Bailongdui is a very extensive area named after a large lake, as well as more than 100 miles of fertile grassland around the lake.
If it's just the abundance of water and grass, there are many places like this on the grassland, but that lake is called Puchanghai.
Puchanghai is a salt-producing lake in the Western Regions, and it is also the largest salt-producing base in the Western Regions, and there is no one.
In the past, the Cheshi, Shanguo, Yuli, Loulan, Pu, and more unnumbered tribes, they played out their dog's brains for the ownership of Pu Changhai, even other big countries far away from Pu Changhai will also participate in the struggle for salt, before the Han army of the Western Han Dynasty did not set foot in the Western Regions, the Huns came over and controlled Pu Changhai, and then killed all countries in Puchanghai, so they controlled the countries of the Western Regions.
The Western Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu on the grassland, marched into the Hexi Corridor and entered the Western Regions, the first important strategic goal was Pu Changhai, all because controlling Pu Changhai was equivalent to controlling the largest salt-producing area in the Western Regions, even if the salt-producing areas were not destroyed one after another, those countries could only succumb in order to get salt.
"Our first target is Pu Changhai, and it can only be it."
This is the first time that Li Kuang has been going out to fight as the supreme commander of the legion, of course he wants to seize the opportunity, he has been studying the Western Regions since the moment the appointment was issued, and has found many successful examples from history, so he will not want to show his ability to play special.
"It was from the control of Puchanghai that the Han Dynasty conquered the Western Regions."
Li Kuang stretched out his hand and made a gesture of clenching his fist: "Today's Western Regions is no longer the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty, but the geographical location has not changed much, and Puchanghai is still the largest salt producing area in the Western Regions."
The Han army's conquest journey in the Western Regions began with Xi'an's mastery of Puchanghai, and successively controlled Loulan, Shanguo, Yuli, Puzi and other countries.
On the one hand, the Han army was constantly competing with the chariot divisions north of Puchanghai, and on the other hand, it was setting its sights on a country called "Great Xia" further west.
"The conquest of the Western Regions is only the first step."
Of course, Wang Quan knew what it meant to be the marching leader of this army, and grinned, "We will also look for that country called Great Xia. ” Hearing the name of the country "Great Xia", the eyes of the people in the military tent lit up.
The country named "Great Xia" in the Western Han Dynasty is actually Greek Bactria, and the two countries have never been in contact, but there is a saying that "Great Xia" is a descendant of Zhuxia and Miao.
At that time, the Han people did not care that Bactria was a group of blond and blue-eyed people, and firmly believed that they were "comrades", and then since they were "comrades", they had a natural obligation to rescue them from the oppression of others, and enjoy the blessing from Liu Che, the son of heaven.
To put it bluntly, the Han people are very particular about naming, and the country of "Da Xia" also has a special status in the history of Zhuxia, from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the pre-Qin "Da Xia" has always had examples of soy sauce in the history books of Zhuxia, that is, this "Da Xia" will be a white-skinned Di person, and then it will become the name of a country that doesn't even know what race it is, anyway, what Zhuxia thinks is what it is.
People who understand the Zhuxia civilization know one thing, first of all, "there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the earth", and then there is "the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister", and they feel that the same Miao must get the favor of the Son of Heaven, and the rule is quite mild, as long as it is the land, it is the land under the jurisdiction of the Son of Heaven and as long as it is a person, it must be under the rule of the Son of Heaven to be called domineering.
"Great Xia", a country that has been playing soy sauce in the history books of Zhuxia, the meaning of his existence is to call on the descendants of Zhuxia to open up, and it doesn't matter whether it is the same Miao descendant or not.
From the Western Han Dynasty began to march westward, until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it did not give up the search for "Great Xia", the country of "Great Xia" has not been found, but the military boots of the Han army have been stepping on the Green Ridge, and even stepped on Issyk-Kul Lake to the west of Kyrgyzstan.
"Great Xia is a must-seek."
Li Kuang knew that it was a follow-up matter, and he couldn't take the lead, but he still had to cheer up: "It's our fault that some people are lost." ” No one has any objections, and if they don't do it, they will wait to be pointed at the backbone, and they will not only do it, but do it as best they can.
Many people actually know what is going on, not necessarily to find the so-called "Great Xia", it is best to never find it, then they can use this "mission" to drive continuous exploration and development, and military merit will be produced in continuous conquest.
Not only did the pre-Qin Dynasty go to the Eastern Han Dynasty to find the "Great Xia" journey, Liu Yan didn't know what the "Great Xia" was, he didn't recall the time, and the current Han Kingdom also had the remarks of looking for the "Great Xia" and rescuing his comrades from fire and water.
I have a good life, it is necessary to draw distant comrades to enjoy the blessings, see what a simple thought this is, and what a great sentiment, as for what those comrades have suffered in a long history, such as because of generations of intermarriage with different races, even the color of the skin has changed, even if it has become a white-skinned race, it is also a comrade Since they still recognize that they are comrades, how can they be allowed to suffer outside, salvation is a necessary thing, and then let them learn Chinese characters again, and the thoughts in their minds must also be synchronized with their local comrades, what cars are on the same track and books are the same text, and the same measurements are all given again, and they have been working hard until those distant relatives unswervingly think that they are Han people, even if they are white-skinned people, they must be Han people What is the same track, the same book and the same measurement is the great unification There will be wars in Zhuxia, and wars will lead to secession, but even the weakest secession regime will dream of reunifying the world, and the powerful separatist forces will simply take action.
Other civilizations that do not have a unified market, even if they once had a huge empire with a vast territory, but once that empire goes into the grave, what those who have strength in their hands want is self-reliance, and after self-reliance, of course, there will be wars against each other, even if a powerful force restores the territory of the destroyed country again, they are only fighting for the desire to expand, and they really don't think that they must let the "world" be unified again.
Outside of Zhuxia, if there is no absolutely strong force to sweep away the rest of the forces, the countries will not have the determination to "unify" after the division of the same nation, and then as time passes, the original same race begins to evolve into different races.
The simplest truth, the Romans named the Germanic peoples.
This Germanic nation is now staging a process of national split, one of the tribes called the Franks, they still belong to one of the Germanic tribes, the problem is that after the collapse of Western Rome, the Franks occupied a huge territory in Western Europe, and the first thing they did was to part ways with other old brothers, anyway, "Lao Tzu is developed, why bother with those poor relatives", and then they simply do not consider themselves to be a Germanic people, and they are in the same stream with the local indigenous Gauls.
If it is in Zhuxia, even if there is a place where people are self-reliant, no matter how long it is, it will not 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 dominates Zhuxia, but absolutely no one dares to deny that they are descendants of Zhuxia Miao, let alone think that they are another new people or something.
For today's Han warriors, especially the higher the status of the warriors, the argument of "great unification" is very appetizing, or the kind of people who don't care whether a certain nation is a descendant of Zhuxia or not, anyway, they think it is, this kind of argument feels nonsense when they hear it, but they think it should be like that.
There are no other factors, it is nothing more than being able to open up and continue to fight, only with war can the big guys make contributions, and with military merits can they be crowned wives and sons.
No, the "Great Xia" in the Western Han Dynasty was still the Greek Bactria further west of Kangju, and no one in the current Han Kingdom cared which country the "Great Xia" was, so they simply didn't point it out directly, saying that the country was "Great Xia", that is, they were unwilling to directly point out a country as "Great Xia", what they were afraid of was that once they hit the country that they thought was "Great Xia", they would have no excuse to continue the war.
Of course, the other factor is that compared with their ancestors, the current Han people 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 other side of the earth.
By the way, in addition to re-proposing "Great Xia", the Han State knew that the overlord of Europa was called Rome, but I don't know when the Han people no longer called Rome Rome, but changed to "Great Qin".
The word "Qin" has many meanings, one of which is "far west", such as the eastern regions of the Western Zhou Dynasty, they said that people in the west were called Qin people.
Then the people who lived in the far west, their tribe was called "Qin", and the Qin people got this name because of the region, and later became the name of the tribe.
They summoned their children to escort the king of Zhou to the east, and the king of Zhou was canonized using "Qin" as a title, giving a reward to a Qin king.
After the Qin people, if a dynasty named a country in the far west as "Qin", and interpreted it with the characteristics of the Zhuxia civilization, the intention could not be more obvious, that is, with the special ideology of Zhuxia, the country called "Great Qin" was regarded as "something in a bowl", and one day the country called "Great Qin" would be "unified" under the grace of the same Son of Heaven.
I'm scared to pee, Zhu Xia is such a subtle expression, I have named you, the name is given by us, then you are definitely our people.
Therefore, if Zhuxia names foreign countries in history, it depends on what kind of name, as long as it can be related to the land of "Kyushu", it is actually a will, and we must digest and integrate that place.
The Romans didn't know the subtle expression of Zhuxia, they were first confused by the Han people's sudden change of their name, to understand that "Qin" in the history of Zhuxia refers to people from the far west, and then to know that Zhuxia had a country called "Qin" hundreds of years ago, especially the country called "Qin" also unified Zhuxia, which led to the Romans being happy.
Aulus Sextus Cicero is in the Western Regions, and at this moment he is in the military tent.
He has learned Chinese, and there is no difficulty in ordinary communication, but he is blind to the allusions and stories behind some idioms and words.
"It's no wonder that Seris has become strong again even after a disaster."

When Aulus Sykes Tus Cicero repeatedly heard that the Han people were looking for their comrades from the country called Bactria , his first impression was: "Never give up on your comrades, want to share your happiness with your comrades, what could be more cohesive than this?"
Wang Quan is the history of the march, it is his duty to consider and arrange the battle plan, because there are special people in the army, there is an additional responsibility to flicker, in the face of the feeling of Aulus Sextus Cicero, he didn't want to nod his head: "Our ancestors have long said that "although an inch of land is small, there is no room for loss", the land is still precious, not to mention the compatriots of the same blood. ” Aulus Saxtus Cicero has been in Han for nearly a year and a half, and the more Han people he comes into contact with, the greater the influence he will be, especially in order to understand what kind of country Han is, he has read the classics of Zhu Xia, and he already knows the great unification of Zhu Xia, and thinks that it is a very powerful idea.
Knowing the existence of the Great Unification, Aulus Sexes Cicero kept writing back to his homeland to introduce to his superiors and colleagues what the Great Unification was, and each time he emphasized that Rome should also have such an idea, and that Rome must not be allowed to continue to be divided.
The idea of great unification from the far east shocked too many people, and Constantius was even more precious when he learned about it, they did not really understand the idea of great unification, but it did not prevent them from agreeing with and promoting this idea, and then packaging it as their own mission.
"The Western Regions were originally also lands under the rule of the Han Dynasty, but our ancestors allowed them to become princes and kings."
Li Kuang said as a matter of course: "Our march this time is to let them return to the big family again. ” "Yes," said Aulus Sykes Cicero as he said firmly, "the land that was once lost must be regained." ” In the power of Aulus Sextus Cicero, why did they promote great unification, that is, to create a bright, great, and righteous background wall for Constantius, and on the other hand, to say that Constantius did not fight to the death with his brother for power, but to ensure the unity of Rome.
The Romans believed in the "Great Unification God 1 Religion" and could still benefit from it, and there was no reason not to raise their limbs in agreement with the argument that the Han people felt that the land they ruled would always belong to the Han people:
