Chapter 1445: Steady and Steady

In the attack on Australia, Darwin was a little easier, the previous preparations, from East Timor to Darwin is not far away, but East Timor took a long time to prepare, transported from Borneo, if there is another Australia in between, it will be even more distant and distant.

It is a very troublesome thing to change the land route by sea, not to mention that it has to cross the whole of Australia, from Darwin to Sydney, and through the northwest to the southeast of Australia, which is not a short distance, although Australia is the smallest of all continents, Australia is also a large country with 7 million square kilometers of land, from the northwest to the southeast This is almost the farthest distance, such a long distance, in case of any problems, even if the Chinese army has excellent combat effectivenessIn case of an attack in the middle of the Great Desert and greater losses, I am afraid that it will be the most terrible for China.

Especially after Zhang Xiaohuai arrived in Australia, he really understood the barrenness of Australia, which was included in the territory of Britain before the 19th century, in the first few decades, just as a place of exile, decades of development, Australia is still attached to the existence of the British Commonwealth, he is not a complete industrial country, does not have a complete industrial chain, for domestic development, not to mention reaching the level of Europe, even among the colonies, there are many stronger than Australia.

Perhaps, as the intelligence said, only on the southeast coast, the most developed part of Australia, will be modernized, and the central and northern parts of the country will be basically undeveloped.

This statement is really true, according to historical development, even in World War II, Australia developed mostly part of the coastal area and close to the southeast of the central and western centers, most of the area is undeveloped, not to mention railways, there are few roads.

Without roads and railways, the speed advantage of the Chinese Army cannot be brought into play, and the armored corps can be used as the vanguard, but under the premise of long-distance running and insufficient logistical supplies, Zhang Xiaohuai does not dare to take this risk at all.

China already has a huge territory, although it is inevitable for Australia to win, but this imperative will also take time, even if Australia is very weak, even if Australia's population is small, the huge territory is their strategic depth, and they are prepared to take three steps in the plan.

The first step, of course, is to gain a firm foothold, with Darwin as the center, 300 kilometers around is the goal, close to 80,000 square kilometers of land, the most elite area in northern Australia, which will become China's offensive base, and after occupying it as quickly as possible, it will begin to resettle and build on a large scale, so that he can have the initial capacity and storage conditions, and become the foundation and base for China's attack on Australia.

This process, about 3 months to half a year, to adjust according to the situation, now, Darwin conquered much faster than imagined, Zhang Xiaohuai put the headquarters in Darwin, and then began the construction of this base, and the successful capture of Darwin and the northern region of Australia, the news back to China.

In China, among the staff departments, no one has ever doubted that Zhang Xiaohuai could not capture Darwin, China has made unimaginable preparations in order to capture Darwin, and the opponent does not know that in the past half a year, no reinforcements have been sent to Darwin, nor have they supported a little material, in this case, how can there be an accident, unless it encounters a large-scale tsunami.

At the end of the summer, near Darwin, in the Timor Sea, a tsunami is unlikely, and this is not even a chance of a tsunami, they are waiting for the news of a complete occupation, in China's Hainan Island, Guangdong, and Borneo in Lanfangguo, there are more than a million troops, ready to go, just waiting to take Darwin.

From the beginning of the capture of Darwin, after China got the news, a fleet of more than 1.5 million tons began to act, and they would even converge 500,000 tons from Lanfang on the way, a total of 2 million tons of materials, except for about 4 percent, which is military materials for the army, the rest, all of which are construction materials.

China's habit has always been to fight where to build, construction is the strongest place of the Chinese, relying on construction, can provide sufficient protection for the army, China's strong defense, all inseparable from construction, although it is said that China and Australia, are separated by tens of millions of kilometers, but strong transportation capacity, will smooth out the gap of distance.

At the same time as a large number of fleets were dispatched, in Lanfang, the mobilization continued, the personnel were not limited to the military, for Australia's strategy, the number of soldiers must be sufficient, China has prepared 2 million people for Australia, and will enter Australia in batches, in the initial stage, 300,000 people are enough.

This part of the people is to hold Darwin, even if it is the current state, 300,000 people have built a perfect defense, transported supplies and artillery to the shore, and after reasonable distribution, 300,000 people are enough to resist the same size of 500,000 troops, this same degree is the same degree as the Chinese army, with Zhang Xiaohuai's self-confidence, even if the strength of Australia's army is at the same level as Russia, it is enough to resist more than 1.5 million, this is Zhang Xiaohuai's self-confidence.

Is Australia's army stronger than Russia's? No, as far as the Australian soldiers who are currently in contact with it are really not in the stream, perhaps it is a matter of Darwin's position, but in the northern region, the regular Australian army, which has at least 2 regiments, was also defeated in one blow, and there is no coordination and tactics at all, and it is not on the same level as the Chinese Army.

What to defend, only secondary, in Zhang Xiaohuai's estimate, if Australia's army goes to the northern region, it will be at least a few months later, this is a big war, a big war against these millions of square kilometers of land, the battle is only one aspect of the war, road construction and urban construction must be carried out with the war, the former can reduce the pressure on logistics, the huge, 7 million square kilometers of the Australian continent, there are two deserts in the middle, if you want to cross the whole of Australia, On the other side, to completely integrate Australia into China's territory, there is almost no military pressure.

Not to mention that Australia has put most of its military strength in Europe, and it is unlikely that it will be mobilized back in a short period of time, even if it does not put all its forces in Europe and may be mobilized back at any time, it is already good that Australia can exert a fraction of its strength.

Not to mention the overall gap in army building ideas, weapons and equipment, and even training levels, the Australian army does not even have the baseline of the European war, not to mention compared with China, which is higher than the combat effectiveness of the German army, the superiority of artillery fire, flexible use, and even special forces, dance to blow them up. Even if Australia can play its full strength, there is a huge difference in strength, this difference is not to say that it can be made up, for China, as long as it does its own duty, Australia will become a ripe fruit and fall into the arms of the Chinese.

All the construction personnel who have been transferred will be concentrated in East Timor from Lanfang, they will make a simple stop in East Timor, and then cross the strait that is not too wide, into Australia, such a move will continue until the arrival of winter, at that time, there will be at least about 700,000 professionals of all kinds, enter Australia, and at the same time, there will be more than 50,000 professional construction vehicles, only after these are all in place, large-scale construction for Australia will rise.

This is the first year, the main task before entering the winter, to the second year, will gradually expand, and strive to take the central part, with the central part as the core, the corners of Australia are occupied, and then, the third year is to take the most prosperous place in Australia, such a method, in the heart is more or less slow, but it is the best method that can be chosen at present, because of stability, more in line with Zhang Xiaohuai's grasp.

If the war ends within three years, the ownership of Australia will be very problematic, but in China's research, the world war will not end so easily, Britain, France, the United States and Germany, and even Russia, these countries, in the First World War that began in 1913, suffered heavy losses, but they did not reach the final stage, the overall strength of the Entente was above the Central Powers, and this was the case for so long after the war. It is clear to everyone that historically, Germany did not have support, independently resisted the attacks of the Entente, and eventually lost confidence.

But in this era, because of the emergence of China, Germany is no longer isolated, with the support of China, the black hand behind it, until now, it is still pressing the Entente to fight, and in 3 years, the Entente has not occupied any upper hand, coupled with China's participation in the war, the Allied countries have become the most powerful.

However, Britain was once the world hegemon, France followed Britain and colonized the whole world, plus Russia, which was the steamroller of Europe, and the United States, the world's nominal first industrial country, they have not yet burst out their last strength, even if the most conservative estimate, 3 years should be no problem. As long as the war is over, the Australian goal will be achieved, as for the twists and turns after that, it will be a post-war thing, and it has nothing to do with the present, even if Britain and the United States have raised some objections, but China has created a fait accompli, and all the people in Australia have been relocated to China, and there is no problem at all in building a yellow Australia in Australia, even because of the steady relationship, The possibility of fluctuations and sequelae in the future will be greatly reduced.
