Romanian Eagle

Edel was in the room for a day, and when he came out the next morning, the head guard looked at the crown prince with concern, making him a little embarrassed. However, under the deliberate flattery of the two maids, Edel really felt a little squeezed.

"Is there anything the chief guard is looking for from me?" Edel asked while sitting behind the desk.

"His Royal Highness, the chief of staff of Preshan is here." The chief of the guard said to the crown prince.

Edel heard that the chief of the general staff came over and said to Calust. "Please come in, Chief of Staff."

After a while, the chief of the general staff, Preshan, walked in tall and straight, wearing a military uniform and holding a document in his hand.

"I have seen Your Highness."

Facing the crown prince, Preshan was still very polite.

"I don't know what the general is coming here for this time?"

Edel's concern for the army is still in the first place, especially the army is what concerns him the most.

"This time, it is mainly for His Highness to see our newly prepared military training plan."

Preshan handed the training plan in his hand to the crown prince, and Eder started to read it after taking it. In this training plan of Puleshan, the training volume of each division has increased a lot. In the field armed march, army shooting training, medical rescue training, and the newly added transport vehicle maintenance training, etc. have their own emphasis on increasing. In particular, the three divisions with the worst reorganization last year will receive targeted training this year. This year, Pleishan prepared 13 million rounds of infantry machine guns for these three divisions, and 9,000 rounds of training shells plus 600 tons of other military supplies. He vowed that the three new divisions who were dragging their feet would be ruthless. Practice out.

Eder took a general look, and felt that Chief of Staff Preshan was still very attentive to this training plan, and strengthened training for each division targeting weak points. Although Edel doesn't know much about the military, he can still see the general idea after reorganizing it over the past few years.

"Very well done," Edel said to Chief of General Staff Preshan after reading the pages.

"Last year's inspection was too bad, and this time we have to let them come up with the results." Preshan explained to the crown prince.

Edel certainly knows how bad it was last year. This year, the military all want to save face, but it still needs the cooperation of the government. He directly asked the biggest question 'funding'.

"How much money do you plan to invest in this training plan?"

In the face of the questioning going out, Pu Liesan answered in a weak voice. "For this training plan, our General Staff estimates 35 million lei. As long as the funds are sufficient, this training will eliminate the problems caused by insufficient funds before."

After hearing the boast of the chief of staff of Preshan, Edel knew that the problem now lies in the funding. Otherwise, Pleishan would not have spoken to him like this, so the crown prince had to cooperate with the chief of staff.

"How far is it now?"

After hearing the question from the crown prince, Preshan said quickly. "It's still 15 million lei away."

After hearing the answer from the chief of the general staff, Edel asked a little puzzled. "I remember that the budget for the army at the beginning of this year was 94 million lei. This year, the army does not have a large amount of ordnance procurement. Is it not enough?"

In the face of the crown prince's question, General Preshan could only report the specific expenses to him. "His Royal Highness, although the military expenditure this year has been reduced by a large amount of reorganization costs, the cost of the navy has increased by 6 million lei this year, and this year's replenishment of ordnance still has a cost of 13 million lei. In addition to the training fee to make up for the lack of last year, An increase of 17 million lei over the previous year, but in fact this year's military spending is not enough."

After hearing Pleishan's explanation, Eder knew that the army had sufficient funds in recent years, and the budget fluctuated greatly. This time, the government was a little bit stuck on the military, and this is what is happening now. Preshan is looking for him now, hoping that Wang Energy will get enough military spending by putting pressure on the government.

Edel is now well aware of the military's intentions, which is to cry poor. But now Edel is a little surprised by the military's reaction.

This was something he didn't expect.

"I know about this situation. I will issue a document to the Prime Minister tomorrow, asking him to consider your difficulties." After thinking about it, Edel told Pleishan his solution.

This is the result of the crown prince's deliberation. Now that the new Prime Minister Bretianu has just taken office, it is time to consolidate his position. Edel is also not good at imposing his will on the government, which is not good for the royal family. It is still necessary to leave some power for the Romanian nobles and political families to fight for, otherwise they will unite and express their ideas to the royal family.

After hearing the crown prince's words, Preshan knew that this was the crown prince's last bottom line. It is estimated that the military will not have such preferential treatment in the future. After returning to the General Staff, it is necessary for these staffs to prepare the military's budget in the future. How much needs to be calculated clearly in order to compete for the share belonging to the military in future budget meetings.

"Thank you His Royal Highness for your concern for the army. We will serve as a sharp blade for the kingdom to protect Romania's own interests." Preshan told the crown prince the military's attitude, which is what Eder needs most now.

"General Presan hopes that you can help me train the sharp edge so that I can see its radiant side."

Facing the crown prince's encouragement, Preshan left contentedly. Seeing the Chief of General Staff walking out of the room, Edel knew that this was not an encouragement but a requirement, and if Preshan couldn't come up with the standard he demanded, he would be given up.

After the chief of staff left, Edel called a bodyguard and handed him the training report given by Preshan to the bodyguard. "You give this document to the prime minister and he will know what to do."

"Okay, Your Highness."

At the Prime Minister's Office, Prime Minister Bretianu is in his office, watching a training plan for the army handed to him by a guard. He knew the intention of the crown prince to let him see this training plan, but he was surprised by the military training plan. This is 7% of the total fiscal revenue, and there are many major expenditures that are not as high as this.

Prime Minister Bretianu walked back and forth in the office thinking, and now the crown prince means that he has no way to refuse. First, he came to power and the power has not been fully controlled. Second, this is the first time that the crown prince has asked the government to do things well and refuse, and the government has sufficient funds for the time being.

After thinking about it, Prime Minister Bretianu went to the desk and wrote an instruction for the staff to send to the Ministry of Finance. In this signed approval note, a special grant of 15 million lei was granted to the army to improve the military's condition.

Watching the staff leave the office with their own approval slips, Prime Minister Bretianu's plan to increase investment in medical care and education was in vain. He has no choice but to resolutely resist such a situation next year.
