You can handle this challenge without gold you just have to adjust manpower and can disable barracks. It isn't perfect but will get you past the peace period, also you can purchase any that you need from the market, but if you decrease barracks your food will be less in the negative.

Just a little remark for the Designer. Having a peace period is nice as it gives time for everyone to be ready for the war, yet not having enough resources to actually last the peace period is trouble some. I can only imagine all the players with no Gold deteriorating as they wait for war as starvation sets in and army's dissipate. (Not fair for those with out Gold)
My suggestion would be to start off with something like 50,000 of each resources, or at lease enough to last until the clash! Also maybe having 2 full core provinces could subdue this problematic issue.

With all Barrack off. I'm at -116 manpower can't purchase that! I was just saying.. I got Gold so it's not a problem. but I can't see how you can get pass that with out Gold with out killing of most of your troops.
You don't have to kill most of them, but by the time you lose a few and conquer some land you should have improved your food economy so you can turn your barracks back on and gain some manpower.
The trick is not getting overrun by a clever AI in the first few days
People are easy but the AI can run circles around me if I don't pay attention
