I wish you all the best in 2017
Next is the background of the current Han Dynasty and Kushan, as well as what I have described about King Yan Gaozhen and Ban Chao.
When I was refining my book review, I noticed that I might have forgotten to mention some history.
Let’s talk about the predecessor of Kushan first. Although there are three theories, they tend to be descendants of Yuezhi because this Han envoy has clear records. This is not important.
The important thing is Yan Gaozhen and Ban Chao. This incident happened in 90 AD, which belonged to the reign of Emperor He of the Han Dynasty. Although the Eastern Han Dynasty was always under attack, it was at its most prosperous era with a population approaching 60 million and acres of land. Seven million hectares.
Of course, the above two are just the paper strength in the Han Dynasty. The next one is very important. About the previous year, the Han Dynasty achieved the most famous achievement in Chinese history - Yan Ran Le Gong, also known as Legging Yanran from a stone and carving Yanran from a stone were in ancient times second only to Fenglang Juxu's military exploits.
The reason why this military achievement is second only to Feng Langju Xu is not because his performance is not as good as Huo Qubing's, but because his starting point is wrong.
The person who achieved this feat is called Dou Xian. This guy would be very scary if he didn't have the reputation for what he did before. However, before Yan Ran took the credit, he first assassinated the Empress Dowager's lucky minister, and then framed the blame on Cai Lun, well, it was papermaking. That guy was caught.
This kind of ill-intentioned approach must be killed. In order to avoid being killed, the Northern Huns happened to be jumping again at that time. Dou Xian decisively stated that he was going to fight the Huns. Emperor Zhang or He Di agreed. In fact, this The goods are to avoid disaster.
Because the thing he did at that time was too big, he was probably going to be chopped off when he returned. Dou Xian's brain suddenly twitched, and he did a big job, chasing the Northern Huns for three thousand miles.
Original text of Hanshu:
<1>Dou Xian, courtesy name Bodu, paid homage to the Chariot and Cavalry General. He fought with Beidan at Jiluo Mountain and defeated him. The latest and fastest update, free of charge provided
<2> The famous king who has been beheaded has reached thirteen thousand levels, and has gained more than a million animals, horses, cattle, sheep and camels. So eighty-one tribes including Wen Duxu, Ri Zhu, Wen Wu, and Fuqu King Liu Tuan led their troops to surrender, totaling more than 200,000 people. Xian and Bing then climbed Yanran Mountain and marched more than three thousand miles to the fortress. They carved stones to commemorate the Han Dynasty's might and virtue, and ordered Ban Gu to write an inscription.
After doing this, Dou Xian went back. Naturally, the Empress Dowager could not kill him, and she still got 20,000 households of food, so as long as you can fight, it's actually no problem.
The next year after this year, it was King Yan Gaozhen's turn. Although Yan Gaozhen had a supporting role before, half of the people who were considered the founders of the country tended to be King Yan Gaozhen.
The previous king was named Qiujiuche in the history of the Han Dynasty, and it was recorded in the history of the world that he was Gadphises I. This guy died in 75 AD. His significance lies in the Kingdom of Bactria, which is the so-called Kingdom of Greece in Central Asia. When they were destroyed, they led the Kushan people out and made great achievements in coordinating the chaotic religious, cultural and ethnic conflicts in Central Asia.
After Yan Gaozhen came up, he was beaten and beaten. This Yan Gaozhen was called Salter Mages (the natural savior). Later, the new king inherited Yan Gaozhen's name, so it was also Yan Gaozhen, but in fact there were two kings, with different reigns. For 80105 and 105127, Ban Chao is the so-called savior.
The reason has been mentioned before. It is actually about marrying a princess.
The original text of Han History: In the early days, the Yuezhi tried to help the Han chariot master with merit. This year, he paid tribute with treasures, talismans, and masters, in order to seek the princess of the Han Dynasty. Chao refused to return his envoy, so he was resentful.
In fact, there is also a reason for this. In the same year, Yan Ran was punished, and the Han Dynasty was in a state of rage. It was reasonable to refuse. However, Kushan had already risen at that time, decisively refused to accept, and went to war.
The original text of Han History: In the second year of Yongyuan, the Yuezhi sent his deputy king Xie to attack with 70,000 soldiers. If there are too many or too few, everyone will be frightened. Sergeant Chaoji said: "Although there are many Yueshi soldiers, they have been brought over thousands of miles away without transportation, so why worry about evil? But if we harvest the grain and hold on, the hunger and poverty will subside. It will only take a few dozen days to defeat them." Xie Sui went forward to attack and overtake them, but failed to defeat them. He also looted and gained nothing. When Chaodu was about to run out of food, he must seek help from Qiuci, so he sent hundreds of troops to the eastern border to ask for it. Xie Guo sent his cavalry to bribe Qiuci with gold, silver, pearls and jade. Ambush the soldiers and attack them all, kill them all, and hold their heads as a token of thanks. Xie was shocked and sent an envoy to plead guilty, hoping to return alive. Send him super. Yuezhi was greatly affected by the earthquake, and he contributed greatly every year.
Attached is another record: In the first year of Emperor Yongyuan's reign, General Dou Xian defeated the Xiongnu. In the second year, Xian Yin sent the deputy captain Yanpan to attack Yiwu with more than 2,000 cavalry and defeated it. Three years later, Ban Chao decided to conquer the Western Regions. With Chao as the protector, he stayed in Qiuci for six years. Ban Chao defeated Yanqi again, and more than 50 countries accepted his subordinates. The Tiaozhi and Parthian countries, as well as those 40,000 miles away from the sea, all re-translated and contributed.
That is to say, three years after Yanran Stone was carved, the entire Western Region actually knelt down. By six years, Anxi and Tiaozhi in the two river basins also knelt down. Therefore, the Eastern Han Dynasty was actually very powerful at that time.
That’s it. This is the complete background of the last Eurasian war. It is also the information that Anxi, Kushan and the Han Dynasty can refer to. It has a great influence on the small countries of Kushan, Central Asia and West Asia.
