Volume Four The Battle of Unification Chapter 579 The Battle of Britain, Japan and Australia

When talking about Australia, Shulman's face changed several times. Obviously, what the Japanese did in Australia made Americans unbearable. This is also one of the reasons that prompted Americans to step up their support for Wang Maoru in the Far East to curb Japan's efforts to speed up their support for Wang Maoru. He took a deep breath, looked at the vast four fields, and shouted vigorously. Echoes were rippling between the world. Schulman vented and said: "This beautiful land should not be invaded by foreign enemies. We Americans want to come here to do business, and the British also want to come here to do business. All white people come here to do business. But yellow people are different, do you think so?"

Wang Maoru nodded and said, "Yes, they are wolves that cannot be fed. Therefore, our cooperation with the US government is sincere and 100% devoted. We will interact with all countries that do not have territorial disputes with our country with sincere feelings."

"Oh, my dear king, you have an idiom in China called "Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-to-Far-

"Yes." Wang Maoru also laughed, "Dr. Shulman, you are so knowledgeable."

Shulman said: "Thank you for your praise, but Xiushuai, you should know that the US government is also facing difficulties, and the support for you will not be material, nor will it be economic. However, we hope that you will become the spokesperson of the United States in Asia, just like the spokesperson of the United Kingdom in Asia is Japan."

A burst of sadness surged in Wang Maoru's heart. He became the spokesperson of the United States. If he was the standard American party in later generations, he wanted to survive safely in the Republic of China. No warlord did not rely on foreign backgrounds. Perhaps the United States is not strong enough now, and it is still the world of the Japanese and British in Asia. But Wang Maoru knew the potential of the United States, but on the other hand, the United States did not know China's potential. The reason why China did not become a colony is because the forces of various countries competed with each other and reached a balance. Finally, when one of the only one dominant one, he openly put aside the backers behind him and relied on his own. How courage and courage would it take. Wang Maoru didn't even know whether he had the courage of that great man. He could only move forward according to the path he thought was right. Maybe the future was wrong, but everything was just maybe. He thought for a long time before saying, "As the spokesperson of the United States, isn't the United States following the ** policy?"

Schulman said: "The international situation is changing day by day, and the US national policy is changing day by day, and things are unpredictable."

Wang Maoru nodded seriously and said, "By the way, Dr. Shulman, I hope to order more tractors from your country to adapt to the vast development of the Northeast and turn the Northeast Plain into a Northeast fertile land. This is a busy thing. Can you help?"

Shulman smiled and said, "This is a good thing. I didn't expect that I would get an order from you if I didn't come in vain this time. Now the US economy is not good, and I just need a partner like you."

Wang Maoru said: "In addition, we also need to establish fertilizer plants, chemical plants, refineries, and purchase crude oil from your country."

Shulman frowned and said, "What do you need? Isn't it enough to buy it directly in our country? Why do you need to build chemical plants and refineries?"

Wang Maoru asked back: "Why don't your country buy it directly from the UK but build a chemical factory and oil refinery by itself? It's simply sad if a country doesn't even have a chemical oil refinery."

"Okay, but the cost of crude oil coming from the United States is too high." Schulman shrugged.

Wang Maoru shook his finger and said, "We can buy it from Japan. Japan has large oil fields in Australia."

Shulman sneered: "The trouble Japan has caused in Australia is definitely the biggest mistake made by their short-sighted nation."

Because Wang Maoru provided information to the Japanese, five years ago, the Japanese discovered the most oil-storage oil mine in Australia. In order to seal Wang Maoru, the Japanese gave him 10% of the shares. Wang Maoru did not ask for these shares, but replaced it with steel equipment, which is the current Anshan Iron and Steel Plant and Benxi Iron and Steel Plant. The annual production of pig iron reaches 600,000 tons and 150,000 tons of steel, which has become a thorn in the Japanese's eyes.

For the Japanese, the most urgent thing they hoped to get was the Australian oil mine. The Japanese first purchased several lands in Australia as the third client and immigrated secretly. Due to the small number of immigrants and the ambiguous attitudes between the Japanese and the British government, the British government even though the Japanese were eroded by the Japanese. Under the secret instruction of the Japanese, Australia passed a regulation that the government and individuals under the land accounted for half of the resources below the land. In fact, Australians never thought that this was a conspiracy by the Japanese. Australia had a population of only more than 2 million and tried its best to protect its own power, but instead strongly supported this regulation.

The day after the regulations were passed, the people of Hachiman Steel Factory in Japan announced that they had purchased several Australian land from the third legal person. Then Mitsubishi Heavy Industries also purchased several lands, which not only aroused the disgust of Australians, but did not attract more attention. The Japanese then secretly bribed the Australian indigenous people to launch an riot to fight for the power of people of color. The Australian government belongs to the Commonwealth government. When the indigenous riots occurred, the white people immediately formed a police force to try to eliminate the indigenous people.

However, Japan directly sent soldiers to disguise themselves into the indigenous people. Experienced Japanese soldiers immediately beat the Australian police to flee. The indigenous people of Australia immediately launched a major uprising that swept the entire Australian grassland. They killed white people, occupied mines, occupied factories and even occupied cities, captured white women and children as hostages, threatening the government to restore the power of colored people. The Japanese took the opportunity to tell the Australian government that sending militias to protect the interests of Australia. There were only two million people in Australia, so how could there be any extra army to suppress the indigenous people? The British local army could not relieve the near thirst, so they could only agree to the Japanese's request. The Japanese took the opportunity to immigrate to Australia on a large scale. In a year, Japan immigrated to 50,000, most of them were reserve soldiers.

The expansion of the Japanese made Australia feel comfortable, but the Japanese also effectively stopped the indigenous rebellion. During this period, the Australian European War Army returned to the mainland and immediately eliminated the indigenous rebels everywhere. However, after two years of fighting, the indigenous army still adapted to the modern war. Indigenous people were able to run, pick and hide, and fighting with the Australian army was indeed worse than those of the Australian army, but harassment and attacks and destruction also overwhelmed Australia. Subsequently, the end of the European War, Britain sent troops into Australia, which suppressed the indigenous rebellion.

However, after five years of development, the Japanese have laid foundations in Australia. Moreover, because the Japanese and British are strategic alliances, they hope that the Japanese can agree to the global military reduction plan, namely the Treaty of Washington, so the dispute against Australia is left to be resolved by the Australian army itself.

The Japanese then announced that they had discovered oil in Australia and obtained the right to exploit it through various means. In order to curb Japanese companies such as Mitsubishi and Hachiman, Australia specially passed a tax bill, namely the oil heavy tax treaty. The temporary tax policy is 70% high for oil, metal mines, non-metallic mines and other underground resources, which not only harms the interests of Japanese companies, but also harms their own interests. Moreover, the Japanese changed their way and made this tax policy of the Australian government a blank talk. They sold it to the Japanese government at an extremely low price (one tenth of the market price) in the name of Hachiman Group and Mitsubishi Group, which greatly damaged the interests of the Australian government.

The Japanese did not stop in Australia because they surveyed that Australia has the largest iron ore in the world, namely the Pilbara Iron Mine. The iron ore in the Pilbara area of ​​the iron ore is mainly high-grade iron ore, and the specific varieties include low-phosphorus, high-phosphorus Brookman Mine, Maramamba Mine, river deposit mine, etc. According to Japanese experts' estimates, the iron ore annual iron ore can be as high as 20 million tons, which not only can fully meet Japan's needs, but can also use it to become a world steel power.

In order to keep oil and steel, the Japanese had to start to be aggressive towards the West, and even at the Washington Conference, they began to have some different views on global cuts in the total tonnage and quantity of warships. This made Americans even more uneasy about the Japanese ambitions, and they urgently hoped that someone could curb the rise of the Japanese in Asia. Britain also began to be dissatisfied with Japan. They united with the United States and France to secretly discuss plans to sanction Japan.

Professor Schulman (consul) accepted the secret order of US President Wilson to formulate a comprehensive cooperation plan between the US government and China's most powerful warlords in order to curb the development of the Japanese.

The two needed each other and naturally co-starred. After a afternoon hunting, Wang Maoru was invited to attend the birthday party of Shulman's little daughter three days later.
