The Rise of Australia

Starting from September, almost all the great powers fell into a relatively busy state. This is also a good thing for Australasia. This is one of the few golden periods of development, and it is also the best time for Australasia to catch up with established powers like Britain and France.

As the most important industrial base in Australasia, the construction of the fourth phase of the Leonora Industrial Base has naturally attracted the attention of Arthur and the entire government.

In fact, when the Leonora Industrial Base first started construction, there was only a third-phase construction plan, and there was no so-called fourth-phase construction plan.

However, the 550,000 jobs provided by the third phase of the construction plan can no longer meet the development needs of Australasia, and the construction of more and larger industrial bases has become an urgent matter.

Compared with the previous three-phase construction plan, the fourth phase of the Leonora Industrial Base construction plan has been expanded several times in scale during planning.

The first three phases can only provide a total of 550,000 jobs, and the construction of the fourth phase of the industrial base can provide more than 750,000 jobs, which is more than the total of the first three phases of industrial bases combined.

Because of this, the construction period and scale of the fourth phase industrial base will far exceed the current scale of the existing construction site.

The fourth phase of industrial construction alone has planned more than 13,000 acres of land, which is equivalent to 52% of the land. This shows the huge scale.

Thanks to such a large-scale land use plan, the fourth phase of the industrial base construction also has more than 2,500 acres of green area, artificial ecological environment, drainage, environmental protection and road facilities. While developing industry, we strive to minimize the impact on the environment.

The remaining 10,500 acres are basically factory buildings, storage areas, and various ancillary areas.

The fourth phase of the industrial base has more than workshops and more than 120 large storage areas, and the roads have also been widened to facilitate the transportation of materials in the industrial base. New ℴ𝓂

The fourth phase of the industrial base is also connected to the train station, ensuring that various resources can be transported to the industrial base relatively smoothly and conveniently, and then transported in a more detailed manner by trucks.

It is estimated that the construction of the fourth phase of the industrial base will be able to accommodate 500 very large factories and thousands of small factories, with a total number of employees of more than 750,000.

Such a huge construction plan also extended the construction time of the fourth phase industrial base to more than three years.

This also means that it will take at least three years for the fourth phase industrial base to be put into use.

It will take another four to five years to be fully operational.

Once the entire Leonora Industrial Base is fully operational, it goes without saying how important a huge industrial base with more than 1.3 million jobs will be to Australasia.

The current Leonora Industrial Base accounts for more than 40% of Australasia's industrial production value.

If you include the fourth phase of construction that has already started, the output value of Leonora Industrial Base can even account for most of Australasia's total output value. It is not an exaggeration to say that Australasia is the industrial heart.

In order to protect such an important area, more than one regiment of troops was stationed near the Leonora Industrial Base, responsible for protecting the industrial base.

There is also a no-fly zone over the industrial base, and an air force team is stationed not far from the industrial base to protect the safety over the industrial base.

The good news is that the Leonora Industrial Base is located in Western Australia, in the hinterland of Australasia, and is relatively safe.

Unlike the Ruhr area in Germany, the Leonora Industrial Base basically does not have to worry about external threats.

From the three aspects of sea, land and air, it will not pose any threat to the Leonora Industrial Base.

The closest enemy territory to the Leonora industrial base was the Dutch East Indies, but it was more than 2,000 kilometers away. new

It is impossible for current aircraft to achieve a range of 2,000 kilometers. Without transfer stations and supply points along the way, it is impossible for aircraft from any country except Australasia to reach the sky above the Honora Industrial Base.

The navy is also unlikely to pose a threat to the Leonora industrial base inland. As for the Army's landing in Australasia, this is also very difficult. After all, it must first defeat the Australasian Navy and Air Force, and break through the Australasian Army's defense.

When building the Leonora Industrial Base, the reason why the industrial base was located in Leonora was not only that this area had relatively rich mineral resources, but also that it was inland and had a relatively high safety factor. .

After all, coastal cities have certain hidden dangers compared to inland cities. After all, if the enemy navy is too powerful, as long as the Australasian navy can be suppressed at the port, it can pose a threat to seaside cities.

The construction of industrial bases requires a lot of manpower, and the indigenous people staying in Sulawesi came in handy at this time.

The millions of indigenous people in Sulawesi are Australasia's reserve of manpower, and they are also the reserve cannon fodder for the Australasian army before the population reaches an ideal number.

With the start of the fourth phase of the Leonora Industrial Base, hundreds of thousands of indigenous people were recruited and transported to do hard work near the Leonora Industrial Base.

There is no need to worry about these indigenous people being disobedient. Compared with the indigenous people who were previously hidden in the mountains, these indigenous tribes who were restricted to Sulawesi Island are easier to control.

As long as they disobey, their family members living in the tribe will also suffer.

Australasia has never been kind to the indigenous people. Although it is not that cruel, it is necessary to kill chickens and respect monkeys among the indigenous people and deal with some typical examples seriously.

While the construction of Australasia was in full swing, a certain surrounding area of ​​Australasia was also plotting earth-shattering events.

"Your Excellency, President of the Senate, is there any news from Australasia?" In the office of the President of the Philippine Senate, a middle-aged man who looked strong and bearded looked at Manuel expectantly and asked.

"Not yet, Emond. How is the armed force of the army? How many manpower have been raised so far?" Manuel shook his head, but asked immediately.

"We have gathered more than 2,000 men, and after a brief training, they have initially acquired combat effectiveness. Mr. Senate President, we have a better army than during the American-Philippine War, and with the support of Australasians, we are absolutely capable Turn over those damn Americans." A strong man named Emond said with pride.

Manuel participated in the Philippine War of Independence and the Philippine-American War. He had a good reputation in the Philippine rebel army and the political arena, and was an excellent politician and military strategist.

The strong man named Emond was Manuel's partner during the Revolutionary War. He is currently Manuel's most confidant and also controls the Philippine Independent Revolutionary Army founded by Manuel.

Manuel smiled and nodded on the surface, but actually sighed inwardly.

A careless person like Emond has no idea that Australasia is not that kind.

Even if the Philippines can get rid of a ruler like the United States, Australasia will never let the Philippines go easily.

"How's the investigation going on the other two forces I asked you to investigate?" Manuel didn't say much, but focused on the topics he cared about.

"It has been investigated clearly, Mr. Senate President. The other two forces that have contact with the Australasians are Walid Jadali's Philippine Free Army and Sandro Botticelli's Philippines Independent Legion.

The Philippine Free Army has about 500 people, and the Independent Legion has about 1,000 people.

They should also have arms support from Australasia, and if the Philippines succeeds in becoming independent, they will become our direct competitors. "Emond replied.

Australasia's intelligence agency will not only find one force. Firstly, it will distract the attention of the Americans. Secondly, it will split the united Philippines into several forces to facilitate future rule of the Philippines.

Manuel is definitely the largest force in the Philippines and the individual with the highest reputation and status.

No way, Manuel's personal experience is too luxurious. As early as the Philippine War of Independence, he was already one of the leaders of the Philippine revolutionary team.

After becoming the President of the Philippine Senate, Manuel's status in Philippine politics has been greatly improved, and he has almost no opponents.

Because of this, under Manuel's call, more than 2,000 soldiers were easily gathered, which was far more than the 500 and 1,000 soldiers of other forces.

After hearing the information that Edmund said, Manuel nodded without surprise, but he was making plans in his heart.

The size of the armies of the three largest independent forces in the Philippines is somewhat intriguing.

It is true that the Independent Revolutionary Army controlled by Manuel is the largest force, but the other two forces combined are not much different, and Australasians are destined not to let Manuel have all the say.

With Americans as their biggest enemies, the three independent forces will temporarily share their hatred and work together to resist American rule.

Once the Philippines succeeds in independence, some hidden problems will break out between the three forces, causing the Philippines, which should have been united as one, to split into several forces.

How can we gain the greatest say in the post-independence Philippine government? For this to happen, having the support of Australasians is essential.

This is also the tragedy of small and weak countries. Sometimes the fate of small and weak countries cannot be controlled by themselves. It mainly depends on which force they belong to and the strategic plans of the powerful countries to which that force belongs.
