Chapter 333

  With Tian Shan's first speech, the big guys spoke freely at the meeting, provided suggestions and suggestions around the core tasks proposed by Lord Piaget, perfected the specific implementation steps and plans, and implemented them separately when they returned.

Public opinion and propaganda focused on exposing the darkness in the history of the southern state, ranging from mass killings of indigenous people to oppressing and discriminating against immigrant groups, splitting ethnic sentiments with one's own personalities, inciting oppositional sentiments, undermining the unity of Australia's unified market, and doing bad things. .

  Unify internal understanding, ease the antagonistic emotions between the white ethnic group and the immigrant group, emphasize the identity of the Australian protagonist, downplay the ethnic distinction, and avoid oneself fighting first.

these years

  Many white people from all over the world and white people from southern states have entered Queensland to find development opportunities. The total number is no less than 300,000, accounting for about 1/10 of the total population, which is stronger, and is one of the powerful parts of the entire Queensland state.

  Especially in cities such as Beilun Town, Red River City, and Brisbane, the well-educated white population is an important part of cultural entertainment and education, and it is indispensable.

  In the face of the current crisis, the Red River Valley must be twisted into a rope, and all departments must work together to maintain social stability, instead of dancing with the baton of the southerners. This is the current top priority.

  The meeting lasted until late at night before they dispersed.

  Li Fushou was young and energetic. After everyone left, he was still not tired. He walked into the study and went silent in front of the large map hanging on the wall.

  Shangri-La, Sulawesi, Borneo, Sumatra, Java...

  His gaze swept across the series of familiar islands, thinking about Tian Shan’s suggestions at the meeting, repeatedly weighing the political changes in the world today, and the British Empire’s response to this...

If Sulawesi is successfully taken, along with the provinces of East Kalimantan and South Kalimantan in Borneo, and perhaps parts of Central Kalimantan, considering that Shangri-La Island is firmly in hand , This time a full-scale attack can be described as fruitful and full of profits.

  Such a vast area, which is equivalent to cutting off half of the entire East Indies, and a little stronger.

  Across the entire Dutch East Indies

  The island of Java, with an area of ​​only 138,800 square kilometers, has the longest history of development. It has a deep cultural heritage. There have been indigenous countries such as Matalan, Manjapahit, and East Java. The island is rich in resources, has a large population and a pleasant climate.

  The annual rainfall is similar to that of Jiangsu, and the climate is around 20-30 degrees.

  It is famous in the world for its spice production. The main crops are maize, kapok, sesame, banana, mango, durian, citrus and vegetable oil. In addition, they are also abundant. Tea, coffee, tobacco, rubber, cinchona (the raw material of quinine, sugarcane and coconut planted in the West Java highlands and other cash crops, can be described as an extremely rich island.

Batavia (Jakarta), the ruling center of the Dutch East Indies, is located on the island. It is the most developed area and the core interest of the Dutch. As long as the Queenslanders dare to get involved, the Dutch are really going to die.

  Sumatra is the second most important island. With an area of ​​473,000 square kilometers, it is the sixth largest island in the world with a population of over 7.7 million and the second most populous island in the Dutch East Indies.

  In the history of the island, there was once a glorious ancient kingdom of Three Buddhas, which was later destroyed by the Manchurian Kingdom on the island of Java and split into many aboriginal kingdoms on one side.

  Since the second half of the 17th century

With the great discoveries of nautical geography, Western colonists landed on the island one after another. Dutch colonists successively destroyed a series of indigenous kingdoms with strong ships and guns, and occupied most of the land of Sumatra. Only the last thorn is still resisting. .

  This is the emirate of Aceh. The Dutch colonists have entered the 12th year of the war to conquer Aceh, and they have paid a huge price for this, and the local indigenous war against colonial rule is still going on.

  Sumatra, guarding the Strait of Malacca, is one of the world-class strait arteries. It faces the British Strait Settlements. The key location, coupled with rich properties and relatively adequate development, makes it second only to Java in importance.

  Next, we will count to Borneo, which is the third most important.

The Dutch are divided into East, South, West, North and Central Kalimantan provinces here, with a total population of about 1.7 million. More than half of the population live in Central Kalimantan. The economy is dominated by agriculture and plantations, producing spices and tobacco. Coffee, cocoa, rice, rubber and other crops.

  The degree of development of the island is relatively low. Except for a few scattered towns in the coastal area, most of the hinterland is in the state of tropical jungle, and no one has set foot in it for thousands of years.

With a total area of ​​176,000 square kilometers, Sulawesi is ranked fourth in importance. After more than 200 years of Dutch rule, the level of development is extremely low. There are only two or three small towns in Liao Liao and some white plantations. The whole island has indigenous people. The total population does not exceed 80,000, which is almost a primitive island.

Standing in front of the map, Li Fushou stretched out his slender fingers slowly from the location on Shangri-La Island, paused briefly when passing through Sulawesi, and then continued to slide forward to the location of East Kalimantan in Borneo. It is a straight line.

  His finger finally returned to the position of Sulawesi, tapped heavily on it, and said to himself; "Lao Tzu has taken possession of this place."

  The timing is very delicate, and it can be said to be just right.

  As long as you produce conclusive evidence, you can tell the British Colonial Department what the Dutch did. The Colonial Secretary Sir Gulliver, who is feeling a headache about the current situation in Australia, doesn’t mind the Dutch being beaten up and let them remember.

  Anyone who dares to reach into the backyard of the British Empire will have to pay for it.

  Everything has pros and cons

  Her Majesty Queen Victoria’s 50th anniversary ceremony, the Earl of Queensland received the friendship of the Royal Navy and the general appreciation of the upper class in London. It is an important reason for touching the sensitive nerves of the white separatist forces in the southern state.

  Looking at it the other way round, isn’t it the best time window for Queensland’s racetrack?

  The subsequent military operations on Sulawesi do not require Li Fushou to bother, as long as a good soldier is sent to conquer, there is no possibility of failure.

  Considering that the main force of the Shangri-La division stationed in the Jayapura area is the general reserve team for the entire Borneo campaign, it is necessary to concentrate on preparing to deal with the Dutch counterattack, and not be distracted by these small goals.

  Li Fushou plans to be stationed in the Moresby area of ​​the three regiments and one battalion, and then no more than 1,500 militiamen will be deployed to form a landing force to take down Sulawesi.

  Resolved, he let out a long sigh of relief.

  Stepped briskly to the front of the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of French red wine, and walked to the window while tasting comfortably.

  Lingxiao Pavilion is built on the top of a small mountain ridge. From here, you can overlook the dark red river valley city. The lights of the city flicker at night, spreading far away like a milky way, which is spectacular.

  This beautiful city of immigrants, built by oneself, can be called a city of miracles.

Whenever he sees this majestic and majestic city, Li Fushou has a strong sense of pride in his heart. This is a magnificent city created by himself. The superior natural environment and unique design and planning make This immigrant city shows infinite charm.

  Among the ten most livable cities in the world evaluated by later generations, it is not without reason that Australia lives alone in three.

Located in the middle of Australia, the Red River Valley city is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The natural scenery is beautiful and charming. The climate is like spring all year round. It gathers magnificent buildings written by many famous masters from all over the world, making it a world architecture exposition, surrounded by green trees, blooming flowers, clean and tidy. The urban environment makes people fall in love with it at first sight.

   "Master Yuanding, it's already late, so it's better to rest earlier."

   "Oh... it's Zhong Zhai!" Li Fushou turned around and saw Fan Zhongzhai coming in from the door, and said smoothly; "You haven't gone back yet?"

   "There are too many things, working overtime."

   "You don't need your secretariat to grow up if you work overtime?"

"The resolutions of the meeting are intricate, involving various departments and all towns in Queensland. They are multi-faceted and have a large amount of tasks. The secretariat is working overtime. In accordance with the spirit of the meeting, several small groups of work are formed to follow up the implementation measures of various departments. It also supervises the implementation of the resolutions. It is necessary to come up with a feasible plan to ensure that the relevant situation can receive timely feedback. How can I rest assured if I don’t stare at it?"

"It is also said that the provocations of the South have been one after another, and ordinary people have a fire in the hearts of ordinary people. The recent attacks and acts of beating, smashing and looting against the white group are manifestations of overreaction. We must conduct the correct guidance as soon as possible. On the crater!" Li Fushou won't say pretentiously; everyone has worked hard, so go back to rest early.

"Yes!" Fan Zhongzhai walked to the window and looked at the brightly lit city in the night, and praised sincerely; "The Red River Valley is so beautiful. Whenever you see the rapid changes in this city, you will be full of hearts. In this metropolis created by Master Yuanding, we also have a credit. Being able to follow Master Yuanding to do a career is the most proud thing in Zhongzhai’s life. Red River Valley can’t Chaos, Queensland must not be chaotic."

"That's good." Li Fushou walked to the desk, picked up a thick letter and gave it to Fan Zhongzhai; "This is an official letter I wrote to Sir Gulliver, the Minister of Colonial Affairs of the British Empire, to the Governor of Queensland. In his identity, he asked the Colonial Department to mediate the current chaos, stop the irrational separatist behavior in the southern state, and restore the original peaceful and united situation in Australia. This official letter is sent out as soon as possible."

   "Understood." Fan Zhongzhai clicked on the letter, and after a little thought, it suddenly dawned in his heart; "Are you going to retreat?"

"Yes, according to the British guy's temper everywhere, it makes no sense to watch the turmoil in his immediate colony and ignore it. Anyway, it is necessary to intervene. It is better to invite us to take the initiative, and it is even more open-minded." The corner of Li Fushou's mouth evokes a slight curve; "For those officials of the London Colonial Department, anyone who initiates the incident is an unpleasant troublesome spirit, and is inherently lost."

"Wonder... it's really wonderful." Fan Zhongzhai said with a laugh; "Hahaha... We in Queensland did nothing. We have been trying our best to maintain stability and unity. There is nothing to blame, as long as we don't use force for a day. , They are inherently invincible."

  Li Fushou smiled and nodded and said; "Yes, that's what it means."

  Two-line combat is a taboo for Queensland. Li Fushou will not be fooled by the Southerners in any way. He gently pushes his hands on Tai Chi and throws the hat of splitting and confrontation on the Southerners.
