According to the original agreement with the British Empire, from May 1, 1906, the troops of the Kingdom of Lanfang could enter Western Australia one after another, and be stationed in the two western states and one autonomous territory and the southeastern part of the island of Papua within one month; The police force and militia of the Lanfang Kingdom can enter the three western regions 10 days in advance to maintain order; The Kingdom of Lanfang promised that individuals who did not complete the relocation after the handover could continue to relocate, and the Lanfang government would not make things difficult; If the relocation is not completed after June 1, it is deemed that the materials have been transferred to the Lanfang government.

In the western part of Australia, except for a few cities, the rest of the country is still barren, and only a few minerals have been discovered. Except for the places along the coast where there is a water source that can produce and survive normally, the rest of the places are deserts, which cannot create benefits for the British Empire at all, so at the beginning, the Lanfang Kingdom only required a large territory, and there were no special requirements for the surface, so the Lanfang Kingdom was regarded as an oriental barbarian who didn't know anything, and by the way, this huge land was given to the Lanfang Kingdom.

Zhang Wei regarded this land as a treasure, firstly because the upgrade system needed to occupy a huge amount of land, and secondly, because there were huge amounts of mineral resources buried in this land.

At this time, the British only found some small and scattered iron ore in Western Australia, which were not of great value, so they did not care. The Australian Commonwealth was very dissatisfied with the British taking away two states and one dominion without the consent of the Federation, and protested to the British government and parliament, but did not receive any substantive response. The British government was fundamentally homegrown, and all colonies were merely objects to be exploited, which could be given up or exchanged for benefits under certain conditions.

For the sake of ease of administration, the province of Western Australia is divided into two parts, the part where the west city of Zhenxi (Pass) is called the Western State, the northern half is called the Northern State, the state government is tentatively named Zhenbei City (Karatha), and the other two places are called the Central State and the Southern State respectively, and the state government is located in the city of Zhenzhong (Darwin) and the south of the town (Adelaide) respectively.

Through consultations with the General Staff, Australia is vast and sparsely populated, and far from the central government, so it is necessary to set up a staff headquarters of the Australian Military Region to command the troops stationed in Australia in a unified manner, and the staff of the Australian Military Region is ready to be stationed in Zhenzhong City, Zhongzhou.

The navy made Zhenzhong City in Zhongzhou the largest military port in the southeast direction of the kingdom to protect the southeast direction of Shangjing.

The Navy will station 1 battle cruiser, several destroyers, torpedo boats and a squad of submarines in the city of Zhenzhong; One destroyer squadron is stationed in Zhenbei, Zhenxi, and Zhennan respectively, including one Lanfang-class destroyer, five Dolphin-class, and 10 Sea Lion-class torpedo boats, whose main role is to maintain maritime security and crack down on piracy.

The Army is preparing to drop the 14th and 15th Divisions currently stationed in Singapore to be stationed in Australia, the 14th Division is to be stationed in Zhenzhong City, and the 15th Division is to be stationed in Zhennan City. These 2 divisions are responsible for organizing merchant shipping by the British, otherwise the evacuation speed of the Lanfang Kingdom will be very slow, and it is hard to say how long the evacuation can be completed, Sir Anderson, the Governor of the Straits Settlements, in order to allow the 2 Lanfang divisions to evacuate as soon as possible, had to pay for the transportation by the Straits Colonies to help the Lanfang Kingdom transport these 2 army divisions to Zhenzhong City and Zhennan City, and the role of these 2 divisions is to prevent the British or the Australian Federation from attacking the territory of the Lanfang Kingdom from land.

In order to protect such a large area of territory, it is impossible to defend it with the strength of 2 divisions alone, for this reason, Zhang Wei synthesized 4 militia divisions, and the militia division consists of 5 regiments, each regiment has 4 battalions, each battalion has 500 people, and the company division headquarters counts 12,000 people per division; 1 militia division is stationed in each state; Australia has a large territory and few rivers, which is suitable for cavalry combat, so Zhang Weiyou equipped each militia division with a cavalry regiment of 1,000 people for transmitting messages and patrolling on land; This brings the size of each militia division to 13,000 people.

Each state has 1,000 police officers, who are managed by the local state government, and when the number of immigrants is sufficient, police officers will be recruited from local immigrants to replace the police officers stationed from Beijing.

In order to accelerate the development of Australia, the Royal Council organized the leaders of the four Australian states and various ministries to have many discussions, and finally issued the development goals of each state, and then carried out targeted immigration according to the development goals.

Only the western plains of the state are habitable, and the state government has set development targets for animal husbandry and mining. Zhang Wei vetoed the mining industry, and did not develop the mining industry in Zhongzhou for the time being, for fear that the British would be jealous, and when the time came to occupy the eastern part of Australia, the British would hold on to it and treat Australia as a treasure. In this way, Zhongzhou focuses on the development of animal husbandry, and the industry is wool combing, weaving, and meat processing industries, mainly moving some families who can graze and breed to build pastures and engage in animal husbandry.

Nanzhou is known as the "land of fish and rice", mainly planting barley and grapes, and the government decided that the farmers in the future will mainly immigrate to Nanzhou, and strive to develop Nanzhou into an agricultural and animal husbandry production area, and vigorously promote the planting of grapes and the development of wine industry. Zhang Wei asked Nanzhou to actively develop the breeding industry, to build Nanzhou into the world's largest milk production base, now milk is not convenient to preserve and transport, and strive to process all into milk powder and other products, in the future, we should first promote the drinking of milk powder among primary school students across the country, and then provide primary school students with pure milk or sour milk when the conditions are met; Canned meat will also be one of the state's main products. The mineral resources of Nanzhou will not be exploited for the time being.

In the future, Xizhou will be built into an industrial city and a cultural and educational city, and industrial workers will gradually migrate to Xizhou.

North State will be used as a mining resource city, and all miners and other immigrants will move to North State. There are now many small iron ore factories left behind by the British in North State, and as long as there are people after taking over, they can start production immediately, and the infrastructure left behind because they cannot be relocated makes it more convenient for immigrants. Lanfang Royal Metal Smelting Company and Royal Iron and Steel Plant both wanted to dominate Beizhou, but Zhang Wei did not agree, and decided to set up a new company in Beizhou, Lanfang Royal Mining Company, which is responsible for the mining and smelting of minerals in the entire Beizhou, and strives to build the company into one of the world's largest mining companies as soon as possible. Zhang Wei means that Beizhou cannot only export ore, but must process and smelt to provide added value of products, and the ore is only sold to domestic iron and steel mills, and is not ready to directly export iron ore (iron ore fine).

In order to balance the competition between the royal enterprises, Zhang Wei had no choice but to agree to the proposal of the Ministry of Industry to continue to exploit the copper mines discovered by the British in Zhongzhou and the gold mines left by the British in Xizhou, and transferred the two mines to the Royal Metal Smelting Company.

For the Royal Iron and Steel Plant, Zhang Wei promised to expand the steel plant in Surabaya to an adult output of 8 million tons of steel within four years, and adopt the latest pure oxygen top blowing converter steelmaking technology; Iron and steel plants that adopt pure oxygen top blowing converter steelmaking technology have a fast construction period, low investment, low energy consumption and short production cycle, so that the profits of steel plants will be greatly improved.

The first people to enter Australia were the divisional headquarters, the 1st Regiment and the Cavalry Regiment of the Militia Division; There are destroyer squads to escort them; Due to the notice received in advance, this is the first batch of troops stationed in the Lanfang Kingdom, and the troops did not encounter any obstacles, so they were stationed in the local area, but they did not enter the city, and they lived in tents outside the city. The first group arrived at the end of April to maintain order and protect the remaining houses and other facilities from vandalism.

The second group of arrivals, the staff of the state government and its departments, the municipal government of the state government and the personnel of the departments and the police forces of the states, arrived on the morning of 1 May, and at 12 noon on the same day, the governors of the three states and the Australian federal government personnel handled the handover.

The Australian Federation does not dare to be an enemy of the Lanfang Kingdom now, not even the British Empire, then the Australian Federation is not an opponent, and it will still be a neighbor in the future, and it must have a good relationship, otherwise the Lanfang Kingdom will be able to swallow up the Federation if it is unhappy, and the British Empire may not be able to stand up for its own people, so the whole handover process is very smooth.

The remaining personnel will arrive one after another after the handover is completed.
