Chapter 898

When envoys from so many countries come, they say that it's not too much to say that all countries are coming to Korea?

Well, in order to maintain the basic political task of all countries coming to Korea, there should have been a grand welcome ceremony. The key is that the teams from all countries are too swollen and fat!

More than 16000 people came from the Romans alone, or more than 2000 people died during the voyage, leaving this number, or more than 18000.

Many people came to Rome. The nobles accounted for about 10% of them. The rest were either accompanied by all kinds of people or escorts.

There are so many people in a single mission. According to the statistics, there are about 6000 guards, which seems to be an army with three Roman legions, okay?

If the soldiers were not guards and came from the Roman Legion, it would be impossible for the Han Army to let them ashore or even let them pass through Malacca safely.

The number of Persian envoys is also quite large, including miscellaneous personnel, with a total number of 5600.

The Persians had more nobles than the Romans, but they were obviously more sensible than the Romans, only bringing 500 accompanying guards.

In the other small countries, some regional powers, such as vargatoga, two satraps and tidoro (the successor of kusana), rank second in the number ladder, with a number of more than 1000.

The last echelon is each small country, with the number ranging from dozens to hundreds.

The number of all the diplomatic missions added up, the number of international friends who arrived in Chang'an reached 47000, which is really an exaggerated figure.

The number of people is so large that the welcome ceremony is not impossible. The problem is that there are too many people. It gives people a feeling that guests deceive the host. Even if the aggrieved Han people are very rational without using a knife, what is the reason to arrange the welcome ceremony according to the normal procedures?

"Welcome ceremony?" Wang Meng smiled in an instant and smiled brightly: "did you see the Central Stadium on your way?"

Of course, there was no stadium before. It was also a product of Liu Yan's interference in history.

Such a huge building can't be ignored at all. International friends naturally see the central stadium.

"A big man is a country of etiquette!" Wang Meng naturally has the confidence to say this. It is known that no country and nation in the world pays more attention to interests than the Han people: "how can you forget to arrange the welcome ceremony?"

International friends think they understand that if there is no wall in Chang'an City, there will be no gate. Naturally, the welcome ceremony will not be arranged at the gate, that is, it will be arranged at the central gymnasium?

They looked at the empty street and the open space on both sides of the street. They saw that the soil on the ground was still very strong. Obviously, it was because someone had been here for a long time that the soil on the ground was so strong and smooth.

"We go through the entrance and exit of the army. It's normal for no one to watch." Wang Meng didn't lie. He said with a nostalgic expression: "when the envoy was sent off here, he came back after nearly two years. I felt a lot."

Of course, the special channel for the army is not only for the army, and some ceremonies will also be held in the special channel for the army.

The soil on the open space on both sides of the road will look so solid and smooth. People from the Hong Lu museum have been here to rehearse the welcome ceremony before. They decided not to hold the welcome ceremony outdoors until the embassies of various countries came ashore and changed to the central gymnasium.

There are no buildings on both sides of the military special passage, and it is the same when going deep into the urban area. After going deep enough, you can see the buildings, but those are not folk houses.

"Where we are passing is the military camp?" Julian saw a familiar building, which was a platoon dormitory called the barracks by the Han people. He could also see other novel things, such as some fitness equipment placed in the open space: "there is space on both sides of the road. Sometimes the road is not enough?"

Wang Meng doesn't want to explain at all.

On both sides of the military passage, the more open it is, the better. There can be no buildings that can block the field of vision in order to prevent ambush. In addition, who will line up and only walk through the passage in case of emergency. Climbing is the best way to get to the position as soon as possible.

"Look at the size of the barracks..." gambisis lowered his voice: "there should be about 10000 soldiers stationed in this barracks."

The correct number of soldiers stationed in this camp is 15000, which happens to be an army.

There are quite a number of barracks in Chang'an city. The number of personnel stationed in each barracks is an army. If you can overview the area where the barracks are located, you will find that the layout is very exquisite. The arrival of troops in any area will not exceed ten minutes.

The team continued to move forward. As they walked, they suddenly found that the front was full of people. It was right to see that the people were dressed like civilians.

Today is a slightly extraordinary day for Chang'an residents. They were informed earlier that foreign envoys would arrive, and the central stadium in the city would be opened for the first time.

Most people don't know what the purpose of the center is. Most people don't know that they need to buy tickets until they go to participate. What's more depressing is that buying tickets requires a foundation of titles. Without titles, they are not qualified to buy tickets.

"Is this a foreigner?"

"All in our clothes."

"Looking at these guys wearing our clothes reminds me of the idiom of bathing monkeys and crowning."

"Those foreigners who are similar to us dress well, and have dark and white skin are indeed bathed in monkeys and crowns."

There is no human wall composed of public officials on both sides of the street, and there is no guardrail, but the onlookers consciously stand outside the road.

Quality is not a natural cultivation, it comes from repeated education. As long as the adult Han people have no physical defects, they need to receive military training in summer and winter. There will be no lack of basic discipline. With some public officials walking around and restrained, the order can naturally be maintained.

Most of the crooked nuts don't understand Chinese. They judge the Han people because they don't understand, which gives them the impression that the Han people are very enthusiastic.

For example, Julian felt the closeness of the Han people to the Romans and knew that was the reason why the two nationalities looked similar.

"It's our fault that they look so different from the Han people?" Keshias felt malice: "are we friendly? How can we do this!"

Julian was interested in eye medicine, but he endured it after all and said fairly: "only those who can support each other are allies. One party is completely dependent on the other, which is called vassal relationship."

Keshias was silent.

"At the beginning of this war against the Gupta Dynasty, Sasan only proposed an alliance to pull other countries into the alliance." Julian really felt that the Persians were either stupid or not authentic: "but you only did those things, and your later actions were not like allies at all."

Keshias felt guilty. When they came back, they not only didn't look like allies of the Han state, but also made obstacles to the Han state openly and secretly.
