Chapter 636 Sharing the Pressure


Chapter 636 Sharing the Pressure

The Hessian Railway is divided into two parts, one is the northern section of the Central Railway, and the other is the central and western section of the Northern Railway. The central and western section of the Northern Railway has always been a project that Prince Karl is personally tracking.

Now that the railway department has given the green light that construction of the central and western sections of the Northern Railway can start, Prince Carl is the most excited. After all, this railway is related to the development of the royal territory of Sigmaringen.

So early in the morning, Prince Carl ran to Constantine to ask about the details. As for Ernst, who is still in Europe, he naturally can't offer much experience.

"Brother, how long do you expect the railway construction to start this time?" Prince Carl said straight to the point.

Constantine: “According to past experience, if we go all out, it can be completed in two or three years. However, this railway is very different from the railways built in East Africa in the past. The amount of work is huge, and so many projects now require people. , so I can’t give you an accurate time, but the time given by the Ministry of Railways is four to five years.”

“Four to five years, isn’t it too long?”

"The Ministry of Railways has said that the engineering problems are not bad, mainly because the railway must undergo a large number of tests before it is opened, because the area the railway passes through is very risky and may face the risk of floods, mudslides and landslides at any time, so They need to eliminate these safety hazards before the railway is put into operation, and this involves changes to some lines, or even major modifications. "

Tropical railways, especially railways in tropical rainforest areas, are so troublesome to build. The situation in East Africa is relatively good. In the Amazon rainforest, where even a railway cannot be built, it is more convenient to just take a boat.

In the past, the edge of the Congo rainforest was much stronger than the Amazon rainforest, and had a larger population than the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. However, the basin terrain also caused heavy water accumulation downstream. This is one of the reasons why East Africa focused on development on the edge of the Congo basin.

"This year, for the development of the Sigmaringen Royal Territory, we deliberately recruited more people from the Far East so that we can quickly replace the black people in the Sigmaringen Royal Territory. After all, black people are unstable factors. Even in East Africa, they are only temporary. Use them, otherwise the situation will definitely turn against the guests.”

Under the influence of Ernst day after day, Constantine also agreed with this truth, that is, black people are uncontrollable factors and should not be controlled. Blinded by short-term interests.

“Brother, I don’t have any idea in this regard, but I definitely take what you say seriously.” Prince Carl said.

It’s okay if you don’t agree. After all, the development of the royal territory of Sigmaringen now depends on East Africa, so the value concept of East Africa is the value concept of the royal territory of Sigmaringen. Otherwise, why would East Africa give up such a large area? a piece of land.

“I am doing this all for the benefit of my family. If you look at the Americans, their ancestors probably could not have imagined that one day slaves would become masters. The Mamluks of Egypt were also slaves who became masters of the country. This is not the case in the Americas. This has happened in many countries, and even Haiti has become a black country. ”

What Constantine said was an exaggeration. Although black people in the United States were liberated, they were far from the point where they could stand up and make decisions. Many black people did gain freedom, but they also lost their livelihoods.

In this way, black people will continue to enter the gray and black industries in the United States and contribute to the social security of the United States.

“If they have any special talents, then it’s OK. Now the United States and other countries are in a mess. In the future, black people will only become an important group tearing apart the United States because they cannot integrate into American society at all. "Of course, this has nothing to do with those of us in power, but black people are indeed not the ideal ruling class, and their degree of civilization is too weak. After all, black people in the United States have been planted in the Americas. Cotton that has been around for hundreds of years, like the black people in Africa, has not gotten rid of the stage of eating hair and drinking blood. "If you want to change the living habits and moral concepts of a backward group, the cost is huge, and the cost of time alone is huge, even in East Africa. I don’t want to pay, so the simplest and most effective way is to completely eliminate these hidden dangers from East Africa. As the northern barrier of East Africa, the royal territory of Sigmaringen naturally needs to be consistent with East Africa, otherwise all the work in East Africa will be in vain.

However, East Africa may not have the idea of ​​using the royal territory of Sigmaringen as a future population reservoir, which is certainly not harmful to East Africa.

If the population of the royal territory of Sigmaringen increases, then they can completely crowd out the local black people, thus forming an isolation zone in northern East Africa. This is the same as "planting crops to remove weeds in the fields" It's the same, and it's a steady stream of methods.

“This year we have relaxed some immigration restrictions, so we may recruit hundreds of thousands more people than last year. This is part of the purpose of supporting the development of your Sigmaringen royal territory.” Constantine said.

In fact, this is also due to the shortage of people in Somalia's "Eurasian Fruit Basket Project", so by the way, East Africa has relaxed its immigration standards this year.

Constantine continued: "However, I still need to make it clear to you in advance. That is, the influx of a large number of Chinese immigrants into the royal territory of Sigmalingen may not be a good thing. White immigrants must also keep up. This We in East Africa are powerless, so you ask Carol I to think of more solutions.”

"The European immigration industry is very sluggish right now. In fact, other immigrants don't matter. There is just a shortage of German immigrants. Otherwise, I wouldn't be worried." Prince Karl said.

“I have a way. There are many Germanized Slavs in the southern part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. As long as you can guarantee the control of the Sigmaringen royal family territory, the Germanization can be carried out stably. Among them, the most The important thing is to arm yourself,” Constantine suggested.

In the colonial era of East Africa, it was the army that maintained stability in East Africa, and then used the army to ensure the development of various tasks.

Nowadays, the development of East Africa is obviously more focused on the economy, and the military development is becoming more and more rational. After all, East Africa is not Germany. It is surrounded by powerful enemies, and there is also France, a mortal enemy, who is ready to take revenge at any time.

In other words, East Africa is increasingly transitioning to a normal country, but the Royal Territory of Sigmalingen does not need to be like this, and it should also pay attention to military construction.

Now the Royal Territory of Sigmaringen is a primary colony, and it does not matter if the governance methods are simple and crude. What's more, the Royal Territory of Sigmaringen faces no fewer competitors than East Africa. It is already close to West Africa, France, Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom, Germany, The Netherlands is...very complicated.

After all, it is the birthplace of the black slave trade. It is also known as the Gold Coast and the Ivory Coast. It is the earliest colonized area in Africa. The forces are quite complex. This is why Ernst chose East Africa as the location to start his business. , because West Africa is too curly.

However, compared with East Africa, the conditions in West Africa are indeed not bad. There are basically no shortcomings in various resources. If it were not for the mineral resources of Matabele and Hechingen provinces, the conditions in East Africa would still be poor. It's really not as good as West Africa.

Constantine suggested that Prince Carl form an army. This was also for the sake of family interests. In the previous life, the French power had penetrated deep into Chad, and East Africa could not always help Sigmaringen to guard the homeland. East Africa itself has a long border and national defense. The pressure is not small, and the royal family territory of Sigmalingen is expected to grow to share the pressure.
