In the vast history, there are always some little people who are forgotten by later generations. Against the backdrop of many historical and cultural celebrities who have made great achievements and shocked the world, their light sometimes seems insignificant, but it is enough to influence history and educate future generations!

Up and down 5,000 years of long river, concise and concise 24 history, this kind of little people, as vast as the stars, they have never been passed on by the tree monument, only by the historians! But this pen is enough, not only revealing its historical status and historical value, but also providing endless space for future generations to reverie!

I have been conceiving this character for four or five years, and I have nothing to do today, and it coincides with the National Day, so I am ready to use youthful brushwork to tell history, and continue to write this person's glorious life in the form of a biography! This book will be written with the purpose of not being confused about major events, figuring out when you are young, not seeking everything, but seeking reasonableness, and showing his glorious life from the concise historical text!

With the help of limited historical materials, I often let my thoughts wander in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty and wander in the land of five Indias! Thinking back to how he would have had an accident, how he would humbly ask for advice, how he would solve the problems that arose, how he would communicate with others with his heart, how he would put life and death out of the way, how he would put the interests of the country first, and how he would spread the prestige of Datang far and wide......

The little person we talked about today is a figure who was drowned in the long river of history by many famous generals during the Zhenguan period, and his name is Wang Xuance! In fact, his profession is only a small history of the head of the right guard (equivalent to today's bureau chief level), and even the date of birth and death is difficult to verify! In the "Old and New Tang Books", there is only one paragraph of 341 words of record; In "Zizhi Tongjian", Mr. Sima Guang only added a small paragraph in addition to these 341 words, adding 295 words! However, this does not affect its due historical merits, nor does it affect its great achievements that earth-shattering changes in foreign history!

In the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian carved out the Western Regions and opened up cultural exchanges between the East and the West; The Eastern Han Dynasty had Ban Chao to strengthen the Western Regions, which was naturally another time, which greatly drove a lot of communication between the Han Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions! Since the Tang Dynasty unified China, in view of the foundation of the Sui Dynasty for more than 30 years, coupled with the cultural and martial arts of Gaozu Taizong in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions have gradually calmed down, and the melodious camel bells have resounded through the sky along the Hexi Corridor with abundant water and grass! Of course, after the Hexi Corridor, there should naturally be a person who maintains relations with the countries of the Western Regions, maintains communication, and establishes a solid friendship for this tranquility, and he came into being. A person who seems to be a small person in the Tang Dynasty, but he has done a feat that has reverberated for a long time in a foreign land!

I still remember that Mr. Sima Guang recorded his exploits as follows: At the beginning, the corpse of the king of Zhongtianzhu Luo Yi was the strongest, and the four kings of Tianzhu were all ministers. Xuan Ce sent envoys to Tianzhu, and all countries sent envoys to pay tribute. Will corpse Luo Yi many pawns, the country is in turmoil, his minister Alona Shun self-reliance, send Hu soldiers to attack Xuan Ce, Xuan Ce handsome servants 30 people to fight, invincible, all captured, Alona Shun plundered the tribute of all countries. Xuan Ce escaped and fled to the western border of Tubo to conquer the soldiers of neighboring countries with a book, and Tubo sent 1,200 elite people to Tubo and more than 7,000 horsemen to it. Xuan Ce and his deputy Jiang Shiren and the soldiers of the two countries entered the tea and Luocheng where Zhongtianzhu lived, fought for three days, broke it, beheaded more than 3,000 people, and drowned 10,000 people. Alona Shun abandoned the city and left, collected the remnants, and fought with Shiren, broke it again, and captured Alonashun. The rest of the people served their concubines and princes, blocked the Qiantuo Weijiang, Shiren attacked, the crowd was defeated, and his concubines and princes were captured, and 12,000 men and women were captured. So Tianzhu shook and the city gathered more than 580 people. Capture Arona, obediently. Take Xuan Ce as the doctor of Chaosan. ”

This is its most glorious feat, which can be called: one man destroys a country! But behind this achievement, it is even more because there is a strong Datang as a solid support!!

Wang Xuance led the Tang Dynasty Mission, the first mission to the southwest, although there was no earth-shattering ghost and god feats, but felt the snowy plateau's diligent pursuit of new things; experienced the beautiful scenery of Nibora and resolved the crisis that it seemed should not be resolved; Witnessed the unification of Tianzhu, appreciated the eloquent and eloquent King of the Sun, met the rather brutal Alonashun, and met the gentle Queen Raga Sriri. Not only did he participate in the five-year uncovered conference, but he also observed the wonderful performance of Master Xuanzang. It is because of him that Emperor Zhenguan Li Shimin knows and understands a generation of senior monk Xuanzang!

The first volume, that is, his dream casting road, made some real foreshadowing for the second volume of the famous Tianzhu. Life cannot be achieved overnight, often we pay attention to a person's most brilliant time, but who can pay attention to his growth path! The night before dawn is the darkest time, and the road before fame is naturally the most difficult! This road of growth is not only difficult, but also full of thorns; It is not only worth remembering, but also worth learning from!

In the first volume, we will address some of the following questions:

Was Master Xuanzang's original destination really Tianzhu? What is the relationship with Wang Xuance? What is Wang Xuance's life experience, how did he grow up little by little, and how did he make these friends? How did Wang Xuance start, how did he become a general, how he was framed, and how was he assigned to Lingnan to become the commander of Huangshui County? What is its political performance in Huangshui, what has it brought to Huangshui, and what has changed?

Who is Wang Xuance's Bole, what kind of life experience has it brought him, and what kind of life philosophy has it told him? How was his relationship with Songtsen Gampo and Princess Wencheng established? Why was he chosen to send an envoy to the southwestern provinces to continue his friendship with King Nibharodva?

On your first mission to India, who did you meet, what did you do, and what countries did you visit? In the splendid palace of the King of the Ring of the Sun, how did they meet Master Xuanzang, what did the two of them communicate, and what did they talk about? How Master Xuanzang showed his erudition and talent at the Wusha Conference, he will write it for you one by one according to the historical materials of "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty"!

And the second volume is the most glorious chapter of his life, which will vividly show his sassy and heroic posture to the nations! How to make the Tianwei of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin's benevolence and righteousness, and the concept of governing the country of loving the people spread far and wide in the Western Regions...

And the third volume will show you a different view of Buddhist history......

Note: The Datang Mission is naturally a group, not a single person can represent the Tang Dynasty, so this book will use two virtual historical figures, the smug Zhou Zeng and the calm and dignified Chen Maocai, instead of the real historical figure Jiang Shiren and many members of the mission! Write about the lively style and righteousness of the Tang Mission!
