    561 to the north

    Time passes little by little in the dispute and rush.  Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will naturally be disputes.  So every time when faced with an important choice, there will always be some people who want this, and other people who want that.  The opinions of the two factions are often very different from each other, and the disputes are extremely fierce. It seems that the contradiction between the two factions is simply irreconcilable.  What's even worse is that a little spark will trigger a bloodbath between the two factions.

    Often this is the time to test politicians.  They must put two very different political demands together, weigh them, compare them, seek common ground while reserving differences, and satisfy the vast majority of people as much as possible.  In order to avoid causing greater losses, they abandoned their hatred and hostility, lowered their status, took the initiative to communicate with their mortal enemies in private and openly, and then compromised and retreated again and again, finally reaching a result that satisfied most people.

    In the world of politics, such nastiness is being staged every day that Taoist gentlemen cannot stand and disdain to see.  But it is precisely because of these sordid blessings that many seemingly irreconcilable conflicts in history were eventually eased, and unnecessary wars were avoided again and again.

    After several years of tempering, Australian politicians are gradually becoming mature.  Although most of them are still young people.  At less than thirty years old, he holds huge wealth and power, and has unparalleled say.  And drifting away from the past life - yes, drifting away.  By now, even the most stubborn guys have adapted to life in Australia and are no longer the grassroots people they used to be.  Therefore, their way of looking at problems has gradually deviated from the perspective of ordinary people.

    So when facing an imminent war, the living soldiers became numbers on paper in their eyes.  A series of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division numbers, like the bullets produced every day in the arsenal, have become important strategic materials.  Nothing else.  They will apply a formula based on these numbers, or simply measure it to get a preliminary and inaccurate estimate, and then start to consider whether this value is worth it compared to the benefits gained.

    And in this process, certain things have different weights in the eyes of different people.  For example, the country, such as the nation If you are a passionate young man in your early twenties, you will definitely regard these two as extremely important, even more important than your own life; on the contrary, as you grow older, the once passionate young man will have  , these things will slowly fade away.  They will gradually be corrupted by this world and become profit creatures like Shao Bei.

    "Hell, do you have to compare me with me?" Shao Bei frowned angrily, looking at Xiao Baitu in front of him with his legs crossed, holding a goblet, and looking like he was overdrinking.

    "It's just a sigh, it's just a sigh." Xiao Baitu tried to explain, but there was no sign of regret in the guy's expression: "I just lamented that times have changed and people's hearts have not changed."

    "Everyone will grow." Shao Bei said casually.  He didn't like Xiao Baitu's emphasis, and he didn't like a rice insect mockingly accusing him of being profit-seeking.  In fact, when Shao Bei thought about it just now, he didn't seem to be so mercenary, and there were some things in his heart that were priceless.  Such as family, such as children Speaking of children, he thought of the guy in front of him who instigated his precious son to become a freeloader and wait to die.  Then there was an inexplicable impulse in his heart, and he wanted to use his weak fist to hit Xiao Baitu's back molar.

    At this time, the phone rang.  Shao Bei let out a sigh of relief. For a moment, he almost lost control of his inner impulse.  Then I sighed secretly in my heart, thank the phone ring, Mr. Xiao, it saved your back molar.

    Went back to the desk and picked up the phone.  On the phone, the operator first reported his work number in a sweet voice, and then told Shao Bei that the call was from the Prime Minister's Office.

    "WellwellI know." With a click, Shao Bei hung up the phone.  Facing the curious Xiao Baitu, he said: "Congress has just passed this resolution The Third Fleet will set off in seven days, rest in Manila for three days, pick up the Fourth Marine Regiment, and then go to the Hokkaido Naval Base."

    Hokkaido, this is a place that theoretically belongs to Japan, but in fact it is almost a no-owner¡¯s land in this era.  Shao Bei mentioned it a few years ago, but the situation at that time did not allow Australia to expand externally, so no one took it seriously.  Two years ago, Vice Foreign Minister Han Xu went to Japan to negotiate with the Japanese shogunate, and then sent back a telegram in an extremely surprised tone: Hokkaido belongs to Australia!

    Less than two weeks after this telegram, a fleet of three cruisers and four supply ships arrived in Hokkaido.  It only took three hours of continuous artillery fire to turn the lord and castle of a small local domain in Hokkaido into ashes.  Later they usedIt took half a year to build a naval base on the site of the ruins.

    Of course, such a thing is bound to cause panic among the Japanese.  From the shogun to the lower-level samurai, everyone was panicked.  For the Japanese, Australia is like a god.  Now the gods are angry and have destroyed a vassal state in a snap. No one knows who the Australians will attack next.  For a time, pessimism filled the entire Japanese archipelago. Maybe the Australians would launch a full-scale war of aggression, or they might gradually encroach. In short, no one believed that the Australians were just seeking a naval base in Northeast Asia.

    The shogunate and daimyo were rarely united. They organized banquets one after another to entertain Vice Foreign Minister Han Xu, and presented various gifts including gold and silver treasures, as well as the most Japanese-style gifts¡ª¡ª  woman.

    And judging from the frequency with which Han Xu talked about "How is Japan" in every three sentences when he returned to Australia to report on his work after the New Year, it is obvious that this guy's impression of Japan has changed from a favorable impression to a very favorable impression.

    This made Shao Bei once again lament the bad nature of the Japanese.  And this leads to a very ironic fact: when you are not as good as Japan, you will hate Japan very much; when you are worse than Japan, you will like Japan very much.

    "Anyway, Japanese girls deserve to be beaten." Xiao Baitu laughed and said, his open mouth even revealing the back molars that Shao Bei had always wanted to pull out.  This guy has reason to be happy, because just in his manor are hidden a dozen or so beautiful Japanese girls, ranging in age from fourteen to twenty.  In other words, this guy has a vested interest.  So this guy started to like Japan just like Han Xu.

    After laughing, Xiao Baitu seemed to have thought of something.  The Third Fleet of the Navythe Fourth Marine Regimentthe Hokkaido Naval Baseacross the Tsushima Strait, it seems that North Korea is on the other side.  Could it be that Congress plans to take action against North Korea?  This seems reasonable, because according to the latest statistics, 31% of the Manchu food came from North Korea.  Capturing North Korea was tantamount to destroying the largest granary of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.  Without food, famine would occur, and people who could not survive would take desperate risks. In other words, this would shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty's rule.

    ¡°Then Xiao Baitu began to rub his chin and wonder, apart from beautiful women, what else does North Korea have?

    Ginseng kimchi bibimbap gone, it seems like there is nothing else except these things.  And, of course, North Korean rice.  The problem is that in terms of taste and yield, Siamese rice is obviously superior.  Kimchi belongs to the food industry, whether anyone likes it is a matter of debate; ginseng belongs to the medical industry, and he has no intention of getting involved; as for Korean beautiesthis thing seems to have no other purpose than to satisfy the desire for the crotch.  Because Mr. Xiao also has no intention of human trafficking.  For him, these are just small profits.

    What¡¯s even worse is that almost all the North Korean beauties in my memory have undergone plastic surgery.  The sparkling facts told Mr. Xiao that North Korean beauties in this era had a pair of slender eyes and a flat face.  And North Koreans are the only group in the world that has anger syndrome they always get angry for no reason.  Do not believe?  Well, please open your laptop, click on a Korean movie at random, and then carefully count the number of times the protagonist is inexplicably angry and you will understand.

    After thinking for a long time, Mr. Xiao did not think of any benefits that attacking North Korea would bring to him.  So he began to get frustrated: "Why not land at Dagukou? North Korea there are no minerals in that place at all."

    "North Korea has minerals." Shao Bei corrected, and after the other party showed a hopeful look, he struck hard: "As far as I know, the uranium mines in northern North Korea are very rich."

    "Hell!" Mr. Xiao became as angry as a Korean.  The Industrial Commission once made an optimistic estimate that Australia will complete the second industrial revolution within twenty years.  It will reach the industrial level of the pre-World War I within thirty years, and some industries will reach the industrial level of the pre-World War II within fifty years.  The facts are before our eyes. Although we know that North Korea's uranium mines will be important strategic resources in the future, for Australia now, they are just a kind of radioactive waste.

    Thirty seconds later, Mr. Xiao thought of the bright side.  I believe that the combination of the Third Fleet and the Fourth Marine Regiment cannot stop the Koreans who can't even defeat a boar's skin.  This means that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is destined to lose North Korea, a large granary.  Without food support, the Manchu Qing's army would shrink, which meant that he could continue the Ma'anshan Plan.  Then he immediately became very happy, drank up a bottle of French wine that had been stored in Shaobei for 20 years, patted his butt and left.  He found his secretary as quickly as possible, and after some sex, he sent the flirtatious female secretary to book the nearest ship to Daming.

    Xiao is always a smart person, but compared to Mr. Xiao, no one is a fool.  Almost as soon as Congress passed the resolution on the Korean War, Australian capitalists all took action to move toward the Ming Dynasty in the north.Start heading off.  Just like the army of Nanming.  But at this moment, Nan Ming fell into another crisis.
