Chapter 1718-The situation is serious

an, who was still unconscious. Shen Sheng asked the doctor, "what's the situation""your Highness, your Highness, the queen fainted after being stimulated, but she also suffered some internal injuries...Chapter 1718 the situation is serious.

it's just that Li Chen had plenty of money on hand at that time, and the issuance of treasury bonds and bank deposits improved day by day. Who could have known that things would change so quickly now, once the money is tight, Jin Jun's 300,000 mouths have become a huge burden.

Li Chen asked: "in terms of the army's current reserves, how long can it last"

"Seven days"

Wu Jingcang obviously came prepared, and he immediately replied, "if you save a little, you can barely last until the 9th or even the 10th, but no more than the 12th at most."

seeing Li Chen frowning, Wu Jingcaang encouraged him to say, "if you can cut down the food and forage supplies on the Jin side, you can at least double the time."

"I'm glad you figured it out."

Li Chen glared at Wu Jingcang and said angrily, "if you ask people to help at home, they will not say if they give their own tools, and they won't even give people a meal."

"Don't mention this. With 300, 000 mouths or at least 400000 horses, the daily consumption is astronomical. Where do you ask them to solve this problem if they can't solve it, they will cause chaos. This is the land of Daqin. These 300000 Jin troops are hungry and eager to do anything, and this is not desirable."

Wu Jingcang is not discouraged. He knows better than anyone that it is impossible to cut down 300000 of Jin Jun's rations, which is tantamount to killing the goose that lays the golden eggs and digging his own grave. The reason for mentioning this is to lay the groundwork for his follow-up words.

he got up slightly, took out an official letter and said, "your Highness, look at this."

Li Chen took a glance at the official letter, but glanced over it, then sneered, "King Ning's own fat oil, he even had the nerve to ask me for 150000 troops and horses for food and forage. He also said that he was sympathetic to the difficulties of the court in transporting and purchasing, and asked the court to convert all these food and forage into cash to him, so as to have his mother's dream of a thousand years."

isn't that your Royal Highness's grandma

Wu Jingcang had a strange expression, but he held back a word.

"this official letter doesn't come early or late, but when it comes at this time, there seems to be some wind that it can't be suppressed."

Li Chen casually threw away the official letter and said to Wu Jingcang, "there is indeed a problem with the imperial court. The treasury was empty. After a few years of natural disasters, the imperial court was almost hollowed out, and even the salaries of the officials could not be paid out. The reason why I was able to use the money to fight this war was that I set up a bank, absorbed the deposits of the people all over the world, and issued treasury bonds."

although Wu Jingcang is far from the border, he knows both of these two things.

he said: "your Highness has found another way, and the wonderful plan is really amazing."

"applauding"

Li Chen laughed at himself: "now I'm afraid a lot of people are clapping the table and laughing."

"the bank is now suffering from a run, and the continued issuance of treasury bonds has also encountered problems. In short, the money of the bank, neither the court nor mine, belongs to the people and depositors all over the world, but I have withdrawn all this money, and now those people and depositors are encouraged by willing people to rush to take out the money one by one."

"but the bank has run out of money. I spent tens of millions of taels of silver on this battle. How can I return the money to them"

although Wu Jingcang specializes in the military field, even the most ordinary people with no economic knowledge have common sense and immediately understand how great a crisis it will be if something like this happens.
