All the military generals present were united in their indignation. Only they knew that a few short sentences could never express the sacrifices of the soldiers on the border.
Xu Zhiwen also knew his words had been inappropriate, but now that they were out, he was too proud to admit his mistake.
The Minister of the Ministry of History, Yu Ligao, stroked his beard. "Let's not get sidetracked. The priority now is to stabilize the border as quickly as possible. Otherwise, it will only lead to greater trouble."
Everyone understood that an unstable region meant great uncertainty.
"Mr. Yu, in your opinion, is there a suitable candidate?" All eyes turned to the Ministry of Personnel. After all, they were responsible for selecting and appointing officials.
Yu Ligao said, "In the past, I often appointed officials without needing the agreement of you gentlemen. So now, why don't you reach a conclusion first?"
