Whether or not the expansion of the army poses a danger to the people and the Crossing Masses depends entirely on the Crossing Officers who lead the troops, and it is almost impossible for these locally recruited soldiers to rebel.

Political education is an indispensable task of the army, and they attach great importance to the education of every soldier, and in order to monitor the lurking lawless elements within the army, the Ministry of Defense has set up a special department in addition to the military police.

MI says it is responsible for monitoring outlaws within the military and providing effective military intelligence for battlefield operations, which greatly avoids the dominance of the DHS in intelligence work.

Chinese have always liked to check each other and play balancing policies, and there are many wise people who cross the crowd, and they also like this, and the military intelligence department can monitor the internal situation of the military and also monitor the actions of the homeland security agency.

Therefore, the biggest problem is not the biggest problem that everyone is worried about whether the expansion of the army will bring about security problems, but the increase in military spending that Gao Yi said will reduce the cost of building other public facilities.

The construction of a road from Manchester City to the steel town of Panzhihua has been put on the agenda, and the road is designed to travel on a single lane in both directions, with a total investment of millions of dollars, and the construction date is divided into three phases.

At present, the exploration work has been basically completed, and the approval of the project has entered the procedure stage, the significance of building this road is very important for the significance of Australia's urban construction, Panzhihua Town is located in Australia's main iron ore producing area, and it is also a key steel town for national development.

However, at present, due to the inconvenience of transportation, large steel smelters and related supporting production enterprises are reluctant to go here, in addition to the remoteness of this place, the biggest problem is the population.

At present, the total number of people in Panzhihua Town is more than 1,500, compared to the high quality of life in the capital City, the conditions here are relatively difficult, where the night lighting relies on candles and kerosene lamps, and the residents of the capital have basically used electric lights.

Although the price is a little more expensive than candles and kerosene lamps, the safety factor is much higher.

At present, the main self-hematopoietic function of Panzhihua Town relies on exports. Iron ore and some iron products are mined, so most of the families who immigrated here have a connection to the steel industry.

The distance from Panzhihua to Manchester City is thousands of kilometers, and this road can be said to be a barren and inhabited area, in addition to indispensable human resources to complete the road construction project. Significant supplies and transit points are also required.

In order to link Panzhihua and Manchester City, the idea of building a town by road is also being built, and the Manchester Industrial Park is a good example, although the industrial park is less than five kilometers from the city, it is located on the edge of this road.

Judging from the envisioned map of the plan. At least three to four towns will be built along the Mampan Highway, which will not only provide supplies for future fleets, but also maintain the operation of the road.

Although the construction of towns requires government funds to build roads, it is indisputable that if the army expands will inevitably bring about a reduction in funds, so Gao Yi's opposition is also very reasonable.

In order to implement this plan, Gao Yi made a lot of efforts, first persuaded several parliamentarians, and later personally visited this generation. Therefore, his opposition to the military expansion plan is understandable.

However, the expansion plan should not be abandoned because of his opposition. The army still has to be expanded, and although the discussion in the council hall has not reached a conclusion, everyone is thinking about the plan in private.

At the meeting where he pondered for a moment, Yuan Kejun, speaker of the parliament, proposed: "I think the plan for expanding the army can be implemented step by step, first expanding one battalion at the end of this year, then increasing it to two next year, and then increasing it to three in '44, so that it will also reduce the expenditure of funds within a certain range." ”

"This method is good, but it still can't keep up with the combat effectiveness of the army, and if you let these recruits go to the battlefield, doesn't it mean that they will be sent to death. So I don't think it's going to work. ”

"If it doesn't work, it has to work, this method is the best at the moment, and the skills to solve the expansion plan of the troops, while taking into account the development of local towns, will not be greatly affected. Otherwise, we really can't do it both ways. ”

Yuan Kejun's proposal was supported by Gao Yi, from the current situation, this is the best way, the expansion of the army is solved, but the construction of ships has not been solved, You Nanzhe does not think that importing a few ships a year can solve the problem.

Self-built ships are the development of Australia's shipbuilding industry. Instead of renovating and importing, we feel that government departments can learn from the method of army expansion to implement it. You Nanzhe said his proposal.

However, this proposal is obviously not of great interest, after all, shipbuilding and army expansion are two different things, and it would be fine if the finances allowed, but at present, the finances are tight, and this will even drag down the government.

Shipbuilding requires the accumulation of technology, although Australia's technology has now reached a certain level, but to build its own ships must require a very large investment.

The financial pressure on the Australian government to carry out several major projects at the same time is too great, and it is very unlikely that the plan will be fully realized by 1644, but it is still possible to give certain privileges to the shipyard, after all, the domestic shipbuilding industry also needs to be developed.

The slowdown of the Dutch has proved that Australia's shipbuilding industry cannot rely entirely on the Netherlands and Western countries, otherwise it is equivalent to the lifeblood in the hands of someone else.

This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen to themselves, only they control the lifeblood of others, no one can control their lifeline, so this time You Nanzhe obtained consent on the export of steam engines, but according to the regulations on technology exports, it must be equipment that has been maintained for more than five years.

Although there is a certain gap between the military's military expansion plan and what they proposed, on the whole, the military expansion plan has been implemented. The expansion of at least one battalion per year was a real deal, and the parliament approved for the first time the full strength of two battalions of the army, which was the first shot at the expansion.

This shot can be regarded as a fire, but it is very worrying whether the military will agree to this plan, and Gao Yi was recommended by the speaker Yuan Kejun as the object of persuasion to the military, and only when the military agrees to this plan can it be said to be resolved.
