Six hundred and seventy-sixth chapter tune) teach (1)
Looking at the Wusun delegation surrounded by heavy armored cavalry from afar, Zhang Yue quietly raised his eyes, observing the members of the delegation from a distant foreign land, and looking at their appearance.
Because the historical materials that Zhang Yue himself traced back have always been a mystery about the ethnicity of the Wusun people.
Judging from the unearthed ancient Wusun noble tombs, the skeleton and body shape of the tomb owners all have obvious symbols of European race.
When Yan Shigu of the Tang Dynasty was annotating the Han Book, he also said in detail: Wusun’s shape was the most different in the Rong people in the Western Regions. Today, the Hu people with blue eyes and red beards are based on their species!
From this perspective, Wusun should be a European race with deep nose, high eyes, red hair and blue eyes.
However, the Han people did not see Wusun!
In the Han Dynasty document "Jiao Family Yilin", it once described the characteristics of the Wusun race: The Wusun girl has deep eyes and dark ugly eyes, and has different desires!
From this perspective, the Wusun race seems to be a brown race similar to the Sange family.
Jiao Yanshou, the author of "Jiao Family Yi Lin", was an active giant in the "Book of Changes" series during the Zhaoxuan period, and a famous scholar in later generations. Jingfang, the founder of the Jing Family School of the "Book of Changes", was his personal disciple.
And when Zhaoxuan was about to come, the Wusun Kingdom was already the blood alliance of the Han Dynasty.
The two countries cannot be said to have frequent exchanges, at least they are very close.
Therefore, Jiao Yanshou must have had contact with the Wusun people and studied it in depth.
Therefore, these two debates about the Wusun people have been long-term and have supported many historians.
Now, Zhang Yue looked up and saw that almost all the Wusun delegation were wearing a strange felt hat and a coat made of sheepskin.
He is tall and upright, almost the same as a Chinese man!
As for its appearance?
Zhang Yue pursed his lips, lowered his head, and a smile spilled out of the corner of his mouth.
The debates in later generations can be stopped at this moment!
Because the appearance characteristics of the members of the Wusun Mission in front of us can be said to be full of flowers.
There are both Europeans with deep nose, high eyes, red hair, blue eyes or black hair, and thick and strong Mongolian races, and twenty or thirty brown races that look thin and short and darker.
"This seems to be the impact of the Yuezhi's migration to the west..." Zhang Yue guessed in his heart.
The westward migration of Yuezhi had a long-term impact on the entire Central and West Asia.
Not to mention, it eventually led to the emergence of the Kushan Dynasty and Kushan culture.
The movement of the Yuezhi people alone disrupted the original power structure of Central Asia, West Asia and even South Asia, which was enough to write a paper with millions of words to explain it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yue raised his head, a little ready to try, and his eyes were even more eager to try.
A small Yuezhi moved westward, or the remnants of the Huns who were beaten to death by the Huns, had such a significant impact on the world.
What if the Han army fought westward?
Not to mention changing the world, at least we can rewritten Asian history?
The Han army wanted to fight westward, go to a larger world, and create a more glorious history.
Just a geopolitical consideration, Wusun is an indispensable and a key link that cannot be lost!
And this time, the little Kunmo who came to Chang'an was the top priority.
Whether he can correct his three views and transform his life is crucial to Zhang Yue and the Han Dynasty!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Yue's mouth, then he lifted up the ribbon and greeted the mission. At the same time, he raised the flag in his hand high and said in a long voice: "The Emperor of Han is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, welcome the noble envoys of the friendly countries!"
As he said that, he bowed to the mission, bowed slightly, and showed his politeness.
This is also one of the differences between diplomacy in the Han Dynasty and diplomacy in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the tribute system had been established. In order to show the prosperity and greatness of the vast dynasty, the monarchs and ministers often used to pretend to be fat, allowing many smart people to take advantage of it.
Even in the late Qing Dynasty, even though he had been taught by the British and French ships and cannons, he refused to open his eyes to see the world, but instead buried his head in the sand as an ostrich.
It even made a joke about the "Late Qing Su Wu".
This is not the case for Han!
During the Han Dynasty, foreign vassals paid tribute to the emperor, which was an obligation and a responsibility!
To pay homage to the emperor and offer tributes, this is the glory of the foreign vassals!
Not a very close and important vassal state, the Han emperor is unwilling to accept tribute!
Because in Han Dynasty, although he would not give back the gift after accepting the tribute from the vassal states, the emperor of Han had to assume the obligation to protect the tribute.
If a vassal state is in chaos or disaster occurs, as the sect leader, he must be rescued!
The so-called "promotion and destruction of a country, succession and succession" is just like this!
For example, a few days ago, King Yelang and King Dian entered the court and paid tribute to the emperor's ivory, pearls, rhinoceros horns and other objects.
The emperor only gave the King Yelang and King Dian to fifty pieces of silk each to this praise.
But these two vassal kings were as happy as if they had won the Super Mark Six lottery!
This is indeed a big prize!
Because, this means they hold a thick golden thigh that cannot be thicker!
From then on, the royal families of these two kingdoms were guaranteed by the Han Dynasty.
No one can destroy them, both internally and externally.
Unless the rebels or foreign enemies can cross the body of the Han army!
Later generations of Shanshan, Che Shi, Wusun, and even the Xiongnu were willing to be the good daughter of the Han Dynasty's father because they tasted this sweetness.
The Huns were even more loyal to the Liu family dynasty of the Han Dynasty than the Han people!
And for those barbarians who do not belong to the tribute system.
The Han people basically only have two attitudes.
The first one is the Huns and Dayuan model.
The enemy is reasonable no matter what means they use to strike and attack.
Li Guangli slaughtered Luntai and returned to Xiangru slaughtered Fule. Many scholars and officials were too lazy to even talk about it.
The barbarians and beasts are rebelling against the Han genius, and they deserve to die!
The second type is curiosity, scrutiny and observing forms.
Similar to later biologists, a new species was discovered in nature.
Wow, it turns out that there is such a magical national system and culture? It is worth studying and studying! What if you find something useful, it may have some reference value for yourself!
The Western Han Dynasty had the same attitude towards the Son of the Son, the Daxia, the Eastern Han Dynasty had the same attitude towards the Aki and the Daqin.
And Wusun is a gray area free from the middle of these two modes.
The Han had some desires and plans for him.
However, because they are far away, they can't stretch their claws for the time being. Based on the "family intercourse and near attack" thinking passed down from the Warring States Period, the Han Dynasty's attitude towards Wusun was both curious and intimate, and also had hidden ambitions.
Because this ambition is not yet able to achieve its power for the time being, it quietly hides.
On the surface, he respects Wusun and Wusun envoys very much.
But in fact, I always find ways to penetrate and influence.
In history, Chang Hui and Princess Jieyou sang a double act, successfully using the internal contradictions of Wusun to dismember Wusun into two parts, causing this powerful country that should have taken advantage of the decline of the Huns and even dominated the Western Regions to decline.
But Zhang Yue did not want to follow this old path that has been proven to be successful.
