As soon as he said these words, Jin Jianren's eyes narrowed, and he scanned the faces of everyone present.
Now that he had so brazenly uttered such words, how could the generals not understand the situation? They immediately echoed his sentiments.
"General, you are brave and resourceful, possess a strong sense of righteousness, and are wholeheartedly devoted to the country and its people. This throne should rightfully belong to you!"
Despite this, Kim Tae's expression changed slightly, and a hint of panic was clearly visible in his eyes.
Putting aside the immense risks of becoming emperor, the very act of defeating the rebels was enough to make anyone uneasy.
Without the Divine Machine Battalion and without His Majesty's assistance, can we really defeat the rebels with just these people?
Kim Tae was somewhat apprehensive.
Jin Jianren keenly noticed the hint of panic in his eyes, and then turned to the crowd and said:
"Throughout history, one has had to go through a series of setbacks to achieve great things."
"But now is the best opportunity!"
"Jin Fengluan is weak and incompetent; she only knows how to run away in front of the rebels. We only need to defeat the rebels to achieve our goal in one fell swoop!"
"By suppressing the rebels with swift and decisive action, who in this world dares to disobey us?!"
"Once I ascend the throne, you will be the meritorious officials of the new dynasty!"
“You are all my good brothers, and you all have remarkable abilities. Are you only willing to be a general and not want to be a regional governor?”
Upon hearing this, many of the generals became agitated, and one said:
"I have followed the general for a long time. Now that the general is willing to take up the banner and ascend the throne, how can I not follow him!"
Immediately, others chimed in.
Kim Geon-in nodded in satisfaction and continued:
“You know me. Although I have a bit of a temper, I can still distinguish right from wrong when it comes to matters of principle.”
"The most important point is that I will never mistreat any capable person!"
"Today, those who stand here, ask yourselves honestly, which one of you hasn't received my guidance?"
"When I say these words today, it is because I consider you all my confidants, my good brothers. There is not a single outsider among those present!"
Jin Ming was so excited that her whole body trembled, and she hurriedly said:
"We are willing to pledge our loyalty to the death!"
Jin Zhao also chimed in.
Although he knew that Kim Geon-in sometimes got angry and might lose his temper, he was indeed very generous in rewarding those who had done him a great service.
Of course, most importantly, now is indeed the best time.
With the capital Jinling now unclaimed, after defeating the rebels and returning to Jinling, wouldn't it be perfectly reasonable for him to declare himself emperor and establish a new dynasty, given his status as the capital and the General of the State?
Having followed Kim Gun-in for so long, wouldn't I be able to rise to the top with him in the future?
Meritorious officials of the new dynasty!
These four big characters are enough to entice everyone!
At this moment, even Kim Tae, who was filled with fear, wavered in his resolve, and a flush appeared on his face, a look of excitement.
Seeing the generals successively express their determination, Kim Geon-in waved his hand and said in a deep voice:
"I am not like Jin Fengluan, who received the throne empty-handed. I came from the battlefield!"
"All my actions in life will be seen on the battlefield!"
"Dagan, with internal rebels and external foreign disturbances, it can be said to be on the verge of collapse!"
"but--"
"As long as I have a breath left, I will rush onto the battlefield and eliminate all enemies!"
"I think this vast land isn't big enough! It can be even bigger!"
At this point, his voice rose, his face grew increasingly red, and he spoke with great passion;
"Once I quell the internal strife, you will follow me to continue expanding our territory. Unlike Jin Fengluan, I am not content to remain in this corner of the country and hide in the capital."
"Tuyuan Kingdom, a bunch of stupid red-haired devils, deserve to die!"
"Fusang, a tiny island nation, is nothing more than an ant. It dares to try and shake my mighty dragon, Daqian! It deserves to die!"
"Wherever I point, they will follow me to conquer new territories and make Daqian stand at the pinnacle of this world!"
He stepped forward, put his arm around the shoulders of the generals, and then said:
"Brothers, to build a grand empire, I need the full support of each and every one of you!"
"When the vast territory of Dagan is boundless, you will all be able to become kings!"
"At that time, I will grant each of you a piece of land, large and fertile enough! Not only you, but your children and grandchildren will also share in this prosperous era with me!"
Upon hearing this, apart from Jin Ming, who was already trembling with excitement, the others also started shaking their hands with excitement.
At this moment, Jin Tai had no other thoughts whatsoever.
All he cared about was going into battle to kill the enemy and help the "new emperor" achieve his grand ambitions!
Undoubtedly, these words resonated with everyone, stirring a sense of pride and pride in each person.
Such a broad vision and such a magnanimous heart are what make a true Son of Heaven! A true ruler of a nation!
"Yes! We are willing to follow the general to the death!"
"May the general achieve his grand ambitions and hegemony!"
The crowd expressed their determination with great enthusiasm and high spirits.
"No, it's Your Majesty! Help Your Majesty achieve your grand ambitions!" Jin Ming suddenly exclaimed.
As Kim Gun-in's most loyal supporter, he took the initiative to change his form of address.
But Jin Jianren shook his head and said:
"No, you cannot call me Your Majesty yet."
"I, Kim Geon-in, don't want empty fame, I only want a real reputation!"
"The path I will take is one of hard work and perseverance, one that will lead me step by step to the throne, and one that will make the whole world see and submit to me!"
"This throne must be earned through my deeds, not stolen! Do you understand?"
