The Emperor has adopted a forgiving attitude, not demanding the return of the excess military funds, only requiring each army to replenish their forces next year.
Who would dare say they couldn't do it?
The Left General was the first to express his stance: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty. After today, I will immediately recruit new soldiers. In a year, I will ensure Your Majesty sees a full complement of fifty thousand elite soldiers."
Unwilling to fall behind, Generals Sima, Song, and Bao also said in unison, "Please grant us one year as well, Your Majesty."
"After I return, I will immediately recruit new soldiers to fill the vacancies. Furthermore, I'll ensure they undergo rigorous training to form an elite force."
