Bailongdui is a very wide-ranging regional name. It includes a huge lake and a hundred miles of fertile grassland around the lake.
If only the water and grass are abundant, there are many such places on the grassland, but the lake is called Pu Changhai.
Puchanghai is not only a salt producing Lake in western regions, but also largest salt producing base in western regions.
In the past, Cheshi, shanguo, Weili, Loulan, Pulei, and many other clans were not famous. They played a dog brain for the ownership of puchanghai. Even other big countries far away from puchanghai would participate in the competition for salt. Before the Han army of the Western Han Dynasty entered the western region, the Huns came to control puchanghai and killed all countries in puchanghai, So he controlled the western countries.
The Western Han Dynasty defeated the Huns on the grassland, marched into the Hexi Corridor and entered the western region. The first important strategic goal was puchanghai. Just because controlling puchanghai was equal to controlling the largest salt producing land in the western region. Even if they did not destroy the western countries one by one, those countries had to give in in order to get salt.
"Our first goal is it (PU Changhai), and it can only be it."
This is the first time that Li Kuang, as the top commander of the Legion who has been out to fight, of course, wants to seize the opportunity. He has been studying the western regions since the moment of appointment. He has found many successful examples in history, so he won't want to show his ability to play special games.
"The first Han Dynasty took the control of Pu Changhai as the starting point for conquering the western regions." Li Kuang stretched out his hand and made a gesture of clenching his fist: "today's western region is no longer the western region of the first Han Dynasty, but the geographical location has not changed much. Pu Changhai is still the largest salt producing land in the western region!"
The Han Army's conquest of the western regions began with the mastery of Puchang sea in Xi'an, and successively controlled Loulan, shanguo, Weili, PU and other countries. On the one hand, the Han Army constantly competed with the chariot division in the north of puchanghai, and on the other hand, it stared at a country called "Daxia" in the West.
"Conquering the western regions is only the first step." Of course, Wang Quan knew what it meant to be the long march history of this army. With a grin, "we will also look for the country called 'Daxia'."
Hearing the name of the country "Da Xia", all the people in the military tent have bright eyes.
The country named "Da Xia" in the Western Han Dynasty was actually Greece Bactria. The two countries had never had contact, but there was a saying that "Da Xia" was a Miao descendant of Zhuxia. At that time, the Han people did not care that Greece Bactria was a group of blonde people, firmly believed that they were "tongpao", and since they were "tongpao", they had a natural obligation to rescue them from the oppression of others and enjoy the grace of the emperor Liu Che.
To put it bluntly, the naming of the Han people is very particular. The country "Daxia" also has a special position in the history of Zhuxia. From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Pre-Qin Dynasty, "Daxia" has always been an example of making soy sauce in the history books of Zhuxia, that is, this "Daxia" is a white skinned Di people, and then it has become the name of a country that doesn't even know any race. Anyway, what Zhuxia thinks is what it is.
People who know the civilization of the various Xia dynasties know that first of all, "there are no two kings in the sky and no two kings in the earth", and then "is it the king and the earth in the world and the king and his officials who lead the land", It is mild to think that the same Miao people must get the grace (rule) of the emperor. As long as the land is the place under the jurisdiction of the emperor and as long as people must submit to the rule of the emperor, it is called hegemony.
"Da Xia", a country that has been making soy sauce in the history books of Zhuxia, its significance of existence is to call on the descendants of Zhuxia to explore. It doesn't matter whether they are the same Miao people or not.
From the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, we did not give up the action of looking for "Daxia". The country of "Daxia" has not been found, but the military boots of the Han Army have been stepping to the Congling mountains, and even to the west of isek Lake (Kyrgyzstan).
"You must find Da Xia." Li Kuang knew it was a follow-up matter, and he could not take the lead, but he still wanted to cheer up: "it is our fault that some people are lost outside."
No one has any objection. If they don't do it, they will be scolded by pointing at their spine. They not only want to do it, but also do everything they can.
In fact, many people also know what's going on. They don't have to find the so-called "summer". It's better to never find it. Then they can use this "mission" to drive continuous exploration and development, and military achievements will be produced in continuous conquest.
Not only will there be a journey to find "Daxia" from the Pre-Qin Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty. Liu Yan does not know what the stem of "Daxia" is. When he did not aftertaste it, now the Han state also has the speech to find "Daxia" and save his colleagues from water and fire.
Now that you have a good life, it is necessary to enjoy the happiness of your distant colleagues. See how simple the idea is and how great the sentiment is. As for what those colleagues have encountered in the long history, for example, the color of their skin has changed because of intermarriage between generations. Even if they become white skinned people, they are also colleagues!
Since they still recognize that they are fellow robes, how can they suffer outside? It is necessary to save them, and then let them learn Chinese characters again. The thoughts in their minds should also be synchronized with those of their local counterparts. What cars are on the same track, books are the same, and measures are all given again. They have worked hard until those distant relatives firmly believe that they are Chinese, Even if it's a white skin race, it must be a Han!
What is the same track, the same text and the same measurement? It's unification!
There will be wars in Zhuxia. Wars will lead to separatist regimes. However, even the weakest separatist regime will dream of reunifying the world. The powerful separatist forces will simply take action. I never thought that since the separatist regime is completed, there will be the so-called saying that "separation must be combined for a long time and separation for a long time".
For other civilizations without a unified market, even if they once had a huge empire with a vast territory, once that empire enters the grave, the powerful people in their hands want to be independent. After independence, of course, there will be mutual wars. Even if a powerful force in the back recovers the territory of the perishing country again, they just fight for the desire to expand, I really don't want to unify the "world" again.
Outside Zhuxia, if the same nation after division did not have an absolutely powerful force to wipe out the rest of the forces and stand on its own for a long time, all countries would not have the determination to "unify". Then, with the passage of time, the original same nation began to evolve into different races.
The simplest truth is that the Romans named the Germanic nation. The Germanic nation is now in the process of national division. One of the tribes called Frank still belongs to one of the Germanic tribes. The problem is that after the collapse of Western Rome, Frank occupied a huge territory in Western Europe. The first thing he did was to go his separate ways with other old brothers, Anyway, it is "Lao Tzu is developed. Why should we take care of those poor relatives". Later, we simply don't think we are a Germanic nation and collude with the local indigenous Gauls.
If in Zhuxia, even if there is a place where people can stand on their own, no matter how long it takes, it won't happen that they don't think they are Zhuxia people from top to bottom. Those people may be disgusted or hostile to the regime that dominated Zhuxia, but absolutely no one dares to deny that they are Zhuxia Miao, let alone think that they are another new nation.
For today's Han martial arts people... Especially those with higher status, the argument of "great unification" is very appetizing. It doesn't matter whether a nation is a descendant of Zhuxia or not. Anyway, they think it is. It's nonsense when they hear it, but they think it should be.
Without other factors, it is nothing more than the ability to develop and fight all the time. Only when there is a big guy in the war can he make achievements, and only when there is military merit can he seal his wife and children.
No, the "great Xia" in the Western Han Dynasty was still Greece Bactria, which lived in Kangju to the West. In the present Han country, no one cares which country the "great Xia" is. They simply don't directly point out that the country is "great Xia", that is, they don't want to directly point out that a country is "great Xia", What they fear is that once they hit the country that they think is "summer", there will be no excuse to continue the war.
Of course, another factor is that compared with their ancestors, the Han people now have a clearer understanding of the world pattern. They know which countries are further west in the western regions, and even know that there is a country called Rome on the far side of the earth.
By the way, in addition to reintroducing "Da Xia", the Han state clearly knew that the overlord of Europa was called Rome, but it did not know when the Han people no longer called Rome but "Da Qin".
The word "Qin" has many meanings, one of which means "distant west". For example, in the eastern regions of the Western Zhou Dynasty, they say that people in the West are called Qin people. Then, for people living in the Far West, their tribe is called "Qin". The Qin people have this name because of the region, which later becomes the tribal name. They summoned their children to escort the king of Zhou to move eastward. The king of Zhou also used "Qin" as the title and gave a reward to the king of Qin.
After the Qin people, if a dynasty named a distant western country "Qin" and interpreted it according to the characteristics of Zhuxia civilization, the intention is obvious. It is to regard the country called "Daqin" as a "thing in the bowl" with the special ideas of Zhuxia. One day, the country called "Daqin" will be "unified" under the grace of the same emperor.
Did you pee? Zhuxia is such an implicit expression. I named you. We took the name, so you are definitely our people.
So, if you name a foreign country in Zhuxia history, it depends on what kind of name. As long as it can be related to the place of "Kyushu", it is actually a volunteer. We must digest and integrate that place.
The Romans did not know the implicit expression of Zhuxia. They were confused about the Han people's sudden change of their title. They learned that "Qin" in Zhuxia history meant people in the Far West, and then knew that there was a country called "Qin" hundreds of years ago, especially the country called "Qin" had unified Zhuxia, which made the Romans happy.
Olus Setus Cicero is in the western regions and is in the military account at the moment. He has learned Chinese. There is no difficulty in ordinary communication, that is, he is blind to some Chinese allusions and stories such as idioms and words.
"No wonder cyris will become strong again even after a disaster." Olus Setus Cicero repeatedly heard that the Han people wanted to look for the same robe called Da Xia country. The first feeling was: "never give up their own robe and want to share their happiness with their robes. What can produce cohesion better than this?"
Wang Quan is a long marching history. It is his duty to consider and arrange battle plans. Due to the existence of special figures in the army, he has an extra responsibility to deceive and face olus Setus Cicero nodded unwillingly: "our ancestors have long said that although an inch of land is small, it can not be lost. Land is still precious, not to mention compatriots of the same blood."
Olus Setus Cicero has been in the state of Han for nearly a year and a half. The more Han people he contacts, the greater the impact. In particular, in order to understand what kind of country the state of Han is, he has read the ancient books of Zhuxia. He already knows the great unification thought of Zhuxia and believes that it is a very powerful thought.
It is precisely knowing the existence of unification, olus Setus Cicero kept writing back to his native land to introduce his superiors and colleagues to what unification is. Every time, Cicero stressed that Rome should have such an idea, and Rome must not continue to be divided.
The idea of great unification from the Far East shocked too many people. Constantius was even more valuable when he learned it. They didn't really understand the idea of great unification, but it didn't prevent them from approving and publicizing it, and then packaging it to become their mission.
"The western regions were originally the land under the rule of the Han Dynasty, but our ancestors allowed them to become princes and kings." Li Kuang Li said of course, "our current March is to let them return to the big family again."
"Yes!" Olus Setus Cicero doesn't care so much. He firmly said: "the land once lost must be taken back again."
In oulus Setus Among Cicero's forces, why they want to publicize great unification is to build a bright, great and just background wall for Constantius. On the other hand, it means that Constantius is not fighting with his brothers for power, but to ensure the unity of Rome.
The Romans believed in the "great unity of God 1 religion" and benefited from it. There is no reason not to agree with the argument that the land they ruled will always belong to the Han people!
