Chapter 493 Splitting the Royal Security Intelligence Agency
Arthur didn't care how the British Empire and Italy were scrambling to win over Hungary. After all, Hungary was too far away from Australasia. It didn't matter to Arthur who controlled it, as long as it wasn't controlled by Soviet Russia.
The split of the royal consortium made Arthur realize a problem, that is, not everything is the best if it is the biggest.
If the royal consortium is too big, it is easy to make the people dissatisfied, then the Royal Security Intelligence Bureau is too big, which is not a good thing for the monarch.
At any time, the monarch must understand the importance of checks and balances.
No matter how big the Royal Security Intelligence Bureau is, as long as it is the only intelligence agency in Australasia, there will be various possibilities and various problems.
After careful consideration, Arthur decided to split the Royal Security Intelligence Bureau and set up three intelligence departments with different responsibilities.
The first is the department responsible for military intelligence and foreign espionage. The importance of the foreign intelligence department to a country is self-evident, so it also inherited the original Royal Security Intelligence Bureau. More intelligence personnel.
The foreign intelligence department was named the Australasian Military Intelligence Bureau, referred to as the Military Intelligence Bureau, and the person in charge was Gary Barrodale.
The intelligence agency responsible for monitoring officials and the public internally and for the country was named the National Intelligence Agency, and its director was David Hildyard.
The original Royal Security Intelligence Agency was also retained. The Royal Security Intelligence Agency had the largest scope, involving both internal and external intelligence work, including the protection and assassination of key personnel.
The director of the Royal Security Intelligence Agency is still Batty. After all, Batty is also a veteran of Australasian intelligence work and the real helmsman of the Royal Security Intelligence Agency.
Both the Military Intelligence Agency and the National Intelligence Agency, like the Royal Security Intelligence Agency, directly obey Arthur's orders.
But at the same time, the Military Intelligence Agency is managed by the Ministry of Defense, and the National Intelligence Agency is managed by the Cabinet Government. Generally speaking, the Ministry of Defense and the Cabinet Government also have the privilege of inquiring about intelligence.
Any intelligence of the Royal Security Intelligence Agency can only be reviewed by Arthur, which is also the biggest difference between the Royal Security Intelligence Agency and the other two intelligence agencies.
Director Batty has no reason for the decision to split the Royal Security Intelligence Service. Although this will reduce the power of Director Batty a lot, he also understands who gave him the power. Not only does he not have any complaints, but he also performs his tasks wholeheartedly.
The two new directors are the former subordinates of Director Batty. It is obvious that they have been well educated by Director Batty. They are not proud or complacent when facing promotions, and they are very respectful to Director Batty.
The first task of the Military Intelligence Bureau after its establishment is to plant a large number of spies in the Philippines to facilitate the next move of Australasia in the Philippines.
It can be seen from the map that the Philippines occupied by the United States is a nail inserted into Southeast Asia for Australasia.
Fortunately, when missiles are born in the future, the United States only needs to deploy medium- and short-range missiles in the Philippines to easily threaten the mainland of Australasia.
This potential threat must be removed. What's more, the United States has now formed a competitive state with Australasia.
The Pacific hegemony that the United States wants to seek will inevitably conflict with Australasia, which occupies half of the Pacific Ocean.
As the saying goes, there can be no two tigers in one mountain, and the Pacific Ocean can definitely not accommodate two hegemonic countries.
At present, the Dutch East Indies has not posed any threat to Australasia. The three islands under the Dutch East Indies can also become the native enclosure of Australasia.
When the natives are needed, tens of millions of natives can be obtained from these three islands. When the natives are not needed, all the natives can be driven to these three islands.
In the future, these three islands can even be manipulated to be independent and become a three-legged country.
As the closest power to these three countries, Australasia can naturally easily control these three countries and turn them into a dumping ground for Australasia's goods.
As for the northern end, the Straits Settlements currently controlled by the British Empire are impossible to cede or resell to Australasia.
After all, the three ports of the Straits Settlements control the entire Strait of Malacca, which is equivalent to controlling the entire East Asian interest transportation chain. The British Empire would not give up voluntarily before it completely declined.
If you want to obtain the Straits Settlements, you have to wait until World War II breaks out and the British Empire can't resist the German attack.
And the Southeast Asian Peninsula, which is further north of the Straits Settlements, is never within Arthur's consideration.
There is no way, this place is too close to the river crab god, and the slightest movement will lead to the subversion of the whole world, which is what Arthur doesn't want to see.
There are only so many lands adjacent to Australasia, which is why the Military Intelligence Agency wants to make the Philippines the first stop, because the Philippines is too annoying.
At least you have to provoke the natives of the Philippines and give the Americans some eye drops.
In fact, you can see from the map that the territory of Australasia is already perfect.
With the land of Australia, New Guinea and New Zealand, it has the guarantee of becoming a powerful country.
Coupled with the oil from the Persian Gulf territories, Australasia no longer has any deficiencies in resources. Having completed the North-to-South Water Diversion Project, Australasia is destined to become a superpower.
But for Australasia at present, how to reasonably develop the existing land is a question worthy of deep thought and long-term planning.
Needless to say, Australia and New Zealand are also the two most developed regions in Australasia.
Australia is the real core of the country, and New Zealand is an excellent livestock area and homeland.
Except for these two homeland areas, all other lands are overseas territories or colonies.
Although the government has a strong control over these overseas territories and colonies, colonies are colonies after all, and no one can guarantee whether accidents will happen.
Colonial localization is the only choice for Australasia and a good way to strengthen the rule over these colonies.
Among them, all lands in Southeast Asia need to be localized. After all, these lands are not far from the mainland of Australasia, and localization will not increase too much administrative burden.
Only after localization can all these lands be in hand. After all, the inherent territory cannot be divided by any country.
The first colony to be localized, or the colony to be developed, is naturally the colony of New Guinea.
As the second largest island in the world, the development potential of the colony of New Guinea is still very huge.
Moreover, New Guinea also has water resources that are in short supply in Australasia, which means that New Guinea is no less important in Australasia than New Zealand.
The first step in the localization of the colony is naturally to send a large number of immigrants to the New Guinea colony.
Fortunately, after a long period of development, the original Australian New Guinea colony still has a large number of Australasians.
German New Guinea has tens of thousands of Germans, and Dutch New Guinea also has thousands of Dutch.
After integrating these populations, the number of Australasians in New Guinea has barely exceeded 400,000.
Although it is still far from the goal of completely localizing New Guinea, it is much better than the situation more than ten years ago.
In addition, most of the natives on the island of New Guinea have been completely driven away, and the remaining few natives are hiding in the mountains, just like savages, and there are not many of them, so naturally there is no need to worry about them.
This also means that New Guinea Island will be the inherent territory of Australasia from now on, after all, all the residents on the island are Australasia.
As an important water source for Australasia in the future, New Guinea is destined not to have too large a scale of heavy industry.
After all, heavy industry has a huge impact on the environment. The water resources transported to Australasia are not only used for industry, but also for agricultural irrigation and drinking.
Such a large number of uses have harsh requirements for water resources, which means that New Guinea must maintain a relatively good ecological environment in order to contribute sufficient and reliable water resources to Australasia.
Such a large-scale water diversion project, not to mention the manpower and material resources required for the construction project, has a huge impact on the area where water resources are supplied.
This is equivalent to a region serving the entire country and making contributions to the entire country.
In order to check the progress of New Guinea's construction, Arthur decided to visit New Guinea and attend the opening ceremony of the first large language school in New Guinea.
Speaking of language schools, they are already very common in Australasia, and the enrollment is almost full every year.
Language schools have only one mission in Australasia, which is to teach English to people who do not know English, so that they can communicate proficiently in English.
As an immigrant country, Australasia has a wide variety of ethnic groups. Apart from anything else, a unified language is very necessary.
After this long period of deployment, a considerable number of Russian immigrants have mastered English, and the number is still increasing at a rate of hundreds of thousands per year.
These immigrants are also more welcoming to learning English. After all, only after they have mastered English proficiently can they get the most basic minimum wage.
Whether or not to speak English is completely different in Australasia, which also prompts more immigrants to learn English.
Unifying the language is only Arthur's first step. The three main ethnic groups in Australasia are British, Russian and German.
For the stability of Australasia, it is necessary to merge these three ethnic groups into a unified Australasia nation.
After unifying the language, the next most important step is to unify the lifestyle of all people.
The differences between the various ethnic groups can also be distinguished from the lifestyle. After all, the customs of the British and Russians are completely different. One believes in British Protestantism and the other believes in Orthodox Christianity.
The most important step to change their lifestyle is to change their religion. Under Arthur's instruction, Archbishop Steed spread Australasian Protestantism throughout Australasia and tried to unify the religion of Australasia.
When these immigrants use the same language and have a common lifestyle, they will naturally become a new nation.
In addition to working hard on language and religion, Arthur's actions have never stopped in terms of cultural influence.
In addition to various patriotic movies, Australasia is also full of various entertainment movies, educational movies and dramas to enrich the entertainment life of Australasia people.
These entertainment movies are also spreading crazily to Europe and other regions, exerting Australasia's influence on the world in terms of cultural industry.
In Europe and the United States, the three major film studios in Australasia have already gained considerable fame, which also means that the first step of Australasia's cultural influence has been successful.
In terms of cultural industry, Australasia's cultural industry is definitely world-class. With the help of the royal family, the three major film studios have developed very rapidly.
Various private film studios have also been influenced by these three major film studios to shoot various movies and penetrate into other countries.
Arthur has various ideas about entertainment movies from time to time, which is something that people today have never thought of, and it also makes Australasia's entertainment movies more popular worldwide.
Arthur occasionally watches movies. Although it is not as shocking as the 3D and 4D movies of later generations, it can be regarded as an immersive experience of the development history of movies.
Not to mention, people in every era have different ideas. Now the simple sound movies do not look so attractive, but if you watch them carefully, some plots are still very good.
The actors participating in the movie are also playing their roles seriously. There is no such thing as a stand-in. They all shoot their roles meticulously under the scorching sun or severe winter.
This is also the reason why movies of this era are better than those of later generations. The actors are paid very little, and the cost of the movie is basically spent on editing the script, setting the scene and inserting the story.
In order to promote the tourist attractions in Australasia, Australasia has shot many movies about tourism, and has successfully brought many attractions in Australasia to the fore.
Arthur developed a scenic area at the original location of the Gold Coast and named it the Gold Coast in accordance with history.
In fact, only this name is suitable for this scenery, because the scenery of the Gold Coast makes Arthur, who went there for the first time, a little obsessed.
Especially when the sun is about to set, the sunset decorates the entire beach into gold. The beach is like a pile of gold powder, shining with golden colors under the afterglow of the sunset.
The blue and transparent sea water and tall palm trees, coupled with the soft beach that shines like gold, is simply a tourist destination in everyone's mind, making anyone involuntarily indulge in it, fall in love with this sea and this beach.
After the movie Gold Coast became popular, Gold Coast became one of the most popular attractions in Australasia. When the climate is comfortable, it always welcomes countless tourists.
The tourists include not only Europeans and Americans who come from abroad, but also Australasia.
Many smart people have opened many hotels and shops near this area, and have made a small profit while the attraction is popular.
But the real big winner is the Queensland government. The Queensland government has decided to build large-scale amusement parks and tourist facilities on the Gold Coast, making this area the most beautiful place in the world, the golden beach on the sea.
