a greater role in our hands, then it should be us who control Lake Victoria." Philip was already a complete African, and all the interests of the Matilda family were now in southern Africa, so Philip was more resolute on this issue.

The Roque factor plays a big role in this, and if it were someone else, it is estimated that Philip would not fully support it.

As a politician, Philip has reservations about many things and is unlikely to support someone without reservation.

"If London agrees with us to take control of Lake Victoria, then I will send fifteen infantry divisions to France within this year." Roque spent his blood and exchanged 15 infantry divisions for half of Lake Victoria, and Kitchener estimated that he could go crazy.

After the outbreak of the World War, the British government asked the War Department to pay attention to the defense of the East African protectorate, and Kitchener racked his brains and did not piece together the defense force of the East African protectorate, so he could only send a regiment from southern Africa to reinforce Egypt to be responsible for the defense of the East African protectorate.

Otherwise, the Northern Rhodesian Division would not have occupied the shores of Lake Victoria so easily, and Kitchener transferred the Upper Salisbury Rifle Regiment, and when the Northern Rhodesia Division entered the East African Protectorate, the Upper Salisbury Rifle Regiment not only did not stop the Northern Rhodesian Division, but instead cooperated with the Northern Rhodesian Division to move the Bantu along the shores of Lake Victoria to the hinterland of the East African Protectorate far from Lake Victoria, on the grounds of preventing the attack of the Tanganyikat Army.

The Anglo-French forces were losing ground in France, Britain was increasing its aid to France, and Kitchener even sent troops that had not received full training to France to support, so you can imagine how precious fifteen well-trained infantry divisions were to the expeditionary force now.

"Where did the fifteen infantry divisions come from?" Ade is really curious, just last month, Roque also kept saying that there were no extra troops sent to France in southern Africa, and now that the world war has just broken out for a month, Roque actually made 15 infantry divisions like a trick, which really made Ade doubt the authenticity of Roque's words.

"Just now, the army of Southwest Africa surrendered at Crabbe, and our losses were less than six hundred, and now five divisions in the direction of Southwest Africa can go to France at any time, plus three divisions that have already gone to France, and ten divisions that are being trained, fifteen divisions are not a problem." Roque laughed, this is the best news since the outbreak of the world war, and now supplies from southern Africa no longer need to be transferred from Cape Town, and can be sent directly to Europe through Walvis Bay.

"Great!"

"Send a telegram to London at once with the good news!"

Ade and Philip were overjoyed, and the fact that two men in their fifties had a passionate hug in the office was a good sign that the leadership of Southern Africa would need to work closely together for the next five years in order to fight for the greater good of Southern Africa.

"I've sent the 6th Division to Walvis Bay, and the 11th Division to Windhoek, and there's bad news, Mr. Schalke Beagle jumped out of a car on his way to Pretoria and drowned in the Vaal River—" Roque continued, which was actually good news, as Schalke Beagle was previously President of the Transvaal Republic and the leader of the rebels.

Yesterday afternoon, the 6th and 11th Divisions launched a final assault on the remaining militia rebels, and within three hours, the last remaining 6,000 rebels survived less than 1,200 people, Schalke Beagle had no choice but to surrender, Biles and Kemp had been killed in the previous battle, and now Schalke Beagle died unexpectedly, which also marked the complete destruction of the "old republicans".

Hearing Roque's report, Ade and Philip, who had just broken the barrier, glanced at each other, both of them had relief and happiness in their eyes, as for whether Schalke Beagle really died unexpectedly, Ade and Philip didn't care, if Schalke Beagle returned to Pretoria, it would be the real big trouble, and now he actually jumped out of the car and drowned in the river.

Well dead—

"The sanitary situation in the prison also needs to be improved, during this time the Ministry of Justice has arrested a lot of people, the prison is overcrowded, I heard that there are 6 people in the standard cell of 12 people, if the medical conditions are not good, it can have serious consequences." Philip suggested to Ade that the Minister of Justice was his son, and that his words were actually better than Ade's.

The sanitary situation in the prison is indeed very serious, and just a few days ago, Tillman Russ, a well-known Boer lawyer who publicly stated in the newspaper after the outbreak of the world war that he was willing to defend innocent people who had been arrested after the outbreak of the world war, died of severe diarrhea.

Then the unfortunate newspaper office was shut down, and Tillman Ruth was arrested for a report from a neighbor on the grounds that noise was disturbing the people, but Tillman Ruth fell ill and died less than a week after being imprisoned.

Also unfortunate was Dr. Malan, who was hospitalized for a cold, but his personal doctor used the wrong medication, and Dr. Malan contracted the virus and died.

I have to say that the level of medical care in this era is terrible.

"We don't have the capacity to build extra prisons, and while the federal government's finances are starting to improve, our finances are still tight, and we need to use our limited funds where they are needed more." Ade was indifferent, and he knew that the prison was not in good health, but it didn't mean to improve.

Strictly speaking, these problems in southern Africa are still legacy of the Boer War, when Ade promised leniency to the leaders of the Boer coalition on behalf of London in order to fight for peace, and many of them were not prosecuted, and even if they were prosecuted, the punishment was very light, and soon after there was an amnesty, and those Boer War leaders during the Boer War were easily exonerated with almost no punishment.

Then, in order to compensate for the losses of the Boers, London spent tens of millions on grants, tax cuts, and interest-free loans to Orange, which not only did not appease the Boers, but instead caused a part of the Boers to become dependent on London, which led to the later autonomy of southern Africa.

Ade now also recognizes the true face of those "old republicans", the last time they easily escaped punishment, this time they will not.

Before the outbreak of the world war, a member of Natal Parliament proposed that instead of the simple death penalty for the most heinous criminals, try to use more ways to make those executed more valuable as possible.

In fact, there is still a lot of demand in this area.
