After Eder returned from Constanta, the chief of the General Staff, Pressan, came to the crown prince's office in a hurry.

"Your Highness, this is the training plan we have prepared."

After entering the office and greeting the crown prince, Chief of General Staff of Presan put his long-prepared formation plan in front of Eder.

Edel picked up the formation plan prepared by Admiral Prishan with his staff officers and flipped through it.

In this reorganization plan, the General Staff suggested that a small number of backbone cadres from each division be transferred to form the two new divisions. Among them, the commanders of the 15th and 18th Divisions of the Romanian Army were given the numbers of the 15th Division, and the General Staff of the 15th Division gave Major General Kledov, deputy commander of the 3rd Division, Major General Andokos, deputy commander of the 5th Division, and Major General Stoliko, deputy commander of the 8th Division. The candidates for the commander of the 18th Division were Major General Moderk, deputy commander of the 1st Praetorian Division, Major General Peter Pan, deputy commander of the 2nd Division, and Major General Dotrid of the 8th Division.

Eder looked at the candidates given by the General Staff, all of whom were capable and qualified generals in the army, and they were generally in their forties. Except for Major General Moderk, the deputy commander of the 1st Praetorian Guards Division, he was a little older and only turned fifty years old. Eder couldn't help but look up and ask Admiral Prishan who was standing in front of him.

"What about the opinion of your General Staff?"

In the face of the crown prince's inquiry, Admiral Prishan knew that this question should not be answered by himself, otherwise he would not be far from being removed. He said with a shirk. "It's all up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and each of them is up to the task."

Hearing Admiral Prishan's words of absustion, Eder couldn't force him. In fact, there are quite a few candidates in the army who can be qualified for these two new divisions, and when the general staff is making preparations and plans, the army will get the news. After all, the division commander and the deputy division commander are only a little behind, but the division commander is half a foot into the military hierarchy.

Rumors have been confirmed that Lieutenant General Fereit of the 12th Division will take over as Director of Education, and that he will take over as Director of Education in a month's time. Facing Lieutenant General Fereit, who is about to become one of the three giants of the Romanian Army (Minister of the Army, Chief of the General Staff, Director of Education), there is no one who does not say that he does not envy. Even if he is the weakest giant among them, it is much better than being a division commander.

Faced with such a situation, the two newly formed divisions were quickly targeted by those who had a heart, after all, the path of Lieutenant General Fereit could also be replicated. So soon some people went to the staff headquarters to sell themselves, but all of them were blocked by Admiral Pureshan. If others are only envious of Lieutenant General Fereitt's chance, for him it is more of a worry.

Admiral Pletshan knew that the crown prince would not allow himself to dominate the army. It seemed to him that the crown prince would divide his power after he ascended the Romanian throne, and for that he would relinquish some of it at that time, and he did not intend to implicate the War Ministry. However, in the face of the crown prince's move to start decentralizing power now, where would he dare to meet those division commander candidates.

With no news from Prissan, Eder could only rely on what he knew to choose the commanders of the two divisions. Among them, he chose Major General Kledov, deputy commander of the 3rd Division.

Major General Kledov was born in Iasi, who studied military courses in military academies since he was a child, and later served as company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander and other positions. However, this is not the main reason why Eder chose him, the main reason is that he has always shown his loyalty to the royal family.

Plus he was the man of the Minister of War, General Courtois, so Eder chose him. After the war against Bulgaria, Eder found that he could not afford to snub the military forces representing his father's line, otherwise he would likely let the family of the chief of the General Staff, Presan dominate in the future. This was something that every superior could not tolerate, which is why he supported Lieutenant General Fereitt, who had performed well in the war.

It's just that Lieutenant General Fereit has not yet grown up, and Eder has taken a fancy to the military power of his father, Carol I. Anyway, in the future, it must be his own successor, and these people represented by General Courtois did not show any uneasiness, and Eder did not forget to show favor to them, and the promotion of Major General Kledov was also a manifestation of this.

"The commander of the 15th Division is to be held by Major General Kledov."

After thinking about it for a while, Eder looked up and told Preshan his choice.

"Yes, Your Highness."

After hearing the answer given by the crown prince, Prishan wrote down the name of Major General Kledov, believing that it would not be long before he received the good news.

After deciding on the commander of the 15th Division, Eder continued to study the candidates for the 18th Division. But now it's much easier to choose, after giving his father's line of power, then the rest is his own candidate, although Major General Moderick is fifty years old, but the crown prince thinks that he can still be the commander of the eighteenth division.

"The Eighteenth Division will be taken over by Major General Morderk."

Eder didn't think long before he named the Eighteenth Division.

"Your Highness."

After deciding on the candidates for the commanders of the two divisions, Eder continued to decide on the candidates for the deputy commanders and chiefs of staff of the two divisions, of which the deputy commander of the 15th Division was taken over by Colonel Bokning, the former commander of the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Division, and the chief of staff was Colonel Bodolph of the 4th Military Affairs Office of the General Staff. The deputy commander of the 18th Division was Colonel Leswa, the former commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 4th Division, and the chief of staff was taken over by Lieutenant Colonel Andrewson, the former chief of staff of the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Division.

As for the brigade and regimental officers of the two newly formed divisions, they were appointed by the General Staff.

Eder asked with concern after deciding on the candidates for the two divisions. "How's the preparation of the equipment personnel?"

After hearing the Crown Prince's inquiry, Admiral Prishan gave information on the control of the General Staff. "Your Highness, in terms of personnel, we have enlisted new recruits and delayed the retirement of some personnel so that the two divisions can be full. As for the equipment, it has already been transferred from the material reserve warehouse, but we still have a gap of 105 howitzers for 7 units, and I have already sent an order to the arsenal for them to meet the needs of the army as soon as possible. ”

After Chief of Staff Prishan had finished talking about the formation of the two new divisions, Eder asked. "Chief of the General Staff, I plan to expand the 105 howitzer battalion to 18 to 18 guns belonging to each division, what do you think?"

Eder had previously considered the idea of expanding the 105 howitzer, but it was not realized due to lack of money. Now that World War I was approaching, and the Romanian government was still short of money, Eder felt that he could not wait any longer. As for the arsenal's production capacity, this is not a problem at all, the annual production capacity of 150 105 howitzers has not been running at full speed, and Eder intends to run it at full capacity.

After hearing the crown prince's words, of course Prishan was willing, but considering the current Romanian finances, he asked a little unconfirmed. "Your Highness, if you expand it like this, the current military budget will not be enough."

Hearing Prishan's words of wanting to increase military spending, Eder looked at his chief of staff a little scoundrel, feeling that he was too condescending not to go into business.

"I will ask the government to allocate 35 million lei for you to purchase it, but you have to equip it as soon as possible, the situation in Europe has been a bit suffocating recently."

After hearing the words of the crown prince, Prishan could only reply. "Okay, Your Highness, I will let the factory speed up production on the date indicated in the order."

Soon the news that each division would expand by 6 105 howitzers spread in the army, and all divisions were jubilant, except that there were more machine guns than the Germans, and now the Romanian army was equipped with a complete copy of the German army. And Eder now needed to prepare to speed up Romania's material reserves, and it was at this moment that a piece of news made him put down his work.

PS There was a delay before the steamed bun, I hope you don't blame it.
