Zhao Jiguang has said this many times.
Even though he had never seen what the sea looked like.
But I still have expectations in my heart.
But because of my identity, I can only think about it in the end.
The General Zhenbei's duty is to guard the northern border and prevent the grassland army from invading.
It seems prosperous, but who can understand the pain in his heart?
"General, I know everything you said." A guard not far away also looked interested after hearing these words. He then said, "You can only tell me what you are thinking right now."
As someone who had practiced martial arts together and grew up together, he understood the general in front of him very well.
It is precisely because of this that they privately help each other collect the latest nautical charts.
But now the grassland has assembled an army of 200,000.
The situation at Zhenbei Pass is serious.
I just hope that the general can spend more time on this aspect.
In addition to the idea of ​​protecting the border and preventing the people from suffering from disasters, it also includes the following.
There is also the possibility that the other party can take advantage of this opportunity to atone for their sins.
After all, over the years, Zhenbei Pass had been attacked several times by the grassland army, and the general had failed to defend it properly many times.
Now that this incident has happened again, there must be complaints all over the court. If this continues, he will definitely not be able to keep his position as the General of Zhenbei.
If it's more serious, he might be subject to military law.
"Yeah, I can only tell you."
Zhao Jiguang sat on a chair, spread out the sea chart in his hand, and lingered on it with his eyes. He murmured, "Because I am the son of the Divine Martial Marquis, I must learn the art of war, practice martial arts, and deal with the grassland tribes, just as everyone expects."
"Because I'm the son of the Marquis of Divine Martial Arts, I shouldn't have any other thoughts. It's as if I was destined to guard the northern border since birth."
"My father thought the same thing. He never allowed me to do anything else. Even looking at the sea charts could only be done in private."
At this point, his expression began to change, and he continued, "But no one has ever asked me what I want, what my goal is, whether I want to become the Great General of Zhenbei, and whether I want to come here."
"No, even if I told you, no one would listen or understand. They would just treat it as a joke."
Ever since Emperor Taizu Gao conferred the title of Marquis Shenwu on the ancestor of the Zhao family and granted him the great grace of hereditary succession.
The duty of the Shenwu Hou of each generation was to guard the Zhenbei Pass and prevent the grassland tribes from invading from the south.
The Zhao family did the same thing, and did it very well.
It also allows everyone to form a way of thinking.
As long as they are the descendants of the Shenwu Marquis Mansion.
You must practice martial arts, learn military tactics, and guard the northern border.
Especially since Zhao Jiguang was the son of Marquis Shenwu and also his only son.
Since he was born, he has been given high hopes by the people around him. Everyone said that in the future he would inherit the title of Marquis Shenwu and go to Zhenbei Pass.
But no one cares at all what Zhao Jiguang is thinking or what he wants for the future.
Just like her younger sister Zhao Lingying, it seems that no one will ever understand her.
"General..."
The guards beside him felt helpless when they heard these words.
Even though he knew that the other party did not want to stay in Zhenbei Pass, for various reasons, all the burdens fell on one person.
"Don't worry. As the General Guarding the North, I know what to do." At this time, Zhao Jiguang put away the sea chart and continued, "The last defeat must have been criticized by the court officials. I'm afraid even my father would be angry. But this general doesn't care."
"No matter what punishment the court imposes on me, now that I've taken this position, I should do what's right. The most important thing now is to stop the grassland army from invading from the south before the imperial reinforcements arrive."
At this moment, the Zhenbei General's eyes became firm, and he said, "Because, I am a general of the Great Wei."
"To protect the northern border and prevent the people from suffering unprovoked disasters, this general must stand here."
Although, they were stationed at Zhenbei Pass to defend against the grassland army.
It was not what he expected in his heart.
But Zhao Jiguang wanted to do all this in the last time.
This is the responsibility of the commander.
"I understand." The guard bowed and said, "Judging from the time, the imperial order should arrive in the next two days."
"I hope the court will consider the general's many years of guarding the northern border and show leniency in his sentence. At the very least, give us a chance to atone for our sins."
As a personal guard, he naturally doesn't want the other party to be punished.
Because only he knows clearly.
How much has the general done over the years to defend the northern border?
As for the imperial court's reinforcements, they certainly won't arrive so soon.
After all, it takes time for the army to move forward.
There are a lot of things to prepare.
The orders only need to be delivered by someone, so they will come much faster.
However, Zhao Jiguang did not take the words of his personal guards to heart at all.
Because he had already anticipated that there were only two possible ways for the court to deal with him.
The first is that His Majesty will be angry, impose severe punishment, and then replace the candidate for the General of Zhenbei.
In fact, he also expected this result.
At least then, I'll have more time to do what I want to do, even in private.
Of course, there is another solution, which is to let him continue to guard Zhenbei Pass and resist the grassland army.
So, we must continue to stay here.
but.
No matter what kind of treatment he received, Zhao Jiguang didn't care. After all, deep down, it was not what he wanted.
Could it be that Your Majesty could send me to garrison in the coastal areas?
