In the Romanian Prime Minister's Office, Andrei was waiting for his leadership outside the Prime Minister's door. As a top student who has only graduated from Bucharetes University for less than a decade, his current job is simply his dream.

Yes, Andrei, who is in his early thirties, is working as a secretary for people, but he is also a secretary for the head of the government, Brettianu. In addition to his excellent personal ability, Andre's family and the prime minister also have a great relationship with him. Otherwise, apart from being the king's chief of guard, why could he get this position that is considered the second shortcut?

At this time, Andrei saw the Minister of Industry, Karaturi, coming out of the Prime Minister's office, and he immediately knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing the slightly tired Prime Minister, Andrei asked softly. "Prime Minister, Home Minister Wendiller is already waiting, do you need to ask him to wait?"

After hearing his secretary's words, Prime Minister Brettianu rubbed his cheek and spoke to him. "Andre, tell Wendyler to come in, there's a whole bunch of things to deal with with in his Ministry of Internal Affairs."

After hearing the Prime Minister's instructions, Andrei immediately went out to invite Wentil Bretianu, who also belonged to the Brettianu family, in.

Watching Andrei, who had served as his secretary for two years, leave, Prime Minister Bretianu was thinking about where his secretary would go. This is not that the prime minister is dissatisfied with his secretary, in fact, Andre has been his secretary for two years, and he is also very satisfied with his serious and close-knit performance, as the prime minister. But as the prime minister, Brettianu is preparing for a rainy day, because the Brettianu family is currently in an awkward situation.

Except for him and his cousin Wendiler, his family has a shortage of talents. In the face of the disconnection of talents, Bretianu is not unaware of the dangers of a political family, as the prime minister. Therefore, in addition to looking for excellent talents to marry, it is also a good way to use his position to make good connections, so Andrei can serve as the prime minister's secretary for two years, which is also the prime minister's recognition of him. And before that, the prime minister had already arranged for two secretaries to take up official positions, and the effect was not bad, and the prime minister intends to continue.

Andrei didn't know what the Prime Minister was thinking, but he looked at the Minister of the Interior who walked into the Prime Minister's office, and he felt in his heart that these days were different. The prime minister has been getting busier and busier since he came back from a meeting at the palace a few days ago, and he is basically busy until after ten o'clock in the evening, and he has frequently convened meetings of various cabinet members in the past few days, and the information discussed is also very secret, and even his own secretary to the prime minister can't listen to it, so Andrei feels more and more that something is going to happen.

When Andrei, who is the secretary to the prime minister, is a little confused, he is also very busy in the General Staff.

"This is completely impossible, Lupeni's defenders can't get around at all, and you haven't considered the consequences of the failure of the raid, and the follow-up troops can't keep up without transportation facilities, this plan can be killed directly."

"But we can raid Luperny's defenders, and we can take it here with great preparation, and if we succeed, we can take Petroshani without much effort, and then it will be a great benefit to attack Deva to the north to block reinforcements from Hungary, or to cooperate with Sibiu to the east."

In the operations department of the General Staff, the most elite staff officers from all over the army were arguing fiercely. Colonel Stott, who was the commissioner, watched his subordinates arguing and did not intend to bother too much. In Colonel Stott's view, the truth became clearer and clearer, and the battle plan was the same, and the battle plan was incomplete without justification, and now he was watching with sorrow as his subordinate staff officers argued and defended it.

But at this moment, a staff officer broke into the combat office, and I saw him say loudly. "You don't have to argue. As soon as the news was received, Austria-Hungary had two more divisions stationed in Transylvania, including one division in Petroshany. ”

The staff officer's words caused an uproar at the scene.

"Damn, the plan in hand is going to be redone now."

"It's over, three days of hard work have been wasted again."

At this time, a clever staff officer stepped forward and asked this staff officer who brought bad news. "And what about a division? Where are the garrisons? ”

The staff officer who was questioned spoke truthfully. "That's it...... It was stationed in Sebes. ”

"What?"

The staff officer's words caused another uproar at the scene.

"So that the Austro-Hungarian army on the southern front has 5 divisions, how can this break through quickly."

"This allows us to break through. Sebeš is 24 kilometers from Petroshani and 20 kilometers from Sibiu, and wherever we attack first, reinforcements will arrive within a day. ”

Obviously, the arrangement of the Austro-Hungarian 2nd Division made this group of staff officers a little depressed. At this time, Colonel Stott, as the division chief, needed to go on the field to cheer up his subordinates. I saw him walk up to the group of staff officers and shout. "It's all quiet."

In the face of his boss's roar, all the staff officers stopped arguing and looked at him quietly.

Colonel Stott, who was still satisfied with the effect of his words, continued to speak in an impassioned tone. "Look what you still look like, isn't it just that Austria-Hungary has reinforced two divisions. It's like the sky is falling, remember the inference we made before, the worst result is that Austria-Hungary has gathered 500,000 troops in Transylvania, and now it is less than 200,000. ”

Colonel Stott's words made the staff officers quiet, and the thought of what he had just done was indeed a little too panicked, and he didn't have the confidence to be an elite staff officer at all. Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Colonel Stott was about to return to his office to think about what to do, when Admiral Prisham's adjutant approached him. "Colonel, the Admiral has something to look for you."

"Okay, I know. Go right away. ”

Colonel Stott knew that Admiral Prishan, who was the chief of the General Staff, was looking for him, that is, to make himself come up with a plan of operation against Transylvania. Funny, Romania had already decided to declare war on the Central Powers, but the Battle of Transylvania, which used the largest number of troops, was slow to come up with a final battle plan, which made Colonel Stott, who was the chief of the operations department who formulated the battle plan, lose his face.

But he can't be blamed for this, who allowed the Austro-Hungarian forces in Transylvania to grow. From 60,000 at the beginning, it has now become 180,000 in a month and a half, and this rapid growth has made the battle plan change again and again, and Colonel Stott himself is very old-fashioned.

"Stott, how is your work lately, do you need to get other departments to cooperate?"

As soon as Colonel Stott entered the office, the chief of the general staff, Pressan, asked with a concerned face, but through the admiral's own red eyes, it could be seen that he was worried.

In the face of the Admiral's concerned inquiry, Colonel Stott knew that this was urging him to come up with a plan as soon as possible, as the chief of the war chief, he also knew the time for Romania to declare war, and now he was left with little time, and now he also needed a plan to give an explanation to the admiral.

It was then that Colonel Stott suddenly thought of a plan that had been shelved by himself. The scheme itself was very good, but one drawback was that it was so bold and whimsical that Colonel Stott put it on the shelf at first sight. However, because of the bold and careful side of it, Colonel Stott now intends to say it for His Excellency the Admiral's reference.

"I have a plan here, but it's too bold to know if the Admiral is interested."

Faced with Colonel Stott's words, Admiral Prieshan suddenly became interested. "Tell me about it."

Colonel Stott whispered to the Admiral, and Preeshan had a different expression when he heard the Colonel's words. Even if I have been the chief of the general staff for many years, I have seen many novel plans, but I am also surprised by this novel and bold plan. However, after letting go of the surprise in his heart, Preshan thought carefully and felt that the feasibility of this plan was still very high.

"This plan is still good, you can continue to do other plans while perfecting it, but the time will give you half a month at most, go and prepare."

Admiral Prishan finally said that he looked at today's wall calendar, which showed that the time was October 3rd, and that there was not much time left for Romania.
