After the countries signed the treaty in Bucharest, the British newspaper The Times reported on it. The war in the Balkans was triggered by the uneven division of the territories between the countries, in which the two camps, the Alliance and the Entente, each played a different role.

After commenting on the war, The Times focused on Romania's performance in the war. While all eyes were on the war between Bulgaria and Serbia, Romania, the most powerful of the Balkan states, put an end to it. The battle in Tarnovo caused Bulgaria, known as Prussia in the Balkans, to suffer heavy losses, and it had to sue for peace to change the current situation. For Romania we just know that this country has a lot of grain and oil, and its cars and farm machinery are good, and it is well received in European countries.

But it all started eight years ago, when Romanians received £12.5 million worth of industrial aid loans from Germany. This loan laid the beginning of Romania's path to industrialization. This was followed by the establishment of modern petrochemical plants in Romania, as well as the establishment of automobile manufacturing, with a large number of cars exported to various parts of Europe. Until now, the Model T has been considered the most affordable passenger car, and its Dongfeng trucks have also replaced freight carriages in various places, accounting for most of the short-distance transportation industry. It is now necessary for countries to consult on what they need to do in the Balkans, because this country has become an unavoidable topic in the Balkans. There is reason to believe that Romania was the gendarme of the Balkans during the confrontation between Austria-Hungary and Russia, and that it was also obliged to ensure that the countries of the peninsula were protected from the flames of war.

Now the freshly baked Times sits on Eder's desk. Eder smiled at the Times' touting. If he really accepts this title without knowing how to do it, his head is abnormal. Now that Austria-Hungary and Russia are there, where does Romania have the ability to do this, unless it is possible to divide the inheritance from these two powers after the First World War.

Despite his disdain for this report, Eder saw in it the Allies' overtures to Romania. It seems that they also feel that Russia is under a bit of pressure on the Eastern Front alone, and they hope to relieve Russia of some pressure. However, how could Eder, who knew the history of World War I, change his current position just because of this gesture of goodwill, in a word, the Entente promised Romania the entire Balkan Peninsula, and he would not join the Entente immediately, this is completely to destroy his few family foundations.

Just as Edel sighed at this, the chief of the guard, Calust, walked in.

"Your Highness, the officers have arrived."

After hearing the report from the chief of the guard, Edel stood up and straightened his clothes and spoke to him. "Then let's go over."

In fact, the Romanian army, under the command of the Minister of War, General Courtois, is retreating from Bulgarian territory to various stations in the country. Of course, a large garrison was needed for the time being in the newly acquired territory to suppress these Bulgarians, who had already been returned to Romania, so the General Staff left the 12th and 17th divisions as garrisons.

However, the meritorious reward had to be carried out first, so that the officers could not feel that their hard work had been in vain, so on the third day after the peace talks, the officers in need of a reward handed over the retreat to their deputies, and left their respective units and arrived in Bucharest. Because the old king was not in good health, it was the crown prince himself who presented awards to the meritorious officers this time.

In the hall, the twenty or thirty officers on the commendation list were chatting in their respective small circles, among which the chief of the general staff, Lieutenant General Prishan, was the most officers. They all knew the news that Prieshan was about to be promoted to general. However, he was surrounded by some epaulettes with generals in order to get close to speak.

On the other side, the current commander of the 12th Division, Major General Fereitt, also had some officers around him to talk, and the 12th Division in the Battle of Tarnovo was considered a high level of hard work, which also allowed him to add a general star to his epaulettes. He is now seen by many as the next rising military boss in the Romanian army, as he is rumored to be taking over as the retiring director of military education. This position will bring him a lot of network support, then it becomes quite possible to take over as Chief of the General Staff in the future.

Major Hoffmann, in an inconspicuous corner, looked at everything in front of him with envy, and wondered when he could be surrounded in the middle as a core. It's a bit embarrassing that he can appear here this time, he is now the deputy head of the automobile transport regiment, and he has been added to the list of commendations for his meritorious service in transporting supplies. At present, a car transport group in Romania has about 400 Dongfeng trucks, and a transport group with maintenance and maintenance personnel has about 1,200 people.

After Major Hoffman was favored by the crown prince at the military academy, he was first transferred to the crown prince as a captain to inspect it, and was sent to the cavalry division as a staff officer to improve his actual combat level. Because there were no armored vehicles in Romania at first, he was promoted to a higher level and transferred to the Motor Transport Regiment as a deputy commander to understand mechanized operation. As a result, in time for the war, he went to the battlefield with the transport regiment, but only to transport ammunition.

I was lucky enough to catch up with the award list because of my good ability. However, the credit for logistics is a bit indescribable after all, and all armies still consider that only the merit of going into battle to kill the enemy is the most honorable, and Major Hoffman is no exception. Faced with this credit that he couldn't say a little bit, so he could only find a corner and watch quietly.

While the officers were taking advantage of this rare opportunity to get to know each other, Eder led the chief of the guard to the hall where the generals were honored.

"His Highness Eder has arrived."

With the sound of the guards, the officers who were still seated lined up according to their respective status and merits and waited for the arrival of the crown prince. Among them, Lieutenant General Prieshan stood at the front, followed by Major General Fereitt, and Major Hoffmann was very conscious at the end of the line.

"I've seen Your Highness."

After seeing the crown prince enter, Lieutenant General Preshan led a group of officers to salute Eder in a neat manner. This made Edel look at the neat military salute and feel that his thoughts were not in vain, and waved to the group of officers under him with satisfaction.

Looking at the heroic officers in front of him, Eder also faced them with pride in his heart and began to talk about his expectations of them. "Ladies and gentlemen, it is your efforts that have made it possible for the Romanian army to perform so well in this war. On behalf of the royal family and the people, I would like to thank you for your efforts to change the perception of the Romanian army in the countries of Europe. ”

After the crown prince finished his brief words of thanks, the Romanian officers present shouted in unison. "For the sake of Romania, all glory be to the kingdom."

After a short and encouraging opening remarks, the exciting commendation began, with the officers standing still, and Eder starting with General Preshan.

Edel stood in front of Prishan and looked at his henchmen who had followed him for almost ten years, and the chief of the guard behind him said that Lieutenant General Prishan had been promoted to meritorious service. "Lieutenant General Prieshan is now awarded the rank of general because he perfectly led and planned the war against Bulgaria and personally led the First Army in the war."

Eder first took off the lieutenant general's epaulettes from General Preshan, and then took the pair of three general-star epaulettes representing the rank of general from the tray in the guard's hand and put them on him.

The crown prince said, holding the hand of Prissan. "Congratulations to Admiral Prieshan."

Glancing at the rank of general, the chief of the General Staff, Pu Lieshan, said loudly with a little excitement. "For the kingdom."

After giving Prishan a promotion, Eder walked up to Major General Fereit beside him. It was still the guard behind him who read out loud the reason for the promotion. "Major General Fereit made an irreplaceable contribution to the annihilation of the main force and the defeat of the Bulgarian army in the decisive Battle of Tarnovo with Bulgaria, so Fereit was promoted to lieutenant general."

Eder removed the one-star epaulette of Major General Ferreuit and put on the two-star epaulette representing the lieutenant general. "Congratulations to Lieutenant General Fereitt."

Looking at the two-star lieutenant general on his shoulder, Lieutenant General Fereit was no better than Prishan, and he also said excitedly. "For the kingdom."

Subsequently, Edel successively awarded promotions to other meritorious officers, but not every officer could be promoted, only half of them were promoted on the spot, and the rest were only awarded various medals. Although there are only medals, these officers are still happy, because being personally commended by the crown prince means that promotion is imminent, but it is not yet worthy of the crown prince to wear the rank for them personally.

Towards the end of the award, Eder finally walked up to the last Major Hoffman, glanced at Major Hoffman who had been with him, and picked up a crown medal to put on his body. Standing behind the crown prince, Chief Caluster Guard remembered the reason for the acquisition. "Major Hoffman was awarded a Crown Medal for his efforts to ensure the transportation of materials and the reasonable arrangement of transportation tasks in this war, which fully guaranteed the supply of ammunition to the front line."

"Congratulations, Major Hoffman."

Despite not being promoted, Major Hoffman was satisfied. "For the kingdom."

A total of one person was promoted to general, one to lieutenant general, two to major general, five to colonel, and three to lieutenant colonel. The remaining officers were awarded various medals, and Eder posed for a photo with them after the awards. Later, someone took this group photo, in which three of them became marshals, two became generals, five became lieutenant generals, and four became major generals. They all led the Romanian army in bloody battles for the country in World War I and World War.
