"I understand."
Jing Ke then left.
Later, Daji received a memorial from the Ministry of War, saying that Zheng Chenggong, the Lord of the Kingdom who was guarding Ryukyu, hoped to lead his troops into the land to fight the enemy.
Without even thinking about it, she rejected the idea and sent someone to tell him:
"To prevent any disturbances in Japan, the Qin Empire cannot do without a general like him who is proficient in naval warfare."
Now, there are nearly 200,000 naval forces in Yizhou.
It was obtained by Zheng Chenggong who personally recruited soldiers in Yizhou after the end of the war against Japan.
Of course, this matter had to be approved by the court first.
For Daji and her men, even if the enemy army was about to attack the city of Xianyang, the 200,000 navy of Yizhou could not move an inch.
Because Zheng Chenggong was responsible for strictly preventing foreign invasion.
From the perspective of national justice, this is far more important than the destruction of the country and the family.
China has always been like this.
For example, in Ying Yuan’s previous life, when the Second Emperor of Qin died.
Zhao Tuo was stationed in the area of present-day Vietnam and had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command. He wanted to return to Xianyang, but was rejected by the imperial court.
The purpose is to make him guard against foreign races.
Of course, the specific historical materials are no longer verifiable.
The so-called hundreds of thousands of soldiers were mostly civilians mixed in, and their combat effectiveness was limited.
But no matter what, it is an established fact that Qin Shi Huang asked him to guard the southern border.
...
Yizhou.
A soldier named Wang was holding a letter and a piece of clothing in his hands.
He tossed and turned and found a girl's home.
Now, she is the only one in the other person's home.
My parents have passed away long ago and I have no brothers or sisters.
Still unmarried.
Seeing that it was a soldier from her own country, the girl was not afraid at all. Instead, she acted very friendly and said with a smile, "Brother Soldier, what are you doing in my house?"
Hearing this, the soldier surnamed Wang pursed his lips, and after a long while, he slowly spoke:
"Brother Zhao died in Japan. His body was completely destroyed. All that remains is this set of armor and... a letter he gave me."
As soon as the words fell.
The girl was a little at a loss.
Tears welled up in my eyes instantly.
She took a deep breath, forced herself to stay strong, and asked, "Zhao Lang...was Zhao Lang brave when he killed the enemy?"
The soldier surnamed Wang nodded solemnly and said, "The bravest of the three armies."
The girl smiled.
In a blink of an eye, he burst into tears again.
Before the soldier named Wang could say a few words to comfort her, she covered her mouth and laughed again.
Tears streamed down my cheeks and onto my lips.
Just like that, the little girl laughed and cried, cried and laughed again, and she didn't know how much time had passed...
That year.
The little girl witnessed her lover boarding the warship.
She was not ashamed and said in front of many men: "Soldier, you must come back safely!"
"When you come back...marry me!"
Looking back, we were already separated by life and death.
Her man died for his country.
His woman never married.
That winter night.
The two men just glanced at each other briefly.
I already knew that we must be with each other in this life.
"Soldier, are you looking for a wife? I want to marry you!"
...
Those who serve in the army have already pledged their loyalty to their country.
