Let's read the story 'A Brave General':
In the days of king Chakradhwaj Singha, the western part of his kingdom was under the Moguls. The king had to pay huge sums of money to the Mogul emperor. He decided to fight the Moguls and recover the lost part of his kingdom.
The king needed a brave general to fight the Moguls. He selected Lachit as the Borphukan or the general. But before sending him to the battlefield, the king wanted to test him.
The king called Lachit to his chamber. Lachit knelt down before the king. At that moment an attendant rushed into the royal chamber and took off Lachit's turban. This was a great insult to Lachit. He became very angry with the attendant.
Tags The man ran to the king's throne and stood behind it. Lachit ran towards him in great anger. But the king stopped Lachit and told him that the attendant was only carrying out his order. He also told Lachit that he wanted to test if Lachit was brave and had self-respect. the
Then king appointed Lachit as the Borphukan. He also presented Lachit with a beautiful sword.
Let's learn these new words:
knelt : to be in a position where the body is supported on the knees
turban : a long piece of cloth worn tightly around the head
chamber: a hall that is used for formal meetings
sword : a weapon with a long metal blade and a handle
