The decision made by the Australian Ministry of Defense has made the Manchus and the Dutch see their decision, this time it is not possible to solve the problem through negotiations, and the Dutch are very glad that they jumped out of this quagmire, otherwise with the nature of Australia, this time it is indispensable to launch an attack on Batavia.

At the beginning, the Australians set up a company in Batavia on the grounds that Blackwater was a private company, and the scale of Blackwater was very small at that time, and the first dozens of people could not pose any threat to the Netherlands, and indeed the Dutch did not take these people into account at that time.

Because the soldiers they recruited came from various countries, their vigilance was naturally much more reassuring, until the continuous expansion of Blackwater in recent years made the Dutch both worried and frightened.

Heishui is no longer the original small company with dozens of people, and now the number of employees in the company has reached more than 3,000 people, and 2,500 people can directly participate in the battle, which is the combat scale of an integrated regiment.

Even if it is placed in Australia, this is a military force that should not be underestimated, and Blackwater does not have its own warships, if it has its own warships, I am afraid that the local crossing people must strongly oppose the existence of such a military force.

After all, the existence of a country's military force by private armed forces is very terrible, and the main reason for the successful realization of the military expansion plan in the past one or two years is that the military strength of Blackwater is expanding too fast.

Considering that the crossing is a large collective, the two major shareholders of Blackwater took the initiative to accept the arrangement of the National Security Council, that is, the storage of weapons is subject to the arrangement of the state, which controls the military strength of Heishui to a certain extent, and without weapons and ammunition, this force is equivalent to losing half of its combat effectiveness.

The Ministry of Defence announced that it would join the war, which was an extremely gratifying event for all Australian soldiers, and only by participating in the war could they make meritorious contributions. Meritorious service can be promoted, which means that one's wife can live a better and happier life, which is the voice of those immigrants.

For the traversers, it is natural that they do not have to work so hard to live a good life, and their desire to participate in the war is mainly due to sympathy for that period of history.

So in fact, they don't have much affection for Daming, maybe from the beginning of the crossing everyone has a deep feeling for Daming, but with the establishment of Australia, and the increasing interaction with the Ming people, they know that in fact, Daming is not what they imagined.

If you help Daming without any regard for the future of Australia, I'm afraid no one can do it now. After all, the place where their descendants live is Australia, not the Ming Dynasty, which can only be regarded as a former hometown.

Under such a premise, it is natural to consider many factors in sending troops to participate in the war; after all, it is not possible to send troops just as you want to, and the Ministry of Defense only made the order to enter the war in advance after careful consideration.

You must know that entering the war in advance means that major domestic enterprises will also have to work overtime to produce strategic materials, and everything must be considered the first priority to participate in the war.

Australia is still unable to send troops to participate in the war, but it is still possible to mobilize a capable and experienced army to participate in the war. This force is naturally Blackwater mercenaries, and there is no second person except them.

Blackwater mercenaries are nominally private companies, but they have deep ties to the military, and the two sides have cooperated in a variety of areas. It is not impossible to completely break away from the military, but there will be a great obstacle in the way of action, and it will also be more likely to suffer from the envy of some people from the country.

The cooperation between the military and Blackwater can guarantee the purpose of supervising Blackwater to a certain extent, which is what everyone wants to see. It is also what Blackwater itself wants to see, after all, if they want to live in the Australian circle, they must accept the rules.

Blackwater's troops must have a name and cannot be hired for business. This would give people the misconception that the Australian military is child's play, and the Ministry of Defense consulted all parties and finally chose a very familiar name.

Volunteers, after these three words were proposed, the expressions on all their faces were obviously different, because many people knew what the chill of these three words represented.

Nominally, it is the Blackwater Volunteer Army, but Blackwater is a private enterprise after all, and it is impossible to help the Ming Dynasty fight like this, if you want to let Blackwater fight, the state still gives certain benefits, such as the relaxation of the regulations on weapons storage, and allows them to pay 30% of the captured booty, for example.

These are the conditions for Heishui to fight, Jiang Junbo and Tang Wei are patriotic, but the soldiers under their command need money, and they came to be mercenaries to save money to immigrate to Australia to live a good life.

Of course, for the participation of Blackwater soldiers in the war, the Ministry of Defense has also made a guarantee, and the families of the sacrificed soldiers can directly receive a national pension, and at the same time, the immediate family members can immigrate to Australia to enjoy the honor enjoyed by the families of all martyrs.

This condition is indeed the greatest temptation for many soldiers, the martyr awarded by the Ministry of Defense, what is that, that is an honor, in Australia can enjoy certain privileges, if their children go to the military school, under the same circumstances, their children can be admitted with reduced scores.

For this, even if some people oppose and envy, it is useless, people's parents sacrificed their lives for the country, and naturally they can enjoy certain preferential treatment, this is the country's preferential treatment of meritorious heroes, of course, no one will object, for those immigrants, in fact, this is nothing.

Ming immigrants and European immigrants who grew up in a feudal social environment have this kind of thing in their own country, you assisted or supported a certain king, and in the end your descendants can naturally enjoy certain preferential treatment.

Australia just changed the way to treat these people, in fact, the original intention has not changed, in everyone's opinion, this policy is quite good.

Even if they die in battle, their families may not be able to immigrate directly to Australia, and the indicators given by the company are to help immigrants to overseas provinces and recommended to the mainland.

This is fundamentally different from the soldiers of the Wehrmacht, so sometimes the soldiers of Blackwater are still very envious of the Wehrmacht, and of course, the Wehrmacht also envy the high salaries of the soldiers of Blackwater.

The different environments of the two sides have their own advantages, from the general or the national defense is more beneficial, after all, it is for the country to be a soldier, many things can be guaranteed, but also can be promoted, this time the Ministry of Defense not only gave preferential conditions to the soldiers who sacrificed, but also gave good conditions to the soldiers who made meritorious contributions, after the war, he could be transferred to the national defense force according to his performance in the battle, these two good news is the most exciting for Heishui to participate in the war.
