January 10, 1902, 8 a.m., Sydney, on the square opposite the National Government Building.

After a long period of preparation, the much-anticipated Australia Day has finally arrived.

Early this morning, more than 10,000 people gathered in this square, some of them carried stools and food, and some of them simply took nothing, directly took relatives and friends to occupy a good position, and then sat on the ground and began to talk.

But it's not easy to get a good spot in this small square. The excellent location near the parade platform and the parade avenue has already been booked, and even came here the day before, but the purpose is just to occupy a better position at the parade.

That's enough to see the madness of Australians. In order to be able to see their Royal Highness the Duke more closely, as well as the soldiers who have been training for more than half a year, what does it matter if they don't sleep all night to occupy a position?

As time passed, there were more and more people in the square. Even outside the square, there were huge crowds, and several of Sydney's main streets were blocked with water.

Thankfully, cars aren't officially sold yet, otherwise cars wouldn't be on the road on days like today.

With the bell of the bell tower, the arrival of eight o'clock is officially announced.

A car slowly drove from a distance, and it was the personal car that Benz and Diesel had built for Arthur.

After modification, the body materials are made of reinforced steel and laminated glass, which can basically ensure the safety of the occupants as long as it is not a strafing of heavy machine guns and rifles.

Because of this, the cost of this car is very high, and on the premise of strengthening the protection ability, it can also ensure that the power of the vehicle itself is not lost or even slightly improved.

When the crowd saw the car coming, they understood that it was their beloved Royal Highness the Duke.

The crowd erupted in cheers as Arthur arrived.

The guards opened the car door, and Arthur stepped out, chuckling and nodding to the crowd, and then joined the government officials, with Arthur leading the way to the parade platform.

On the stage was a microphone that had already been prepared, connected to several large loudspeakers around the square.

In order for people around the square and even in the surrounding streets to hear Arthur and other officials, the government had no choice but to use large PA equipment.

Although this will make people who are closer to the scene feel louder, it will not cause damage to people's ears, which is also the result of government testing.

As Arthur approached the microphone, the National Day ceremony officially began.

"Good morning, all the people of Australia." Arthur looked at the audience and slowly spoke: "Today, for Australia, is a great day. Our great motherland, Australia, was officially inaugurated two years ago today. In the blink of an eye, two years have passed, and we have witnessed the country we love from a barren land with nothing to an emerging country with a certain industrial base. We built industry, built schools, hospitals, nursing homes, orphanages and a range of facilities for the benefit of Australians. Now, we can finally proudly claim that we have the confidence to live in Australia and to live happily in Australia! ”

With Arthur's speech, the audience applauded continuously, which seemed to confirm the development of Australia during this time.

"But that's not the ultimate goal for me and the government and for Australia, and we still have to keep working for it, and so does the government and all Australians. We need to build a better welfare system to ensure and respect the rights of every Australian. We also want to develop our army and ensure the self-reliance and tranquility of our great country. Australia.... ”

Arthur's speech lasted for half an hour, and the content of the speech was thousands of characters.

Much of this celebrates the merits of the Australian government and royal family, and encourages all Australians to keep moving forward.

Judging from Arthur's status and prestige in the hearts of Australians, the chicken soup in this is very effective, making many Australians like chicken blood, eager to devote themselves to Australia's development struggle.

Seeing that his speech had successfully ignited the scene, Arthur nodded with satisfaction and handed over the next link to Prime Minister Evan.

Naturally, Arthur could not preside over the entire National Day ceremony, so the responsibility was handed over to Prime Minister Evan in the government's most prestigious position.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I declare the celebration of Australia's second anniversary officially begins! First, all Australians are invited to watch solemnly as our flag is raised in this sky and musical! Prime Minister Evan said solemnly.

There are no clear regulations on such a thing as a national anthem, and most countries in the world do not have a national anthem.

Therefore, important events in Australia are quoted from the British national anthem, God Save the King, after all, Arthur is also a direct member of the British royal family.

As the solemn King of God slowly sounded in the sky of the square, the brightly colored Australian flag gradually rose into the sky.

Everyone at the scene, including Asse, watched the national flag slowly raise with a look of attention and solemnity.

The Australian flag fluttering in the sky spreads gracefully and soars freely in the sky.

"Next, under the orders of His Royal Highness the Duke, a military parade of the army will be held!" After the flag-raising ceremony was completed, Prime Minister Evan continued.

"Come on, soldiers. On this great occasion of the second anniversary of the founding of the motherland, under the joint witness of all the Australian people and me, let everyone see the greatness of the Australian army! Arthur said with a smile.

Arthur was very satisfied with the training of the troops.

The new army is an elite soldier trained by German training experts and soldiers of the British Royal Guard, and both military discipline and combat ability are absolutely above the excellent level.

Although it also costs a lot of training money for this, it is definitely worth it.

Bang bang bang!

With the neat and terrifying sound of horses' hooves, the cavalry battalion of the Royal Guards took the lead.

Needless to say, the prestige of the Royal Guard of the British Empire is needless to say, and the uniform weapons and clothing, coupled with the uniform pace and movements of each soldier, it looks like an iron-blooded army.

"For the glory of Your Highness, forward!" As they passed the parade stand, the soldiers of the Guards Cavalry Battalion shouted vigorously.

The third is to ask for support! Do you have any suggestions for the establishment of the army, you can talk about it
