Humble?

Losing face?

None of this matters anymore.

Ji Chuan thought that he could only do this for the sake of Wei. What face and dignity were worthless in the face of the country's life and death.

The failure of this war made him realize that he was not a martial emperor at all, and it also gave him a deep sense of powerlessness.

Is it wrong to join forces with Liang Guo to attack Daning?

Not only is it correct, it is also a very correct choice.

Seeing that Daning is becoming more and more prosperous day by day, and can build weapons such as artillery. Emperor Daning is wise and powerful, and the most important thing is that he is still very young.

This is the biggest threat.

Ten years, twenty years... How strong will Daning be?

At that time, there will be no resistance against Daning. Daning is an eagle and must be killed before it can grow.

Didn’t Emperor Wu of Liang understand that he was resorting to militarism?

But what can be done?

If you try hard now, you still have a chance, but in a few years you will no longer be your opponent.

Himekawa didn't think so, so he bet on the fate of the country and gave everything he had, spending all the country's savings and food reserves, just for this battle!

This is a must-win battle!

This is not because of his arrogance, but because of the facts.

The two kingdoms of Wei and Liang spent everything they had, but at the same time there were attacks from foreign tribes from the Western Regions, and there were also attacks from the Northern Yi!

It can be expected that Daning will be defeated under the attack from all directions.

But what’s the result?

The Allied forces were defeated, Emperor Wu of Liang died in the battle, and all the foreign races in the Western Regions were wiped out. Emperor Yuan Wu has personally gone to the barbarians, believing that the troubles caused by the Northern Yi will be solved...

Daning has weathered this crisis.

It's really unbelievable.

We failed to eliminate Daning this time, and there will be no chance in the future.

Himekawa has seen the situation clearly, and all his previous thoughts have receded like the tide.

In this continental struggle for hegemony, Wei has lost its qualifications. I believe that after this, Daning will become more and more powerful, so powerful that even Wei needs to look up to it. Before that, we must give in, survive in the cracks, and pray for Daning.

I can let it go once.

As for what happens in the future, who knows what it will be like?

Himekawa's thoughts were racing.

I have to say that he has become more mature after experiencing this war.

When he first came to the throne, he was full of energy and unstoppable energy, but now his edges seem to have been smoothed. Although he has no edges, he has considered things more thoughtfully.

"Have all the national treasury funds been released?"

"Report to Your Majesty, they are all released..."

Song Taiping said: "Exchanging the national treasury silver for treasure certificates, the losses are not small."

My head was bruised, and it was so bloody that I realized it hurt.

The result of the crazy issuance of Wei Baoguan was the complete collapse of the entire Wei currency system. It was not until this time that Ji Chuan realized that paper was paper and he was not money.

But why is Daning Baobao money?

After so many years, it is still strong and has even begun to circulate in Wei State.

When there was a problem with Dawei Baobao, Daning Baobao appeared on the market. Of course, it was Daning who was behind this, but it was also the people's choice, and even many rich and aristocratic people were doing this.

Dawei Baobao has become waste paper and has no purchasing power at all, but currency is always needed, so Daning Baobao has become the replacement for Dawei Baobao.

This is actually an economic crisis, but Himekawa doesn't understand it, let alone how to solve it.

At this time, some businessmen appeared who were willing to recycle these Dawei treasure coupons.

To be precise, it is exchange.

Use Daning treasure banknotes to exchange for Dawei treasure coupons.

For the same banknotes, Dawei Baoqian preceded them, and Daning Baoqian was not trusted by others. However, after a period of time, Daning Baoqian actually began to circulate.

This incident attracted the attention of the imperial court and was quickly reported to Himekawa.

Himekawa was extremely vigilant after hearing this and immediately rushed back from the front line.

Isn't this his original intention of issuing the Great Wei Baoguan?

He wanted the Great Wei Baoguan to be circulated in the world, not only in Wei, but also in Daning and Liang. The currency used was the Great Wei Baoguan, in order to achieve the purpose of controlling these countries.

But now Daning has started to do this!

Although Himekawa doesn’t know what to do?

But he knew that this was Daning's conspiracy, and maybe he made a mistake when he started to imitate Daning's Baochao and make Dawei's Baoqian!

He found the reason at the cost of a huge disaster for the country.

Dawei Baoguan has no value, it is currency only when it is linked to gold and silver.

It is a pity that the Wei Baoguan was still linked to gold and silver when it was first issued, but later it was printed and issued at will. In other words, too much money was attracted, and then it became worthless.

I woke up, but it was a little late, and it was very difficult to recover.

Ji Chuan began to think about returning to the original use of silver and two copper coins, and then used the silver in the national treasury to redeem the Great Wei Treasure Notes.

But what is the use of these waste papers that the court wants?

Won’t the losses be huge this time?

Listening to Song Taiping's report, Ji Chuan shook his head and said: "Compared to the suffering people, what is this?"

"Have all my internal funds been released?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the internal funds are already empty."

The chief eunuch beside Himekawa thought to himself, Your Majesty really worked hard to save the market.

"Does it work now?"

"Of course it's useful, but..."

Seeing Song Taiping hesitate, Ji Chuan said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me. What are you afraid of?"

Song Taiping is an old minister, so Ji Chuan talks to him more casually.

"The imperial court opened its treasury and exchanged the deposited silver for the Great Wei Treasure Notes. In fact, not many of them were exchanged into the hands of the common people..."

Hearing this, Ji Chuan frowned and said, "Did he be robbed by those powerful and influential families?"

"yes!"

Song Taiping's expression was calm, and it didn't mean that something like this happened.

When promoting the Great Wei Treasure Coupons earlier, His Majesty was very tough and put a knife on the necks of these people to make them exchange them.

At first, there was nothing wrong with the Dawei Baoguan, but as time went by, it became less and less valuable, and eventually it became useless paper. These powerful people wanted to have a large number of Dawei Baoguan in their homes to become useless paper.

At that time, many people could not accept this fact and fainted.

Some families have lost their property for several generations. How can they accept it?

Now that there is an opportunity to convert this waste paper into money, why not rush for it?

Not to mention others, Song Taiping also used power for personal gain in this matter.

Himekawa also understood in an instant.

These silver coins are owned by a few powerful people, and only a small part of them are actually circulated in the market for transactions. In fact, they have not really changed.

"The country has reached this point, but there are still people poaching behind my back to spread my will..."

Himekawa looked angry, but when he mentioned the decree, he paused, and after a while he sighed.

"Forget it, wait until I come back from Daning."

The country is already in chaos. If the situation in the government continues to be turbulent, he, the emperor, will be done.
