The second prince seethed with unutterable rage, his clenched fists trembling with suppressed fury.
But what choice did he have? He could only offer a forced nod and a grateful smile. "In that case, I'll have to trouble Uncle…"
General Sun chuckled heartily, dismissing the prince's concerns with a wave of his hand. "Loyalty to the Emperor is my foremost duty! And with me overseeing recruitment personally, gathering soldiers will be a breeze. You need not worry, Your Majesty. However, the crucial support for logistics, such as rations and weapon production, still rests with the Emperor's Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Architecture, and Ministry of War. Especially rations—they must be prioritized. After all, an army marches on its stomach, as they say!"
The second prince's vision dimmed, and he felt himself on the verge of collapse.
This was too much to bear!
"Uncle, please rest assured…"
