Chapter 515: Pull a stunned young man into the game again?

The information sent back by Tempoz about the British stationing air forces in South Africa made the travelers realize that John Bull's declaration of war on the Boers entrenched in northeastern South Africa was by no means a whim, and although it was not a matter of a day or two to annex the two republics of Transvaal and Orange established by the Boers, it was only at this time that the rough embryo realized that John Bull was more prepared than the original plane.

In this way, the situation is even worse for the Boers, in the original history of time and space, the Boers began to prepare for war after Chamberlain became the colonial minister and began to adjust the policy of African colonies, but John Bull did not pay so much attention to the Boers for a while because there were too many troublesome colonies.

It was only after the famous telegram of Wilhelm II, the last emperor of Germany, that the British made up their minds to go to war against the Boers. Even so, the British were not fully prepared at that time, although they invested 400,000 troops in South Africa more than the total population of the Boers, but it was the same refueling increase as Huluwa saving grandpa, and it did not really form a thunderous blow to the Boer militia.

However, in this time and space disturbed by the butterfly effect caused by the arrival of the time-traveling people, the situation of the warring parties preparing for war has been reversed. The Boers became the passive and hasty side of the battle, while the British, armed with planes and tanks stolen from the Crossing Crowd, were intent on taking out the Boers once and for all.

"Did Wilhelm II send that famous telegram to the Boers?" Zhao Yi asked.

"As with the history of the original plane, Dr. Jensen, a senior employee of the British South African Mining Company, led 600 mercenaries and a few Maxim machine guns in an attempt to make an expedition to the Transvaal to overthrow the regime of Paulus Kruger of the Boers. The so-called expeditionary force was surrounded by the Boers in January of this year, and ended up killing more than 130 men and taking the rest of the men, including Jensen, prisoner. Wang He flipped through the small notebook and said.

"We do not know whether the irascible last German emperor sent the famous congratulatory telegram to Paulus Kroger. Wang He continued.

Speaking of the congratulatory telegram that led to the deterioration of Anglo-German relations, it was not famous because of the way the British acquired it.

Since the invention of the telegraph by the American Morse in 1844, the empire that never sets in the prime of life has quickly established a complete cable telegraph network on its own territory, and has also established submarine cables extending in all directions, extending the "tentacles" to the world. Since then, the United Kingdom, which has become the "transit station" of the world's submarine cables, has begun to use the convenience of "node control" to eavesdrop and monitor the information and intelligence of various countries and major military aircraft affairs.

Therefore, in the history of time and space, when Kaiser Wilhelm II's congratulatory telegram was intercepted by the British and published in the world, people were no longer surprised by the means by which the British obtained information, but the content of the telegram itself caused an uproar.

Some historians even called it a stage event in which the Anglo-German contradictions gradually intensified, after which the British changed their attitude of compromise with Germany and turned to countermeasures around the world. In the end, Britain and Germany fell into a shipbuilding race, and the allies were drawn into a situation where they became imaginary enemies of each other, and the First World War was brewed and broke out under such a tense situation.

"I would like to express my sincerest congratulations to you and your people for single-handedly repelling the invading armed elements that are detrimental to the peace, without the help of any friendly forces. You have maintained the peace of the country and defended the independence of the country. Wilhelm II said to Paulus in a telegram.

Before the telegram reached the Transvaal and reached Paulus, the British intercepted it via an undersea cable under their control. As a veteran patient with paranoia of being killed, Opium Cow took it for granted that the so-called "friendly forces" mentioned in Wilhelm II's telegram were undoubtedly demonstrating to Britain and courting the Transvaal, which meant that the latter could receive German aid if necessary. This made the British feel that their sphere of influence was being violated.

The Times even published an article saying, "England will never back down in the face of threats, will never be humiliated and submitted!" A fierce "anti-German sentiment" immediately arose in Britain. The smashed windows of German shops in London, and the frequent attacks on German sailors in British ports are known as the "Kruger Telegraph" incident. Incidentally, at this time, the newspaper that had always advertised itself as a "dish cooking style" seemed to have forgotten the human rights and privacy rights of Wilhelm II and Paulus.

"Let me say that Wilhelm II had already sent that telegram, and the British shamelessly intercepted it through the submarine cable under their control. The reason why we didn't make as much noise as we did in the history of the original plane is probably because we and Hans are in a honeymoon phase right now. Huang Xiaolei analyzed.

"In fact, when the envoy of Mao Zi came to suggest that we could do something in South Africa, we should have thought that John Bull had intercepted the telegram sent by William II. Letting Tian Buzi, who pretends to be a co-op, make such remarks in Tianjin is purely to hit the muzzle of the gun of those murdered paranoid patients. Huang Xiaolei continued.

"When you say that, how do I feel like we've bitten bait on a Maozi hook?" Hao Dajian said.

"Hehe, even if the hook is hung with explosives, don't we have to bite it? Facing the flatbread that has been newly demarcated from the north, whoever recognizes it must have a big-character poster mentioning his name on the bulletin board at the entrance of the canteen. Huang Xiaolei's sentence is the truth.

"That is to say, the British intend to get rid of the Boers cleanly before Hans and we have time to intervene. This is really quietly entering the village to shoot guns! Hao Dajian said.

"The most unlucky thing is to pretend to be a criminal, just bragged in Tianjin, and then was fooled by the 'director team' to go to South Africa. I don't know what the British will feel when they see this mustache in South Africa. Huang Xiaolei said.

"Stephanie, Pete (Tian Buzi's English name) will be heartbroken to know that you are talking about him behind your back." Hao Dajian quipped.

"Well, if he comes back alive this time, I'll consider marrying him. In this way, our descendants will have a much greater chance of becoming a famous family in the Great Song Dynasty. Huang Xiaolei said seriously, and the political marriage seemed to be as normal as eating and drinking from her mouth.

"The premise is that the turtle grandson must come back alive, and the parts that gave birth to the child can also come back intact. So for the sake of your dream of a wealthy family, you should hurry up and find a way to save the child's father. Hao Dajian said.

In the war zone deep inland in Africa in the southern hemisphere, it is enough to count on the warships that are generally short of fuel. Well, even if there is fuel, there is still a partially enemy submarine outside, who the hell would dare to go out? Could it be that there are reliable sonar soldiers on his ship, and he doesn't have a little pressure in his heart?

At this time, everyone was counting on what stock Huang Xiaolei still had in her stomach, and she could pull another half stunned Qing to stir up this troubled water, so that Tian Buzi and them could have a chance to run away safely.

"There are still ways, and the Gallic chicken is not a good master, so he can go and tease him." Huang Xiaolei said.

After the Faji crossed the crowd and landed in Liaodong, he came to angrily brush his sense of existence two or three times, interfering in returning Liao, sending poison to Dalian Bay, and doing some thankless things! The restless hall is really true, but this is nameless and unprofitable, you tricked the Gallic chicken to go to Africa to do things, if it wasn't for the brain, it would follow you?

The princes attending the meeting also looked at Huang Xiaolei with the eyes of me who read less, and expressed their doubts that they still had fruit in their pockets that could deceive the magic chicken.

"Hey, don't believe it, there is bait that can make the French not afraid to die, just like Lake Berga is to us, and for the Gallic chicken, even if you tell him that it is poisonous, he has to take a bite of it!" Huang Xiaolei said.

"Don't be a person, you say!" Hao Dajian said.

"Do you know where the fire of John Bull in Africa has not been extinguished? Did you know that there was a man named Mahdi who was making a big fuss in Africa? Do you know where the British admiral in the yellow coat was beheaded in Africa? Huang Xiaolei said.
