To be honest, although I don't know the historical results, Edward wanted to support the Catholic sect because of the rise of the Bourbon family and the fact that the state religion of France was still Catholic.

After all, the Duke of Guise, the leader of the Catholic sect, is the uncle of his own queen Mary, and there is still a relationship.

However, the nature of the United Kingdom forced Edward to support the Huguenots, the hated Calvinists.

Many people forget that the United Kingdom is a Protestant country, and the state religion is Anglicanism, which is not completely reformed, but it is indeed a Protestant.

At this time, England was, to put it mildly, a place that Europeans longed for after the founding of the United States in the future, a country of lighthouses.

It's just that the United States is the main lighthouse, while Britain is the lighthouse of Protestantism.

All the Protestants targeted England, and the constant propaganda and revolution was too great for England to raise its international standing.

What's more, Henry VIII shamelessly admitted that he was a lighthouse nation, and shamelessly hyped it.

After so long, not only foreigners believed, but also many natives believed it.

In this way, in the eyes of Europeans, Britain and Protestants are equated, and their international status has been greatly improved by their religious status.

So, it doesn't matter if Britain and Spain form an alliance against France, anyway, France is a Catholic country, and Protestants have nothing wrong with dealing with Catholicism.

But at this time, if you support Catholicism, it will cause the collapse of identity.

That is, the relationship with the personality of the star, the United Kingdom is a Protestant country.

In the 16th century, when religion still dominated people's clothing, food, shelter and transportation, it was necessary to be cautious about this religious persona.

"This time, we support the Huguenots, and the number of troops sent is up to 10,000, so let's discuss the preparations!"

After dropping a sentence to set the tone for this discussion, His Majesty the King will not speak again.

Next, everyone in the meeting began to discuss the preparations for war.

A series of discussions were conducted on the recruitment of militia, the preparation of weapons and equipment for reserve soldiers, food, clothing, horses, the combat commander, and the number of troops that had been dispatched.

Finally, an hour passed, and every detail of the war had its own person in charge.

For example, the Earl of Argyle, the consul of Scotland, was required to recruit highland warriors, supply wool, supply horses, and other tasks.

In this way, the preparations for war are planned, then everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I wonder how much war preparation the coalition government can provide!"

Looking at William, who was discussing non-stop and sweating on his forehead. Sercy, Edward asked naturally.

"This, Your Majesty!" William. Sersi hurriedly lowered his head, "Your Excellency the Chancellor of the Exchequer is familiar with this!" ”

Edward looked at the Chancellor of the Exchequer who suddenly became nervous on the side, looked at his bulging belly, and asked:

"Sir Anthony, how much can the Coalition Government provide for the war at the moment?"

Basically, every cabinet member gets a knighthood, and that's already an unwritten rule.

So, theoretically speaking, the ruling class of the kingdom is all aristocrats.

After speaking, he looked at Sir Anthony's belly again, and thought to himself: The position of Chancellor of the Exchequer is really very supportive, but in a few years, his stomach and body are full of breathing, and it seems that he is not less greedy!

"Your Majesty, after the development of the kingdom's commerce in the past few years, the kingdom's finances are a little more relaxed, except for paying off the debts, there are only 100,000 pounds left!" Sir Anthony glanced at His Majesty the King, and when he noticed his playful eyes, he immediately changed his words:

"However, this year's kingdom's financial revenue of 300,000 pounds has just arrived, and some unnecessary budget cuts can be more than 100,000 pounds!"

"So, Your Majesty, the Coalition Government can give up two hundred thousand pounds as a war budget!"

Hearing this number, Edward nodded, and looked at the other local governors.

Hearing this, everyone didn't know that they were not only here to release the task, but also to bleed, and everyone's hearts ached.

"Your Majesty, England can contribute 100,000 pounds as a war budget!" William. Selsi stiffened his head under the cannibalistic gaze of the other three and said.

Edward nodded slightly.

See this, the Welsh ruling farris. Alexander stood up helplessly and said, "Wales can provide fifty thousand pounds!" ”

"Scotland can offer fifty thousand pounds!"

"Ireland can provide twenty thousand pounds!"

"Very good, the royal family contributed 500,000 pounds this time, plus 420,000 pounds, that is 920,000 pounds! If nothing else, it's enough for two years of military spending! ”

His Majesty Edward stood up, looked at these people, and said.

The other ministers looked surprised, they didn't expect that the royal family was so rich.

Seeing this, Edward smiled faintly, a rich king is the most confident in speaking.

"Sir Anthony!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"This year, the war tax will not be collected, let's wait until next year!"

Edward said something that the kings of the past did not dare to say, and when he saw the surprised expressions of the ministers, he felt very majestic and domineering in his heart.

To be rich is to be capricious.

"Beginning today, the War Preparatory Group was set up to meet the Cabinet of Prime Minister William Brown. Sersi is the leader, and the others join in to get ready for this Kingdom Operation! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Everyone hurriedly got up and bent down and saluted.

After the meeting, the merchants of the whole of London went crazy.

Garment factories, boot factories, coat and hat factories, sabre factories, grain merchants, wine merchants, and even lumber factories all began lobbying work.

10,000 people in logistics, what a big number!

Even if it is a button on 10,000 people, after mass production, the profit obtained is intoxicating.

With such a great opportunity, how could so many businessmen give it up!

Money, beautiful women, residences, horses, as long as you need them, will be delivered to your mansion in a steady stream.

In the past few days, the people in the preparatory team have felt unprecedented enthusiasm, and many people have chosen to fall.

In this regard, His Majesty the King is indifferent, as long as the goods are not too inferior, anyway, in the current world, the quality of goods is almost the same, who buys is not buying, let these people make some money!

Anyway, the weapons and equipment are all forged by the Royal Weapons Bureau, so as not to interfere with the victory of the war.

Madrid, Spain.

With the official relocation of the administrative center to Madrid, the city began to grow rapidly, with a booming population and a thriving market.

The newly established royal palace is the focus of people's discussion, and what ministers have fallen out of favor and which of your Excellency have been greened are all popular contents.

Today, news came from the palace that His Majesty, six months after declaring the court bankrupt, had suddenly repaid part of the loan and had recklessly borrowed large sums of money from the Dutch and Genoese.
