The next day, King Carroll and his entourage came to the exercise headquarters and continued to observe the second half of the offensive and defensive exercises. The people present in the defensive operations of the reorganized army have a profound understanding, and today they are mainly observing how much the offensive capability has improved. The two commanders, Bram and Midrol, were praised by everyone for their wonderful performances yesterday.

Now the two armies swapped places and began a new offensive and defensive drill.

At the offensive command, the commander of the 3rd Division, General Midroll, was deploying his plans. "The artillery regiment first covered the front-line positions with 75 guns, focusing on the right flank positions, and 105 guns waited for a counterattack. A mass waits for the fire to cover and then tentatively attack. "As the order was issued, the shells flew to the defender's front-line positions, and the exercise staff officers observed the landing points of the shells and calculated the first-line losses.

"Our artillery is less caliber than the third division, and the artillery should not counterattack." General Bram was at the headquarters, and after seeing the situation in the front-line positions, he gave orders to the staff officers behind him. The exercise command observed the shelling, "No worse than yesterday's Fifth Division, Midrol is also a very capable person." The Secretary of War said to the Chief of the General Staff beside him.

After the end of the shelling, the staff officer calculated the damage and reported to the exercise command. "The front-line positions lost seven percent of their combat effectiveness." "Why are there more than yesterday's Fifth Division?" a general asked, and the exercise staff officer replied. "That's because the third division has more artillery than the fifth division, plus the fifth division has a larger number of people on the first line, reaching three regiments."

At the command, General Midlore, seeing the end of the shelling, ordered a regiment to tentatively attack. After a regiment dispersed in front of the defensive position, a tentative attack began, and for a moment the position was full of gunfire. Compared with the reorganized Third Division, although the Fifth Division had more numbers, it was still suppressed in terms of firepower, and the Madsen light machine gun that could follow the infantry charge and the Maxim heavy machine gun that could provide fire support in the rear gave the attacker a clear advantage, which made everyone in the exercise headquarters shine brightly.

General Midroll, who was seen in the headquarters, ordered, "Let them withdraw." Then the regiment that tried to attack retreated, and the staff officer of the exercise also reported the losses of both sides to the king and his party, and the defenders lost 5 percent, and the attackers lost 15 percent. Looking at this report, a group of people were surprised, knowing that it was three regiments defending and one regiment attacking. "It seems that after the reorganization, the attack of the army has improved a lot," said the old king, and Prieshan and others also saw the great changes after the reorganization of the army. "Let's keep watching."

"It seems that there are three regiments guarding the first-line position, so at least one regiment is needed on the second-line, and General Bram has one or two regiments in his hands?" General Midrall thought in the command post that he was not worried about offensive losses, and most of the junior officers had a training record and had greatly improved their combat skills. Ordered the right flank of the artillery regiment to fire sharply, and the three regiments focused on attacking the right flank and told them to hurry, and after the attack was launched, the artillery regiment intercepted the reinforcements, "If you don't understand, you don't want to, see how Bram can prevent my heavy blow." Midrol thought to himself.

Then the artillery bombardment fell on the defenders again, and after the shelling was over, a full three regiments of troops launched an attack on the defensive positions. General Bram ordered after seeing the fighting ahead. "Give the artillery regiment an order to target the artillery to the assault group and reinforce two regiments to the front line." The chief of staff advised, "In this way, if we break through the front-line position, we may not be able to hold it by attacking in depth." General Bram explained his decision to the Chief of Staff. If reinforcements are not transferred, they will definitely not be able to hold on, their firepower is too strong, the density of the number of people retreating to the second-line position is too great, the artillery threat is even heavier, and our second-line position will also collapse. ”

The three regiments of the 3rd Division were already approaching their positions, and the artillery of both sides was also firing at each other, and General Midrol saw reinforcements on the opposite side. "Bring the last regiment up as well. The artillery regiment took two battalions to intercept reinforcements from the opposite side. "It seems that General Midrol intends to strike a single blow.

In the front-line position, the two sides fought abnormally, and you came and went. In the end, the three regiments rushed forward with reinforcements and rushed into the position, and for a time the defensive right flank was defeated by superior firepower. At this time, the reinforcements of the fifth division finally arrived, and one side relied on the number of people and the other side relied on the firepower, and the battle became a state of Jiaozuo.

At this point, General Midrol gave it a go, and a regiment joined the battle, and the balance of victory tipped in favor of the attacking side. The defenders were beaten to the ground. Seeing that there was an opportunity, General Midrol ordered the three regiments not to stop and continue to break through to the second-line positions. A regiment defending on the second line was also faced with a headache in the face of this situation, because the three regiments of the attacking side followed the defeated troops. In the end, the 5th Division was unable to defend against the attack of the 3rd Division, allowing the attackers to win.

In the subsequent maneuver of the whole division, the 3rd Division also took the lead in arriving at the designated place to complete the exercise by virtue of its excellent logistical support. This made both the king and the military extremely satisfied, and everything met the military's expectations, except that the price was too expensive.

At the summary meeting after the exercise, the top military leaders gathered, and Eder also came to listen to the army's summary experience. The Chief of the General Staff of Prishan began to summarize the exercises. "Colleagues, this exercise is generally satisfactory, but we must also see some deficiencies, first of all, as our tactical unit at the division level, there is a lack of power in the firepower attack on the defensive positions." This is not enough, does the military want to allocate 150 guns to the division level, Eder complained in his heart.

"During the combat exercises, we should see that the troops have the problem of disconnection between the front and the back, and we should also strengthen training. The reorganized divisions are much stronger than the non-integrated divisions in all respects, but it can be seen from this exercise that the consumption of ammunition is also three times greater than that of the non-integrated divisions, and this is a new test for logistical support. From here, it is necessary to strengthen the training of our army's logistics officers, and in the future work of the army, logistics support will be the department that will test us the most. ”

At the summary meeting, Prishan said that there are many problems in the formation of troops in the exercise, and Eder has no opinion on training logistics, etc., and Eder really has an opinion on the lack of firepower, and for the small Romanian country, the army that is now trained is enough to fight one station, and the current equipment level is already the maximum in Romania. The armies of the great European powers are all at this level, and Preshan still wants to make a big news.

After the meeting, Eder approached the chief of the general staff and told him. "Chief of Staff: Now this equipment is the biggest force of payment and finance. It is unlikely that it will increase for at least 10 years. Preshan hurriedly replied. Crown Prince, I mainly gave the army a prospect, and did not think about increasing firepower. However, according to the standards of the exercise, logistics may not be able to turn around in wartime. Hearing Prishan's words, Edel thought of a great idea that would change the logistics, and for a person to come after him, it would be simple.
