General Liang also exclaimed, "Old Madam Gao's strategy is excellent! Vice Minister Ban, you must ensure the relocation happens. The Northwest must not be left empty; we need people, or in a few years, there will be no source of soldiers!"
Vice Minister Ban nodded, "Don't worry, General Liang. I will draft the memorandum tonight, and once the city gates open tomorrow, I will send it to the Capital!"
Saying this, he did not partake in the feast, instead pulling Magistrate Hao and General Liang aside to meticulously inquire about the relocation of the Northwest populace, the lack of residents there, and the abandonment of land.
Only by getting a clear understanding could he write the memorandum.
General Liang and the others had to endure hunger, explaining things to Vice Minister Ban for a full two hours.
