In the Royal Palace of Bucharest, Romania, ever since Edel decided to speculate, he has paid more attention to the statements of Russia and Serbia.
The guards in the palace all knew that the Crown Prince was in a bad mood and easily irritable, so everyone was cautious in doing things for fear of being reprimanded. Only the captain of the guard, Carlust, was still so calm and indifferent. On the sixth day of the Romanian military exercise, the captain of the guard hurriedly
He walked down the aisle. People who knew him well knew that something big must have happened to make the captain of the guard, who showed a calm and indifferent face, feel so anxious.
"Your Highness, this is Russia's latest statement." Captain Karust told the anxiously waiting Edel after walking quickly into the Crown Prince's office.
"Show it to me." Edel walked towards him, took the message from the captain of the guard and read it.
After carefully reading the message in the hand of the captain of the guard, Edel sighed deeply in his heart and relaxed his whole body. After tidying up his clothes and recovering, he told the captain of the guard.
"Caluster, I understand. Let the guards not be so careful. I don't eat people."
"Okay, Your Highness, I will tell them." Seeing the crown prince recover, the chief guard secretly said happily. Faced with the crown prince's recent state, the chief guard could only try his best to arrange for smart guards to come.
Stand guard to avoid making Edel angry.
After the captain of the guard left, Edel took the telegram and walked briskly to Carol I's room, asking his father to share the good news. After stopping the steward, Viscount Adri, who wanted to announce it, the crown prince walked in
Father's room.
"Is that you Edel?" Carol I asked without looking up after hearing the footsteps.
"Yes father."
"It seems that Russia has given in." As an old fox who has been able to steadily control Romania for so many years, Edel can guess the result in just one sentence.
"Father seems to be so shrewd. He can't hide anything from you." Edel also casually found a stool and sat down.
"There is nothing that can be hidden from me in Romania." The old king put down the pen in his hand, rubbed the bridge of his nose, and continued to Edel with a smile. "Now that I am old, I don't have enough energy. If I could step back ten years, I would
I can work for several days in a row.”
"In my heart, my father is still so energetic. Nothing can trouble you." Edel said, thinking of his father who could work for several days when he was a child. Now his father is older than before.
Although his hair has turned gray, Edel still feels so majestic and inviolable.
"After Russia retreats, it is impossible for Serbia to persist. But the contradictions are intensifying. I don't know if we will have such luck next time." After briefly chatting about family ties, Carol I resumed his role as a country.
Jun's role.
"Now we cannot do without Germany's help. We can only hope that we will not be so passive next time." Edel also has lingering fears about this crisis. Before, he thought he knew the historical results and always had a sense of superiority in his heart. This
The Kaiser taught him a good lesson, letting him know that no one who can leave a name in history is simple.
After continuing to chat with his father for a few words, Edel left Carol's room. Now the crisis is basically resolved, but the exercise must continue, and the crown prince is also very interested in the results of this exercise.
At the General Staff Headquarters, Edel sat with the Chief of General Staff and listened to his staff officers' summary report on the problems now exposed in this exercise.
"During this emergency exercise, we discovered a lot of problems. First of all, it was our staff's own problems. Reasonable arrangements were not made for the use of transportation time periods, which caused the Sixth Division to fail to arrange transportation in time.
, I waited for six more hours in Mokshanid. Fortunately, the Sixth Division made timely arrangements and was able to reach its destination in time."
After talking about the staff's own responsibilities, the staff officer began to talk about the problem of mobile units.
"There are also many problems in the mobile units of the exercise. The most important one is the problem of falling behind. Many soldiers have fallen behind due to various reasons. Although each division has organized follow-up recovery teams, there are still many soldiers who cannot be found.
Some of our own troops have even gone to other divisions. There have also been incidents of nuisance to the people. During the march, there have been many cases where civilian vehicles were forcibly requisitioned in order to speed up the march or reduce the pain of the march. There have been several complaints.
There were also incidents where officers misread the map and ran to other places..."
Edel heard about the various problems in this exercise and could understand it. The army was too lacking in training before. Although it has gradually improved in recent years, small problems in the army still exist. Rome was not built in a day. This requires a process.
, as long as he persists in believing that things will gradually improve, Edel can afford to wait. However, he also needs to put some pressure on the military to better spur them to work harder. The crown prince still understands this very well.
"More training is needed," Edel said to Plesan, the chief of general staff sitting next to him.
After hearing the Crown Prince's unsatisfactory words, Pleshan replied with a serious face. "I will criticize them harshly after the exercise."
"You don't need to be so serious, Chief of General Staff. I believe the officers below are more anxious than you." Edel comforted his confidants and continued. "In fact, such exercises are very good and can improve our response speed when facing war.
"
"I will conduct more such exercises in the future so that they can better adapt to this wartime environment." The chief of general staff made his own suggestion after knowing that Eder did not intend to pursue these issues.
"That's a good idea."
The crown prince left the General Staff Headquarters after listening to the exercise report.
"Don't go back to the palace yet, go to the military academy." Edel, who was sitting in the car, looked at the sunny street and thought that he hadn't visited the military academy for a long time, so he ordered the driver.
Following Edel's instructions, the Crown Prince's motorcade turned around and drove towards the Romanian Military Academy located in the suburbs.
The vehicle arrived at the gate of the military academy, and Edel asked the guards to come forward to report. Within a few minutes, he saw Principal Prosi and several senior military academy officials running over in a hurry.
"I have met His Highness." Seeing a group of people saluting him warmly, it seemed that the Crown Prince's raid was successful.
"Hello, Principal Prosi, I hope I haven't disturbed you." Edel said to the principal of the Military Academy.
"It's an honor for us to have His Highness come, so how can you interrupt us."
As a good friend of Plesan, Prosi knew Edel relatively well. After greeting the crown prince, he said, "Your Highness, please come inside."
Edel walked into the campus under the leadership of Principal Prossi. As he walked through the playground, looking at the young military cadets undergoing military training, Edel asked Prossi, who was walking behind him.
"How are these students doing?"
"This group of students has only been recruited for less than three months, and it is considered very good among the ones that have been recruited. Most of them have a good cultural foundation, and many of them have a thorough understanding of tactics.
, I guess I have either read books about this before, or have been taught it by my family, I believe there will be some good seeds.”
After hearing Principal Prosi's slightly proud praise of these students, Edel also became a little interested. For a moment, he had a bad taste in his heart and stood aside to watch. After all, they had only been in the military academy for three months. When these students saw,
Helping the big shots who can control their own future in the military academy, they accompanied a young man in his twenties to watch his military training. It was inevitable that he would feel nervous. Some smart people might have guessed the identity of this young man. I was nervous and excited for a while.
Wanting to perform, all kinds of thoughts came to mind, and the uniform team made waves.
The instructor who led the team was also secretly anxious. After the team made several mistakes in a row, beads of sweat climbed onto the instructor's forehead. Looking at the instructor's look of wanting to be angry but not daring to be angry, Edel secretly laughed in his heart.
.Knowing that he couldn't watch any more, otherwise it would ruin his training today. Edel left the playground, taking with him all the students' thoughts.
"Today I want to let you know the consequences of not training seriously."
After Edel walked some distance away, he heard a shout from the playground. It seemed that these students were in trouble. A group of school senior officials could only feel helpless in their hearts at the Crown Prince's bad taste.
Edel, who was in a good mood, inspected various facilities of the school under the leadership of Principal Prosi. The Crown Prince was all present in the classrooms, armory room, canteen, auditorium, etc. When he walked to the war simulation room, Edel listened.
There was an argument coming from inside.
"Teacher Hoffman, your infantry moves too fast on the plains. Even our fast mobile divisions don't have the speed you mentioned. I don't believe that we will be able to achieve the mobility you require in twenty years."
sex."
A rough voice sounded in the war deduction room. Edel and his gang outside could hear it clearly. They could see the intensity of the dispute. This aroused Edel's interest and signaled everyone to stand outside the room.
Interrupt this dispute.
"Teacher Ricky Siwa, we said before the deduction that everything is based on twenty years from now. I think my conclusion is reasonable. Technology is changing with each passing day. You should see that airplanes and trucks have all appeared in the past few years.
Yes, we have reason to believe that in twenty years, the army division level will be able to reach a speed of 80 kilometers." It should be the instructor Hoffman explaining his reasons.
"Teacher Hoffman needs to know that the marching speed of the army twenty years ago was 20 kilometers, and now it is only more than 30 kilometers, which is still marching. In your deduction, it takes less than a day to attack a line of defense. This is the most incomprehensible to me.
You must know that the current situation is that defense has an advantage. I personally think your reasoning is unrealistic." Teacher Riksiwa was still questioning.
"In my understanding, the cars that are gradually developing now still have great potential. With the development of the times, it is entirely possible that cars weighing more than ten tons will appear in the future. We can completely cover them with armor and add machine guns and artillery.
, forming a modern heavy cavalry. Can you imagine that current defense methods can prevent such a heavy cavalry attack?"
After a slight pause, instructor Hoffman's voice continued. "And today's aircraft can provide the army with efficient reconnaissance methods. This method cannot be resisted by the current army. It can quickly find the weak points of the enemy's defense line."
, launch an attack before the opponent can react, quickly tear apart the defense line and rush in depth. Maybe in the future we can also attack the ground from the sky."
After hearing this, Edel planned to open the door and go in to take a look. He could think of mechanized masters an era ahead of time.
"But there is a shortcoming of the car that you cannot avoid. It can only drive on the road. How are you going to solve this?" At this time, the voice of doubt rang again, and Edel planned to hear what this teacher named Hoffman had to say.
Method.
"It is indeed a problem now, but I think we can find a solution from agricultural machinery. In order to use steam in farmland, I saw that the wheels were made to be extremely huge, and some were equipped with tracks. In fact, we can also use it on cars.
Use this method."
It seemed that this Hoffman also had a deep understanding of the feasibility of his idea. After hearing this, Edel almost understood his idea, so he opened the door of the war deduction room and walked in.
When I saw the two people who were arguing, one was taller, dressed casually, with messy rice hair and beard, and the other was relatively average, neatly dressed, with blond hair carefully taken care of. He looked like a consultant.
The Germans in the regiment are no better.
The footsteps of a group of people pushing open the door woke up the two people who were having a heated discussion. Seeing a group of school senior officials accompanying a young man in his twenties, the two people hurriedly stepped forward.
Seeing that the two of them were a little at a loss, Prossi knew that the crown prince was interested in what they had just discussed, so he stepped forward and introduced. "This is Professor Rixva, Professor Hoffman."
After the introduction of Principal Prosi, Edel knew that the taller one was Riksivar, and the one who behaved more like a German was Hoffman, whom he was more interested in. After Principal Prosi introduced the two of them, he said for a moment
He paused and spoke to them. "This is His Royal Highness Crown Prince Eder."
After being introduced by Principal Prosi, the two of them saluted nervously, "I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"You're welcome." Edel continued to smile at them after signaling. "The discussion you had before was very exciting and opened my eyes. Can you tell me how you remembered doing such a deduction at that time?"
"Okay, Your Highness."
As the two of them talked about it, it turned out that they had no class today and were bored. Riksivar proposed a tactical deduction. It happened that Hoffman was studying the model of future wars, so he proposed to use twenty years as the standard. Then there was E
From what Del heard, the two argued over the standards.
After hearing the whole story, Edel said to Professor Hoffman, "I am more interested in your previous remarks and hope to continue to hear your wonderful speeches next time."
"Okay Your Highness, I will continue to improve my ideas and hope to satisfy Your Highness."
After getting Hoffman's answer, Edel didn't stay much longer and had little interest in continuing to stroll around. Under the leadership of Prossi, he returned to the campus gate and after getting in the car, he ordered the guard beside him. "Call that one Huo.
I want to find out more about Fuman's teachers, and I want to see his information."
The day after returning to the palace, Edel received detailed information about this genius with an idea. Heines von Hoffmann was his full name. He was born in Craova, northwest Romania, in 1880.
Romanian-German, his family is a Romanian baron. He graduated from the Staff Department of the Berlin Military School in Germany, and later served in the German army for a period of time. During his time in Germany, he was rejected by his colleagues because of his too advanced theories. After feeling that he had no future in the German army,
, returned to Romania and was arranged to teach at the military academy.
After reading this information, Edel said to himself, "If you hadn't been lucky enough to meet me, you would have taught for the rest of your life."
When Edel became interested in Hoffmann, the cable that Serbia finally surrendered was reported to the Crown Prince.
