"Uncle Karl, this time you will live in the first town and city, the development of the colony needs a process, especially in Africa, and it needs to be more cautious, so you can stay in the first town and city to contact Leopold and them, and at the same time be able to supervise the progress of the colony."

It was also appropriate to invite Prince Karl to stay in the first town, and it was impossible for a seventy-year-old to go to Chad alone.

Now Chad is really a barren land, an area with more beasts than people, and this is because East Africa has arrived, and a large number of black forces have fled westward, and this part of Africa, where typical people and wild animals pull, and the space left by blacks, East Africa has not been occupied, and it has been reoccupied by those wild animals.

Therefore, this time the East African border troops are far more likely to go on a large-scale hunt in Chad than to clash with black forces.

In fact, as the population of East Africa increases, the wildlife resources of East Africa are also greatly affected, so this time the army can make a small fortune by going around Chad, especially ivory and leather.

Ernst continued: "Colonial development is not an overnight thing, especially in Africa, a little careless, you may lose everything, after all, there are some examples of colonial failures in Africa, but as long as you follow the experience of East Africa, it should not be difficult to do it again in Chad, we can send relevant experts to provide you with protection." ”

The so-called experts are old East Africans who have lived in East Africa for a long time, and they have experienced the process of starting from scratch in the East African colonies, encountered various difficulties, and finally overcame them, so they are absolutely rich in experience.

In fact, Chad has two divisions in East Africa next to it, and these armies will help the future Sigmaringen to solve most of the problems.

The army has always been at the vanguard of colonial expansion in East Africa, and the East African Army on the border has experience in dealing with various risks, and the army is also one of the bases for shaping East African talent.

In addition to learning to march and fight, they are exposed to all kinds of new things, especially machinery and technology, and the East African military camp is also a place to improve literacy.

At the same time, the East African army has a certain amount of medical experience, basically every soldier knows a little, and simple bandaging and disinfection skills are still relatively proficient.

Therefore, if Sigmaringen encounters any problem and asks the East African Army for help, most of them can be solved, whether it is fighting a war or living.

"Ernst, how long do you think it will take if we want to build a colony in Chad and incorporate the region you speak of into Sigmaringen, or even further?"

Ernst thought for a moment and replied: "If it is just to establish a colonial order, just like ordinary colonies, it will only take a few years, and even the number of colonies will not be much, a few thousand people are enough to establish colonial rule in Africa." ”

In the past, the Germans in German East Africa, numbering only a few thousand, controlled nearly a million square kilometers of land, but it was clear that this colonial rule was not stable and insufficient to cope with the competition of the British and other African colonizers.

Like Ernst, who directly uses violent tactics in Africa, and the tactics of crowds are not the mainstream, after all, Ernst went to enclosure and statehood from the beginning, not to simply plunder the wealth of Africa.

So Ernst said: "If the colonies of Sigmaringen want to develop and go further, it is better to follow the same path as East Africa, the natives are absolutely unreliable, and they are at risk of rebellion in the future." ”

"And to be honest, the future of African colonization is no worse than the development of Europe, take East Africa as an example, after the development, our East Africa has built a big country by relying on local resources, if it is in Europe, Heixingen will not have this opportunity."

"African land is very easy to get now, but now is also the last window period, especially in Central and West Africa, the competition is much more fierce than in the past when we colonized East Africa, but their colonization is carried out from the west coast of Africa to the inland, so the inland is the breakthrough point of Sigmaringen."

When East Africa was colonized, only the French were the most active in the whole of Africa, and there were no competitors in East Africa, which the Sultanate of Zanzibar made a great contribution.

If it was a few decades ago, during the heyday of the Sultanate of Zanzibar, I am afraid that the colonies in East Africa would not be easy to establish, and the Sultanate of Zanzibar dared to fight at that time, so it was very important to grasp the opportunity.

"Now countries are competing for each other in West Africa, and correspondingly, they are tied up in the coastal areas, but it is not easy to explore inland, so Uncle Carl, it is best for you to complete the construction of the colonial framework in a few years, and you may not even be able to drink soup in a few years later."

"Moreover, these lands, covering an area of more than two million square kilometers, will be able to gain access to the sea in the South Atlantic if the population develops in the future, and the potential will be much greater than in Romania."

Romania certainly has a better climate than Chad as a whole, but the southern part of Chad and Cameroon are no less than Romanian in all respects.

Although the climate in northern Chad and Darfur is arid, it is rich in mineral and petroleum resources, and most of Chad's minerals are distributed in the north.

Romania is best known for its oil resources, which can be said to be Germany's oil depot during World War II. And the most important resource in Chad is also oil, and of course, for France in the previous life, Chad's uranium mines were also important.

So the potential of Chad is quite good, the main thing is that the area is large enough, and today's Romania is not like the previous life that annexed a large part of the Hungarian land, so Chad alone is almost more than ten times the land area of today's Romania, and the area suitable for agriculture in the south of Chad is larger than the whole of Romania.

"No problem, according to what you mean, now it's just to go there first and stake the land, and then you can consolidate your local advantage in the next few years, right?"

"Yes, Uncle Karl, now it's just that you have to move quickly, strike first, you don't have to worry about the population, even if you really can't pull people in Europe, we will definitely manage enough Far Easterners."

Ernst's aim was to squeeze the living space of black Africans through immigration, and it didn't matter whether they were white or yellow, as long as they could separate black Africans from East and West Africa, and to build such a segregation zone, a large population was required.

History has proved that a simple physical separation zone is not easy to use, the Great Wall cannot resist the invasion of northern nomads, the North American border wall cannot stop the Latinos from moving north, and the barbed wire fence on the Myanmar border cannot prevent some people from throwing themselves into the net.

So the best thing to do is to create a buffer zone, and there is no better option than countries with the same culture, and the colony of Sigmaringen will certainly be culturally similar in the future, as in East Africa, with German as the only official language. Sigmaringen also has the best relationship with the Heshingen royal family, and there is no conflict of interest.

Therefore, it is very beneficial for East Africa to have a colonial state in northern East Africa by Sigmaringen, at least the kind of Arab and black refugee flow in Europe in the previous life is not very likely to occur in East Africa, after all, East Africa is not the United States, but the countries around it.

The United States has made the Americas like a quagmire, and of course it will be polluted by backlash, as is the case with drugs and smuggling.

These two problems have no impact on the capitalists and politicians in the United States, but it is self-evident how harmful they are to the American people at the bottom.

Therefore, Ernst does not want to make the surrounding countries of East Africa too bad in the future, this is the same as society, a good neighbor is always comfortable, and a bad neighbor is probably the same as the countries around the Far Eastern Empire, but even then the Far Eastern Empire has to maintain a fragile neighborhood relationship, after all, the war around it will also affect the economic and investment environment of the Far Eastern Empire.

Ernst doesn't want to be neighbors with black countries, not to mention that many black countries do not have enough governance, some black people in West Africa have enmity with East Africa, and many of them were driven out of East Africa, so it is better not to get too close.
