    ??Here in the Jinluan Hall of the Imperial Palace in the capital, Emperor Hongzhi and all the civil and military officials were attending the morning meeting to discuss the war with the Tatars.

    ¡°Your Majesty, we don¡¯t have enough money~¡±

    Zhou Jing reported to Emperor Hongzhi with a dark face that five hundred thousand taels of silver seemed like a lot, but when he actually spent it on fighting, he discovered that the five hundred thousand taels of silver were really just like water.  There is no more, but at this time the three-way army has been activated, and the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, which means that more money must be invested.

    "Obviously, this time, even if Zhou Jing no longer wants to take out the treasury's pocket, he must come up with some, but the bulk still has to come from Emperor Hongzhi.

    "What?"

    "The five hundred thousand taels of silver are gone?"

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, opened his eyes wide and asked.

    "Yes, Your Majesty, all of them have been used. The three armies total 300,000. According to the rules, the amount of money for this army alone is not enough, not to mention the production of weapons, armor, etc."

    "Five hundred thousand taels of silver is simply not enough."

    Zhou Jing said helplessly, once a war breaks out, gold will be worth ten thousand taels. Since ancient times, wars have been extremely wasteful of money.

    "If it's not enough, I can use another one million taels from my own funds."

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, his face turned ugly. He had already invested 500,000 taels of silver, and it was impossible to say that he would pull it off now, so he gritted his teeth and took out another one million taels of silver.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty~"

    When all the ministers heard this, they immediately said in unison.

    "Your Majesty, this is the latest Tomorrow Morning Post~"

    At this time, a small yellow gate hurriedly came to the side of Jinluan Hall, handed a newspaper to Xiao Jing, and whispered something in his ear. Xiao Jing's eyes lit up slightly, and he hurriedly took the newspaper to Emperor Hongzhi.  The side said.

    Originally, such a trivial matter as the Ming Dynasty Morning Post was not worth talking about in such an important place, but the matter published in the newspaper was too important, so he had to report it to Emperor Hongzhi now.

    Emperor Hongzhi took the newspaper and read it carefully, while the ministers below looked at each other one by one, all full of curiosity. What kind of trouble did the Mingming Morning News have made? It actually caused trouble in the Jinluan Palace.

    "Okay~ Ming Dynasty will win!"

    Emperor Hongzhi read it very quickly, and then he couldn't help but stand up excitedly.

    When the ministers saw Emperor Hongzhi's excited expression, they immediately became more curious about what happened to make Emperor Hongzhi so happy, and even shouted out that the Ming Dynasty would win.

    To be honest, the ministers in the DPRK are basically not optimistic about this battle. Everyone thinks that this battle may be lost, and it is very likely that it will be lost miserably, and it may even shake the country of Ming Dynasty.

    Even Emperor Hongzhi actually had no confidence in his heart, but now he shouted that the Ming Dynasty must win, which made everyone even more curious.

    "Xiao Jing, read the contents of the newspaper to everyone~"

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at the curious eyes of everyone, smiled and said to Xie Jin. At this time, he was also full of confidence, feeling that the Ming Dynasty would win this battle.

    "Yes~"

    Xiao Jing took the newspaper respectfully, cleared his throat slightly and started reading.

    ¡°In order to support the frontline fight against the Tatars, the Prince of the Ming Dynasty launched a fundraiser from the entire Ming Dynasty. Those who have money will contribute money, those who have the strength to contribute, and those who have the materials will provide materials. We, the Ming Dynasty, will work together and we will win this battle!¡±

    "His Royal Highness the Prince donated one million taels of silver to support the front line~"

    "Liu Jin and Liu Hanlin donated 800,000 taels of silver~"

    "Miyun Iron Works announced that it will provide 100,000 sets of armor, 100,000 weapons and 1,000 artillery pieces to the frontline soldiers of the Ming Dynasty."

    "Jingcheng Glass Factory announced a donation of one million taels of silver to support the front line~"

    "Tianjin Cement Factory announced a donation of 100,000 taels of silver and 50,000 barrels of cement to the frontline~"

    "Tianjin Port announced a donation of 100,000 taels of silver and a donation of 100,000 jins of dried salted fish to the frontline~"

    "The First Bank of Ming Dynasty announced a donation of 500,000 silver dollars~"

    ""

    As Xiao Jing read out the donations one by one, the entire Jinluan Palace became silent, and everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.

    But soon, each of these ministers was like Emperor Hongzhi. The worries in their hearts disappeared all of a sudden.The civil servants such as Li Sheng and others had to express their opinions one by one.

    To put it casually, at least tens of thousands of taels of silver must be donated, otherwise I would really feel sorry for my status. But once these tens of thousands of taels of silver are donated, everyone can't help but feel heartache. Those who have money in the family still have to donate.  It's better, it's a bit uncomfortable for people who don't have money.

    "Okay~ I, the Ming Dynasty, are united and we will win this battle!"

    As the ministers expressed their opinions one by one, the smile on Emperor Hongzhi's face became even brighter. He just made some statistics and found that the amount of silver donated by the ministers in the imperial court was almost five million taels. Such a large amount of money could be smashed.  Kill the Tatars who went south.

    "The Ming Dynasty will surely win~"

    "The Ming Dynasty will definitely win!"

    The ministers also shouted out together, whether they shouted out excitedly or out of heartache, in short, the entire Jinluan Palace was echoing with their voices. At this time, no one felt that this battle would be lost, and everyone was very confident.  , all firmly believe that the Ming Dynasty will win this battle.

    Ministers above the imperial court are expressing their opinions one after another to donate money, and donations are also in full swing in the streets and alleys of Beijing and Tianjin.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
