"Zizi Zi ......"

There was a lot of noise on the phone, and even then, it was a black technology of the Berlin power company.

For such long-distance calls, Ernst alone was equipped with 67 sound amplifiers, and spent a lot of money to recruit relevant talents and invite technology leaders from Germany, and finally with the help of Siemens bosses, it took a few months to overcome the relevant problems.

Compared to Siemens, Ernst's Berlin Power Company was inferior to a schoolboy, and several important inventions were also made by chance.

At the same time, Berlin Electric Power also assumes the role of half of Siemens' processing plant, and processes some parts under license from its technology.

Although the Berlin Electric Company was so unbearable, it also grew into the second largest power company in Germany, the first being Siemens.

As Ernst said before, the only great inventors in the field of electricity that can be compared with Siemens are Tesla and Edison in the United States (excluding the theoretical masters).

Until the telephone line was laid, all the expenses were almost enough to buy Alaska again, but such a transoceanic line had basically no commercial value for the Hexingen consortium.

The entire telephone line could only be used to maintain the communication between Ernst and Konstantin, and the only effect was to increase the technical reserves of the Berlin power company.

Unlike telephone lines, the renovated telegraph lines can be divided into a part of the line, which is no longer used as a special line for the East African government, and can also be used for civilian communications, but it is not needed according to the current situation of East African immigrants.

After a long conversation, Ernst and Konstantin finally returned to the topic of the army.

Now there is a question in East Africa, whether to disarm or expand the army, and the army of nearly 100,000 people seems to be quite a lot.

It can be placed on a land area of more than 2 million square kilometers, which is very small, but the pressure on East Africa's defense is not great.

The militia alone can form a crushing advantage over the surrounding natives, and it is estimated that it can fight with other colonists, of course, this is by virtue of numerical superiority.

However, if the enemy comes from the sea, it is not something that the militia can deal with, and if it can fight from the sea, its military capability is certainly not weak, and even the so-called "regular army" in East Africa is estimated to be difficult to deal with.

A large part of the standing army of the East African colonies actually served as a policeman, and almost every city had a little, as did some villages and towns.

It is also difficult to guarantee the quality of officers in East Africa, even the students who graduated from the Heixingen Military Academy are soldiers with slightly higher military literacy.

Moreover, it was achieved in a short period of time, and its ability may not be comparable to that of a mercenary who had been in the Prussian army for many years.

That is, there was a lack of professional officer talent, which was why it was proposed at the military conference to learn from Prussia.

Only three of the current graduates of the Heshingen Military Academy have received their education at the rank of officer in Prussia, and all three are one in a million.

Prince Constantine, who was still in Europe at the time, used his connections to stuff him into the Berlin Military Academy, and it is difficult to say whether he can succeed in his studies, the number is too small to be used, and the first Heixingen student to enter the Berlin Military Academy for further study is still two years away from graduation.

"Father, I think it is better to separate some soldiers from the army and set up a police department in East Africa, as for the army, it should not be expanded, and the follow-up should focus on improving the professionalism and combat ability of the troops, East Africa does not need so many troops now."

"The more troops the better, no matter how powerful Napoleon was back then, he couldn't stop the siege of the whole of Europe, but the militia in East Africa should be enough, and the standing army really doesn't need to be expanded." Konstantin said.

"Then it is decided, through this military reform, the military power of East Africa will be completely in the hands of our Heixingen royal family, and then we will start to reform the government of East Africa." Enszé sets the tone.

In fact, the military power in East Africa has always been in the hands of Ernst, but it has been done through checks and balances, and now that Prince Constantine has arrived in East Africa, it is equivalent to the transfer of the Heshingen royal family to East Africa.

Previously fearing that the central government and the army would have too much power, Ernst himself would play it off, and now it was up to Prince Constantine to reshape the centralization of power in East Africa.

This is also a good thing for the East African government, which can better take over many of the functions that the Black Singen Foundation has acted on.

The previous East African government was a real puppet government, and even the power to count passed through the employees of the Hexingen consortium.

The former head of administration of the East African government, von der Leyen, was herself an employee of the Heshingen Foundation, which was more like a subsidiary of the Hexingen Foundation.

"With regard to government reform, do you want the government to take over all the government in East Africa?" Konstantin asked.

"It's almost, but we still have to dock with the Heixingen Foundation, after all, the trade in East Africa is still done by the Heixingen Foundation."

"Then what do you need to pay attention to in government reform! What do you think? ”

"Father, the existing departments are very important, although we have to learn from Prussia's government agencies to a certain extent, but the situation in East Africa is different from Prussia, such as the disease control department, its weight in East Africa is not small, and it will still be paid attention to after becoming the Ministry of Health in the future, East Africa as a tropical region, disease and medical aspects must not be ignored.

The most important thing is the army, the Ministry of Defense must be built, so let Yarman be the Minister of Defense, he is not in good health, he is at ease, and his qualifications and prestige in the army are enough.

The police department mentioned earlier can also be established in the new government, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also a new department in East Africa, so you can decide for yourself.

However, I do have one person to recommend, and that is Becker, the official of Mbeya City, who can give it a try.

He used to let East Africa get the Yeke Kingdom with only five hundred guns with one mouth, and his ability should be not bad. ”

Becker was a man who was reported by Witt and Ernst, and Ernst remembered it, so he mentioned it to his father.

However, the specific situation is still Konstantin's own decision, because Heixingen, as a country that has existed, has only been incorporated into Prussia for twenty or thirty years, and the team of the Heixingen royal family still exists.

I just don't know if Konstantin brought it with him to East Africa this time, after all, many people were disbanded that year, or have died, or did not choose to come to East Africa.

"I remember almost all of the above, but I think the Ministry of Culture can also be formed, and it just so happens that I have some old guys who can arrange to enter." Konstantin said.

East African cultural undertakings are basically equal to none, if the popularization of German is not counted, so Konstantin wants to strengthen the construction of East African culture, which is also good for Ernst, the royal family of Heixingen has always attached importance to cultural development, which began with Grandpa Ernst, and the literati in Heixingen have a good reputation for Frederick.

However, Ernst still reminded: "Father, it is okay to promote the development of East African culture, but not to involve the ideological level, and to organize more entertainment activities for East African immigrants."

They don't need any advanced thoughts, it is enough to honestly support the rule of the Heixingen royal family, and they can't put shackles on ourselves. ”

"Don't worry, I know what to do, I just want to promote the implementation and expansion of German traditional culture in East Africa, do you think I won't be wary of liberalism?" Konstantin said murderously.

At that time, the reason why Hexingen was annexed to Prussia was the result of Napoleon's implementation of the French system in Germany, at least Constantine thought so, in order to prevent the onslaught of the "mob", Hexingen and Sigmaringen had no choice but to invite Prussia to send troops.

Since then, the country has existed in name only, but now the development of the East African colony is equivalent to the resurrection of Heixingen.

Heixingen's small court suddenly found a way out again, and re-employed in East Africa, which belonged to the reincarnation of filthy soil.

Moreover, in terms of legitimacy, East Africa seems to be stronger than the Heixingen territory, and the Heixingenbo Kingdom in the German region has now moved to East Africa even the royal family, and the East African colonies have become the main body of the Heixingenbo Kingdom.

As for the black roots, it became the tentacles of East Africa in Germany and Prussia, and the roots of the black roots were originally the tentacles of Prussia in South Germany, and things became interesting.
