　　 After Edel established the automobile industry, he discussed with the chief of staff of Puleshan about the plan to switch to automobile transportation in logistics. After the two researched, they found that replacing logistical horses with cars had an advantage in maintenance costs, and horses were too edible. Moreover, the transportation distance can also be increased. A horse can travel up to 40 kilometers in a day, and a person can travel within 100 kilometers. Horses are very delicate creatures. They must be cleaned during transportation, and continuous marching can cause serious damage to horses and cause serious loss of fat.

　　The car does not have the above problems. In theory, a car can walk 200 kilometers a day without any major problems. According to the current car standards, it can be put on the road after a simple repair. Moreover, a large number of artillery, ammunition, machine guns, and all kinds of large pieces for logistics can be taken away by cars.

　　 It is calculated that a division’s vehicle needs to reach 800 vehicles to achieve rapid maneuvering. The maneuvering here refers to 60 kilometers per day. Compared with the current European powers’ marching speed of 30-40 kilometers, it is considered a fast force. In this way, the national army plus a few heavy artillery regiments would require 15,000 vehicles. According to the agreement between Edel and Ford, the cost of producing a truck is now estimated to be around 200 pounds, and the assembly line is also reduced to 150 pounds at most. This is a cost that is higher than the cost of reorganization. Edel and Prieshan were silent when they saw their calculated cost.

“His Royal Highness, this is something that the government will never agree to, and the country does not have such large financial resources.” Puleshan took the lead in relying, “I know that it can only be revised, and a division can be built first. The rest can only wait first, and this has to wait for the finances. It can be done if you get better.” Edel also had to give up this plan.

After returning to the palace, the chief guard came to Edel, “His Royal Highness has heard from the United Kingdom that they have built a new type of warship with a uniform type of heavy artillery, capable of running at a speed of 21 knots.” Edel immediately thought of this when he heard it. It is a dreadnought ship, and it seems that the era of the great artillery ship has begun. The impact on Romania’s navy will not be too great, but the impact on the situation will be too great. World War I cannot be avoided. What Romania has to do now is to strengthen itself in order to sell a good price.

　　 I feel that Edel, who doesn’t wait for me, can only watch this big country game in Romania. After the British completed the construction of the Dreadnought-class battleship, Germany, France, the United States and other major countries have expressed their follow-up. Britain’s main opponent, the Kaiser, announced that the Nassau-class will also switch to a fearless design. The level is a template. Russia now says that it has no money and will follow up when its finances improve. France is studying the funding for the construction of the Dreadnought class warship. Japan said that I would buy it back in the UK for research. Italy and Austro-Hungary said that you build me first and then take a look.

　　 The disputes caused by the appearance of the dreadnought are raging in the international community, and Edel is dazzled. At this time, the chief of the guard told His Royal Highness that the first phase of the arsenal had been completed. The military problem that Edel is most concerned about can be partially alleviated, and His Royal Highness decided to go to the arsenal to have a look.

　　 The next day Edel came to the arsenal on the outskirts of Bucharest. Accompanied by the factory director Valisia, he visited the completed plant. The factory manager Varisia studied economics in Germany and later helped his father manage the family’s small arsenal. He had a good idea of ​​controlling costs and increasing production. Later, Edel borrowed money to build a military factory in Germany. He merged several small domestic factories and found that Valisia was doing quite well, so he appointed Valisia to manage this large military factory. .

“His Royal Highness is the main **** and gun body of the timber workshop.” Edel looked at the timber workshop without a trace of beauty, just like the Chinese architecture in the 1950s. They are all brick and tile structures, and the wires are like spiders in the air. The net was pulling indiscriminately. “Take me to the assembly workshop.” Edel felt a little bored and said, Valicia took Edel to the assembly workshop and watched the workers assemble the parts into a rifle.

Edel asked about the topic of greatest concern, “What is the output now.” “Now because the workers are newly trained, the output is not high. The limit is now to be able to achieve 150 rifles a day.” Edel heard Valicia’s explanation. Speaking later. “Now you need to train more workers so that they can master the job as quickly as possible. By the way, what about the artillery output now?”

　　 Facing Edel’s question, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Valicia answered with a little embarrassment. “Now the heavy artillery workshop is still debugging, the worker requirements are relatively high, and the training has not been completed. The 75 artillery can now produce 8 guns a month. This is also the result of the unskilled workers. The 105 light howitzer is now due to the poor mastery of the workers. We have never made 100-caliber artillery, and the main rifled rifled guns are still people sent by Germany. Our workers can only do it. Now we can only produce two or three guns in one month. 150 and 210 are still being trained and the workers are not producing. .”

　　 Hearing Valicia’s answer, Edel thinks that it is impossible for the arsenal to reach the expected output without two or three years of hard work. “What about the output of machine guns now?” Edel asked. Seeing that the crown prince cares about output, Varisia also said everything he knew. “His Royal Highness, we can produce 60 sets of Madsen machine guns in January, 30 sets of Maxine machine guns a month, 7.92 rifle ammunition can now achieve 3 million rounds a month, and machine gun ammunition can achieve 3.5 million rounds a month. All kinds of shells can reach 1,000 tons a month.”

　　 After hearing Valisia’s answer, Edel felt that the production of ammunition was still insufficient, and the crown prince knew that ammunition was more complicated than military. In addition to encouraging Valisia to train workers as soon as possible, the introduction of an ammunition production line can also be considered. But now the government’s finances are indeed too poor and there is no money to do other things. Thinking of this, Edel also has a rogue face. For the small country of Romania, the financial situation has never been good, and the money-making crown prince said that I would spend money. And with regard to the construction of the country, the crown prince who was a writer on the street in his previous life said that I would only say.

　　 The PS in this chapter is quite depressed, and his head is going to be big. I want to carefully analyze the development of the follow-up plot.
