As usual, Lai Dan handled official documents in his official residence.

As the Yumen Captain, he has to do a lot of things.

Not only Yumensai itself, he also had the task of contacting Luntai and sending Luntai's official documents and information to Juyan in a timely manner.

Recently, with the main force of the Xiongnu, he returned to Pulehai from the northern Western Regions and the front line of Kucha.

The pressure on Luntai has increased dramatically!

The Han army had to increase troops to Luntai to prevent the nail from being pulled out by the Huns.

The pressure at Yumen Pass naturally also increased.

As the Yumen Captain, Lai Dan had to always maintain combat readiness at Yumen Pass and ordered his army to keep armed with armor at all times so as to facilitate support to Luntai at any time!

"Captain!" The door was pushed open, and a man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing Han army armor, and wearing hair and crown walked in and said, "There is someone who claims to be a messenger from afar and foreign land..."

"Far a foreign land?" Lai Dan immediately stood up and asked cautiously: "Where is the place and country?"

Since the Bowang Hou Zhang Qian opened the Western Regions, the connection between the Han Dynasty and the distant foreign countries has continued to occur.

The Great Honglu of Chang'an also attaches great importance to its ties with these countries.

Over the past thirty years, Yumen Pass has received countless missions.

The farthest messenger is the messenger from Shibin tens of thousands of miles away.

What’s even more interesting is that after the envoy of the Binbin went to Chang'an and worshiped the emperor, the Han Dynasty also sent an envoy to visit him and successfully arrived at Binbin, and then brought back a lot of local information and intelligence.

Therefore, Lai Dan dared not slacken at all.

"But I don't know..." The blonde and blue-eyed officer replied: "The last general just listened to his guidance. He came from Daxia, west of Kangju. It is said that the country still has a connection with Dayuan..."

"However, the last general doesn't understand what he said, and even the guide is difficult to describe..."

"Dayuan has its origin?" Lai Dan immediately became interested when he heard this.

He had participated in the Dayuan War and had some understanding of Dayuan.

The people of Wan were rich, and their customs were different from those of the Western Regions and even more incompatible with China.

At that time, the Dayuan nobles captured by the Han army also confessed that their ancestors came to Dayuan hundreds of years ago from the other side of the mountains and the sea, where the sun set, crossed countless mountains.

However, hundreds of years ago, with the mysterious death of the king who led them to Dayuan, his country fell apart.

Wanren didn’t know where their ancestors came from?

All they knew was that their ancestors were very awesome and the gods they believed in were very awesome.

Therefore, they felt that with such awesome ancestors and gods, they would naturally be a powerful country thousands of miles away.

This made the Han army at that time laugh and cry.

The mistake was made by the Wan people kneeled in time later, and the conditions agreed upon after the defeat also satisfy the Han army.

At that time, General Ershi had already thought about the plan to massacre Dayuan and bring its population and wealth back to China.

Now, an envoy has come from the mother country of Dayuan people?

What are they doing?

Lai Dan thought for a while and said, "I'll go and meet this messenger myself!"

A moment later, Lai Dan and his men met the mission under the Yumen Gate that was said to be a "country country in a foreign land".

He squinted his eyes and looked at these people.

The clothes of these people are very strange.

It is somewhat similar to the people of Dayuan, but more complicated.

In addition, these people have their appearances, which are very strange. They are neither blonde hair nor blue eyes nor black hair nor brown eyes.

Instead, it looks a bit like a Han husband.

Her skin is slightly white, black hair, dark eyes, calm, neither humble nor arrogant, and she has a breath that only a big country can possess.

More importantly, the height of the entire mission members is almost over seven feet tall.

Moreover, the body is very strong and full of muscles!

This is a rare situation!

In the past, Yumen Pass received countless barbarian missions.

Among them are many envoys from powerful countries such as Wusun and Kangju.

But how to say it?

These barbarians are either simply lost by the Han Dynasty, or even though they are barely qualified, they are always standing with the Han husband, like a small salary, and immediately become prominent.

The only mission in front of us is that those men in strange clothes, whether in height, physical fitness, or temperament, are not inferior to those of the Han husbands.

Lai Dan even discovered some unique temperaments that were only shown by Chinese literati in the past.

"It seems that the legend of the extreme western country is true..." Lai Dan thought to himself that although he was not born in the Han army, being able to grow up to this point in the Han army and being appointed as the Yumen Captain, which is enough to show that his cultural cultivation and knowledge reserves are so strong that people can ignore his blood, skin color, and background!

Therefore, he quickly thought of the legend about the extreme western country that had been circulated in the Han Dynasty for a long time.

There is a legend that Queen Mother of the West lived in the local area.

The human head and leopard body have medicine for immortality.

Of course, these are the words of alchemists, and no one knows whether it is true or not.

However, now that there are missions from the extreme western countries arriving, the hole may not be without wind.

Thinking of this, Lai Dan walked forward, smiled and bowed, "Lai Dan, the captain of Hanyumen, have seen all the distinguished guests!"

Then, he repeated the passage one by one in the language he mastered.

When he spoke Daxia, the other party finally responded. The man in the lead frowned slightly. After listening carefully for a while, he walked up, stroked his chest with his right hand, lowered his head slightly, and said in Daxia language in a strange pronunciation method: "By the king of Seys, the protector of Amacia, the king favored by Mitra, the son of Dionysus, the Lord of the Sea, the order of the great King Mitradati, the Tigreves of Orviar to pay tribute to you..."

Lai Dan was really confused when he heard this.

It was not until the other party said it three times that he could barely understand something.

So Laidan asked someone to bring paper and pen to record it: On the third day of the sixth month of the summer of the second year of Yanhe, an envoy from the extreme west said: Dilis said that he was entrusted by his king, Setra, to come to my Yumen Pass to lock the pass.

Then, the envoy's height, appearance and clothing were recorded.

Then he smiled and said, "Emister, please go to the city to discuss in detail..."

On the other hand, he handed over the text he had just recorded to the adjutant and instructed him: "Transfer to Juyan immediately and ask General Ershi to submit it to the Great Honglu of Chang'an..."

China has been hospitality since ancient times.

Even if an envoy from an enemy country requests entry through formal channels, he will be welcomed and treated with courtesy, security and care.

but……

But it is not a cat or a dog. It has the opportunity to be allowed to enter the core area of ​​the Han Empire. It is even more difficult to enter the worship of the emperor.

Generally, only by passing the review of the Great Honglu and then receiving the consent of the Emperor of Han, can we enter Chang'an.

This time is naturally no exception.

However, this mission will obviously be taken seriously.

It’s not just because they come to the court, but it will be interesting.

More because of the quality they show!

Stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade!

If there is a national civilization that is close to or not inferior to the Han Empire in the view of the Han Dynasty.

Lai Dan knew that inside and outside the court would be very interested!

The sea embraces all rivers and is tolerant!

……………………………………

The outline of Wan Ze gradually appeared in sight.

The figures of the crowds coming to welcome from afar are becoming clearer and clearer.

Riding on the horse and looking north, Zhang Yue remembered the journey of the past two months, and felt mixed emotions.

Then, he raised his hand and issued an order: "The whole army listened to my order: escort the heroes who died in war home!"

"No!" The three Han generals who had been waiting beside him immediately took the order, then rode the horse and set off towards their respective troops.

So, the Han army's admiration band began to play their instruments.

In the low and sad music, people began to sing Qu Zi's "Soul Chasing": "I am innocent and honest in my young age, and I am righteous but not frivolous..."

Then, under the gaze of the Wuheng people and the Huns, the Han army's Changshui heavy cavalry was wearing armor and heading forward.

In the forefront of the army, one horse after another, stretching forward.

These elite and powerful knights took off their iron helmets and put the long halberd pillars in their hands on the grass, forming a passage of hundreds of steps.

Before the passage, the Han soldiers separated and lined up on both sides, revealing the convoy behind them.
To be continued...
