The minister was taken aback.
He originally thought His Majesty was on the first floor, but in fact His Majesty was on the fifth floor.
At this point, he began to understand why the Eagle Kingdom was destroyed, while the Southern Kingdom, a small country, developed better and better.
Although there are many rumors that His Majesty relies on the Lord of the Hidden City.
But... in fact, he felt that it relied more on His Majesty himself, as well as the many talented people who were willing to serve the Southern Kingdom.
"Even so, I have failed in my duties. Will Your Majesty not punish me?" the minister asked stubbornly.
In his eyes, it was one thing for His Majesty to have been prepared all along, and it was another thing for him to have failed in his duties.
If he were in the United States, he would definitely be punished.
But to his surprise, His Majesty countered, "What crime have you committed?"
"I failed in my duty and did not discover it sooner..."
"So don't do that again next time, be more careful."
"...The minister: That's it?"
Gu Mu looked at the minister, at his bewildered eyes, and sighed softly in his heart.
He can't expect everyone to be perfect. For example, the minister in front of him is stubborn and inflexible. He can't make the minister more shrewd. The minister is indeed inexperienced and not very smart, and he can't improve the minister's intelligence and experience.
All he can do is put the right people in the right positions.
If he punishes people for every little mistake they make, sooner or later he will have no one to rely on.
Moreover, by not punishing him now, he is inflicting even more psychological torment on the ministers before him than by actually punishing them, and they cannot find any fault with him.
Sure enough, the minister opened his mouth wide, his face filled with disbelief.
Finally, he knelt down and thanked them profusely: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Although Your Majesty has not punished me, I will certainly reflect on my own actions!"
The minister finally stepped down.
After this incident, the minister will surely understand that, despite the rumors that His Majesty is a tyrant.
But he was still kind to his own people.
...
military camp
At this very moment, the soldiers of the Southern Kingdom were already fully prepared and ready to go.
"Your Majesty, this time we are going to attack the Fox Kingdom. It is best to only bring the necessary supplies. After all, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Carrying heavy loads will increase the burden on the soldiers. What if we encounter a surprise attack from the enemy?" General Meng said with concern.
Although General Meng looks like a tough guy, he is actually very meticulous.
Gu Mu smiled. He had already thought of General Meng's concerns and had even made preparations for them.
"What if we had this?" A huge truck appeared behind Gu Mu.
"This..." General Meng stared wide-eyed at the rectangular object, its front end looking particularly imposing.
Especially the enormous box on its back; its capacity probably couldn't match that of hundreds of carriages.
"Your Majesty, if we fill it up, will it be able to start?" General Meng asked with concern.
If it were fully loaded, it would be an extremely heavy weight.
Will it collapse this huge box?
"No." Gu Mu's face remained calm, without the slightest worry.
These are all products created by the system based on the technology from his previous life.
He certainly knows these things very well.
Moreover, since these products are manufactured by the system, there's even less need to worry about their quality.
"You can load all the heavy supplies into these trucks; it will make the march a little easier."
Gu Mu gave the instructions.
The other truck had already been sent to the Southern Kingdom by Gu Mu. This time, the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Frontier joined forces to encircle the Fox Kingdom.
Therefore, there is only one truck in the current military camp, but there are more than 100,000 soldiers.
One truck is definitely not enough to carry all the supplies for everyone.
However, if the heaviest supplies are put into the trucks, and the soldiers only carry some lighter supplies, it can greatly reduce their burden.
The soldiers looked at the truck with some curiosity.
Seemingly afraid of breaking the thing, they hesitated to handle it for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Gu Mu casually picked up a long gun and threw it at the truck.
The spear struck the truck with a crisp sound and bounced back, leaving no mark on the truck throughout the entire process.
"It's tough and durable, use it with confidence." Gu Mu smiled, his actions undoubtedly alleviating the soldiers' concerns.
They began to systematically categorize the items that did not need to be carried around and were heavy but not large. After making the best plan, they neatly packed all those items into the truck.
Furthermore, Gu Mu had already made preparations, imitating the modern handbag by making the soldiers' bundles into a wheel shape.
In this way, the soldiers would not need to carry the burden on their shoulders; they could push it with their hands, which would undoubtedly relieve the soldiers' stress.
In particular, since soldiers need to carry guns and shields with them, this way they can temporarily put these in the crate and be equipped with weapons at any time in case of emergencies.
Because Gu Mu was dedicated to building trade routes, excavators and bulldozers never stopped operating during his time managing the northern frontier.
The trade route connecting the northern border to the southern regions has been completed.
Although they went around the Fox Kingdom,
However, there are actually several paths that lead to the Fox Kingdom.
When there is a flat road, the soldiers' pushbox is actually very practical.
The soldiers' eyes lit up when they saw the pushboxes laid out in front of them, one for each of them.
It turned out that for this march, not only were there wagons to carry their heavy supplies, but His Majesty had also prepared a cart for each person.
