Soon, the news of the Boer raid on the British Empire's settlement in South Africa immediately shocked everyone. Because they didn't expect that a small Boer country would dare to take the initiative to sneak attack the place of the British Empire, this is simply a slap in the face of the British Empire! Nima, if it was the Germans, the French, the Americans, the Russians who slapped the British Empire, they would have confessed to it too. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Taiwan slapped the British, the British would scold them twice. But you, a Boer, with a population of only a few hundred thousand, and such a weak army, aren't you looking for a draw? Soon Salisbury, the Prime Minister of the British Empire, was also meeting to discuss war against the Boers.

"We must teach these guys who don't know how to live and die well, if they are allowed to live so freely, then how can we put the face of the British Empire? Therefore, we must teach them a hard lesson, otherwise our British Empire will really have no face. He is a country with a population of only a few hundred thousand, and even dares to challenge our British Empire, and we will never be able to agree to it. So, we're going to go to war right away, and we have to defeat them. The Marquess of Salisbury shouted.

And the British cabinet members agreed to go to war, because they thought it would be easy to defeat a country with a population of only a few hundred thousand. A country with a population of only a few hundred thousand can be so powerful, as long as the British Empire's troops arrive, they will not be defeated. Therefore, the cabinet immediately planned to send troops to attack.

The British have long coveted the Boer territory, because there is one of the largest gold mines in the world, that is, the Rand gold mine. The Rand Gold Mine can be said to be the world's No. 1 gold mine, and even in the 21st century, it is the world's No. 1 gold mine that has been discovered. Other gold ore reserves of hundreds of tons are already very huge gold mines, while this Rand gold mine reserves are calculated in tens of thousands of tons. The Rand Gold Mine ranks first in terms of reserves and production. And at present, half of the world's discovered gold reserves are the Rand gold mine. As long as you can get this big gold mine, you can get it, very great wealth, especially in this era of the gold standard, gold also represents wealth. As long as this rand gold mine can be controlled, it means that more than half of the world's currency will be controlled in the future. It's really tempting. Controlling more than half of the world's currency, the British Empire would remain strong forever.

So, one by one, these guys are starting to blush. It is also inevitable that they will go to war against the Boers, and if the Boers hold this gold mine, it is equivalent to taking the gold to the downtown area with the gold in the young children, so isn't it eye-catching to rob it? Even without this Boer initiative, the British would have tried to find a reason to attack. This is also the so-called sin of desire, so why should there be no excuse? Therefore, the British will naturally not let go of this opportunity. They immediately began to deploy their troops. Moreover, instead of seeing this Boer offensive as a bad thing, they thought it was a good opportunity for them to start a war against the Boers, and an opportunity to gain great benefits. As long as the Boers were defeated, then the gold would belong to their British Empire.

At this time, the British had no idea what kind of impact this war would have on their British Empire, and what kind of impact it would have on the international situation.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we are based on telegram. Some interesting phenomena were discovered. A cabinet member said.

"Oh? What's interesting? The Marquess of Salisbury asked.

And the cabinet member immediately said: "That is, our troops have seen submachine guns in the hands of the Boers, and there are some yellow-skinned people who have gone to help the Boers in battle." And those people were armed with submachine guns. And it's yellow. Also, I found some square words on the utensils used by those people. However, because no one in the local area knows these square words and doesn't know what these square words are, they just say that there are square words, and they don't recognize what they are. But. In short, it is a square word, and the font structure is a square, not like our text that uses the Latin alphabet. ”

"You mean?" The Marquis of Salisbury had guessed something, but he still wanted to be sure.

"There are countries in the East that are interfering with us. Although there are many ethnic groups in this world, it is not impossible to use square words. But. Able to use square words, and also capable of interfering, and being a yellow Asian, who else but that isolle? The cabinet member hinted.

"Bastard, we didn't trouble him, he actually took the initiative to trouble us?" The Marquis of Salisbury said angrily.

This is the lice in the monk's head, obviously. So when they heard this, they immediately felt furious. Because the British did not take the initiative to find Taiwan's bad luck, but Taiwan actually helped the Boers to fight the British here, and Taiwan actually colluded with the Boers, which simply complicated things a lot. If this is the case, it will be really very complicated, because once Taiwan is allowed to intervene, the Boer War, which was originally good, will become a behind-the-scenes battle between Taiwan and the British. And Taiwan supported the Boers to go to a proxy war with the British.

"What do they want to do? Isn't it enough for them to have the South Seas, and they still want to get involved in Africa? Someone asked right away.

"However, with Taiwan's interference, won't we fight either?" Someone asked.

The Marquis of Salisbury immediately shouted: "No, we have to fight, even if there is Taiwanese interference, then we will fight." If we don't fight, then where will we put the face of the British Empire? So, we have to fight. Let our consul of the British Empire in Taiwan warn Wang Guorui in Taiwan and ask him to take back all the troops he sent out, otherwise our British Empire will not be polite to him. ”

"This time, we'll clean up this Boer first, and in a year or two we'll be going to clean him up."

Salisbury is ready for war, that is, this time to clean up the Boers first, and when the Boers are finished, they will go to clean up Taiwan. The British hated Taiwan to the extreme, but they were not ready to start a full-scale war at present. When the British are ready for war, then there will be a war in Taiwan, and there is no room for negotiation. However, he did not expect that now the Boers would actually start to make trouble, which made the British very depressed. But the British were not worried, because the British were very strong, and even if they decided to send troops to fight the Boers on the other hand, there would be no problem. After all, the strength of the Boers is only hundreds of thousands, and it should be no problem to send 10,000 troops to fight the Boers themselves.

"To the Boers, go to war!"

With the words of the Marquis of Salisbury, the entire British war machine was also in motion, and tens of thousands of soldiers were gradually transported to the ships, and then prepared to be sent to South Africa to fight. And by this time, the whole world also knew that the British were going to war against the Boers. However, the Boers were not optimistic about the Boers, after all, the population of the Boers was only hundreds of thousands, and their economic and military strength were much weaker than the British, so countless countries did not think that the Boers could defeat the British. This makes all countries not optimistic about the Boers, but everyone is also envious and jealous of the British, because the British will soon be able to obtain the world's largest gold mine, which will occupy more than half of the world's currency in the future, so that the strength of the British will go up a big level, so everyone is also red.

"Hahahaha, it's great that the British finally got into a fight with the Boers." Wang Guorui said.

"Husband, can this Boer really take on the task of holding back the British? No matter how I look at it, I don't think it's possible for them, even if we send more than a thousand mercenaries, but I still don't think the Boers can defeat the British! Zheng Hong said.

And Wang Guorui immediately said: "Actually, if you think so, then I'm afraid the British think so too." But you have seriously overestimated the strength of the British's army, and their army is not very strong. Moreover, although their combat thinking has improved as much as ours, they have not been able to improve much. They still used linear tactics, but if they bought a guerrilla war against the Boers, they would definitely face a big loss. The British had almost no experience in guerrilla warfare, and if they faced guerrilla warfare, they would certainly suffer heavy losses. And our more than 1,000 mercenaries came out of the guerrilla warfare in the tropical rainforest of the South Seas, and they have very rich experience in guerrilla warfare. Their guerrilla warfare in this kind of dense forest, coupled with the inexperience of the British, can be used by tens of thousands of people under the advantage of one another. At that time, a large amount of manpower and material resources of the British were delayed by the Boers, so we could all take the opportunity to find an opportunity to enter the mainland to develop. We've been stuck on this island for so long, we can't wait any longer. Therefore, we must find opportunities and reasons to enter the mainland as soon as possible to develop, so that we can obtain a large number of people and resources, and we do not have to rely on immigration to develop. Only when we go to the mainland can we achieve the most important way to achieve development, and we can begin the process of moving towards a strong country. ”

"Husband, the British consul asks to see you." Kang Tongwei said.

"Hmph, it's time to ask the guilt!" Wang Guorui said. (To be continued......)
