When it comes to Australia, Shulman's face changes several times, and it is obvious that what the Japanese are doing in Australia is unbearable for the Americans, which is also one of the reasons why the Americans in the Far East have stepped up their support for Wang Maoru in order to contain Japan. He took a deep breath, and screamed vigorously in the vast four fields, echoing between the heavens and the earth, and Schulman vented and said: "This beautiful land should not be invaded by foreign enemies. We Americans want to come here to do business, the British want to come here to do business, and all the whites come here to do business. But the yellow race is different, don't you say? ”

Wang Maoru nodded and said, "Yes, they are wolves that can't be fed." Therefore, our cooperation with the US Government is sincere and 100 percent dedicated, and we will engage 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 long-distance friendship and close attack, and that's what it means." Schulman laughed.

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

Shulman said: "Thank you for the compliment, but Xiushuai, you must know that now the US government is also in difficulty, and the support for you will not be material, let alone economic." But we want you to be the voice of the United States in Asia, just as the face of the United Kingdom in Asia is Japan. ”

Wang Maoru felt a burst of sadness in his heart, he became the spokesperson of the United States, if this was the standard cent party in the future, but in this Republic of China he wanted to survive in peace. There is not a single warlord who does not rely on foreign backgrounds. Perhaps the United States is not strong enough now, and in Asia it is still dominated by the Japanese and the British. But Wang Maoru knows the potential of the United States, but the United States, on the other hand, does not know the potential of China. The reason why China did not become a colony is because the forces of various countries compete with each other to reach a balance, and finally when one family is dominant, it openly puts aside the backers behind it and becomes self-reliant, which requires a lot of courage and courage. Wang Maoru didn't even know if he had the courage of that great man. He can only follow the path he thinks is right, maybe the future is wrong, but a qiē is only maybe. He thought for a long time before he said: "As the spokesperson of the United States, doesn't the United States pursue an independent policy?" ”

Schulman said: "The international situation is changing day by day, and the national policy of the United States is also changing day by day, and the world is impermanent." ”

Wang Maoru nodded seriously. "By the way, Dr. Schulman, I hope to be able to order more tractors from your country to adapt to the vast development of Northeast China, so that the Northeast Great Plain can become a great fertile land in Northeast China, which is a little busy." You can help, right? ”

Schulman smiled: "This is a good thing, I didn't expect that I would get an order from you this time." Now that the U.S. economy is not good, it needs a partner like you. ”

Wang Maoru said: "In addition to that, we also need to build a fertilizer plant. Chemical plants, oil refineries. and buy crude oil from your country. ”

Shulman frowned and said, "What do you need, can't you just buy it in our country?" Why build chemical plants and refineries? ”

Wang Maoru asked rhetorically: "Why doesn't your country buy directly from Britain, but build its own chemical plant and refinery?" It is simply sad that a country does not even have a chemical refinery. ”

"Okay, but it's too expensive to ship crude oil from the United States." Schulman said with a shrug.

Wang Maoru shook his finger and said, "We can buy it from Japan, which has a big oil field in Australia." ”

Schulman sneered: "The trouble that Japan has caused in Australia is definitely the biggest mistake made by their short-sighted people. ”

Because Wang Maoru provided information to the Japanese, five years ago the Japanese discovered the world's richest oil deposits in Australia. In order to seal Wang Maoru's mouth, the Japanese gave him 10 percent of the shares. Wang Maoru did not ask for these shares, but replaced them with steel equipment, which is now Anshan Iron and Steel Plant and Benxi Iron and Steel Plant, with an annual production of 600,000 tons of pig iron and 150,000 tons of steel, which has become a thorn in the side of the Japanese.

As for the Japanese, the most desperate thing they want is this oil mine in Australia. The Japanese first bought several plots of land in Australia as the third principal, and secretly emigrated, because the number of immigrants was small, and the Japanese government and the British government were ambiguous, even though the Japanese encroached on the Japanese. At the instigation of the Japanese, Australia passed a regulation in which the government and individuals split the resources below the land. In fact, Australians did not think that this was a conspiracy of the Japanese, and Australians had a population of just over two million, and they were desperate to assert their power, and they strongly supported this law.

The day after the regulations were passed, the Yawata Iron and Steel Works in Japan announced that they had purchased several plots of land in Australia from a third corporation, and then Mitsubishi Heavy Industries also purchased several plots of land, but in addition to arousing the disgust of Australians, it did not attract more attention. Then the Japanese secretly bought off the Aboriginal Australians to launch a riot and fight for the power of people of color. The Australian government was part of the Commonwealth government, and when there was an Aboriginal riot, the whites immediately formed a police force to try to exterminate the Aboriginal people.

However, the Japanese directly sent soldiers to disguise themselves into the aborigines, and the experienced Japanese soldiers immediately beat the Australian police into the water and fled, and the Australian aborigines immediately launched a great uprising that swept the entire Australian grassland, killing white people, occupying mines, factories and even cities, capturing white women and children as hostages, and threatening the government to demand the restoration of the power of colored people. The Japanese took the opportunity to tell the Australian government that they would send militia to protect their imminent interests in Australia, and that there were only two million people in Australia, so how could there be any extra troops to suppress the aborigines? The British mainland army was also far from quenching its thirst, so it had no choice but to agree to the Japanese request. The Japanese took the opportunity to migrate to Australia on a large scale, and within a year there were 50,000 Japanese immigrants, most of whom were reserve soldiers.

The expansion of the Japanese made Australia uneasy, but the Japanese were also effective in suppressing the rebellion of the natives. During this time, the Australian European army returned home and immediately wiped out the indigenous rebels everywhere. However, after two years of fighting, the indigenous army has adapted to modern warfare. The aborigines can run, pick and hide, and it is indeed inferior to the Australian army, but the harassment, attack and destruction also overwhelm Australia. Then, after the end of the war in Europe, Britain sent troops into Australia, which suppressed the indigenous rebellion.

But after five years of development, the Japanese have laid a foundation in Australia, and because the Japanese and the British are strategic allies, and hope that the Japanese will agree to a global military reduction plan, that is, the Washington Treaty, the dispute against Australia is also left to the Australian army to settle itself.

Subsequently, the Japanese announced the discovery of oil in Australia and obtained the right to exploit it by various means. In order to curb companies such as Mitsubishi and Yawata in Japan, Australia has specially passed a tax bill, known as the Oil Heavy Tax Treaty. The temporary tax policy imposed a tax on oil, metallic and non-metallic minerals, and other underground resources by up to 70 percent, harming not only Japanese companies, but also their own interests. And the Japanese have changed their approach and made the Australian government's tax policy a dead letter. They were sold exclusively to the Japanese government in the name of the Yawata Group and the Mitsubishi Group at a very low price (one-tenth of the market price), to the detriment of the Australian government.

The Japanese did not stop in Australia, as they discovered that Australia has one of the world's largest iron ore mines, the Pilbara Iron Ore Mine. The iron ore in the Pilbara region of the iron ore is mainly high-grade iron ore, and the specific varieties include low-phosphorus, high-phosphorus Bruckman mine, Malamamba mine, riverbed mine, etc. According to the estimates of Japanese experts, the annual output of iron ore can be as high as 20 million tons, which can not only fully meet Japan's needs, but also use it to become a world steel power.

In order to keep oil and steel, the Japanese had to start being aggressive against the West, and even at the Washington Conference, they began to have some different methods for reducing the total tonnage and number of warships in the world. This made Americans even more uneasy about the ambitions of the Japanese, who desperately wanted someone to contain the rise of the Japanese in Asia. Britain also began to be dissatisfied with Japan, and they joined forces with the United States and France to secretly discuss a plan to sanction Japan.

Professor Schulman (Consul) received a secret order from U.S. President Wilson to formulate a comprehensive plan for cooperation between the U.S. government and China's most powerful warlords in order to contain the Japanese development.

The two needed each other, so they naturally fit together, and after an afternoon of hunting, Wang Maoru was invited to attend the birthday party of Schulman's youngest daughter three days later.

After returning to General Shangwu's mansion, Wang Maoru said to his wife and children with great interest: "Now, the Americans are on our side. Except for Zhiya, the other wives were indifferent to this, but Zhiya was worried, and Wang Maoru was a little unhappy in his eyes. After eating, Wang Maoru played with the children, still Cai Wei kept screaming, among the children, she liked to shout the most, and she also had the sweetest mouth, which was very popular with all the elders. Many people said that they would let Cai Wei be their daughter-in-law in the future, but Wang Maoru was very reluctant, saying that the child was still young. But Yuzhuo smiled and said that your son has decided to be the daughter of Liu Zhe's family, and now it is his daughter's turn to be reluctant? Wang Maoru laughed, but did not speak, just teasing his children.
