The general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, whose courtesy name is Yiliao, is from Anling (now northeast of Xianyang, Shaanxi). The son of Ban Chao was born in the Western Regions. In the 13th year of Yongyuan of Emperor He (101), Ban Chao sent Ban Yong to the court with the amnesty envoy. In the first year of Yongchu of Emperor An (107), the Western Regions rebelled and Ban Yong was appointed as the Sima of the army. He left Dunhuang, welcomed the arch-guard and the soldiers of the Western Regions and returned. In the sixth year of Yuan Dynasty (119), the Dunhuang prefect Cao Zong sent the prefect to lead troops to station in Yiwu (now Hami area in Xinjiang), the Northern Huns and the Cheshi

The rear (now Jimusar area in Xinjiang) jointly attacked and killed Suoban; Shanshan (now Ruoqiang area in Xinjiang) was anxious for the Han Dynasty. Empress Deng of Hexi summoned Ban Yong to the court to meet with the ministers and ministers to countermeasures. Ban Yong thought it was appropriate to set up the deputy captain of the Western Regions to protect the Western Regions in Dunhuang, restored 300 soldiers from Dunhuang camps, and sent the Western Regions Chiefs to lead 500 people to Loulan (now the northwest coast of Lop Nur, Xinjiang). Empress Deng followed his proposal, but before he could send the Chiefs to the Western Regions. In the second year of Yanguang (123), Ban Yong was appointed as the Chiefs of the Western Regions and led his troops out of the military.

. In the third year, Ban Yong guided Kucha (now Kuche area in Xinjiang), Gumo (now Aksu area in Xinjiang), and other countries to surrender. Then Ban Yong sent troops to the front of the Cheshi Division (now Turpan area in Xinjiang), and defeated the Northern Huns, and also cultivated land in Liuzhong (now near Lukeqin, southwest of Shanshan, Xinjiang). In the fourth year, Ban Yong defeated the rear of the Cheshi Division and killed his king's army to repay Ban's shame. In the first year of Yongjian in Emperor Shun (126), Ban Yong sent troops from various countries to attack the Northern Huns, Hunyan King Yuan.

After escaping, the front and rear divisions of Cheshi were thus settled. In the second year, Ban Yong and Dunhuang prefect Zhang Lang jointly fought against Yanqi and agreed on the date of arrival at the same time. Zhang Lang wanted to seek credit alone, so he arrived in Yanqi first, and Yanqi surrendered. Ban Yong was punished in the later period, was sentenced to prison, and was later dismissed. Later, he died at home. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Regions were three distinctions, and Ban Yong was promoted to the Western Regions with the Chief Secretary, and since then he never died. Yong wrote a detailed account of the Western Regions at the end of Emperor An. "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of the Western Regions" all the events before Yanguang were recorded by Yong.
