"With the blessing of a large number of black slaves, our country had just built the road between the northern mountains of South Africa and the former Kruger area of ​​Mozambique, and finally connected the main castles in the Governor's jurisdiction over land"

"The Golden Valley is just as its name suggests, and there are a large amount of gold mines there. The reason why our jurisdiction can maintain self-sufficiency is that gold is one of the two major sources, and the other is naturally the slave trade"

"However, in order to continue to immigrate here, our jurisdiction suggests that the railway connecting the main castles should be built, so that the Golden Valley can truly play a role and can also give full play to the advantages of Palabolua, which is rich in copper mines."

Qitade thought for a while, "It's right. Since you have a large number of black slaves here, our country can inject capital into it, so use the railway and train as capital. I will also bring engineers from the Ministry of Industry and Mining this time, and you can help them get there first.

Explore, plan”

"After the railway is built, a large coal, iron and copper composite can be set up in the Golden Valley, and the steam engines, rails and related equipment can be started to be produced by itself"

"By the way, how are your military forces preparing?"

The army is directly under the Governor, and Weng Ketai replied: "It has been reorganized and has been reorganized into two divisions. In addition to the power of a regiment stationed in the big city, a large number of soldiers have been completely laid down, and the militias

The power of the company temporarily stabilizes the internal situation”

"Although there are many natives and very fierce, they are not unified, and they all act independently, which is just convenient for us to defeat each other"

"For example, the Zulu people who were originally entrenched on the eastern coast were deliberately driven inland by us. Now they are fighting with the Swazis and Basudo people. Their strength is almost the same. The war is obviously protracted and ends with the population.

The scale will definitely drop sharply”

"The only concern is that Mohaqiang, the chief of Southern Zulu, and Molomi, the chief of Northern Zulu, is quite capable, especially Molomi, the northern Zulu, is quite famous. He is obviously from European colonists and our country.

I learned a lot here”

"He has formed his tribe members according to the regulations of the military advisor brigade battalion, and now he has occupied the capital occupied by the Swazis. Of course, it is just a group of thatched huts surrounded by earth, and they are called Mbabane."

"But there are mountains nearby. Although the Swazis were defeated, most of them retreated to the mountains. It is not easy for the Northern Zulu people to kill them all."

"But Molomi's victory gave him greater prestige, and a large number of Zulu people from other places began to go to Swaziland to join him, further expanding his strength. Now his sphere of influence has expanded to Maputo

The northern mountainous region between the Golden Valley”

(Molomi, the founder of the Zulu Kingdom in later generations, Chaka, Zulu's master, son of Mohaqiang, the chief of Southern Zulu)

“Molomi’s strength has allowed us to connect the road between the Golden Valley and the copper base Palaboruwa, which has been severely affected”

"Influenced by Molomi, Mohaqiang of Southern Zulu also boosted his morale and also destroyed the Kingdom of Basut, drove the rest of the territory to the mountains, and there was a tendency to occupy the entire southern mountain range."

"In addition, the Xhosa people who remained north of the Orange River gradually became united, and they began to gather together to attack the villages and immigrants on both sides of our roads. They were all moving at night, and they were rugged here.

Plateau, inconvenient pursuit, it is a headache”

"The Tswana people in the Golden Valley are honest. Our country has built schools there and selected excellent Tswana teenagers to enroll. By the way, they call themselves Ngoni people. Tswana is the name of white people, in South Africa

There is also a large area called Botswana by the Portuguese”

"I guess it's the Tswanan nest"

"Currently, there are about 100,000 Tswana people in the Golden Valley, about half of which are under the jurisdiction of our country, and 50,000 are scattered on the vast grasslands. Their level of civilization is above all ethnic groups, they can settle down and farm, and can also accumulate a large number of them.

Livestock”

"At present, we have set up an Ngoni Cavalry regiment in Igobi, all of which are suitable teenagers who came out of Truchen School, and have issued muskets and sabers to them, mainly responsible for patrols and patrols in areas not controlled by our jurisdiction."

Qitad nodded, "Bloemfontein, no, no, Mongolian city needs to be expanded, imitate the strategy of dealing with the Engunis, attract suitable Xhosa teenagers to school, and then set up Xhosa Cavalry Regiment."

/p>

"In addition, it is too empty between the Golden Valley and Mongolia, and a castle needs to be set up in the middle"

"Some," Adil replied, "There is also a tributary of the Orange River in the middle of which is the Fett River, where the whites have a small stronghold, and now only one missionary is wasting their time there, they took one

The name is Welcomb. Due to energy problems, our country only set up a company of defenders there”

"At present, there are only one hundred immigrant herdsmen nearby, and no farmers have entered"

Qitade said: "Since it is planning a railway, and it is mostly grassland areas, we should just consider the railway planning, connect the Golden Valley with Mongolia, and if we immigrate, we will arrange some farmers along the river. Of course,

Mainly plant drought-tolerant crops”

"Since the Zulus showed signs of unity, then ignore them and stabilize the Tswana and Xhosa areas first. To build castles in these two gatherings, industrial products can be exchanged for

Their labor, plus a portion of black slaves, is enough”

"By the way, I will use Zulu slaves a lot to make the Tswana and Xhosa do things for us honestly in their inner fear"

"Also, since the Swazis and Basudo people have been defeated by the Zulus and have become their great enemy, why not contact them quickly?"

Onktai's eyes lit up, "The Father meant to let us unite with the Swazis, and the Basudo defeated the Zulus in exchange for their trust in us?"

Qitad waved his hand, "It's more than that. You all know our usual practices. We don't need their chiefs, and after restoring their old lands, we will immediately build municipal districts in Basut, Swaziland,

Take the Basut and Swazi teenagers into their pockets”

"We already have Gauteng in the Tswana area, plus the Mongol province of Xhosa. If there are Swaziland and Basudo two areas controlled by us, we will be able to have the largest number of people.

The Zulu people separated and then slowly looked at them.

"Since people like Molomi have appeared among the Zulu people, we must be the first to target them, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"

"In this way, from tomorrow on the vast area north of the Orange River spread rumors, that the Zulus had a wise leader, Molomi, who was attracting other tribes to Swazi with extremely superior conditions.

Lan and Basudo”

"In another half a year, it is estimated that a large number of native blacks will gather in these two places. Then you are attacking the Swazis and Bastu people inside and outside, completely annihilated them, so that they can obtain both land and a large amount of harvest.

The slave of

"The railway from the Golden Valley to Mongolia is planned first, and the road will be built before this, otherwise the components required by the railway will not be transferred"
