In the silent palace where not a single voice was heard, the atmosphere, though utterly quiet, was not heavy. On the contrary, in the eyes of the emperor and the ministers, there was a sense of expectation.
Jun Wu Xiao did not let them wait long and spoke up:
"If I am not mistaken, there are many tasks that require strong people, aren't there?"
As everyone listened, their minds began to whirl, and the emperor, as if struck by a thought, he said:
"What you mean is that we should not disband the army but rather assign them to different tasks. Tasks that require physical strength."
Jun Wu Xiao nodded in satisfaction at this thought, and he elaborated:
"Exactly, that's what I meant to say. The army is both strong and disciplined. To be honest, they could be considered the finest workforce. Furthermore, who says the army can only fight? On the battlefield, they need food to survive. Thus, training them to become excellent farmers is not an issue at all.
