The Rise of Australasia

For a light weapons expert like Browning, Arthur naturally attached great importance and trust.

As long as Browning used all the funds for weapons research and developmt, what would it matter if there was no upper limit on the funds?

After all, the research and developmt of weapons wouldn't cost hundreds of thousands of Australian dollars a year. If Australasia could obtain an extremely advanced light weapon, it would be much more valuable than those few hundred thousand Aussie dollars.

It should be noted that light weapons are not limited to handguns and submachine guns. Rifles, light machine guns, and heavy machine guns are all classified as light weapons.

If Browning put it to good use, Australasia's light weapons improvemt and research and developmt for the next twty years would not be a problem. They would always be at the forefront of the world in military industry.

It should be noted that heavy machine guns currtly installed on aircraft and tanks are also an esstial source of firepower.

This also represts the importance of machine gun research for heavy weapons such as aircraft and tanks. After all, the performance of the mounted machine guns determines the combat capabilities of tanks and aircraft, and it is one of the most effective means of killing.

Although Browning had a half-month vacation, Arthur still gave him a few tasks, considering Browning's eagerness to work.

Of course, these tasks only required making advanced preparations. Browning would not start the formal research and developmt of weapons until after the National Day holiday.

There are many talts in Australasia's military industry but not many with a big historical name like Browning.

As the saying goes, "the able work harder." Since Browning could make such a big name in history, it meant that his ability must not be low.

As the chief expert of light weapons in the Royal Military Factory, Arthur handed over the research and developmt tasks of submachine guns, handguns, light and heavy machine guns to Browning, letting him quickly familiarize himself and master the now-existing technologies of these three types of weapons used in Royal Military Factory, and make improvemts according to his abilities.

Rifles were not among them for the momt, not because Browning did not have knowledge in this area, but because the Gew-98 Rifle and Lee-Enfield Rifle that Australasia had at prest were tirely sufficit. At least for the next two or three decades, these two weapons performed very well, and there were no plans to design new weapons.

Of course, if Browning could further improve these two weapons, Arthur would not have any reason to refuse.

After talking happily with Browning for several hours, Arthur handed him a cheque for 0,000 Australian dollars, allowing him to find a proper residce and bring his family to Australasia. This delightful conversation finally came to an d.

0,000 Australian dollars is about 50,000 pounds. Ev for Browning who had be the chief firearms designer at the Belgian National Military Factory, this amount was a fortune.

It should be noted that because Belgium's National Military Factory's business wasn't too good, ev Browning's annual salary as a chief expert would not exceed 000 pounds.

This 0,000 Australian dollars cheque was equivalt to Browning's 5 years of Belgian salary, which showed Arthur's sincerity.

With this 0,000 Australian dollars, one can purchase an excellt property or a standalone villa in any city in Australasia, or ev buy outright some small and medium-sized businesses in Australasia and become a capitalist.

Browning was very surprised and grateful for Arthur's gerosity. As the King of Australasia, Arthur has giv Browning the highest level of respect and atttion.

This also sparked the fighting spirit in Browning, who came because of the promise of ample research and developmt funding.

He was determined to complete the task assigned by His Majesty Arthur, which is at the very least to improve and upgrade the weapons of Australasia.

An expert like Browning could break off cooperation with a company on a whim because they didn't appreciate his weapon designs, and would instead go to Belgium. Similarly, he would be determined to work harder to complete Arthur's task because of Arthur's trust in him.

Time passed quickly, and in just a few days, January th arrived - Australasia's National Day.

This year's National Day was rather grand. Although there was no military parade, there were plty of other activities, along with rumors that Arthur and the royal family would be participating, which attracted many people.

More importantly, it was the first public appearance for Arthur's childr, Prince William and Princess Anna Miller, which also attracted many domestic media outlets.

Ev many European newspapers came specifically for the chance to report on Arthur and the royal family members.

In Australasia and some European countries, people have a very positive impression of Arthur.

Especially in major powers like Britain and Russia Nation, Prince William and Princess Anna Miller have blood ties to the British Royal Family and the Russian Royal House.

If calculated ev further, Arthur had the right to inherit the British throne, albeit in a very remote position.

As Arthur's childr, Prince William and Princess Anna Miller naturally had the right to inherit the British throne.

Although inheriting the British throne was theoretically impossible, having the right to inherit it represted their closess to the British Royal Family.

After all, only those within the direct line of desct of three gerations could have the right to inherit the British throne.
