Rise of Australia

Chapter 157

The response of this naval parade in Australia was good, and even the New Zealanders paid a little attention to it.

An obvious difference can be felt after the naval parade, that is, more people gather around the gate of the government affairs building every day, and many of them want to sign up to join the army.

But it is a pity that Australia's current conscription system does not allow them to participate in conscription now. After the completion of the last expansion, the next conscription time will have to wait until the new military expansion.

Seeing that the goal of joining the army could not be achieved, these people set their goal of entering the police force.

After more than two years of expansion and development, Australia's police force has become very advanced, including a strict police training school and a probationary system before officially becoming an Australian police officer.

Of course, under the strict training system, the power of the Australian police is also very large.

As the most important weapon of the Ministry of Public Security to maintain law and order, the Australian police are not only equipped with a unified Australian self-produced As-1898 semi-automatic pistol, but also have the right to mobilize some heavy weapons.

The As-1898 semi-automatic pistol, like other semi-automatic pistols of this era, adopted and borrowed from the principle of automation of the Maxim heavy machine gun, making the pistol a preliminary semi-automatic weapon.

Of course, there is no reference to the principle of the Bochard C1890 automatic pistol born in 93.

Strictly speaking, Australia's As-1898 semi-automatic pistol is an improved version of Bochard's c93 automatic pistol, and its performance has also been greatly improved.

The As-1898 semi-automatic pistol has a length of 270 mm and a total weight of [-] kg.

This kind of pistol adopts the method of magazine bow and bullet, with a capacity of eight rounds. The bullet is nickel-plated and has a strong penetrating ability.

The effective range of this kind of pistol has reached 500 meters. Although it is not as good as the effective range of the current rifle, which is hundreds of thousands of meters, it is enough in terms of practical effect.

As the effective distance gets farther and farther away, soldiers become more and more blurred to distant enemies without using a magnification lens.

In this case, the current effective range of the rifle over a thousand meters is completely a waste, which is why countries around the world began to develop rifles with an effective range of about 400 meters after World War I.

With the growth of Australia's population, security is also a very serious problem.

Although the police department has undergone more than two years of evolution, large and small police stations have also been built in major cities, and hundreds of excellent police officers have also been trained.

But this is only a drop in the bucket for Guangmao's land area in Australia. Judging from Australia's current population and urban distribution, at least thousands of police officers are needed to better maintain Australia's law and order.

Although there was basically no resistance to the recruitment of police officers before, there were actually not many who were willing to become police officers.

The salary of the police is not as generous as that of the soldiers, and it can only be regarded as upper middle compared to Australia's income level.

Although it exceeds the per capita income, it only exceeds the per capita income.Australia's per capita annual income is twelve pounds and six shillings, while the per capita income of Australian police is only thirteen pounds and two shillings.

Compared with these police officers, the Australian Defense Force's income of [-] pounds and [-] shillings and the guards' income of [-] pounds and [-] shillings are a bit too generous, which is why people are more willing to go to the army.

(British currency conversion: one pound is equal to twenty shillings, and one shilling is equal to twelve pence.)
Because these people failed to join the army, they could only turn their attention to entering the police force.This also played a very good role in the expansion of the police, allowing the slow-expanding police department to enter a period of rapid development.

Of course, although this is a good thing for the police department, it does not mean that the security department will relax the training of the police.

On the contrary, as more and more people sign up for police election, the selection and training of police officers has become more and more strict, and the training items and time have even far exceeded before.

The upsurge of joining the army after the end of National Day lasted for more than half a month, which also caused the public security department to receive nearly [-] applications for joining the police department during this half month.

After layers of selection by the public security department, 800 people were finally screened and became real reserve policemen.

These 800 people are all excellent young people who have passed the screening of background, physique, education level, ideological performance and previous experience, etc., and their physical fitness and cultural thinking are all qualified.

They need to go through half a year of training before they can grow into a real Australian policeman.

Of course, it's not over yet.After that, they still need to go through a three-month probationary period. After confirming that they can master what they have learned before without any problems, they can become real Australian police officers with a staff and distribute guns.

Yes, although there is no government ban on guns, Australia's control over firearms has become increasingly strict, and the sale of guns to the private sector is basically not allowed.

Although many Australian ranchers and hunters still own guns, they also need to register with the Australian government, and every time they replenish ammunition, they need to explain the use of the previous ammunition.

Although Arthur really wants to promote the development of Australia's gun ban, he actually understands that this cannot be achieved in a short period of time.

Australia is sparsely populated, and wild animals and plants are also extremely rampant.Among them are many animals that can threaten personal safety, such as animals carrying highly poisonous animals and carnivorous animals.

Under such circumstances, letting those farmers and ranchers who are relatively far away from the city and some people who like to go hunting in the deep mountains carry guns is the best way to ensure their safety.

If these people are deprived of the right to bear guns, then there is a good chance they will be dissatisfied.

However, in major cities in Australia, the implementation of the gun ban is still very smooth.At least you can't carry guns when you enter the city. You can deposit them in various municipal governments and police stations, and pick them up when you leave the city.

During this period, they only need to pay a small maintenance fee to the government or the police station, and they can maintain the stored guns to ensure that they will not rust and become unusable due to long-term storage.

The ban on guns between cities has effectively eliminated all kinds of gun fights. In the city, no one will be the opponent of the police who legally own pistols. Great confidence and ability.
