Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 736

The Queen finally stepped forward to lead the cabinet to deal with this disaster with all its strength. This news was a big event for the entire Victoria.

For cabinet officials, having someone who can lead them and a backbone is better than anything else.

Before, their backbone was Perfect, who conquered everyone with her genius and made the cabinet successfully evolve into her yes-men.

Although there would be various political games between the cabinet and Perfectoct in normal times, and they performed reasonably well in daily affairs, facing the sudden snowstorm, it was completely beyond the cabinet's ability to cope with.

It’s not that they were completely scared, but all the methods they knew were completely useless in the face of this blizzard.

They tried to send people to contact other cities, but the messenger was almost frozen to death before he even left the city; they wanted to send a train as a rescue team, but found that the snow on the railway was about to bury the train...

As for the airship? There were some brave captains and sailors who tried to take off in the snowstorm, but they soon lost control of the airship. They tried to forcefully increase their altitude to break through the clouds, but they were almost frozen by the entire airship. In the end, they had to make an emergency landing to avoid the ship being destroyed and people being killed.

It was precisely because they had tried various things, but in the end they could do nothing. That was why when Perfect appeared in the cabinet, they all became yes-men who only knew how to rely on her.

After all, geniuses can indeed lead an era, not to mention someone like Perfect who can solve all the problems they have encountered before by himself.

They were already accustomed to following Perfecto's orders, and she was able to solve any problem they faced.

So, when Perfect suddenly said that he didn't care anymore, they were really panicked, as if their last straw of life was suddenly gone.

In a sense, this is also the result of Perfect's 'domestication'.

After all, Perfectok's announcement of resignation and the coup not only made everyone realize that they could not do without Perfectok, but also cleared out all those who dared to resist her.

Now Perfect has once again announced that he will no longer be involved, especially in the face of such a disaster. How can they not panic?
Last time, they almost messed up everything just in the normal state. Now, at this critical moment when they needed Perfectcot the most, she gave up on them. It was like the sky was falling.

Fortunately, this time, the queen stood up in time, and her decisiveness stabilized people's hearts to a great extent.

Determination alone is not enough. As queen, Anne can indeed stabilize the cabinet in a short period of time, but if she cannot come up with a solution to the problem and just maintains the status quo, it will not change the situation.

So things once again come back to the most critical issue, how to get Perfecto back to solve the problems they are facing now.

But before that, Queen Anne planned to use the existing information and resources at hand to try to solve the problem instead of relying on Perfect.

A key lesson she learned on the battlefield was 'never expect unknown reinforcements, and win the war with the troops you have at hand'.

So she convened a cabinet meeting again as the Queen, but this time it was Queen Anne herself who presided over the meeting. "Lord Brandelis provided the design drawings of the weather controller. How long will it take for the factory to make it?" Queen Anne put on her military uniform and acted decisively: "I need you to do everything possible to complete its manufacture in the shortest possible time, at any cost!"

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will mobilize manpower and do everything possible to complete the production in the shortest possible time!" The Minister of Industry and Commerce stood up and made a serious promise. At the same time, he also explained: "It's just that the structure of the weather controller is very complicated. Even if we have mobilized the best workers and alchemists, we can't complete it in a short time!
Among the alchemists of the Empire, perhaps only Master Sandrillon and the Regent can complete such a complex machine in a short time. We..."

"I don't want to hear these excuses! You just need to tell me how long it will take to make it?" Queen Anne scolded the Minister of Industry and Commerce with a very stern attitude, as if she was commanding the army on the battlefield.

This was also what she had thought after being 'accused' by Perfectcot.

She is indeed not good at politics. Although she has learned a lot from those old aides, she is still not mature enough.

But the words that Perfectcot said when he forced her to stand up woke her up. She needed to take responsibility and stand up to lead others. How was this different from when she was appointed commander of the army on the battlefield?
It’s just that on the battlefield she relied on swords and muskets, but now she relies on other things.

In that case, let's treat this as a war!
When she did this, she found that things that she was originally not good at dealing with suddenly became simple.

Just like during a war, it is impossible to do everything yourself, so just let trustworthy people take charge of certain aspects, and you always keep the responsible person in charge.

During a war, it is impossible for a marshal to command every soldier. The generals have their own strengths, and the marshal only needs to arrange them in suitable positions.

After understanding this, Queen Anne naturally knew what she should do.

But this also made her admire Perfectok even more, because Perfectok was the commander who could command every soldier and enable every soldier to give full play to his abilities.

This is a very terrifying ability. After all, not everyone, or no one except Perfectot, can possess such terrifying command and coordination capabilities.

Fortunately, Anne did not expect to be able to compare herself with Perfectcott. She tended to take her own approach to solving problems.

As a result, this emergency cabinet meeting took place.

And Anne also hopes that she can win this war, which she regards as a white disaster of war.

"Your Majesty, even if we ask all the factories in Langton to work as fast as possible, it will still take at least eight days to produce the weather controller. It is impossible to manufacture it in a short period of time." The Minister of Industry and Commerce gritted his teeth and reported the most extreme number.

"Eight days? No, you only have five days. Five days is the limit I can give you." Annie frowned when she heard it, and then gave orders according to her habit.
