After the competition between the two major groups for Romanian oil was completed, Edel also gave up his thoughts on this aspect. Now the European war is the main theme. Although Romania is still mainly developing its economy, it still pays enough attention to this war.
After all, many new military theories and technologies were used in the European war, and Romania also needed first-hand information, so it became urgent to dispatch a military observation team.
Today, General Priest took the list of the two major Romanian groups stationed in Romania and handed it over to the Crown Prince for inspection and approval. Then these heroes of the Romanian army can observe the development of the war at close range and see the actions of the European powers.
Military level. It allows your own army to find out its strengths and weaknesses, correct them and improve its strength.
In the palace, General Pulie handed the list to the crown prince and said, "Your Highness, this is the list prepared by our staff. Your Highness can check it."
Edel took the list and took a quick look at it. There were many talents in the army that he knew. Among them were Lieutenant Colonel Samprot, Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu, and Major Hoffman.
Covering all professional talents of the known military, these are only the officers of the observation group sent by the army. The list of naval officers is also on it, including Lieutenant Colonel Midrafael, Lieutenant Colonel Tiscorcu, and Major Bilk
Waiting is also the candidate he has seen.
Moreover, the head of the military observation team stationed on the Allied side is the new deputy commander of the 3rd Division, Major General Dorex. He was appointed after the former deputy commander of the 3rd Division, Major General Kledov, was promoted to the commander of the 15th Division.
Promoted. He was previously the brigade commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 12th Division, and performed well in the Second Balkan War, so he was promoted to the 3rd Division as deputy division commander.
Being able to serve as the head of the military observation group this time is also related to his experience. He studied in a German military school before and was able to understand the command and operation of the German army. But more importantly, he is only 38 years old this year and is more accepting of new things.
, that’s why he was named as the group leader by General Pu Lie.
The other regiment commander stationed in the Allied Powers was the deputy commander of the 1st Division, Major General Bordop. This major general did not have as much energy as Major General Dolequez, but he was also well-known in the army and was familiar with the French army.
Therefore, he was named by General Pulie to lead the military observation group to deal with matters in France.
It seems that in order to let the elites of the Romanian army experience modern warfare, the Chief of General Staff, General Presan, also took great pains.
Edel was very satisfied with the list submitted by General Puleishan. As for if there were accidental casualties, it was just bad luck. No one can guarantee their own safety in a dangerous place like the battlefield.
"Just follow the list above."
After reading it, Edel handed the list of 93 people to General Puleishan.
As for surprise, he was just surprised that Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu appeared on this list. He had not seen this later dictator for several years, and he did not expect that he was still let in by Chief of General Staff Plesan, and his military rank was also changed.
Mentioned the lieutenant colonel. But considering that this man also had good commanding skills in later history, it makes sense that he still stood out despite not being cared for by the crown prince.
Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu, who didn't know that he was being missed, was chatting with other officers who would be dispatched in the future. This time, General Pule summoned them officers first, and then handed the list to the crown prince for review. This was not the case for Pule.
General Lieshan was inflated, but he was confident that the crown prince would not refute the candidates on the list.
Now these officers are taking advantage of this rare opportunity to get to know each other. After all, everyone is usually very busy. If we don’t take this opportunity to get to know each other better, there won’t be many such opportunities in the future. So everyone is walking towards each other,
Otherwise, Chief of General Staff Pu Lieshan's efforts in arranging them together will be wasted.
However, there are still people who do not understand the painstaking efforts of the Chief of General Staff, such as the Major Hoffman in front of Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu. After getting to know many people and colleagues, Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu inadvertently
When I walked to the door of this room, I saw Major Hoffman still lying on the table dealing with his own problems.
Of course, if Major Hoffman hadn't been talking about new terms such as "wheeled armored vehicles," "tracked armored vehicles," and "how armored vehicles command infantry to coordinate operations," then Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu would have long ago
He turned around and left. Of course he couldn't leave after hearing this. He was well-informed. After being favored by Pu Lieshan, he was able to get a lot of information from the staff, not to mention that he had also worked in the staff department.
Now as a cavalry officer, he was also very interested in the armored experimental battalion formed. Now that he met the main person in charge, of course he couldn't miss the opportunity to discuss it. So he walked into the room and discussed the development of armored vehicles with Major Hoffman.
Application problem. Of course Major Hoffman was dissatisfied with Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu who suddenly walked in, but after talking with the lieutenant colonel, he was inspired by his thinking.
Because Major Hoffman was born as a military school teacher, he strives to have a thorough understanding of many issues. Therefore, he behaves hesitantly when he needs to make choices, showing his true nature as a nerd. In the past few years, he has taken turns in the army and gained this aura.
It has been reduced a lot, but it is not completely gone yet and sometimes it is still obvious.
And because Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu has been serving in the cavalry unit and only worked in the staff department for two years, he has a radiant thinking. Now when two people with different thinking get along, they can learn from each other's mouths.
They got different ideas, so now the two of them quickly developed from not knowing each other to having a good conversation. Now Major Hoffman is asking him about the model of the armored vehicle opposite him.
"Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu, which of these two armored vehicles do you think is in line with current development?"
"I think it depends on how you use it. For example, you said that wheeled armored vehicles can only travel on roads because they run fast. I think you have a good reference object, which is armored trains, which can only travel on railways.
The slow speed of tracked armored vehicles is just like the heavy cavalry that was eliminated before. Although it is slow, it still has armor that cannot be penetrated by the enemy, so you can consider two aspects."
When faced with Hoffman's problem, Antonescu could only find comparisons from things he knew. Fortunately, he did a good job.
Hoffman was very inspired by Antonescu's words. He happily told this officer whom he had just met. "It seems that what we need is a tracked armored vehicle so that we can conquer the enemy's defense line. But now the tracked armored vehicles
The vehicle speed is not fast.”
Antonescu asked curiously. "How fast can the tracked armored vehicle you mentioned now run?"
Faced with the inquiry of this new acquaintance, Lieutenant Colonel, Hoffman also gave the answer. "Now it can only run 15 or 16 kilometers per hour, and there are quite a lot of faults. I asked the people in the Volkswagen Design Department to continue to improve, at least
The failure rate must be reduced.”
When Antonescu was about to continue questioning, he suddenly heard a broadcast. "Attention, all officers participating in the military observation group must gather in the hall."
The two people quickly dropped the topic and left the room, and followed the officers who came out to gather in the hall. When they arrived in the hall, they lined up according to their height. Among them, the army officers wearing dark green uniforms lined up in four rows, while the army officers wearing sky blue military uniforms lined up in four rows.
The naval officers lined up in two rows. Since they were about the same height, they lined up together.
After lining up, the two Major Generals Dolequez and Boldorp, who were in charge of leading the team, walked up to them.
"The officers whose names I have read out now will go with me to the Allied front lines as military observers, and the other officers will go to the Allied Powers with General Boldorp."
After Major General Dorex finished speaking, he suddenly asked loudly, "Did you hear everything clearly?"
The straight-laced officers standing in front of them shouted in unison, "It's clear."
Major General Dolequez nodded with satisfaction and began to read his name. "Colonel Bosque."
"arrive"
"Colonel Wedel."
"arrive"
"Lieutenant Colonel Samplot."
"arrive"
Seeing Major General Dolequez reading the name, Antonescu whispered to Hoffman, "It's best if we can be divided together."
Hoffman felt that this lieutenant colonel whom he had just met was pretty good, so he responded in a low voice, "I hope so."
At this time, Major General Dolequez said loudly, "Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu."
Antonescu stood up straight and replied, "Arrived"
After Major General Dorex read the entire list, there was still no Major Hoffman's name. It seemed that their wish was in vain. In fact, this list can be seen that this time the officers are going to the outstanding parts of their country.
, for example, Lieutenant Colonel Antonescu is a cavalry officer, and he will be assigned to the Eastern Front of Germany. And Major Hoffman, an armored vehicle officer, will be assigned to the British and French side where there are more armored vehicles.
Major General Dorex said loudly after reading. "You still have two days, and then you will gather here. Major General Boldorp and I will take you to the battlefield respectively. Don't forget to prepare a suicide note, even if it is a military
Observers are also at risk."
After finishing speaking, Major General Dolekes shouted loudly, "Disband."
So the officers who were gathered together dispersed. Now they will rush to the front line in two days. Although they are not fighting, every officer's heart is heavy.
