Chapter 1544 The development of Southeast Asia

The war situation in Australia has produced changes that are beneficial to China, which China did not expect. In China's view, Australia itself is a production area. Before the outbreak of the war, it will export 3 million tons of grain and 500,000 tons of beef and mutton every year. The Australian population will have more than 180% of the food self-sufficiency rate. In other words, 80% of the food rations. This food self-sufficiency rate has really not taken into account that Australia will lose food. However, in front of the reality, Australia does not rely on scientific cultivation to obtain a higher rate of food supply. It relies more on a huge area and Tianzhongtian harvest. Under the premise that large tracts of territory are occupied by China, Australia's food has begun to decrease. Although with the large population decrease, the total population decrease is not large compared to the land.

At the beginning, Australia was a little tired of being beaten by China. When it was discovered that China's goals were all food, it also consciously realized that China had discovered Australia's weaknesses. Even if it was at the worst level, it had to make a choice. For this reason, Australia gave up one border after another and decisively cut off its arm to survive. This is the most helpless and correct choice.

The United Kingdom and the United States have also provided necessary support, and cannot guarantee smooth exchanges. It is still possible to ensure 3 10,000 tons of cargo ships every month. 50,000 tons of grain is basically guaranteed to continue. However, in the end, everyone knows that continuous bloodletting will cause Australia's resistance to stagnation. They will fall soon. Maybe in the next battle, the Chinese face the core area and launch a large-scale war, and Australia will fall.

Unlike the Australian senior management, who was in a panic all day long, the war situation in Australia was smooth and Zhang Xiaohuai's steadyness received unanimous praise from the senior management. China did not give up on Australia's construction while the war was in war. A large number of materials and machinery were transported to Australia. The first batch and subsequent immigrants also began to arrive. The Chinese once again started a new journey of life in a foreign country. However, this time, every effort of Chinese immigrants in history was different. China had the support of the country and used powerful state machines to protect immigrants. I believe that in a few years, or more than ten years, this time, it will be developed into a paradise by the Chinese.

In terms of the strength of China and Australia, China has an absolute advantage. From the beginning of the Australian battlefield, the top Chinese leaders unanimously recognized this point, carefully prepared and suddenly attacked. In the eyes of the top Chinese leaders, no matter who commanded it, there is no reason to fail. However, the process of the war is much better than all previous expectations. Zhang Xiaohuai is the commander who is most suitable for Australian strategy. If any other general comes, if he leads his army, victory will definitely win, and even faster than Zhang Xiaohuai. It may be able to win Australia in less than half a year, but the losses are also huge, at least 300,000 yuan as the base, or even some radical ones will lose more than 500,000 yuan, or even more. Unlike Zhang Xiaohuai, after entering Australia, the total loss is only about 8,400 people.

Among the 8,400 people who lost, less than a quarter of them were casualties, and the rest were minor and serious injuries and severe injuries and disabled people, which totaled no more than 3,300 people. Such casualties, compared with the first batch of 1.2 million and the subsequent large number of troops stationed in the Australian battlefield, are not even considered as fur. A army of 70,000 people, and so much loss cannot be called injury. What's more, the Australian Front is at least 20 units. Such losses may be infringed in one division, which is really rare.

When Yang Yuanzhao opened Baotou, he always paid attention to casualties and did not fight against his opponents. The reason is that Baotou's foundation is weak, but now China has a 30 million square kilometers of land and a population of 700,800 million, and a one-time loss of 300,000 to 500,000 yuan. This cannot shake China's foundation at all. The mobilization ability of more than 60 million is more than 100 million. 300,000 is really a trivial number. If you don't control the soldiers, you always care about the losses of soldiers.

I am afraid that it will not be able to fight a big battle, but in Yang Yuanzhao's view, China's foundation is too weak, so he has tried his best to increase China's population base. The losses that can be avoided are better. Whether it is to send Japan to Alaska or Zhang Xiaohuai to Australia, it is all for this. China's current foundation, as long as it takes a rest, it will be at most ten years, and the foundation is deep and irreversible. Although it is now confident to consume, it can consume less and consume less.

Now Zhang Xiaohuai has completed this task well. Not only did he take over Australia's huge territory with the minimum loss, but he also gradually weakened his opponents. As long as there was no major problem, at most by 1917, they would completely take down the entire territory of Australia, and finally include such a piece of land located in Oceania, with a total of more than 7 million square kilometers into China's territory. When Australia takes over, New Zealand and the islands affiliated to Australia will basically become China's possessions.

Small-scale conflicts still did not stop, but large-scale military confrontations were almost gone. China did not want to fight, so it was temporarily restored, waiting for logistics to be supplemented, and laying a good foundation for the subsequent battle. Australia was unable to fight. It was just a small-scale conflict that left Australia exhausted. How could they attack the heavily guarded Chinese camp? Australia's battlefield began to withdraw from China's sight.

From Australia to the north and cross the equator, it is Southeast Asia. This was once Lan Fang, who used Lan Fang as an excuse to form an alliance with Germany and joined the sequence of allies earlier than China, and suddenly became a thorn in the flesh of the Allies. Unfortunately, the Allies at that time had no power to interfere in Southeast Asia, especially the United Kingdom, who were somewhat afraid that China would attack India and transferred all the forces located in Asia to India. Once China invaded India, they would fight a queen war in India. In the end, China just used Lan Fang and with the help of the Sher fleet, India ransacked it again, and then focused on Southeast Asia, starting the process of farming development from Lan Fang as the basis.

It is precisely because of this history that before Lan Fang became a member of China, Southeast Asia has developed tremendously. At present, it has shined with a different brilliance in the hands of the Chinese. Southeast Asia is very good. It is not only a marine climate, but also a deep tropical area. It has not been developed for many years. It is fertile and can almost produce water. In addition, it is a unique geographical location of three ripenings a year. This makes it a natural place for China's grain base. It only has one-tenth of the territory of the entire China, but it bears more than 45% of the entire China's grain. Therefore, in Southeast Asia, the most common ones are large areas of neat farmland, and then large areas of primeval forests.

Agriculture is based on no agriculture, but no farming is not stable, but no labor is not rich. Without enough industry, it is impossible to provide enough wealth. Southeast Asia is also the core of China. To a certain extent, it is even more important than Siberia. This is the tropical area. In comparison, the climatic conditions are not as harsh as Siberia. In Siberia, as long as it starts to snow, it is not a suitable place for people to work. Although heat is also a disaster, in some cases, it is much better than cold.

With continuous efforts, Southeast Asia has early implemented some basic heavy and light industries, such as shipbuilding, steel manufacturing, and some light industries. These transfers have led to industrial traces of Borneo and the Indochina Peninsula. The output value has not stopped increasing since the moment Lan Fang was established. The increase has long exceeded China's average growth rate and has become China's most important economic growth point.

However, after Lan Fang was incorporated into China, it is impossible to divide more than 3 million square kilometers of land into one province. This is a region with prosperous vegetation and rich resources. Due to history, it is impossible to divide a province like in China. It is still divided into four regions based on the relationship between history and region, including Central South Province, Malay Province, Indonesia and Philippines. This division is the Indochina Peninsula, the Strait of Malacca, and west of Borneo. It belongs to the original Indonesian territory and the Philippines.

It is more intuitive in terms of the region, but it is different in size and belongs to China. The administrative divisions of the four provinces directly under the central government, and the only thing they can compare between them is the economic output value. This is a national comparison. Baotou is incomparable. It is the Longxing land in the northwest. Even now, after being de-industrial for so long, most industries with severe pollution and heavy energy consumption have basically left Baotou. However, the headquarters of a large number of group companies, plus some high-tech industries and semiconductor industries, still make Baotou the top, which is basically higher than the last five of the top ten.

Baotou cannot compare, and the traditional cities of China, provincial capitals, Tianjin, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou cannot compare to Southeast Asia. Their development time is much stronger than Southeast Asia, and they have been undertaking industrial transfer for a longer time, and the reforms are more in-depth. Shanghai, the highest, has ranked second in China in just a few years, and is far from comparing these backward provinces.

Among the four provinces in Southeast Asia, their own comparisons are also compared with some backward provinces in China. These are the key points of their comparison. This goal cannot be achieved by relying solely on agriculture. Therefore, in the next few years, the governors have focused on promoting industrial construction and achieved certain results. Southeast Asia has gradually begun to improve from the worst province in China. It is currently in the middle reaches. Among them, it is worth mentioning that it is not the Indonesian province that has taken over the core of Lanfang. Although its development is also quite strong, the star of Southeast Asia is Central and Southern Province. (To be continued.)
