After discussing with ambassadors Winston and Cret, Arthur very generously decided to provide 200,000 reinforcements to France within three months, and in the following wars, transport at least 200,000 combat troops to Europe each year to alleviate the pressure on the British and French forces.
This also means that Australasia will send at least millions of expeditionary troops in this war, and the contribution cannot be underestimated, at least as Arthur sees it.
As compensation for Australasia's great contribution, it will have priority in selecting some of Germany's industrial equipment, technology, and scientific achievements.
This is essential for making up for some of Australasia's industrial foundations; using Germany's achievements from the past few decades can directly raise Australasia's foundation.
To show his sincerity, after the two representatives left, Arthur called Defence Secretary Raul and ordered the Ministry of Defense to immediately start drafting new native soldiers. Within two months, they will train at least 200,000 combat troops and send them to the European battlefield.
Of course, going to the battlefield is also a way to train soldiers. So, for these native soldiers, there is no need for overly strict training. They just need to be proficient in using weapons and able to follow the commander's orders.
The European battlefield needs cannon fodder, not elite soldiers. Even elite soldiers, facing a protracted war of attrition, cannot help but suffer huge casualties.
In this case, sufficient cannon fodder becomes increasingly important. The 200,000 native troops from Australasia serve to replace the British and French forces in dying, using human lives to fill the gaps in the Allies' fighting strength.
This also means that, including these 200,000 native troops, all the native forces dispatched by Australasia will face very serious casualties.
However, Arthur is not distressed. For Australasia, millions of native casualties mean nothing; on the contrary, they are beneficial to the development of the nation.
Running out of natives in Australasia is a good thing – at least it can save the government's energy and prevent them from wasting time in relocating these natives.
As for the placement of dead and injured natives, Arthur generously stated that the British and French can handle it themselves.
Those who are not seriously injured can be sent back to the battlefield after healing, and the dead can be buried on the spot, with a large pit being enough for tens of thousands of people.
Of course, since they made contributions to the Australasian government, Arthur will fulfill his promise to the families of the deceased natives: he will give them freedom.
All family members of the deceased natives will receive a sum of money sufficient for them to move to other regions, and under the escort of Australasian official fleets, they will head to Southeast Asia or Africa.
As for obtaining Australasian citizenship, don't even think about it. Although Asians are accepted, Arthur has no intention of accepting black people.
Of course, this is not racial discrimination but Arthur's simple dislike of chocolate.
After all, the few East Asian immigrants in Australasia are doing well – isn't this proof that Arthur treats every race equally?
As for chocolate, sorry, that is a specialty of African gorillas. Australasia has no habit of eating monkey brains and does not welcome gorillas.
In addition to training native troops, the Royal financial group set up a medical group, where Arthur received very interesting news.
Before World War I, he established the medical group responsible for all medical and pharmaceutical research, production, and talent cultivation.
This news comes from the medical group's biological research lab, an area that Arthur invested heavily in.
