Chapter 536 Spy

The first town and city railway station.

"Woo..." A long whistle sounded, and a luxury train slowly drove into the platform. Because the news was received in advance, the train station was under martial law.

This is the second time martial law has been imposed at the First Town Railway Station. The last time was because Constantine visited East Africa in person, so the passengers on the train were obviously important people.

As the train stopped in front of the platform, the police officer opened the door with his own hands and a group of people got out of the car, but the last person who appeared was an old man who was in good spirits - Prince Carl Anton.

"Play music!" Following the command of the commander-in-chief of the East African Military Band, the East African national anthem sounded. Now the East African Military Band is no longer a grassroots group, so the majestic music sounded and was full of rhythm. There was no mistake like the last time when Prince Constantine was greeted. occur.

Looking at the magnificent First Town Railway Station under construction, Karl Anton was still in a daze. This had a huge impact on him. The royal family of Hechingen did not have such a card when they were in Europe. Now, He was convinced that the royal family of Hechingen was really prosperous!

In fact, when he landed from Dar es Salaam, Karl Anton had already realized what a vast world the Hechingen royal family had created in Africa.

Dar es Salaam can be considered a medium-large city in Europe. Even the two principalities of Hechingen and Sigmaringen combined are not as big as Dar es Salaam. And Dar es Salaam The city of Lamu is just a tiny piece of East Africa.

Along the way from Dar es Salaam to the First Town, Karl Anton saw the rural scenes of East Africa. As the earliest developed area in East Africa, the rural areas of Central Province are no different from most areas in Europe, and even The level has reached or exceeded the German average level.

German agriculture is relatively top-notch in Europe in the current era. Junker landowners have invested relatively heavily in agriculture, and the level of Central Province in East African agriculture is also top-notch.

Especially in the construction of water conservancy facilities, the criss-crossing rivers and canals and dotted lakes and reservoirs have made Central Province a veritable land of plenty.

 At the same time, the rural construction in Central Province is also quite reasonable. Farmland, villages, and houses are orderly and well-planned. Rural roads are smooth and developed, with herds of cattle and sheep, and transportation such as oxen and horse-drawn carriages are developed.

The development level of a country can be seen from the countryside. It is obvious that the rural construction in East Africa (Central Province) is also among the more developed agricultural sectors in the world.

As the most developed province in East Africa, one thing that must be noted is that the area of Central Province is about 180,000 square kilometers. This area is already larger than that of many medium-sized countries in Europe. Therefore, after the agricultural development of Central Province , it can reach the level of ordinary European countries.

The area of the Central Province alone is almost twice that of Portugal. That is to say, the population of the Central Province is not as good as that of Portugal. Therefore, there is no complaint about Portugal losing to East Africa. The strength of the Central Province alone can be compared with that of Portugal. As a Colonial Mozambique was even less able to compete with East Africa.

At present, except for a few top-ranked powerful countries, most countries in the world still rely on agriculture to make a living. The degree of agricultural development determines the wealth of most countries. This is especially typical of Argentina and the United States. Indian agriculture has a great influence on the British. Under construction, it was quite good, but most of India's agricultural profits were divided by the British and Indian princes and nobles, making life very difficult for the lower class people.

As for the population of East Africa, although it has reached more than 30 million, the population size of East Africa also allowed Ernst to understand why the Far Eastern Empire had a strong and prosperous Tang Dynasty. In particular, there were historical records in the Tang Dynasty that people did not pick up things on the road and did not close their homes at night.

East Africa is in this state. Of course, there is a big difference between East Africa and the Tang Dynasty, that is, East Africa is a slave country. The existence of slavery does make East Africa very comfortable. This is what the citizens of the ancient Roman Empire felt. It should be deeper. Of course, the citizens of East Africa are not of high consciousness, but they have money but nowhere to spend it. The areas bordering East Africa are generally far behind East Africa, so there is no market for crimes such as theft and robbery in East Africa, and there is no place to sell stolen goods.

However, it is impossible for East Africa to have no problems at all. In fact, economic crimes still exist in open areas. As long as there is contact with the world, some people will naturally be bribed.

In the open zone, there are frequent areas where intelligence agents from countries such as the United Kingdom and Portugal often contact East African civilians or local officials through consumption, and use money to bribe East African citizens.

The open area is also a port, so there are more ships from various countries, and traitors who betrayed the intelligence of East African countries can be arranged to escape from East Africa.

 Last year, East African police cracked four espionage cases in Dar es Salaam and Mombasa, most of whom were white.

This is not surprising at all. The world that white people are exposed to is wider than that of Chinese people, especially areas like Europe where there are many countries.

East Africa can provide enough food and clothing for most people, but some people pursue getting rich. Obviously, there are not as many opportunities in East Africa as in the United States.

The United Kingdom and Portugal can provide them with the opportunity to leave East Africa, and can also arrange national citizenship for them, so they can make a fortune and escape at the same time. In this case, some people will definitely take risks.

Of course, there were times when British and Portuguese intelligence officers were frustrated. When they encountered vigilant East African civilians, they reported back, which led to the discovery of some traitors in East Africa.

As for foreign spies, there is really no good way to punish them. Most of them are mobile cases. They stay briefly in open areas as businessmen and sailors. If they are caught, there will be people behind them to protect them. As long as they insist that they are not engaged in espionage, there is no evidence. Under such circumstances, East Africa cannot approve arrests.

This group of people is very cunning. They obtain intelligence through cash transactions and only give verbal promises to traitors, so East Africa can only control its idiots more.

The reason why I say this is because the British are not philanthropic. In most cases, they will not fulfill their promises, or they will not fulfill all their promises, and most of the people they contact are ordinary people in East Africa, even at the official level. Not enough, so it's hard to get valuable intelligence.

In this case, most East African traitors can only get a small amount of cash. As for nationality, forget about nationality. If they get on a pirate ship, they will probably be thrown into the sea by the British, so that the money will return to the UK. In the hands of others, continue with the next transaction.

All in all, smart people generally won't be fooled, but fools are fooled, and there is no use value. The UK will not keep this group of freeloaders without use value. It is best for them to feed the sharks in the sea. destination.

Intelligence work in East Africa is difficult. This is the consensus of British intelligence personnel. East Africa is really too closed. Even East African citizens in the open area are managed very strictly, even more strictly than citizens in landlocked East Africa.

This aspect of East Africa is similar to North Korea in its previous life. Some state-run hotels in North Korea receive foreign tourists, and those waiters are strictly managed. The same is true in East Africa. Service staff in open areas are subject to strict scrutiny every day.
