Chapter 619 Seized
"Company commander, there is something under this car!" the soldier who was counting the goods reported to Blanca.
"What is it?"
"Packed in a wooden box, it looks like a wooden box of the type used for munitions."
Blanca walked in and took a look. He said to Romon: "Since you have been captured, don't be so clever. Tell everything you know clearly. I will not allow this to happen a second time."
Seeing this, Romon had no choice but to say: "It is true that some of the supplies here are arms, which are transported from Beltfontein to Boschof, but you don't have to think too much, our line is just a small branch. , so there aren't many important supplies."
Blanca didn't have the patience to listen to Romon's explanation. He asked his subordinates to pry open the wooden box and take out a Warndell rifle.
"This gun looks brand new, has not been used at all, and is well maintained. You can still get something like this!"
"With money, none of this is a problem. Similarly, we can also spend money to get British rifles, and they are from the mine owners in Kimberley." At this point, Romon showed a proud smile.
"Huh, let's not mention the UK. This batch of weapons of yours must have been provided by East Africa. After all, you guys came from Beltfontein, which is our control area. You just came here with such arrogance?"
"Haha, arrogance is out of the question, but the officers in Beltfontein are easier to deal with than you. As I said before, there is nothing that money can't solve. To be honest, it can't be done in the Transvaal Restoration Army. It's really strange to see someone like you." Romon said sarcastically. Of course, the object of his sarcasm was the Transvaal Restoration Army, not Blanca personally.
"I'll just think you're complimenting us!" Blanca said unhappily.
Being interrupted by Romon, he also felt as if he was on a pirate ship. Although he knew before that the military discipline of the Transvaal Restoration Army was not ideal, but psychologically speaking, this was the case for most armies in this era.
However, it is still eye-opening for Blanca to sell out national interests and provide convenience to the enemy as "one of our own". If this is the case, Blanca's expectations for this war will be very negative.
Because the Transvaal Restoration Army could not really block the connection between the Orangemen and the East Africans, even if all the Transvaal men, women, and children went into battle, it would not be possible, let alone the current Transvaal people. There are already scum here, including the British, the biggest financial backers, who are very unreliable.
The Orange Free State borders East Africa on three sides. To the north and west, the Transvaal may intervene. The west, especially the northwest, is completely in the hands of the Orange. In this way, if East Africa wholeheartedly supports the Orange , that the Transvaal might not have the means to organize.
As for the important southwestern town of Kimberley, the British were stronger than the Transvaal, but the mineral owners and businessmen clearly chose their own interests.
Seeing Blanca's gloomy expression, Romon smiled and said: "Now you regret it! So you might as well pretend not to see us. In the end result of this war, we will definitely win."
"Humph, I admit that there are a lot of scum in the Transvaal Restoration Army, but I'm afraid you Orangemen are no less willing to make concessions. This can be seen from the movement of the battle lines, so everyone is only half-matched." Bran Ka countered.
Although I feel very humiliated by the performance of the Transvaal Restoration Army and the British, I am now one of them, so I still have to defend it.
And what Blanca said is right, the performance of the Transvaal Restoration Army and the Orange Free Resistance Army is really at the same level. The eldest brother, let alone the second brother.
There is serious corruption within the Transvaal Republic Army. Although the Orange Free Resistance Army may be better in this regard, their leaderless state is, in Blanca's view, even more dangerous than the Transvaal Republic Army. It's easy to be defeated individually.
Afterwards, Blanca was too lazy to tease Romon. He ordered: "Collect all the corpses and take them back for burial. Reload the food and munitions into the truck. Let's go back." Halfway through, Blanca and his group met another man. The two Varsianos and Dicken who stayed where they were still didn't know who had leaked the news.
"Walshanu, you bastard, I have no enmity with you! Why do you want to harm me?"
"Di Kaiwen, it's meaningless to say this. Why am I trying to harm you? It's obviously you who wants to collude with the White Bandits. And isn't this true? You still have the nerve to question me!"
"Huh, I didn't expect there to be a villain like you in the village. This time I admit defeat."
"Don't say it so harshly. Our relationship is not always good. People as arrogant as you look down on me. So don't think that everyone will accommodate you like your father and your two brothers. You say you have nothing to do. If you get involved in the military, you will reap the consequences now!"
"You..." Dicken did not expect Varshanu to say this. This was simply more uncomfortable than killing him.
"What are you? Now it depends on how you end up. This time, you will be charged with colluding with gangsters. It depends on how you face your father, and if one of you is not good, if your family is implicated, then the people in the village will But it's just a joke!"
"Hmph, do you think everyone in the village is like a **** like you? Everyone is usually very nice."
"Haha, that's not because your father is the village chief. If I had a father who was a village chief, the people in the village would definitely only say good things to me!"
"Would you believe it? With your character and style of conduct."
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Anyway, I can bear the gossip behind my back, but you, I don't know if you can survive this time, otherwise you will definitely see another face of the villagers."
The two people were arguing back and forth.
Blanca had to stop her: "Stop yelling. If there is any conflict, you can argue enough when we go back. Also, this is a very serious matter. Kevin Dick, don't be young and arrogant. Cooperate well." For our work, we might even be able to get a reduced sentence."
"Thank you, but I'm just a pawn. I really don't have access to too many military secrets. If you want to get any useful information from me, I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult." In response to Blanca's kind words, Dickay Wen could only answer truthfully.
"You're not even a pawn, I am." Romon joked.
In the next few days, Blanca sent people to pass the news back to Bloemfontein, and then Bloemfontein sent people to the village of Florisbad to verify the situation.
Blanca and his company were credited with a great achievement, and Varsiano got his wish and was appointed by the Transvaal people as the new mayor of Florisbad Village. As for Dicken's father, he still saved his son's life after hemorrhage. Monze was taken back by the people from Bloemfontein.
The Bloemfontein side plans to dig deep into the Lomond line this time and check the arms transaction between the Orange Freedom Resistance Army and East Africa to that point, so as to make the next strategic deployment.
Although Romon was just a little pawn, he worked for five months, so he had a lot of supplies in his hands. He also traveled through a wide area and had many exchanges, so the Transvaal people could still get a lot of high-quality intelligence. It can provide reference to the small Transvaal court in Bloemfontein.
