"The descendants of the Gu family are willing to protect our country's territory from generation to generation. We, the Gu family's army, will not give up an inch of territory on the borders we guard."
A hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Gu family accompanied the founding emperor to conquer the Yan Kingdom. The emperor wanted to reward the ancestors of the Gu family with titles and official positions, but the ancestors of the Gu family refused. He left his nephews in the capital and guarded the territory of the Yan Kingdom with his wife.
This has been the case for generations of the Gu family for hundreds of years. They left their sons and nephews in the capital to make the emperor feel at ease, while the Gu family has been stationed at the border for generations. There have been constant wars for hundreds of years, but the border has not been compromised at all. Instead, a lot of territory has been lost to the enemy.
