Romanian Eagle

When the great battle broke out in Deva, the other two armies attacking Transylvania finally captured their respective objectives.

In the city of Brasov, Army Group Center finally won here. Looking at the ruins revealed everywhere, the army commander Lieutenant General Andrew showed a gloomy look in his eyes.

Speaking of which, it was these Austro-Hungarian troops who deserved to go to hell who made him show this expression. They fought to the death, took advantage of their familiarity with this place, and resisted so much that they spent too much time on them. Therefore, only when the other two paths have been successful, did he reveal his embarrassment.

Of course, because the General Staff has allocated their supply and transportation capabilities, it is also one of the reasons to satisfy the Southern Army first, but this cannot be said, because the Northern Army is also affected, but others can successfully complete the task according to the plan. Fortunately, now that he has finally won the target, he can relieve it, but it is still not worth Andrew to ease his emotions. Because in the telegram sent by the General Staff, his Central Army needs to immediately merge with the Northern Army, and the next commander of this super large army is Lieutenant General Freiette, the commander of the Northern Army.

This made Andrew feel very uncomfortable, knowing that during the Balkan War, he was the commander of the Second Army, and Feleit was only a division commander. It was only after the war that Fareit was appreciated by His Majesty Eder, who was still the crown prince, and his status in the army skyrocketed. Every time Andrew thinks of this, he feels the uncertainty of his fate, but now he must reunite with Freyte.

At this time, a communications staff officer came in to report. "Your Excellency Commander, a telegram from Army Group North."

"It seems that Lieutenant General Freiit is really eager."

Andrew took the telegram after laughing at himself. However, after getting it in his hands, Andrew was obviously taken aback. This was an encrypted telegram that he needed to unravel in person. Regarding this password, Andrew remembered that it was specially given to the three commanders of the army by the Chief of General Staff before departure, and it was also stated that it was used for sending some important telegrams. Andrew thought he wouldn't use it, but he didn't expect Feleit to use it first. Could something happen?

With doubts in his heart, after Andrew sent away the communications staff, he took out the decoding book from the lockbox and began to decrypt word by word. However, as he decoded it, he was surprised by the contents of the telegram, but even his lieutenant general was moved by the generous rewards.

Andrew didn't think about it for too long. When the war was over, he didn't have much time to think. So he called the communications staff directly.

"Record my order now."

In the rustling sound of the staff pencil and paper rubbing, Andrew continued to order. "Now the entire army has left a brigade to guard the security, except for the 14th Division.

Apart from maintaining the logistical supply line, all other troops are ready to set off. Our destination is Sonat, where Army North is waiting for us. "

Sonat, a small town forty kilometers east of Cluj, was a suitable meeting point for the two armies. Just away from the attack of the enemy forces entrenched in Cluj, but the only disadvantage is that it is too far from the central army and needs to hurry up. (Sonat is 208 kilometers from Brasov and 145 kilometers from Odosessk, the seat of Army Group North.)

Facing Lieutenant General Andrew's order, the communications staff answered loudly. "Yes, I'll give the order right now."

"and many more……"

Andrew stopped him at this time. "Send a telegram to Army Group North and say it's going according to plan."

In the face of his commander's mindless sentence, the communications staff knew that it must have something to do with it, but it was not something he should be concerned about, he just needed to execute it.

The radio waves from Army Group Center quickly reached Odosessk, where Army Group North is currently located, and when it was reported that Freyt was studying the terrain of Sonat on the operational map.

When he heard Andrew's call back as planned, he put down his pen and gave an order to the staff. "Now I order that Army North, except for the Eighth Division, leave a brigade to cover the back road, and the other troops are ready to march immediately. Our destination is Sonat. Let the comrades in Army Group Central know that our Army North will be waiting there. Bring them to supper."

Soon after the order was issued, the North Army began to move towards Sonat, and the words of Lieutenant General Freiit about preparing a late-night snack for the Central Army brothers also inadvertently spread throughout the North Army. So this also resulted in the acceleration of the march of Army Group North, which immediately caught the attention of the Austro-Hungarian Ninth Army in Cluj.

"Chief of Staff, this is the latest development of the two Romanian armies, what do you think?"

After getting the newly detected information just now, Lieutenant General Fan Siteng looked at the telegram in his hand and asked his chief of staff.

In the face of his partner's question, some chief of staff who didn't understand had to answer cautiously. "There is some disconnect between the two armies."

The answer of his chief of staff did not satisfy Fan Siteng, he pointed out directly. "It's not a bit out of touch, and it's quite out of touch. The distance between the two armies is sixty kilometers. Do you know what that means?"

Before waiting for the chief of staff to answer, Lieutenant General Fan Siteng said it himself. "This means a distance of two days. If we arrange the troops to delay a little bit, this is at least four days. This allows us to do a lot of things, such as destroying them individually."

Hearing Lieutenant General Fan Siteng express his thoughts, the chief of staff said immediately. "Are you trying to replicate the Battle of Tannenberg in East Prugge by the German Eighth Army?"

Lieutenant General Fan Siteng admitted generously to the Chief of Staff's inquiry. "What's wrong with that?"

The chief of staff, who always feels that there are some places that are not clear, said. "It is feasible, but it will draw most of our troops. Will we give the opponent a chance to take advantage of this?"

Regarding the chief of staff's concerns, Lieutenant General Fan Siteng said. "There is some reason to worry about what you said, but it is not feasible at present. Because the distance between the two Romanian armies is very large, this will give us enough time to defeat the enemy's North Army first, and then deal with it separately. The enemy's Army Group Center."

Speaking of which, Fan Siteng continued. "If you want to win, there is no risk at all."

In the end, Lieutenant General Fan Siteng made the decision, because Romania had too many flaws, he had no reason to give up this rare opportunity, and in order to prevent possible accidents, in addition to leaving a division to defend Cluj, he also let the Austro-Hungarian Air Force at any time. Investigate the movements of the two armies.

After doing this, Fan Siteng planned to assemble his troops to give the arrogant Romanians a powerful blow and let them know how powerful the Austro-Hungarian army was.
