As boxes of canned food were moved to the front of the tent, the atmosphere around them dropped to freezing point.
Even though the sun was high up in the sky, everyone could only feel the coldness and killing intent.
"How many boxes have you recovered?" Xu Da suddenly said.
The comptroller hurriedly said,"
"General, there are already four thousand boxes.”
Xu Da's expression was cold as he continued to close his eyes to rest.
There were still 1,000 boxes.
He continued to let the fine dog search.
Plop!
Finally, someone could not hold on any longer. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"General, this general is guilty. This general was confused for a moment. Please spare my life!”
During the process of waiting, not only was he searching, but he was also putting pressure on these people, causing their mental defenses to collapse.
This was also one of Xu Da's goals.
Xu Da looked at that person and waved his hand. Immediately, someone went up to take him down and brought him in front of Xu Da.
With someone starting this conversation, the psychological defenses of the others crumbled even more. As the chests behind them were found bit by bit, more and more generals knelt down and begged for mercy.
It did not mean that even if the box was found, it would not be traced back to them.
On the contrary, every box was actually guarded by someone. Anyone could pry open the mouth of a guard and find out who had taken these boxes for themselves.
Therefore, when these generals saw that the chest had been found, they already knew that they were doomed.
These generals who were kneeling and begging for mercy were brought before Xu Da one by one and tied up with ropes.
Xu Da did not give the order to execute him.
He was still waiting!
At this moment, they had already found more than 4,500 boxes of canned food through the military dogs. The remaining 500 boxes could not be found.
After interrogation, they found out that 500 boxes of canned food had been eaten.
Xu Da's expression was gloomy as he stared at the group of generals. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger.
"How dare you steal military supplies!”
"Men, detain them and execute them!”
"General, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
"General, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
"General, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
The generals who had pocketed the canned food kowtowed and begged for mercy. Xu Da turned a deaf ear to them and glanced at the other generals. He said coldly,
"These cans are military supplies. Anyone who dares to steal them, even if it's just a can, will be executed.”
The generals trembled in fear!
After settling the matters here, Xu Da stood up and left.
Those corrupt generals were escorted to the drill ground and their heads fell to the ground in front of the soldiers.
Blood flowed all over the ground.
Xu Da's decisiveness in killing intimidated those who had second thoughts about the canned food. He himself also gave the strictest military order:
Unless it was issued by the army, anyone who dared to use canned food privately would be killed without mercy!
Xu Da also ordered the dog trainer to lead the military dog to patrol the warehouse where the canned food was stored every day.
Anyone who stole it would be killed on the spot.
……
Stargazing Tower.
"Alright, do you know all these functions?”Lu Ya looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Don't worry, State Preceptor. We know how to do it."”
Although it was a Porsche, in this era, there were no internet platforms, so there were not many apps.
The functions of the phone were limited to video communication, taking photos, transferring documents, and so on.
In short, it was only the function that came with the phone.
Zhu Yuanzhang carefully placed the phone in his pocket. He cherished it very much. This was a very important treasure.
Zhu Yuanzhang muttered,
"State Preceptor, do you still have this thing called a phone?”
Lu Ya glanced at him and nodded."
"Yes, many, many!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up and he was about to speak.
However, Lu Ya interrupted him and shook his head."
"Chongba, you don't have to say anything. I know what you want to say. The phone is currently only used between the two of us. Since you've learned how to use it, you should know how powerful it is.”
Lu Ya said solemnly,"
" To be able to communicate in real-time from thousands of miles away, it would indeed be a great weapon if it was used in the military. It could allow the commander to oversee the army and command the army's actions from afar, but…"
Lu Ya paused for a moment before continuing,"
"If this thing falls into the hands of the enemy, do you know how big of a problem it will cause?”
"Not to mention enemies, just the rebels within Great Ming would also be a great threat to Great Ming if they were to obtain them.”
Zhu Yuanzhang's face stiffened. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said,
"The state preceptor is right, we were lacking in consideration.”
Lu Ya patted him on the shoulder and smiled."
"Don't worry, there will be a day when the telephone will be popularized. It just needs to be done step by step.”
After the two of them discussed for a while, Lu Ya told Zhu Yuanzhang about the cabinet. To establish a cabinet, they first had to abolish the prime minister and the three provinces above the six ministries.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and said,
"I plan to abolish the three provinces first. As for the Prime Minister, I can keep him for the time being and reduce his power step by step.”
"The state preceptor said that the cabinet only has the right to make suggestions and not the right to make decisions. Let's reduce the prime minister's power to only have the right to make suggestions and not the right to make decisions. This way, we can retain the prime minister system and establish the cabinet legitimately without causing too much backlash.”
Lu Ya smiled.
"You want to boil a frog in warm water?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning was obvious. Since he knew the role of the cabinet, there was no need to abolish the Prime Minister.
As long as the Prime Minister's power was slowly reduced, he would eventually become like the chief of the cabinet.
This way, the Prime Minister would still be retained and the cabinet system could be smoothly implemented.
It was nothing more than changing the name of the chief assistant to the prime minister.
Under the cabinet system, whether it was the prime minister or the chief assistant, their nature was the same.
