696 Temptation

Speaking of which, Australia's agricultural potential is still huge.

Throughout Australia, agriculture is divided into agriculture and animal husbandry, which can produce wheat, sugar, and cattle and sheep.

Of course, this rich production is only distributed in southern and eastern Australia. Relatively speaking, Western Australia is a desert or semi-desert in addition to mountains. It is really difficult to develop agriculture.

When they first arrived in Port Hedland, Chen Zhaoqiang and Zhu Shenggang also tried to develop agriculture. However, after experiments, they found that if Port Hedland wanted to develop agriculture, the cost would be higher than direct import, so Port Hedland's

The agricultural plan was abandoned.

In the past, all the supplies needed for daily life in Port Hedland were basically imported. Only a few fishing boats often went out to sea to catch fish, which was considered the only local specialty in Port Hedland.

We have stored a lot of cans, enough for us to last a year or two. Although we can't farm here, we can herd sheep. If the residents of Port Hedland evacuate to the Pilbara region, let them

Let's go to herd the sheep. If you can add a little bit, Chen Zhaoqiang still has an idea.

The shelf life of canned food is indeed relatively long, but for canned food, it is okay to eat it for a short period of time. If you eat it for a long time, although there will not be much nutritional problems due to the orderly mix, it will definitely cause a monotonous taste and appetite.

For other problems such as lack of energy, fresh food is still needed. Otherwise, if it continues for a long time, it will definitely have an impact on the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Chen Zhaoqiang wants to graze cattle in the Pilbara region. This is also a helpless move. Although the cost is still estimated to be astonishingly high, he can't care about it now. He will eat what he has first and then worry about other things. If he can't even guarantee his survival, then what else can he do?

Money has no effect either.

Well, starting tomorrow, the residents of Port Hedland will begin to evacuate to the Pilbara region, and I will leave it to you two. Jack thought wisely and handed over Port Hedland to Chen Zhaoqiang and Zhu Shenggang.

Jack, Chen Zhaoqiang and Zhu Shenggang have a division of labor. Chen Zhaoqiang and Zhu Shenggang will not participate in the construction of Port Hedland or the management of the mining area; Jack will not participate in the military. Even if he stays, it will not be of much help in the subsequent battle.

, so Jack will also retreat to the Pilbara region.

The Pilbara region is actually not far from Port Hedland. The straight-line distance is about a hundred kilometers. The evacuation work is not troublesome. There is a railway connecting the Pilbara region and Port Hedland. Although the railway is

It was built to transport ore, and it was also used to transport people.

Don't be too anxious. As soon as Timothy left, even if the Parth Council decided to attack Port Hedland, it would still take half a month to mobilize. When Parth's army comes, I'm afraid it will be a month later, so we

There is still time. Old God Chen Zhaoqiang is here.

Chen Zhaoqiang used the combat effectiveness of the Anzac Corps during the World War to estimate the reaction speed of the National Guard in Perth City. In fact, the real situation is worse than this. Although the National Guard in Perth City is also composed of former members of the Anzac Corps, it has never been

In terms of combat effectiveness, the current Pas National Guard is not even remotely inferior to the Anzac Corps during the World War. It is not the same at all.

So why don't we continue to buy supplies? Jack still wants to continue hoarding supplies.

If we transport supplies from Lanfang to Port Hedland, it actually doesn't take too long. A month is enough for several cargo ships to make several trips. If we continue to buy supplies, we can still transport them back.

No, we have almost enough supplies to defeat the National Guard in Pas City. Even if the Australian government directly intervenes in this matter, we will not have no spare power, so it doesn't matter. Chen Zhaoqiang is not worried.

Not to mention the Australian government, even the Perth City Government has to cross an ocean if they want to send troops to Port Hedland. This is not easy. The 1,800-kilometer logistics supply line is a desperate length.

.

Before preparing for war, we have one more thing to do. The people on this list must be arrested immediately. Those who should be repatriated to their place of origin and those who should be dealt with must not be tolerated. Chen Zhaoqiang took out a list and handed it to Jack.

What's wrong with Qiao Qiao? As soon as he saw the first name, Jack exclaimed and lost his voice.

Joe is Jack's friend. After Jack settled down in Port Hedland, Joe came to join Jack from the UK and ran a shipping company with three cargo ships in Port Hedland.

Joe is an agent. He serves the British. He has been leaking information about Port Hedland to the British. The people on this list are all agents. They are not only serving the British, but also the Americans.

There are those who serve the Australian government and even those who serve the French. Chen Zhaoqiang explained clearly and looked at Jack with a bit of pity.

Port Hedland occupies an important position in Qin Zhiyuan's territory. The Lanfang National Security Bureau will definitely not relax here. This list is the result of the work of Lanfang National Security Bureau agents.

In fact, agents cannot be completely cleaned up. Even if they find one and arrest one, they will continue to send them over. Therefore, after the Lanfang National Security Bureau discovered the agents, they did not deal with them immediately. Instead, they closely monitored those agents and let them go.

Serve other countries.

Of course, this is a method that is only used in peacetime. In wartime, all these hidden dangers must be eliminated, otherwise they may cause some trouble.

Joe, I will go in person. Jack understands the meaning of an agent, but as a good friend, Jack still wants to question Joe face to face.

Okay, I'll leave it to you, Qiao. On this issue, Chen Zhaoqiang doesn't want to get into a stalemate with Jack. Anyway, Qiao's outcome is doomed.

After a brief discussion, Jack and Chen Zhaoqiang and Zhu Shenggang each performed their respective responsibilities, and the work began immediately.

At dinner time, Jack prepared a dinner at the Governor's Mansion and sent someone to invite Joe.

Joe had been a guest at Jack's Governor's Mansion before, so after receiving Jack's invitation, Joe was happy to attend the banquet.

In order to say goodbye to his friends, Jack still had the intention to have a sumptuous dinner, which surprised Joe.

It seems like something happened, otherwise you wouldn't be so generous. Joe held a bottle of wine as a gift and looked at Jack with a smile.

Joe and Jack are about the same age. They are both in their thirties. They are old friends, so they talk more casually. Compared to Jack, who is a bit rugged now, Joe can be described as elegant, whether it is the crisp suit or the

The rimless glasses on the bridge of the nose exuded a gentle and bookish atmosphere, which is why Jack and Joe have a good relationship.

Yes, after this meal, I will leave Port Hedland, so this is our last meal. Jack did not hide anything from Joe. At this time of parting, Jack did not intend to hide anything anymore.

What happened? Joe asked Jack concernedly. He opened the wine he brought and poured it into the decanter.

The Pas City Government wants to raise taxes again. This time the increase is too much. Neither I nor my boss can bear it, so my boss decided to have a showdown with the Pas City Government. Jack revealed an important piece of news as soon as he opened his mouth.

.

Who is your boss qualified to do this? Sure enough, just as Jack expected, when he heard Jack say this, Joe's eyes clearly showed excitement, and the hand that poured the wine was trembling.

There are not many people in this world who are qualified to be my boss. Think about where all the ore has been transported, you should know. Jack's expression was a little depressed, and there was resentment growing in his heart.

You mean Qin Qiao gave an obvious answer.

Yes, it’s Qin, he is my boss. Although everything here is mine in name, it is actually his, including these ores, so now you understand why those ores are sold so expensive, right?

Because Qin didn't need to pay at all, he just handed over his left hand to his right hand. In addition to the tax payable, Qin didn't need to pay an extra shilling. It was for this reason that the Pas city government's decision to increase taxes annoyed Jack Qin.

It's really unbelievable to say the least.

It is really unimaginable that all of this actually belongs to Qin. Qiao was a little stunned when he heard this. The impact of this news was really too great.

It has been more than a year since Joe came to Port Hedland. It can be said that the total amount of information Joe has obtained in more than a year is not as important as what he obtained in these two minutes. Now Joe no longer wants to eat, he just wants to go home quickly.

Then send this message out.

Hmm, the reward this time should not be small, maybe you can retire soon

Not only that, but the Pilbara region and the army in the Pilbara region belong to Qin. Jack continued to break the news and successfully attracted Joe's interest.

There is an army in the Pilbara region. Joe feels like he is going to faint. This is another explosive news.

Of course there are, and there are a lot of them, otherwise how could Qin have the confidence to fall out with the Perth City Government? In the Pilbara region, there are now four divisions, two of which were directly retired from Lanfang's army, so

You should understand now why Qin is not afraid of the Pas City Government. Jack not only talked about it, but also revealed specific data, which made Qiao feel unreal.

The army alone is not enough to fight against the Australian or British governments. Joe doesn't think Port Hedland has much chance of winning this battle.

Qiao still has traditional thinking. As a port city, as long as the port is blocked, the war will basically end. Stalking is not the European style. When the situation is unfavorable, Europeans will compromise and strive for a comeback.

The thinking of the Chinese is different. The Chinese are the kind of character who would rather live in pieces than in ruins. When the Chinese were ruled by foreigners in history, a large number of Chinese resisted to the end every time. This is also an important reason why the Chinese nation can continue to this day.

To be continued.
