But due to the various concentration camp massacres following Germany’s occupation of Poland, Polish casualties suddenly increased by millions.
Currently, Poland’s casualties rank ahead of France and behind only Russia, the Island Nation, and Germany.
In this respect, Poland’s situation is incomparable to that of Austria. As another nation fully occupied by Germany, most of Austria’s population has been recognized by the German government, and the Czech Region is already Germany’s second most important industrial strongpoint, naturally making massacres there unlikely.
Taking into account the military personnel numbers and casualty figures of the various nations, the ones who truly suffered terrible losses are only the fully occupied countries of Poland and Austria.
Even Russia, with the highest number of casualties, did not suffer a crippling blow in the war, but rather a flesh wound, so to speak.
This clearly does not align with Arthur’s expectations, nor does it serve the strategic purposes of Australasia in this war.
This also means that the war cannot end just yet.
The good news is that after ending its war with the Island Nation, Australasia can mobilize a military force exceeding 2 million, which can play a vital role in the European theaters of war.
It can be said that the end of the war is now entirely up to Australasia. As long as Arthur wishes the war to continue, it will progress under the current conditions.
But if Arthur wishes to quickly end the war, using the deployed forces exceeding 2 million and the threat of nuclear weapons could allow Australasia to end the war swiftly in its favor.
Up till now, Australasia’s role in this war has become increasingly significant, and its position among the Britain-France-Australia Three Nations has gradually become more evident.
Britain and France can no longer ignore Australasia’s stance and are even willing to make certain sacrifices to ensure that Australasia remains aligned with them.
On September 15, 1937, Britain, France, and Australia held secret talks in London to discuss collaboration on anti-espionage and anti-infiltration operations among the nations.
The Australasian Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Mark, proposed during the meeting, “Australasia and Britain and France, being powerhouses of western tradition in science, technology, and industry, should enhance protection of intelligence related to technology and industry.”
Ambassador Mark stated, “The Three Countries should collaborate on certain anti-infiltration and anti-espionage efforts to prevent external powers from penetrating the intelligence operations of the three nations and stealing technological data and industrial design information.”
Although no specific adversaries were named in the meeting, it was clear to all three Britain-France-Australia nations that the target of the anti-infiltration efforts was the Russia Country.
This actually aligns with British interests. Russia was already a potential superpower; allowing them access to a wealth of technological information and industrial designs, even some industrial equipment and production lines, would lead to unimaginable consequences.
A nation dense with population, vast in land, and rich in mineral resources and petroleum is already formidable; if they were to catch up in industry and certain military technologies, then Britain and France could not hope to cope with such a country.
The native sizes of Britain and France are small, which caps their potential. The current progress of France shows that it’s unlikely to continue its march toward world domination.
The reason Britain remains a world superpower is that India and other vast colonies are of utmost importance. Without India’s independence, Britain could not maintain its superpower status.
This concern about their own position led Britain and France to quickly agree to the anti-espionage and anti-infiltration treaty.

This treaty stipulates that the Three Countries share intelligence on anti-espionage and anti-infiltration efforts and jointly ensure that advanced military and industrial technologies are not compromised or stolen by the enemy.
Why sign such a treaty?
Although Arthur does not recall the specifics, he vaguely remembers that historically Russia had achieved great success in infiltration, securing many advanced technologies and information from the British.
Looking at current world developments, Russia might be the greatest enemy for Australasia after the war.
For Arthur, it is natural to want to cut off the enemy’s rapid growth in military and industrial technology as much as possible.
Luckily, the years of Arthur’s emphasis on intelligence work have not been fruitless. The Three Major Intelligence Agencies, watching over and collaborating with each other, can ensure that enemy spies have a hard time infiltrating.
Because even if one intelligence department is breached, there are two others to keep it in check. Unless the enemy can penetrate all three intelligence agencies at the same time, it would be very difficult for them to obtain information on advanced weapons and technology from Australasia.
To simultaneously infiltrate three intelligence agencies is unimaginably difficult, and so far, no nation has been able to achieve that.
Firstly, there’s the National Security Intelligence Agency, which prevents internal infiltration by enemy spies, directly controlling all native populations, including all immigrants and tourists who enter the country.
And even if one eludes the oversight of the National Security Intelligence Agency, most important factories and enterprises are under the surveillance of the Royal Security Intelligence Agency personnel.
The difficulty of infiltrating various institutions and enterprises under the surveillance of both major intelligence agencies to acquire significant data and intelligence is imaginable.
