Eder couldn't say anything different about the formation of this infantry division, after all, he didn't know much about the military. And Fereit obviously knew this, so he explained on the side.

"Your Majesty, the main purpose of this change to the infantry division is to enhance the offensive and defensive capabilities of the infantry division. With the development of military industrial enterprises in various countries, new equipment of the armies of various countries will also be put into use one after another in the future. Take our neighbor Soviet Union as an example, there was a very big gap between the combat capability of its army and China during World War I. If it were not for its huge population and mobilization capacity, its military strength would not be higher than ours.

By the time of the Soviet-Polish War, its military capabilities had been significantly improved. By the time of the war with our country a few years ago, the combat capability of the infantry units of the Soviet army was not much lower than that of our country. If it weren't for the fact that China gradually shifted its combat system to armored warfare at that time, this war might have fallen into a protracted war. And after the defeat in this war, the Soviet Union formed three armored armies in one go, which was a big challenge for our country. ”

Fereitt said that Eder also knew something. After the defeat in the local war, the Soviet Union also recognized the role of tanks and expanded the establishment of three mechanized armies in one go.

Each mechanized corps has 1 T-26 mechanized brigade, 1 tank regiment (equipped with BT tanks), 1 infantry brigade and troops directly under the army, with a total strength of about 25,000 people and about 1,000 tanks of various types. It can be said that it shows the strong industrial power of the Soviet Union.

Moreover, the Soviet Union also developed the T-28 medium tank for the Romanian Jackal tank. The tank weighs 25.2 tons in combat and is armed with a 16.5x caliber short-barreled 76.2 mm gun. There is one 7.62 mm machine gun on the right side of the main gun, and a 7.62 mm machine gun is mounted on the rear of the main pylon.

Its hull had 30 mm frontal armor and 20 mm on the sides and back. The turret had 50 mm frontal armor and 20 mm on the sides and rear. The power is 400 hp m - 17T gasoline engine, the maximum speed is 45 km / h, and the maximum range is 220 km.

And the tank was influenced by the Romanian Jackal tank, which did not have a multi-turret design, as in the original history, but also a single-turret design. Responsibly speaking, the T28 tank is enough to compete with the Jackal tank.

However, the gap with Romania's newly developed R20 medium tank is huge, and even the R10 light tank can compete with it.

Of course, this is a bit far, but the meaning of Admiral Fereit is obvious: in the future, Romania must have a qualitative advantage in the face of the Soviet army, the great enemy of Romania.

Even after the annexation of Bulgaria, Romania had a population of just over 40 million, nearly four times as many as the Soviet Union's population of more than 150 million. Coupled with the Soviet Union's superior mobilization capabilities, Romania had to guarantee absolute superiority in the quality of the army.

And Eder was also well aware of this, so after carefully looking at the formation of the infantry division, he asked. "How much should it cost to establish such a division?"

"If the division is reorganized at present, its cost should be around 21 million lei, mainly for the purchase of various weapons and personnel. Of course, if it is a newly formed unit, then its cost should be around 65 million lei, because personnel and weapons and equipment need to be newly purchased. ”

The gap between the army and the navy can be seen from here, and a battleship of the navy can be organized into four infantry divisions, which is worthy of being an aristocratic army.

As for motorized infantry divisions, mechanized infantry divisions, and armored divisions, they are more expensive, especially the price of armored divisions requires hundreds of millions of lei.

Eder, on the other hand, remained silent after hearing Fereitt's words, and continued to flip through the rest of the contents. Later there is also about the formation of motorized rifle divisions.

This kind of motorized infantry division, which can cooperate with the armored division to make up for the lack of infantry, appeared on the battlefield for the first time in an emergency manner in the local war in Luosu, and its excellent performance made the military pay attention to it after the war. In order to better cooperate with the operations of the armored divisions, the General Staff Headquarters selected several units to carry out motorized experiments in view of this situation. And according to the results of the exercise, the motorized establishment was finally confirmed.

And in the plan that Eder looked, there was a detailed description of the preparation of Romanian motorized drivers.
