Five days later

City of Wollongong

As far as the eye could see, there was a ruined wall, green smoke rising from the burnt black beams, blood stains on the ruined streets, and the smell of gunpowder smoke after the war mixed with the smell of blood, which was the smell of war.

After three days and three nights of urban offensive and defensive battles, this important town more than 80 kilometers north of Sydney was finally taken, as many as 27,000 white defenders were killed, wounded or captured, and the entire city was also destroyed, leaving less than 30% of the buildings still standing, and the walls were full of bullet marks.

If it weren't for the astonishing scale of the Battle of Consby Plateau, the offensive and defensive battles of Wollongong City would have been a classic, at least the will of the white diehards to resist to the death was amazing, and the urban street fighting could be summed up by the word "tragic", and the repeated battles were quite fierce.

The soldiers of the mobile corps pressed the border, pressed the white captives with heavy machine guns to open the way, and launched an alley-by-lane battle, and finally won the final victory after a hard battle.

Due to the heavy damage of the A Corps, it will take longer to repair and replenish.

The Army General Staff Headquarters handed over the task of conquering Wollongong, Newcastle and other important towns along the way to the mobile corps, which had been on standby, and the mobile corps drove 15,000 white prisoners to attack for three days and three nights, and finally most of the defenders in the city were annihilated.

There is no need to repeat the details one by one, but it is an indisputable fact that the mountains of corpses and blood fought in the offensive and defensive battles of Wollongong.

post-war inventory;

Under the cover of superior artillery fire, the 15,000 white captives lost more than 8,300 people, and the mobile corps lost more than 660 Chinese troops, with a total loss of more than 9,000 people. So after the war, the angry Mobile Corps carried out a bloody liquidation of the white defenders in the city.

All white soldiers with human lives in their hands were suppressed, all officers were suppressed, and it was better to kill than let go of mistakes, and this important town that the white people stubbornly held on to was completely washed in blood.

Final Statistics;

The mobile corps incorporated nearly 10,000 white prisoners, mixed with more than 6,000 white prisoners who had participated in the siege and survived the bloody battle, with 2,000 people as a regiment, a total of 8 volunteer regiments were formed, ready to be used as the main cannon fodder for the next attack on Newcastle, and put them into the battlefield again.

All the soldiers of the Volunteer Regiment still used the single-fight Martini-Henry MKI. rifles originally equipped by the Confederate Army, but the new white captives had no bullets in their guns, while the white captives who participated in the siege of the city could fire 5 bullets per gun, which was used to deter the new captives and was more trusted.

These white captives who participated in the bloody siege of the city were stained with the blood of their comrades and could never turn back.

After the reconquest of Wollongong, the total number of white prisoners in the hands of the Mobile Corps increased to 16,000, which gave them full confidence in the next step of capturing the important town of Newcastle.

After the end of the tragic siege and defense of the city of Wollongong, the Mobile Corps sent a small force to sweep the coastal inland towns and villages, and carried out dragnet screening of white farmers and white cowboy families who actively participated in the military operations of the southern rebels.

At the same time, weapons were seized in the area, and the township was cleared and traitors were cracked down, and white extremists were severely exposed......

In a time of war when there is a shortage of troops and no information, there is no better time to carry out a wave of complete liquidation of white extremists in the South.

The will that originated from the top was thoroughly carried out, and it was also part of the overall plan to clean the house......

As one of the two main corps of the war, Corps B rushed south along the railway line and arrived in Canberra a week later, regardless of these trivial matters.

The sporadic battles along the way did not affect the southward movement of the main force of the B Corps, and all the remnants of the white bandits were wiped out like a whirlwind, which could not stop the southward movement of the Corps in the slightest.

The town of Canberra is an open valley in the foothills of Australia's Kosciasco Mountains, where the flowing Bhanglow River flows through the area.

It was discovered in 1820 and since then immigrants have come to build pastures, and by 1840 it had developed into a small town with a population of about 780 people.

After 1887, a large number of Chinese railroad workers poured in as the southern extension of the coastal railway passed through this area, and it further prospered, rapidly developing into a railway town with a population of more than 6,000.

The town of Canberra is the southernmost extension of the Coastal Railway, where the railway was built until the early 1890s when construction had to be halted due to the rapid deterioration of relations between the North and the South, and it became the southernmost point of the southern extension of the Coastal Railway, where a large amount of construction materials were piled up.

Due to the imminent war, a large number of Chinese residents in the town evacuated here, and the railway workers and the railway cavalry division defending this place totaled about 2,200 people, and held this place as the southernmost stronghold of the Ocean Kingdom.

After the fall of Canberra, the Chinese resistance army in the mountains held out for more than a month after the Southern Union Army entered the mountains several times to encircle and suppress them, and finally there were less than 200 Chinese officers and soldiers left, which can be described as heavy losses.

With the army recovering the town of Canberra, the Canberra defenders, who had been fighting guerrilla warfare in the mountains, returned to their homeland, led by Major Shi Fusheng, who was born in the Eagle School, and was the former commander of the Third Regiment of the Railway Cavalry Division.

This is a mid-level military officer with a deep hatred of white Southern extremists, who is in charge of a purge in the area around Canberra Town after a life-long escape.

It's entirely conceivable;

Even if he digs three feet into the ground, Major Shi Fusheng will not allow a white extremist with Chinese blood on his hands to escape severe punishment.

After the contradictions between the north and the south were thoroughly intensified, thousands of families were torn apart and their wives separated in the violent social turmoil, including Chinese families and white families, all of whom were inevitably involved in the surging tide of history, which was undoubtedly a social tragedy.

The town of Canberra is 238 kilometres north of Sydney and 507 kilometres south of Melbourne, from where it is almost a third of the way south to Victoria's border, from which it is almost a third of the way to Melbourne.

Further south from the small town of Canberra is a vast expanse of forest, with numerous streams that originate in the Great Dividing Range and endless stretches of fertile pasture, fertile land and a pleasant climate.

Stretching hundreds of kilometers to the south, there are countless large and small white pastures, with a high degree of land development, which is a place where white colonists have always been concentrated, conservative forces are quite rampant, and it is also one of the important military sources in Victoria and New South Wales.

The Evanston Cavalry Division, which numbered in the tens of thousands of men, came from this area, and Livingston was a traditional agricultural and pastoral town surrounded by a dense concentration of white ranchers, especially Irish and Scottish whites, and a considerable number of white English descendants.

In the sequence of the Confederate Army, there are at least no less than nine white militia divisions from this area, and the number of soldiers is often 100,000.

The history of development dates back more than 100 years, when the First Fleet, which first arrived in Australia, sailed into Australia's Botany Bay on 18 January 1788, with 736 prisoners out of a crew of more than 1,500, and eighteen days later on 6 February 1788, Captain Philip led 211 prisoners and 60 crew members south to the area.

Many of them ended up living in the area and were the first settlers here.

Today

From Canberra to Melbourne, a distance of 507 kilometers in a straight line, with a depth of more than 250,000 square kilometers, there are more than one million white colonists living in total, as well as a total of more than 100,000 Chinese immigrants (after severe persecution), accounting for more than 7 percent of the white population in the southern state, which is the traditional concentration area of white colonists, densely populated, and reactionary forces are rampant.

Melbourne alone and Ballarat, an important gold mining region, have a total population of more than 600,000, and if you add the nearby towns, there are more than 700,000 white people living in the towns, and the population density is quite high, because the factors of gold resources are also high, and the degree of hostility to foreign populations (especially Chinese immigrants) is also high.

The total population of Sydney, the traditional metropolis of New South Wales, is only 2560,000, the important gold mining area of Ballarat alone has more than 60,000 miners, more than 170 large and small gold mines, and the total population of the whole city is as high as more than 170,000 people, and there are no less than 100 large and small taverns alone, and there are more than 3,300 Nanyang sisters who come all the way from Fusang to make money for skin and meat, which does not include women engaged in the skin and meat business in other South Pacific island countries, which shows the prosperity of related industries.

Victoria is the smallest state in the whole of Australia, the smallest mainland state in Australia, with a total land area of about 224,700 square kilometers, almost the same area as the British Isles, but it is the richest and most developed autonomous state.

To the northeast is a mountainous area with peaks between 1,000 and 2,000 meters above sea level, and to the southeast, it is covered with vast forests and numerous caves and lakes. To the west, there are vast hills and grasslands, known as the "Garden State", which is Australia's traditional economic state, and it is also Australia's most densely populated, most colonized, and most developed state in agriculture and animal husbandry (if not Queensland)

The Great Dividing Range, which is more than 300 kilometers wide, enters from the northeast, gradually narrows and decreases westward, and finally ends at the Granpian Mountains, forming a central highland that spans the entire territory.

The highest mountain, Bogun, is 1,986 meters above sea level. To the north of the Central Highlands is the plain of the south bank of the Murray River, which includes the western part of the Mali eucalyptus scrubland, the Wimmera River region, and the northern district.

To the south of the highlands is the Southern Plains, where small areas of highlands such as the Otway Mountains and South Gippsland rise within the coast. The coastline is 1,800 kilometers long.

Port Phillip Bay is the largest bay on the southern coast of the state and Australia, and the Murray River flows 1,870 kilometers along the state border, which is the most conspicuous boundary river between New South Wales and Victoria, which is the longest inland river in Australia and the largest seasonal river.

The river and its southern tributaries irrigate Victoria's important northern agricultural and pastoral regions, where streams run through the river and water is abundant, from the Wimmerra River to Lake Hindmarsh and the Glenelg River to Bass Strait.

Victoria is a temperate state with hot summers and cool winters, moderate rainfall, and a cold climate in the cold season at the end of today's Xiaoice River, often covered with snow.

Overall

Whether it is the climatic conditions or the abundance of resources, it can throw off the eighteen streets of the British Isles, it is an out-and-out natural choice, and Victoria can let the people of the whole state live a prosperous life not inferior to that of Europe with its rich gold resources.

As for the abundant coal mines, timber, water conservancy, and various mineral resources, there is no spare time to develop them, and it can be said that it is one of the representative areas with no humanity in the food trenches with resources, and as long as you dig something casually, you can easily become one of the rich countries in the world.

Think about it......

Such a wealthy area, and a traditional dense area of white colonists, can live a rich and peaceful life just by digging up some resources, and of course do not want outsiders to get involved.

The outsiders here are, of course, overseas Chinese, especially in the country where the Chinese in northern Queensland are in power, and the southern white exclusion psychology is very serious, on the one hand, because of Victoria's radical propaganda, and on the other hand, because of the narrow regional psychology of local white people.

To be fair, the ass decides the head.

If Lieutenant General Mo Rufeng is a white southerner, he may be able to understand the unimaginable will of these white southerners to resist, but unfortunately everything is hypothetical after all, and the powerful B Corps army group is not here to do good deeds, but to descend in the form of conquerors.

Lieutenant General Mo Rufeng only brought a stick and no carrots, and after a short day of rest in Canberra, he sent the Red First Division, the main force of his trump card, to open the way, and the corps of more than 80,000 people followed up and began to exterminate all dissidents along the way.

How to judge is simple;

For example, when the army passed by, those who dared to hold a gun in their hands, and the white people with unclean mouths and unruly eyes were all targeted for repression, and they were either directly killed in coolie camps or directly killed, and their homes were confiscated.

Military conquest is so arrogant and unreasonable, Lieutenant General Mo Rufeng is not here to be a good man, the conquering army passes through this place, like an iron comb, and then the mobile corps takes over the security along the way, and it has to be sifted again like an iron comb.

In the end, the special task force of the Political Service Department was stationed in various cities and towns, and they still had to be screened again with iron and blood, and for those white people who dared to stand up and resist the rule of the northern government, they would cut a few stubbles like leeks to ensure the harmony and stability of the conquered areas and long-term peace and stability.

Needless to say, the ensuing mass immigration, the protracted crackdown and heavy punishment are all in the meaning of the topic, supplemented by cultural education, religion and many administrative means to naturalize and integrate the white community, which should be a means that can be imagined.

For Lieutenant General Mo Rufeng, he has no spare time to do the time-consuming psychological counseling and naturalization work.

The army crossed;

Whoever is unruly will be killed.

Those who are hostile to the regime in the north, kill.

Those who have blood debts on their hands stained with the blood of Chinese immigrants will be killed.

Those who incite national sentiments against each other, kill.

Whoever fights by force or intends to use force to fight, kills.

……

As for whether there are people who were killed by mistake, this question is really difficult to answer, anyway, the military will never admit it, and there is not so much attention paid to it during the war, and it will be a confused account decades later.
