Romanian Eagle

Chapter 509: Armored division

After the meeting, Edel couldn't help but rubbed his temples. The battle for these funds by these important ministers before was simply too fierce, and even his arbitrator was dazed by the quarrel. However, in the end, in addition to the 500 million US dollars of funds invested in the US stock market in advance, Edel still held up to 480 million US dollars in funds.

Because he has other uses for these funds, he can't spill them all.

As soon as the front foot of the government personnel left, the back foot of the military personnel came.

The guard came in to report. "Your Majesty, Admiral Fereit waits for someone to see you."

Edel cheered up and ordered. "Invite them in."

Following Edel's orders, the chief of the general staff, Admiral Fereit and the Secretary of the Navy, Lieutenant Admiral Lomodan walked in.

"Your Majesty, I heard that US$2 billion of national debt has been issued in the United States this time, so Lieutenant General Lomodan and I hope to invest part of the funds into national defense."

After all, General Fereit was a soldier, and he didn't speak so tactfully. As soon as he entered the door, he revealed the purpose of the two men's trip. Obviously this time the military also wants to profit from the issuance of national debt.

Admiral Fereit's words made Edel couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand. He was about to become a Tang monk, and everyone wanted to get a piece of the pie. However, the military's attitude still needs to be considered, and it is indeed necessary to invest funds to ensure the military's combat effectiveness.

"Then tell me what plan your military has prepared for this. Let me talk about it first. This money is mainly used for the domestic economy, so it is impossible to invest too much in the military."

Edel was vaccinated first, otherwise, according to the character of the military, he might want to surprise him.

"Your Majesty, we know this. This time I came mainly to obtain some funds for the research and development of new weapons."

After speaking, Admiral Fereit put the two documents in front of him, and it seemed that the military came prepared this time.

And Edel picked up the two documents and found that one was the Army's new equipment research and development and unit reorganization plan, and the other was the Navy ship construction and new equipment research and development plan.

Edel didn't read the two plans first, but asked instead. "How is the army reorganization done?"

Admiral Feleit, who was questioned, immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the work of the regiment has been abolished and the regiment is proceeding smoothly. At present, 21 of the 24 divisions owned by the Army have been reorganized and will be completed next year. All the adaptation work."

Admiral Fereit’s words made Edel very satisfied. The two-brigade system to three regiments is also the general trend. It seems that Admiral Fereit has done a good job.

Edel then asked about another topic of concern.

"How is the military exchange with the Germans?"

"At present, the first batch of German exchanges have arrived in China. I personally went to see them. These are young officers and they are also experienced. We communicated with them fairly well. It can be seen that the Germans still attach great importance to communicating with us."

"In addition, our military technology exchange with Germany is also good. Their aircraft and heavy artillery technology is worth learning. And we are not bad. The Germans are full of praise for our tank technology."

Hearing the answer from Admiral Fereit, Edel said with satisfaction. "That's good. The military exchanges between our country and Germany are very important, which will greatly improve our national defense career."

"I will continue to supervise and will not let the exchanges between the two countries have twists and turns."

After talking with Admiral Feleit, Edel asked about Lieutenant Admiral Lomodan of the Navy. "How is the progress of the ships currently under construction?"

"Your Majesty, the current progress is good and it can be guaranteed to be completed as planned. In particular, the Brevista is especially focused on ensuring its construction efficiency."

The Brevista that Lieutenant General Lomodan referred to was the 10,000-ton heavy cruiser in the previous five-year plan of the Navy.

The Brevista is 194 meters long, 18.5 meters wide, has a standard displacement of 11,000 tons (externally claimed to be 9,950 tons), and a full load of 13,670 tons. Four heavy oil-fired boilers and four steam turbines have a maximum output of 110,000 horsepower and a maximum horsepower of 34 knots. 7000 nautical miles/14 knots, 3800 nautical miles/18 knots

The weaponry is equipped with eight 203 mm 45-caliber naval guns, which are arranged in two fronts and two rears. Six single-barreled 88mm 50-caliber dual-purpose guns, six double-mounted 20mm-caliber anti-aircraft guns, and 4x double-mounted 610mm torpedo tubes.

The armor is: side armor 127-146mm, deck 37-46mm, and mine armor 25-58mm. The main turret is 35mm, the mount is 25-38mm, and the ammunition magazine is 52-90mm.

It can be said that this heavy cruiser, named after the founder of Dacia, the first kingdom of Romania, fully meets the needs of the Romanian Navy.

After questioning the two, Edel finally picked up the plan of the army at the top. Turning to the first page, Edel saw the eye-catching headline, Suggestions for the Armored Brigade Reform Division.

In this proposal, the current armored brigade believes that its small size is not conducive to a breakthrough in war. And in the future, the enemy will definitely have a large number of anti-tank weapons, even armored forces. In addition, in view of the future enhancement of Romania’s main threat to the Soviet Union’s military capabilities, the brigade-level armored forces are also reducing their deterrence ~www.wuxiahere.com~ So Romania needs to increase its armored forces, mainly to upgrade the current armored brigade with one brigade and two regiments. It is a system of one division and three regiments. The main one is the addition of an infantry regiment.

In addition, in the previous battles, it was found that the motorized infantry regiment had poor breakthrough ability, but the vehicles and trucks used by its troops did not have the ability to travel in the field. So I hope to improve this situation next. Mainly need to develop crawler vehicles, it is best to have a certain degree of protection and firepower to deal with emergencies.

In addition, the current number of tanks in its core armored regiment is small when facing the enemy, and it also hopes to change the current 112 (3x4x9+4 supplementary tanks) organization to 148 (4x4x9+4). In addition, the mechanized infantry regiment also needs to be equipped with an armored battalion (4x9+2) for each regiment to allow it to have small-scale independent breakthrough capabilities, so the final armored division needs to have 224 tanks.

In addition, with the expansion of the armored division, the demand for air defense, reconnaissance, and support firepower will also increase. Therefore, its subordinate air defense battalions, artillery battalions, transportation battalions and other units also need to increase their equipment and personnel.

Edel took a breath when he saw it, it wasn't that he scared him. But the armored unit is very expensive. This brigade reform division is completely burning money, and he feels distressed.

Edel resisted the urge to refuse on the spot and kept watching. The following are normal. They are all about the research and development requirements of new equipment, such as the research and development of bombers, transport aircraft, new artillery and other weapons.

Only then did Edel discover that Admiral Feleit was estimated to know that the brigade reform division was spending too much, and he was afraid to speak from other aspects.

Edel put down the army's plan and picked up the navy's plan. I didn't know that the navy wanted to do it.
