Bab 105: Chapter One Hundred and Five: Expansion of Military (Subscribe!)

On February 21, 1902, after several days of discussion with German military experts, Australia's military expansion officially began.

Of course, this round of military expansion was not to prepare for any military operations, but simply to increase Australia's military strength and ensure control over its own territory and colonies.

It is quite unfortunate that Australia chose to expand its military solely because its pitifully small army could no longer meet the needs of the defense of Australia and the New Guinea Colony, and the Guards, as an essential military force to protect the royal family, could not be stationed elsewhere.

Under such circumstances, it is essential to expand the existing military.

Australia has a population of nearly 4 million, and conservatively speaking, there should be no problem expanding the military to 40,000 to 50,000 people.
