It is recorded in ancient Chinese books that today's Naryn River is called the Zhenzhu River, also known as the Zhi River.
The lower reaches of the Zhenzhu River to the west are called Yaoshashui, which is today's Syr Darya River.
The Bukhan Kingdom is in the Pearl River.
The lower reaches of the river connect the north and south banks of Yaoshashui.
After crossing the lower reaches of the Zhenzhu River, Zhao Ziliang and others finally encountered the cavalry of the Bukhan Kingdom.
However, the cavalry of the Bukhan Kingdom saw the flag of the Tang Army and the messenger talisman.
Report from the fortress.
In the Han Dynasty, the name of the Bakhna Kingdom was "Dawan".
It was eight thousand miles away from Chang'an, as measured by the Tang Dynasty.
The Bakhna Kingdom had six large cities and more than a hundred small cities.
There were two famous big cities, one of which was Xicheng City.
The former capital of the country, the second one is Kesai City, now the capital of the country.
The people of this country live longer.
On the 19th day of the first lunar month in the twenty-seventh year of Kaiyuan, Zhao Ziliang, as the envoy of the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty, led Chu Ge and Bo Lehan, and led more than 200 retinues to arrive at Kesai City, the capital of the Bakhna Kingdom.
When there were still two miles away from Kesai City, Deputy Attendant Bulhan, who was riding on Zhao Ziliang's right side, said: "General, I heard that the current king of Ba Khana is called Axilandagan, and he has three sons. , two of them have grown up, but the younger son is only two years old.”
Zhao Ziliang did not expect that Brahan actually knew so much about Bukhana, so he asked: "Oh, what are the names of Asilanda Gan's three sons?"
Bo Lehan introduced: "The villain only knows that the eldest prince is called Zhongjie, and the second prince is called Wu Mo.
As for the third prince, I don't know what he is called.
He is too young and his reputation is not obvious."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and asked again: "How about this person Asilanda?"
Bolehan seemed to know the situation of these small countries in Central Asia very well.
When Zhao Ziliang asked about it, he immediately introduced it eloquently: "General, in the past twenty years, the big food countries in the West have been expanding to the east.
Some countries have surrendered, but the country of Bukhan has never surrendered.
In the Dashi Kingdom, the Dashi Kingdom united with the Tubo Kingdom several times to conquer, but they were all defeated by the Tang Dynasty and the Bukhanna Kingdom.
Therefore, all the Bukhanna kings were close to the Tang Dynasty.
The villain thinks that the general's trip is the most important.
The one who is easy to convince is Ashlandagan.
As for the attitude of other countries, it is hard to say.”
Zhao Ziliang was riding his horse while talking to Bo Han, understanding the situation of the Central Asian countries.
Soon he arrived at the gate of Kesai City.
There were a large number of soldiers and horses standing on both sides of the city gate, with flags waving everywhere, and the one standing at the front was Among the dozen or so people were officials and generals wearing oriental minority costumes and armor.
The weather is cold now, and most of the clothes these people wear are furs, and some are silk and satin.
However, the styles and characteristics of the clothes are completely oriental, with a little bit of Arabic or Western clothing characteristics.
It can be seen that at this time, the The Khanate, despite constant threats and frequent attacks from the Arab Empire, remained culturally untouched.
"The person coming is General Zhao Ziliang," the leader, a young foreign man in his twenties wearing a luxurious fur and a gray fur hat, shouted loudly.
Zhao Ziliang reined in his horse and stopped, nodding to Chu Ge beside him.
Chu Ge understood and responded to the opposite side: "My general is the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate, Master Gai, the Jiedushi Envoy of the Four Towns, and Fu Meng, the Envoy of Shule Town.
The envoy sent by the general changed the city guard to capture the envoy and the guerrilla general Zhao Ziliang."
The young man in rich clothes across from him quickly stroked his chest and lowered his head and said: "The eldest prince of the country of Bukhan, Zhongjie, led his second brother Wuma and the officials of Kesai City to greet the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, General Zhao Ziliang."
Zhao Ziliang jumped off the horse and threw the reins to Ma Bian.
He held a waist knife and strode forward to help up the two brothers Zhongjie and Wuma.
After taking a look, he saw that the eldest prince Zhongjie was powerful and strong, while the second prince Wu was Mo Ze has a thin face and a strong body, showing a quiet temperament.
"Ziliang deserves to be ashamed of having to wait outside in this cold weather for the two princes and the ministers of the Bukhan country.
I feel really sorry for the two princes and all the gentlemen.
Please get up quickly."

The second prince Wuma smiled and said: "General, you're welcome.
This is the first time that the general has come to our country of Bukhan as an envoy, and the general is the first envoy of the Tang Dynasty to come to our country of Bukhan in the past twenty years.
Yesterday, My father was overjoyed when he heard the news that the general was on his way to Kesai City.
He told me to greet him at the city gate today and entertain him well.
We have also admired his style for a long time.
It is really a dream to receive this errand.
Came early in the morning” Hearing this, Zhao Ziliang bowed his hands to the city of Kesai and said with a smile: "Zi Liang was flattered by the kindness and love of the king and the people of Bukhan.
He was extremely touched, but he didn't know when the king would be free.
I will definitely go to the palace to thank him." " The eldest prince Zhongjie said in a rough voice: "My father is hosting a banquet for the general in the palace tonight.
I also ask the general to go there."
Zhao Ziliang said quickly: "Of course, of course."
The eldest prince Zhongjie added: "In that case, we have prepared a residence for the general and his party in the city, but the residence is not available, so most of the general's retinues can only camp outside the city.
Please forgive me, general."
General, please rest assured that all expenses incurred by the general’s entourage will be borne by our country.”
This was a nice thing to say.
What Zhongjie really meant was that he didn't want Zhao Ziliang to bring all the more than 200 cavalry into the city, but he couldn't say it clearly.
He could only say that the residence was too small to accommodate more than 200 cavalry.
Of course Zhao Ziliang could hear it, but he didn't care much about it.
This kind of request was also reasonable.
Even if Zhongjie agreed to him taking everyone into the city, no matter how good the relationship between Ba Khan's country and the Tang Dynasty was, he would still We can't bring everyone into the city.
If Bukhan's country turns against him, won't the people he brought with him be killed by the other party?
"That's it.
Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
Zhao Ziliang asked Chu Ge to take 20 cavalry to accompany him into Kesai City, and asked Bo Lehan to camp outside the city with the remaining 200 cavalry.
The residence arranged by the Bahan Kingdom for Zhao Ziliang and others is in the embassy.
It is a large courtyard and the houses are made of stone.
This is already one of the best houses in Kesai City.
Most of the houses in the city are made of stone.
Made of compacted earth, this kind of stone house is only found in wealthy families in the city.
The roof is not flat, but has the characteristics of a Chinese roof.
At nightfall, the ministers sent by King Asilandagan of Bukhanna arrived to lead the way.
Under the leadership of the officials, Zhao Ziliang came to the palace with Chu Ge and ten guardsmen.
In the third year of Emperor Gaozong's reign in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty established the Xiuxun Prefecture Dudu's Palace here, and appointed the then King of Bukhanna, Alesen, as the governor of the Dudufu.
It has always been a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.
Sitting on the throne is Axilandagan, a middle-aged man of nearly fifty years old, with a beard all over his face, and his appearance is really unflattering.
The left and right sides were filled with civil servants and generals from the country of Bukhan.
The official offices of the civil servants were very similar to those of the Tang Dynasty, while most of the generals wore iron armor, with a layer of fur padding their helmets and armors to protect them from the cold, giving them an obvious exotic feel.
Zhao Ziliang walked to the steps and bowed down with his hands raised in salute: "The Deputy Protector of Anxi Province, the Jiedushi Envoy of the Four Towns, Mr.
Gai, the envoy of General Fu Meng, the envoy of Shule Town, and the envoy of the transfer city guard Zhao Ziliang have met.
King" Axilandagan was very happy to see Zhao Ziliang, and the wrinkles on his orange-peel face deepened when he smiled, "General Zhao is here without courtesy, please sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Ziliang bowed again and knelt down on an empty seat next to him.
Chu Ge stood behind him with four subordinates.
As soon as we sat down, wine and meat were served by the palace maids.
Axilandagan clapped his hands again, and soon a group of barbarian dancers walked out from one side.

Among these barbarian dancers, there were not only local girls. and Han women, as well as Arab women, Caucasian women, black Africans, and Indian women from the South.
The dancers performed a charming dance to the accompaniment of huqin and hugu.
There were fires burning in many places in the hall, and they did not feel cold at all.
During the dance, the dancers took off their clothes one by one, and their skin was looming.
Intriguing.
Zhao Ziliang looked like he was drinking heavily and eating meat.
His eyes were darting around, but he didn't have the slightest desire.
He was thinking about how to tell Asilanda Gan about his purpose.
