After inspecting the armored experimental camp in Constanta, Admiral Edel and Prey Mountain will come to Klerahi, the nearest to here. The Danube, which has nurtured the Romanians, is divided into two tributaries here. Gyurjeni, located 85 kilometers downstream, joins once again. After irrigating numerous Romanian farmland and providing people with drinking water, it irrigated it into the Black Sea.

As last year, six divisions were formed at one time, one of which was the 21st Infantry Division training here. In a small town called Rosezi near Klerahi, the division headquarters of the 21st Infantry Division was stationed here. Today, the division commander Major General Andokos took the deputy division commander and the chief of staff to accompany Edel and the chief of the general staff to inspect the troops under him.

Major General Andokos was previously the deputy commander of the Fifth Division. After failing to compete for the commander of the Fifteenth Division, he just caught up with the expansion of the army. In the face of the new organization of the six divisions, some of his shortcomings became less obvious at once, so this time it was logical to be the coveted division commander.

Only in the face of expanding the establishment of six divisions in just one year, the Romanian military industry couldn't be too busy. Even if the army’s inventory is taken out, it can only be made up of light weapons. This is the result of Romania’s financial abundance after the outbreak of the European War. Therefore, the 21st Infantry Division currently has 4 vacancies for 75 field artillery and 6 105 howitzers, all of which are in overtime production in the arsenal.

In fact, this problem is not only caused by the 21st Division. The six newly compiled divisions have more or less this result. Only the 16 divisions compiled and trained before the war (14 divisions reorganized and 2 divisions compiled and trained in 13 years) were fully staffed. The six divisions formed last year are all in short supply. Therefore, this year’s recruitment work requires more attention from the War Department’s Admiral Courtois.

Yes, Admiral Courtois is still serving as Secretary of the Army. After Edel succeeded to the throne, many "civil politicians" are predicting when Admiral Courtois, the confidant of the old king, will retire. Only the confidant around Edel knew that except that Admiral Courtois really couldn't bear the work, there was nothing else possible.

Because the new king does not intend to replace him, Edel now needs Admiral Courtois to stand in front of the stage, win over his father's previous forces in the army, and wait until he is fully integrated into his own forces before considering it. So Admiral Courtois, after the new king of the Edels, started from a fresh start to the work of the War Department.

"Major General Andokos, your soldiers are well trained."

Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Edel complimented Major General Andokos beside him. What Edel is watching is the 21st division company platoon-level infantry attack drill. Although the officers and soldiers are not particularly proficient, they still look good. As long as they continue to practice, this will be another strong force of the Romanian army. This is also because Edel has inspected more, and he has his own understanding of the results of the drills of the officers and soldiers. He wouldn't dare to say that if he had just started the change, it would be a big joke if he said it wrong.

In the face of Edel's praise, Major General Andoks smiled, but he still spoke modestly. "This is all the officers and soldiers' own efforts. We just need to issue training tasks."

It was not the first day that Major General Andokos faced Edel. He had met several times when Edel was the crown prince, and of course he knew what to say.

Facing Major General Andokos's modest words, Admiral Preeshan added for Edel. "Your Majesty is right. It is indeed a very good practice. Andokos, don't be humble. It's mainly according to what you said. This is because the soldier's movements will be out of shape. It must be the result of your hard work."

"Of course" Prieshan handed over the telescope in his hand to a staff officer behind him, and continued. "This is to affirm your work, and also hope that the 21st Division can complete the training work as soon as possible, so that you can be the first to complete the reorganization of the newly formed unit, so that you can get upright as soon as possible."

As the chief of the general staff, Admiral Preeshan still has a hand in encouragement. He released the carrot of righting to let several chief officers of the 21st Division continue their efforts. It needs to be said here that the division chief officers of the six divisions that are expanded this time are all just agents. As for the deletion of the word "agent", the reorganization must be completed. So now the six newly expanded division chiefs are training their subordinates desperately, and no one wants to continue to hold the title of agent. This is not only about face, but more importantly about one's position in the Romanian army. You must know that in the army, they only recognize ability. If they are surpassed by others, then any of their six new division commanders will be greatly reduced in the army.

Faced with the carrot of Prey Mountain, the three chief officers of the 21st Division were not immune to temptation. In the end, Major General Andokos spoke gratefully. "Thank you for the encouragement of the Chief of Staff. We will definitely finish the reorganization before other divisions."

As a major general, Andokos has been in the army for many years, knowing that he must not persuade him~lightnovelpub.net~ You must let the king and the chief of staff see your own strong side. This is the iron-blooded perseverance of the army is the best in the army. Quality.

Edel and Preeshan were very satisfied with Major General Andoks's answer, and both felt that Major General Andoks was responsible for doing things. Of course, if he couldn't finish what he said, he would know the result clearly. If the promises made in the army need to be fulfilled, otherwise the best result is that there is basically no room for further improvement.

After visiting the company platoon training of the 21st Division, Edel and Preeshan went on to inspect the artillery training, communication drills, and field medical drills. Especially during the field medical exercises, Edel also specially expressed condolences to those medical soldiers who were willing to give up their high salaries to become military doctors in the army, and took photos with them.

Edel and Preeshan spent a total of two days in the 21st Division, carefully observing the conditions of the 21st Division, and basically understanding the specific conditions of this division. In the evening of the next day, Edel and Mount Pree will drive overnight to the next location, which is located in Dobrid, which belongs to Romania in the territory of the former Bulgaria, where there is the newly compiled Romanian 20th Division.

In most of the past half month, Edel took the Chief of Staff Prieshan to visit the newly organized divisional units in Romania. The focus is on the troops formed during the large expansion, and they also found many problems during the inspection. Fortunately, there were no major problems, only minor problems, which made the inspecting Edel and Preeshan very satisfied. No one wanted to spend a lot of money to build a troop, but it was discovered that it looked like a fake.

In fact, for the king's eager inspection of these troops, other high-ranking officers were a little confused, except for the Chief of Staff Preeshan. Because Edel gave him the bottom line and required him to complete the reorganization of the large-scale expansion of the army within two years, Preeshan also ignored other things and did his best to complete the expansion of the army.
