After the cab meeting, all departments of Austrsia began to get busy, preparing for the tasks mentioned in the Four-Year n for each department, and umting their own political achievements.
The development of Austrsia over the past decade or so has been quite smooth, with sessful national construction projects and numerous political aplishments for each cab government.
However, this also means that the requirements for each cab government are bing more stringent.
With the previous and current development being so smooth, any mistakes made by ministers would be ringly contrasted against the political aplishments of previous governments. Even if the mistake itself is not serious, it would be magnified many times in thisparison.
This is simr to the famous saying, "Put down the butcher knife and be a Buddha on the spot."
A good person whomits a bad deed may be magnified many times due to the contrast against their previous behavior, and the good person bes a bad person.
If a bad person does a good deed, it will also be magnified due to the contrast against their previous behavior, and the bad person bes a good person.
In the case that no previous Austrsian government has made any mistakes, the first one that does will face unprecedented criticism.
However, with the current Austrsian government under Arthur’s control, it is difficult for problems to arise.
After all, the general direction of government development has been determined, and even if the government’s thinking deviates, it can only make minor adjustments based on the general direction. This does not significantly impact the development n and is unlikely to have much effect.
Returning to the work of the Austrsian government, what Arthur attaches most importance to is the adjustment of the defense zones by the Ministry of Defense.
After the reorganization of the Ministry of Defense, it will bnce the power with the General Staff under it. Whether this bnce is conducive to national development remains to be seen in time.
However, the good news is that there is still room for trial and error in the current Austrsia, with Arthur’s control and the fact that the war is still far away, allowing the exploration of a system suitable for Austrsia.
While the Ministry of Defense is responsible for expanding the military, the General Staff is not idle either, initiating discussions on the division of defense zones for the Austrsia Army.
The scope of Austrsia is simply too vast and is destined to be divided into several military districts for stationing.
Previously, Austrsia’s defense was divided between the nativend and the colonies, with the main force of their army mostly in the nativend and the colonial army and garrisons stationed in the colonies.
Now, the General Staff has decided to adopt a more advanced military district approach. Each military district will have its own headquarters and General Staff, and deploy air,nd, and sea forces to ensure thebat effectiveness of a single military district.
The first to be confirmed is, of course, the nativend military district.
The nativend military district only includes Australia and has 1-5 infantry divisions, 1 cavalry division, 1 artillery division, and 1 tank division, totaling 135,000 personnel.
In addition to the nativend military district, there are numerous overseas military districts, which are:
New Zend Military District: 6-7 Infantry divisions, totaling 32,000 personnel.
Pacific Military District: Includes two Pacific territories, the Solomon Inds, Fiji, and New Caledonia, with the 8th Infantry Division, totaling 16,000 personnel.
New Guinea Military District: Includes the entire New Guinea Colony, with the 9th Infantry Division and 2nd Cavalry Division, totaling 31,000 personnel.
Northern Military District: Includes Swesi Ind, the Royal Territory, and Dili, with the 10th Infantry Division, totaling 16,000 personnel.
Persian Gulf Military District: Includes the entire Persian Gulf Territory, with the 11th and 12th Infantry divisions, 3rd Cavalry Division, and 2nd Artillery Division, totaling 55,000 personnel.
In this way, the whole of Austrsia is divided into six military districts, each with its own headquarters and General Staff, and equipped with air,nd, and sea forces.
Of course, it is not possible for every military district to have arge naval presence. In fact, only the nativend military district, the Pacific Military District, and the Persian Gulf Military District have naval forces, while the others have only small-scale patrol teams, with a limited number of ships and tonnage around a thousand tons.
As for the air force, each military district must have air force deployment, and the number of aircraft in each military district is not small.
Although Arthur does not have arge-scale n to equip aircraft, the existing number of aircraft in Austrsia has exceeded 1,500, and Arthur has naturally equipped them all in the military districts.
Of course, some aircraft are not conveniently exposed, and they are all equipped in the nativend military district.
About 500 remaining first and second-generation military aircraft are stationed in each military district, providing a certain level of air defense and airbat capabilities.
The purposes of the six military districts are different, but some implications can be seen from the allocation of the army, navy, and air force troops.
Firstly, the Pacific Military District, where arge number of navy forces are stationed. There is an abundance of Pacific inds here, and with the need to guard against the United States in the eastern Pacific, having a substantial number of navy forces is essential.
Naturally, there is no need to say more about the Persian Gulf Military District. It is the most crucial petroleum-producing region in Austrsia with incalcble economic value, and Austrsia cannot afford to lose this area.
Thest region with a considerable naval presence is the Native Land Military District.
The Native Land Military District is responsible for the defense of the core areas of Austrsia and also protects the country’s coastline.
For any country, homnd defense is of the highest importance, and it is inevitable that the homnd military district will have thergest number of army, navy, and air force troops.
The Pacific Military District is responsible for the Pacific Ocean, the Persian Gulf Military District for the Indian Ocean, and the Native Land Military District for the surrounding territorial waters. The three military districts can coborate to secure Austrsia’s maritime interests.
Dividing the vast army into different military districts also facilitates the management of each district.
As expected, once each military district is deployed, themanders of the districts are likely to hold the rank of Lieutenant General to ensure they havemand authority over all divisions.

Of course, the rank of the Chief of Staff in the military district will be slightly lower, likely Brigadier General.
In order to distinguish themselves from the military districtmanders, the Minister of Defence and the Chief of Staff should have their ranks raised to the General rank.
This is one of the benefits thate with the military expansion for many officers. As the number of senior officer positions increases, promotions for some people are inevitable.
As the two highest-ranking military figures in Austrsia (second only to Arthur’s nominal Marshal of the Armed Forces), the ranks of the Minister of Defence and the Chief of Staff are naturally to be raised ordingly.
Regarding Arthur’s Marshal of the Armed Forces rank, during special times, it is more than just a title.
As the Commander-in-Chief of Austrsian Armed Forces and the object of loyalty for the military, Arthur has the right to control the overallmand of the military in special moments, and at any time, major ns from both the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff must be approved by Arthur.
This is the power restraint that Arthur, as a monarch, imposes on the Ministry of Defence and the General Staff.
Although Arthur generally does not interfere with the military’s operation, holding this supreme sword of power ensures that situations like Germany’s military supnting the monarch would not happen.
William II’s loss of power was mainly attributed to the fact that Germany’s Junker nobility was toorge and had a long history.
Even without breaking out, the Junker nobility controlled every aspect of Germany and had long be a significant force in the country.
Austrsia naturally does not have such a problem. But in the future, many people will be part of the nobility due to their military achievements, and these new nobles will also be firmly in Arthur’s hands.
Without Arthur, the new nobility of Austrsia could not be recognized by other countries, and hence, the new nobility would have no power.
This ispletely different from Europe’s traditional nobility and is a bnce for Austrsia to avoid the growth and strength of the nobility.
Without Arthur’s support, these new nobles could not grow into a significant ss.
If they want to obtain continuous power, they must rely on Arthur’s rule.
This is also beneficial for Arthur, as having more people’s support will make his royal authority more stable.
With the development of airnes, it can be noticed that airnes have be widespread in Austrsia.
Of course, the widespread use here refers to not in the civilian sector, but in the military and government sectors.
Especially in the military districts where aircraft are bing popr, frequent establishment of airports between military districts has be inevitable.
This is also a good thing for Austrsia, as airnes can indeed speed up themunication between the military forces, and the safety of airnes has also been guaranteed to date. At least the ident rate has been reduced substantially, and idents are almost unlikely to happen.
