Chapter 179 Everything that needs to be done has arrived (more updates will be added if the monthly ticket is over 100)
In the following days, Hu Biao and others headed towards the capital of Shanshan Kingdom, Goni City, and marched quickly with whips in full swing.
Along the way, you can see many herdsmen dressed as barbarians, driving cattle, sheep and camels to live nomadically. This is also the most important means of livelihood for the indigenous people in the Western Regions.
After they saw the envoys, they immediately hid far away, as if they were afraid of robbing their cattle and sheep.
As for the border troops of Shanshan State, they never encountered them at all along the way.
Or to be more precise, this small country does not have the concept of a border army. Their limited troops are all guarded in a few small cities.
After hurrying and hurrying, finally at around 10 o'clock in the morning that day, the city of Muni appeared in front of everyone.
At a position still five or six miles away from the city gate, Guo Xun suddenly waved his hand to signal the entire team to stop, and then made arrangements like this:
"Please quickly tidy up your clothes and then follow me into the city.
After entering the city, be sure not to act like a slut in your words or deeds, and don't let your majesty fall short of my majesty in front of a small country like Shanshan."
After hearing such an order, Hu Biao and others all responded: "Here~"
There is absolutely no such arrangement in my mind.
By the way! They didn’t understand this kind of thing, back then, no! It should have been more than 1,900 years later, before the PLA army entered places like Peking and Magic City.
I also know that outside the city, I let the soldiers prepare themselves before entering the city, so that I can show my best side.
Now it is natural for these Han angels to enter the capital of Shanshan Kingdom, so as not to be looked down upon by these barbarians with their dirty faces.
In the following time, they used the water in the water bag to freshen themselves up.
Even the weapons, armor, and horses' furs were polished until they were shiny; in short, it was just a matter of making yourself look like a dog, and then showing off in front of a bunch of barbarians.
Regarding this, many netizens are quite confident.
If it weren't for everyone riding war horses now, and the conditions didn't allow it, believe it or not, Hu Biao and others would have marched into the city in uniform.
I really want these country bumpkins to see what it means to be a civilized and mighty teacher.
It's just that they soon realized that even in terms of pretending, they were really a little more immature than Ban Dingyuan and others.
This does not refer to the method, but to the psychological advantage of being strong to the outside world...
At least it took about twenty or thirty minutes. After a lot of trouble, everyone in the envoy group was ready.
The main reason was that the two envoys, Ban Chao and Guo Xun, were a little too particular. They not only washed their heads and faces with water, but also washed away the dust from their faces.
During this process, I even put on a clean robe.
Fortunately, by the time of the Eastern Han Dynasty, people could already wear trousers under their dark robes.
Otherwise, if it were earlier, I would just use a jade pendant to hold down the hem, and a hairy leg would still be exposed from time to time when walking.
It must be that under this kind of long-sleeved and high-crown dress, Hu Biao and others could not see anything elegant.
After packing up their gear, the team continued to move forward. When they arrived in front of the city gate, they found that a group of Shanshan soldiers guarding the gate had already been prepared.
Many bows and arrows were opened at the top of the city, and the soldiers below the city raised their spears.
Facing such a small number of people in the envoy group, they all feel as if they are facing a formidable enemy.
Under such a scene, Ban Chao and Guo Xun didn't even need to speak. Gan Ying seemed to have seen something treacherous.
Immediately, he rode forward on his horse, pointed an object in his arms towards a gatekeeper, and threw it over with a 'snap'.
In his mouth, he was already shouting loudly and loudly:
"Be brave. We are envoys sent by the Han Dynasty. How dare you fight against each other? Here is our document. Please deliver it to your lord as soon as possible and ask him to come out of the city to greet you."
In his words, he simply regarded the swords and weapons in front of him as if they were nothing.
What kind of foreign affairs etiquette? There are none at all. There is only a kind of attitude that I would like to see you when I come to your door.
However, it was so miraculous. When the gatekeeper heard this, he immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Please wait a moment, the envoy, I will go and report to the king right away~"
After saying that, he immediately mounted a horse and ran towards the city.
But forty or fifty minutes later, the sound of drums in the city began to sound, and it got closer and closer.
When they appeared in front of Hu Biao and others, they found that although the Lord of Shanshan did not come, he also sent a prince and several important ministers.
With a large number of luxurious carriages and personnel, they got up to greet him.
At this time, Ban Chao and Guo Xun stepped forward to meet the princes and important ministers of Shanshan Kingdom.
During the ceremony, Prince Shanshan kept saying that the king of the country was unable to come to greet the Han angel due to the occasional cold, and he asked the angel not to mind this.
Anyway, that look was extremely respectful.
After hearing such a statement, Guo Xun and Ban Chao immediately expressed that they did not mind at all, and also expressed cordial greetings to the condition of the Lord of Shanshan.
After being polite, they got into the carriage and headed towards a nice courtyard in the city under the posture of stars accompanying the moon.
Although there is no place like a state guesthouse here, it certainly needs to be carefully arranged.
During such a process, Hu Biao and others followed suit, even as they swaggered by on the street, they were a little curious about the exotic customs of two thousand years ago.
Or maybe it's the Hu girl soliciting business on the roadside, who looks a bit strange.
But each one of them looked intently and looked a little aloof.
Their approach also won widespread praise from the people of Shanshan City. They all said that they were definitely not envoys from the Han Dynasty. They really had seen the world.
It was also at this time that the familiar sound of tapping on an old-fashioned keyboard finally sounded in the ears of many netizens.
As it rang in my ears, there was naturally a conspicuous subtitle accompanying it:
"Congratulations to the trainee commander Hu Biao, and congratulations to everyone who participated in this trial mission. The first part of this mission has been successfully completed.
Because no one died, there will be no other punishment; the next phase of the mission will be released after it is triggered."
****
That night, the king of Shanshan held a banquet in the palace, and all the prominent people in the country were present. It was a grand ceremony to honor the two Han envoys Ban Chao and Guo Xun.
Although Hu Biao and others were not able to attend, they who stayed at their residence were given a lot of food and drinks.
It's a pity that the taste of wine and meat is too inferior. The boiled white meat is really not to their taste. On the contrary, the fresh fruits have won unanimous praise from them.
In addition, most of the servants in the yard are men. Only Guo Xun and Ban Chao have two Hu women to serve them, which makes many netizens very regretful.
In this way, it is not that these people have some outrageous ideas, they just want to learn the indigenous language with those barbarian women.
Even though it is said that the smell on the other party's body is relatively strong, Xu Feng, a little elf, brought a few pieces of handmade soap made with natural materials when he came here this time.
Not only does it have a strong stain removal ability, but it is also said to have a strong fragrance after use.
In the next three days, Guo Xun and Ban Chao were still quite popular. Either the prince entertained the two envoys, or some important ministers entertained them.
Every time I come back, I bring a lot of souvenirs as gifts.
Hu Biao and others were treated to delicious food and drinks every day, but on the fifth day, everything was different.
Hu Biao and others immediately felt that the situation was a little bad.
In other words, those things that should have arrived finally arrived...
