1825 My New Daming

Chapter 473 The Australian Khanate on the Prairie! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

From a certain point of view, the war that took place on the southern continent after the British Royal Navy lost the Pacific Ocean Battle was a war between advanced industrial civilization and backward grassland civilization!

Among them, the representative of advanced industrial civilization is of course the Great Tomorrow Dynasty that landed on the southern continent!

The fleet of tens of square miles, the ironclad warships that climbed onto the beach after being "spirits", and hundreds of wheeled armored vehicles spit out from the "bloody mouth" of the "ironclad warships", of course represent advanced industrial civilization.

Just the vehicles, artillery, guns, ammunition, medicines, combined docks, and engineering equipment used to build bridges and roads that the Ming army sent to the beach within 24 hours after landing on the "criminal beach" were even used to feed the busy The field rations for the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who worked overtime could not be easily provided by a country with a low degree of industrialization, let alone the fleet of tens of square miles.

It is no exaggeration to say that without the support of the world's largest, most complete, and most advanced industrial system, the Ming army would never have fired a bullet or a shell on the beach in Brisbane!
On the other hand, the British army of 1833 legions and 1 divisions that set off from the Sydney fortress area on January 8, 7 was actually a deindustrialized "prairie army". Although the United Kingdom is still the world's number one The second industrial country still has a complete and self-sufficient industrial system.

But after the defeat of the British Royal Navy in the Pacific, shipping between the United Kingdom and the Dominions of Australia could no longer be maintained.And Britain has never invested in any industry in Australia. This Australian industry is not comparable to that of the United Kingdom, and even the industry of the Dajin Kingdom, which is bored in Central Asia, is not comparable to her.

Dajin was able to produce rifles and rifle bullets in 1826. After the railway track (not the railway) was opened, the progress was even faster. By the end of 1832, Dajin was able to produce machine guns, small and medium-caliber mountain artillery, Train locomotives, ordinary construction steel and rails, steam engines and locomotives, and even use the artillery system purchased from Daming to assemble a wood-hulled steam gunship-after the Daikin Navy was established 6 years ago, it finally has the first ship that can Sea-going surface ships!

None of the above can be manufactured by the Dominion of Australia. Now Australia doesn’t even have an industrial chain that can produce muskets and gunpowder. In fact, if there is no externally imported iron, Australia can’t even make a machete!

As for what Australia can produce now?It is mainly animal husbandry products, such as cattle, sheep, and horses, which can be mass-produced!Of course, it can also produce wool, cowhide, milk, butter, cheese, etc. This industrial structure is actually similar to the Junggar, Horqin, and Heshuote Mongolian ministries attached to the Dajin Kingdom.

If Ming's blockade of Australia continues, in another 20 years, Australia's white skins may really become like grassland nomads.

In fact, today’s Australia has nothing to do with industrial countries. She is a grassland khanate. Most of Australia’s coasts are highlands, which block the water vapor, so a little bit inland is a large grassland.

Immediately on the shore of Sydney Cove, Hugh Goff, who watched groups of cavalry, mounted infantry, and mounted artillery of the Australian Legion riding horses, wielding sabers or carbines, passing by, heading towards the mountains of the Great Dividing Range, also at this time The question arose—is this still the army of the British Empire?Why do you look so much like the Dajin soldiers of Emperor Daoguang?

Just as he was thinking about strange questions, a rush of hoofbeats came, interrupting his thoughts.It was a signalman, bringing him a telegram he had just received.

Brigadier General Clinton, Hugh Gough's chief of staff, hurriedly took the envelope containing the telegram, opened it, took out the telegram inside, and read it. After reading it, he frowned and said to Hugh Gough: "Admiral, Brisbane The Ming Navy in the fortress carried out the third landing operation, targeting Bribie Island, Moreton Island, and North Stradbroke Island."

These three islands are not small, forming a ring outside the port of Brisbane, encircling a bay.

Hugh Goff said calmly: "It seems that they want to completely take down the Port of Brisbane!"

Brigadier General Clinton said: "The Ming army who landed has a lot of heavy equipment. Unlike us, they can ride horses across the grasslands of Australia. Even without bullets and shells, they can also fight with sabers and long guns. They rely on a large number of The artillery and vehicles, which put a lot of pressure on logistics. So they must take the Port of Brisbane, otherwise relying on beachhead supplies, the Ming army that landed will not be able to sustain it.”

Hugh Goff frowned even tighter, "Commander, your words make me feel like we are backward barbarians, but they... are the conquerors with advanced technology and civilization!"

When Brigadier General Clinton heard this, he was stunned and speechless—"Being behind will be beaten" has always been an undoubted truth in the 19th century and many centuries before, and the British are very special. believe this.

Not to mention the old colonists such as Admiral Hugh Goff and Brigadier General Clinton, even the "Snow White" Victoria is a social Darwinist through and through. Otherwise, she would not have opposed the relief of the starving people in Ireland in history up.

With the financial resources of the British Empire at that time, it was no problem at all to feed the millions of Irish who had no potatoes to eat!Moreover, the queen who "rules but does not rule" has more power than the later British monarch. If it is not for the social Darwinism that "the poor deserve to starve to death" and "the backward should be beaten", she insists on parliament spending money to save people. can be done.Even if it can't be done, the parliament won't start a revolution because their queen is too kind, right?If you really want to do this, it will look too much like a devil.

But Victoria was not only unwilling to help the victims, she even refused to allow the Ottoman Sultan, who flattered her, to donate money to the Irish to buy wheat. She looked like a devil!
But Hugh Goff and Clinton, who believed in "the poor should starve to death" and "the backward should be beaten" all their lives, suddenly found that they seemed to be the characters who should starve to death and be beaten. This feeling is really bad!
"Admiral, I mean," Brigadier General Clinton hurriedly explained, "I mean that although they are advanced, they are too dependent on logistics and are not suitable for fighting on the vast grasslands of Australia. We can fight Genghis Khan's Mongolian army Similarly, use a large number of horses to maneuver on the grasslands of Australia. We only need to draw them away from the coastline and lead them into the grasslands and deserts west of the Great Dividing Range, and we can fight the enemy like the army of the Mongol Empire.”

Hugh Goff took a breath. Brigadier General Clinton's theory was correct. Australia has a lot of grasslands and deserts, which looks similar to the territory of the Mongols.Therefore, the "Australian Khanate" with a large number of horses does have an advantage.But the question is. How did the Mongols fight?Also. Who was the Mongol Empire defeated in history?It seems to be Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
Can this learn from the Mongols to fight against the industrialized army of the Ming Dynasty?
