The army did not move, the grain and grass went first, and Adrian now understood the eight words more and more thoroughly.

Because he was getting poorer and poorer, after he used some means of transportation such as steam locomotives and tracked transporters, the improved transportation efficiency also caused his warehouse to not hoard much. Whatever Berlin sent, he would work with his men to maximize efficiency.

Pat the crumbs off his body, Adrian gulped down the hot water, and it was his lunch. In fact, his rank is far more than this standard, at least he has wine and meat to be worthy of the position of logistics chief, but Adrian doesn't care about those things at all, but thinks the bread is delicious.

With the blockade of the sea by the British Navy, the supply capacity of the Second German Reich has become a graduation question, and whether it can survive the peace talks is even more crucial.

In the face of limited supplies, Adrian and the entire logistics department worked out a hierarchy of supplies for the German Eastern Front, with the highest level being the first class and the worst being the fifth class, and Adrian's bread lunch was based on the third class level. Of course, it is really the turn of a logistics chief to be reduced to the point of eating third-class supplies, that is, the time when the front-line soldiers are hungry, but the current situation is not good.

For Adrian's supply level, the Eastern Front base camp readily agreed, and this kind of thing was not the turn of the Berlin General Staff to intervene, so Adrian's orders were quickly implemented throughout the Eastern Front. At the beginning, everyone didn't agree with it, after all, this approach was a bit redundant, and each unit wanted as much as they could, and ensuring that their subordinates were well fed was the last word. But since Adrian's executive order on supply levels, the generals no longer had an excuse to ask for a little more. How much do you want? Okay, tell me how many of you have to send you according to the current supply level, according to the amount you want, how much do you want? No! Everyone is treated equally!

Because of this incident, Adrian offended many soldiers fighting on the front line, thinking that Adrian might have filled his pockets, and complained that Adrian's letters were stacked on Hindenburg's desk, but he didn't read them.

These letters clearly say that Adrian is not well supplied, but in fact they are referring to Sang scolding Huai. Of course, the generals who fought for life and death on the front line didn't care whether he Adrian was greedy for ink or not, he just cared if his soldiers ate the best, dressed the best, and used the best, just crying, just asking, never caring if they had it.

Before the start of the Battle of Gorlice, Adrian was scolded by the generals in the north of the Eastern Front because of the problem of resource tilting, but he still ignored the fact that he carefully considered the demand letters sent by various troops before determining the actual number of distributions, and never gave more because of who wrote a few good words and talked about several layers of relationships. But what he never expected was that he offended his future brother-in-law because of his impartiality. Heinrich Georg Schell was the commander of the 27th Cavalry Division on the Eastern Front, and in order to ask for more things, he clearly stated in the demand letter that he and Dinah Eugene Sherna were related, but Adrian insisted on not giving more than one mark of things according to his own standards, but only gave less than one percent of the minimum standard, just because the war on the Northern Front was not tight at that time. This can make the distant brother-in-law angry enough, and the letters he wrote to his wife were full of anger, naming Eric Adrian by name and saying that he was ruthless and had no sense of the overall situation, etc., hoping that his wife could "speak up" at the party.

Shel's mother is Sherna's aunt, that is, his mother's sister, and this relationship is destined for Adrian to have to deal with Shel if he marries Sherna. In fact, Adrian also has a bitterness that he can't say, because if he abandons his principles because of Schelle's relationship, the impact will be that the majesty he erected on the Eastern Front will be lost, and then it will be out of control. But Scheer didn't come to his senses, because he came from a Junker aristocratic background and had not learned such ethereal words as "fairness" and "fairness".

One of Scheer's would-be relatives was so resentful, one can imagine the attitude of the other generals towards Adrian, but none of the generals in the telegram wanted Adrian to leave class, just complaining that there were too few things, which was not the duty of Hindenburg to ask for too few things.

Adrian, who was selfless and selfless, was still on official business that day, when he was summoned by the herald to Hindenburg.

When he rushed from the logistics office to the operational command post in Hindenburg, Adrian saw the legendary Augustus von Mackensen, whom he had never met. An old-fashioned Prussian skull hat, with thick hair that had turned white with age, and more medals on his chest and shoulders than Adrian could count. Adrian had only seen his black-and-white photographs and later refurbished color photographs, but he easily recognized them. Politely greeted the old man who had just been promoted to marshal.

And there were also Hindenburg, Ludendorff and others present, all of whom were at the rank of major general or above, this pomp was very large, and it seemed to be waiting for themselves, after all, there was no war anywhere now. The battle of Gorlicse has been going well so far, and after being in the final stages, both sides are on the defensive on the Austro-Hungarian border.

"Congratulations, Adrian, you're a general from now on." Hindenburg, who had stopped smiling at Adrian since returning to the Eastern Front, walked over to him with a pair of golden epaulettes on a happy face.

Adrian then realized why the general, who was usually on the front line, suddenly returned to the base camp and was still wearing a grand military uniform.

But he became a general at a young age of less than thirty? He himself was very surprised, after all, he was a second lieutenant when he was discharged, and after returning to the army, he directly jumped to the rank of colonel with a piece of paper from Hindenburg, but this was only less than half a year and he was promoted again? It's too fast, is it so easy to be a general? That's why Adrian didn't know about military affairs. In the Second German Reich, where Prussian militarism prevailed, military merit was the greatest priority, and whoever could make a military contribution would receive the greatest attention and commendation, which was also a means of encouraging front-line soldiers to work hard. Adrian, who only plays logistics in the rear, can provide the necessary material support although he does not fight desperately on the front line, which is already very rare.

Since Adrian took office, after adjustments, road expansions, regrouping of supply teams and transportation standards, so that the number of supplies has increased exponentially, he himself seems normal, but he does not know that everyone else has been shocked by his handwriting. This efficient supply greatly helped the war on the front line.

The reason why the Gorlice Breakthrough was fought so quickly and beautifully was because Adrian had made the campaign launch force fully resourced in a very short period of time. The soldiers of the German Reich, who attached great importance to logistics, certainly knew that they would have to play logistics to the extent of Adrian, and the whole Reich could not find a second person. There were complaints, but everyone admired this young man from the bottom of their hearts.

Hindenburg and Ludendorff needless to say, the relationship between the two is actually not harmonious because of the relationship between the two of them, but the two who look like each other can be surprisingly consistent in Adrian's problem, just because Adrian never hums with the two. Whatever he wanted, Adrian thought of it himself, not by making a telegram "I want XX". It's just that they don't know that Adrian actually wants to do this, but he is a pragmatic person, if he can shoot a telegram to ask for something, of course he will shoot it, but if he doesn't come something, it is a waste of time, it is better to figure it out himself.

In this regard, he has an advantage that no one else can match, who calls him also the controlling person of the Eric Group? Although the quotas are in the hands of the military, the supplier is still the Eric Group, and it is enough to bargain for some extent. After all, it was not as convenient for Hindenburg to ask for things as he was.

Kaiser Wilhelm II could ask for this Jedi veteran once, twice, but it was impossible to play like this forever, otherwise an emperor would not become a messenger?

The promotion ceremony was complicated, after all, it was not an ordinary promotion, but the rank of a general, and the traditionally conservative Prussian officers valued honor more than life.

The complicated promotion ceremony ended stumbling under everyone's guidance, in addition to the promotion to general, Adrian's vertical collar had a big blue medal, the Blue Mark Medal. This medal was not easy to come by, and Kaiser Wilhelm II withstood the pressure of Falkingham after considering the opinions of many Eastern Front generals. You must know that the Order of the Blue Mark is already the highest medal of honor, and there has never been a precedent before that the Order of the Blue Mark has been awarded directly without other military merits.

In this way, the news of promotions and decorations spread throughout the Eastern Front and even within the empire.

At that time, Adrian would not have his tail in the sky because of these two, others did not know the fate of the empire, but he knew it very well. If the Empire is ultimately victorious, it is worth all of this, but this is not the case.

The boring digital days were not intended to allow Adrian to survive the rest of the days without any danger, and a crisis was quietly approaching on paper.
