June 5, 58.

Argentine President Frondisi visited the Ming Empire and was warmly welcomed by Head of State Yang.

The next day, the two heads of state jointly attended the signing ceremony of a series of trade contracts. According to these contracts, Argentina will become the second largest importer of grain and meat from the Ming Dynasty after the United States in the next five years, and Argentina will also become the second largest exporter of the Ming Dynasty seed pesticides and veterinary medicine after the United States.

Previously, this role was played by Australia.

Just the day after the signing of these contracts, the Ministry of Commerce of the Ming Empire suspended all grains originating from Australia on the grounds that the pesticide residues imported from Australia exceeded the standard. Immediately afterwards, the Ming Customs suspended the entry of all meat products originating from Australia on the grounds that the new virus was detected in beef imported from Australia. Even milk powder originating from Australia was detected to exceed the standard.

Well, this is how Head of State Yang told the Americans...

I'm ready, let's start!

So what about the Americans and the Kangaroos?

They are ready, too.

By this time, the Kangaroos had expanded their army to 500,000. For a country with a population of 10 million, an army of this size was already very large.

The four missile cruisers donated by the Americans also joined their fleet, and a modern aircraft carrier formation was officially formed. Three mixed m60 and m48a3 armored divisions of the Army were also formed. The Air Force received eight 104 squadrons and four 105 squadrons, and eight 100 squadrons and two B47 bomber squadrons. They themselves also had four Canberra squadrons and ten sabre squadrons. The air defense forces received sixteen companies of Niki missiles in total. Seven defense zones were deployed around Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Darwin.

It can be said that the average equipment level is beyond the reach of the US military itself. For example, the US military did not accept the first batch of m60 until now.

What else can I worry about like this? Since Yang Feng has issued a letter of war, of course they have to continue.

Western Australia, Perth.

The headquarters of the Western Australia Mining Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Mining, was in a mess. A large number of police and tax personnel from the Western Australian government were conducting surprise inspections on the 50-storey Perth landmark building. The white government employees were lying on all the information documents with a dedicated attitude of picking their bones and searching for things that could be used. The Chinese company employees were watching with their arms around, but a large number of white company employees were angrily quarreling with the government employees in vain.

Half an hour later, the tax secretary who was in charge of the inspection walked to the manager of the largest Australian company with a serious look in front of Sir Chen Feng, who has dual nationalities of Ming and British. Then he read the inspection results to him in an official tone. The Western Australian Mining Industry was suspected of tax evasion and ordered all its companies to temporarily stop all business activities and wait for subsequent processing.

After saying that, he looked at Chen Feng.

The latter was sitting behind his large desk with his eyes closed, accompanying the sound of opera in the recorder next to him, leisurely tapping the table with his fingers at the rhythm, obviously not going to pay attention to him.

The director threw down the handling notice in disappointment and turned around and walked out the door.

"Smith, do you think you will win?"

Chen Feng suddenly said behind him.

"Just, we have a population of 10 million, and we are the most brave and warlike people. Even women can use weapons. As long as we are willing, we can arm a million troops at any time. Behind us, we have the most powerful country in the world as a backing, and we still have a vast land of seven million square kilometers. Why can't we win?"

The director turned his head and said.

"Then let's wait and see."

Chen Feng, who was still closed his eyes, shrugged and said.

One hour later.

Yongfeng, a small inland town in northwestern Australia, is 1,100 kilometers away from Perth.

This Chinese place name is named after the first Chinese mining engineer who arrived here. The official name of this place on the Australian map is Wheelbuck Mountain, the world's largest open-pit iron ore, with a total reserve of 1.5 billion tons and an annual output of more than 10 million tons. It is precisely because the Chinese mining engineers discovered this giant iron ore on this red wasteland six years ago, and the continuous influx of Chinese miners built the town.

And there are many similar towns in this area.

For example, Zhenbang, which is only 200 kilometers apart, is called Tom Price on the Australian map. It was also built by workers from Huaxia Mining after the discovery of the iron ore. In the previous area, the population of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land in this area was only 10,000 or 20,000. It is precisely because of the iron ore that everything here has been found. Railways, cities, and ports are all from iron ore.

The ore mined by these iron ores was transported to Hedland Port by road and railway, and then loaded with ocean-going ships waiting there, ships were sent to Southeast Asia, to the steel mills of the Ming Dynasty and all Chinese consortiums, and turned into tens of millions of tons of high-quality steel, into cars, giant tankers, and skyscrapers, like solid pillars, supporting the increasingly huge empire of the Chinese economy with the Ming Dynasty as its core.

Last year, 50 million tons of iron ore were transported from Hedland Port.

But in the same way, these mines have become the treasures of the Australian government and the white people's salivation. The Chinese who have continued to pour into this area have also become the enemies that the White Australians hate. On this continent with the most deeply rooted discrimination, the white people have continued the White Australian policy for more than half a century. The descendants of the miraculous and criminals are hostile to all other skin-colored races trying to share with them this rich continent, especially the Chinese, whose hatred of the Chinese began in the 19th century.

Now, because of the covetous iron ore, this kind of hatred has been pushed to the extreme.

"Get out, you thieves who steal our iron ore, your good days are over."

Entering the entrance of a main street in the town, hundreds of white miners swear proudly at a group of Chinese miners walking towards them.

Of course, it is impossible for only Chinese miners here. In fact, more than one-third are still white. Just now, the police and tax personnel sent by the Western Australian government came here to order the mine to stop operating, and at the same time required all Chinese miners to prohibit leaving the mining area. Even the helicopters of the Australian garrison airlifted a platoon of soldiers and blocked the entire town.

The white miners immediately understood that the Australian government was finally determined to retake the mine.

Of course these guys were happy. As long as the Chinese were driven away, they were the pillar of this mine. In the future, promotion and salary increase would be indispensable. What's more, the mine management was basically Chinese before, so they had been jealous of this for a long time. Now that they finally got their wish, they naturally couldn't help but vent.

The Chinese miners who were walking towards the residential area under the surveillance of Australian soldiers watched their performances coldly.

The person in charge of the mine had told them that they would just go back to the residential area and wait, and they wouldn't wait too long. Since this is the case, there is no need to argue with these white people. Anyway, these guys were crying when the Ming army came over.

However, at this moment, a woman's scream suddenly came from a shop not far from them. Then a white miner walked out with a large box of things, followed by a Chinese woman, holding him with his hands and accusing him angrily. It was obvious that the guy didn't pay the money. This scene made other white people feel ready to move. They suddenly remembered that the Chinese here have no Australian nationality, but actually came here as laborers, which means that everything about them is not protected by Australian laws.

"Aren't you going to care?"

A Chinese executive from an iron mine pointed to the white miner who was turning back and kicking the woman away, and said angrily to an officer beside him.

The latter shrugged casually without any answer.

The executive looked at the Chinese miners with a gloomy face.

Almost at the same time, two Chinese miners in the crowd suddenly slowed down and approached an officer who was monitoring them in a tacit understanding. At this time, all the Australian soldiers were attracted to the eyes of them, while the white miners who were shouting at them were flocking to all the nearby Chinese shops, taverns and even banks, and no one paid attention to them at all.

The two Chinese miners who moved to the officer inadvertently turned their eyes to each other and suddenly rushed forward. One of them raised his foot and kicked the officer directly at the knee, while the other punched him in the head. The officer caught off guard subconsciously pulled out his gun, but just as he untied the holster, he fell straight forward under the front and back forces. During the fall, he still pulled out the pistol, but at the same time, a miner snatched the pistol from his hand at a very fast speed. In a blink of an eye, he pulled out the sleeve and shot an Australian soldier nearby with a gun.

The latter had just picked up Garland in his hand, and was hit by the force of the bullet and suddenly shook back. Just as he pulled the trigger with his finger, a miner closest to him also grabbed the barrel.

As two gunfires sounded, the Chinese miners who had already been furious in the crowd almost all rushed towards the nearest Australian soldiers and police. Their number was over a thousand, what could only be used by dozens of soldiers and police? What's more, these miners were all strong young and middle-aged men, and many of them were retired Ming soldiers. Even if they were not retired soldiers, they would conduct regular military training every year. It can be said that the Australians were disarmed in the blink of an eye.
