Chapter 125: A sad past
In 95 A.D., Emperor He of the Han Dynasty issued an edict commending Ban Chao's outstanding exploits in the Western Regions for decades, and named him the Marquis of Dingyuan and a thousand households. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past 20 years, Ban Chao has successfully realized the great strategy of "taking the 36 countries of the Western Regions and cutting off the right arm of the Xiongnu".
He used the strategy of "razing to raze" to achieve his goal of unifying the Western Regions, using every small kingdom and oasis he already controlled to provide him with a small detachment to contain and deal with other disobedient oases and kingdoms. This is a very outstanding mercenary strategy in the history of Chinese warfare. What's more, the military expenses and supplies consumed by all these mercenaries did not need to be borne by the Han Empire, but were completely local.
It is worth mentioning that the soldiers of the Han army who led the large and small tasks of unifying the Western Regions were small in number but extremely refined. Ban Chao is indeed an excellent leader who is extremely good at building and managing a team, which is also something that Yuan Haochen particularly admires about him.
With the passage of time, fame and fortune are no longer so important to Ban Chao.
From the thirty-six soldiers to the general who crisscrossed the Western Regions, after Ban Chao completed his mission, he clearly realized the thousands of ravines left by time on him. He began to feel homesick like a recruit, missing the bright moon in his hometown.
The customs of the Western Regions are savage and vibrant, and they are a paradise for young people, but they are by no means a place for the elderly.
So, he decided to go up and write a letter, comparing himself to a lonely soul, and only wanted to be born into the Yumen Pass.
Although there were several twists and turns, Ban Chao finally returned to Luoyang, but Yuan Haochen did not follow him.
Yuan Haochen knew that although Luoyang was still prosperous, it had long been a world, and it was no longer a world that Ban Chao was familiar with.
A month after returning home from a long journey, Ban Chao will leave this world.
Bidding farewell to this man who has had a profound impact on his spiritual world and personality qualities, Yuan Haochen's next task is to pay close attention to Princess Hanyue's whereabouts and explore the real reasons and experiences of her transformation from Hanyue to Roland.
More than a month after Ban Chao's death, Princess Hanyue received a corner of the Haochen meteorite sent by Ban Chao's personal guards.
This is exactly what Yuan experienced in the underground stone chamber when he was hit by a sandstorm in Xinjiang......
Through the observation and analysis of the past 30 years, Yuan Haochen guessed that the connection between the artificial intelligence of Genesis 8 and Princess Hanyue must not be an accidental event. The reason is most likely related to the corner of the meteorite in Princess Hanyue's hand - the fragment of the [Source of Creation] from Mars.
So far, the Meteorite has reached Earth for nearly three decades, and the Genesis 8 artificial intelligence has not appeared. Hara thinks it has something to do with her dormant system.
According to the memory fragments of the Genesis 8 artificial intelligence, according to the system settings, the Genesis 8 artificial intelligence will only wake up once every hundred years, and will detect and monitor the Earth's ecosystem, and send the detection report back to the home planet where there has been no message reply.
The Genesis 8 AI must have detected the fragment of the [Source of Creation] from Mars after the next awakening (the research of the [Source of Creation] on Earth was shattered by gamma rays), so it will trace and find Princess Hanyue.
............
Time flies, time flies, the year Ban Chao died, Princess Hanyue has already bid farewell to the past in the mood for love, and is no longer a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.
In the twenty years that Princess Hanyue has been in this watery year, her life has not been smooth.
Because of sacrificing herself to rescue Ban Chao, Princess Hanyue was grounded by King Loulan for a long time. Later, out of national interests, Princess Hanyue was forcibly arranged for a political marriage, and the other party was the king of Shache Kingdom in the Western Regions, an old man old enough to be her grandfather.
After the death of the old King Shache, Princess Hanyue's tragic life did not end there. Princess Hanyue, who originally only wanted to spend the rest of her life in peace, was forcibly remarried to the new King of Shache in humiliation because of her natural beauty and delicate qualifications.
The so-called red-faced life, but that's it.
Later, due to the encroachment of the Shache Kingdom in the following chaotic war of the Western Regions, Princess Hanyue was also implicated in the war, and finally had to live in this remote town.
At this time, she was already in her early forties, if Commander Roland and Princess Hanyue were really the same person, then judging from her appearance, the age of Roland that Yuan Haochen saw was roughly the same as that of Princess Hanyue now.
"If you don't guess wrong, you can find out the whereabouts of the Genesis 8 artificial intelligence in a few years." Yuan Haochen already had a judgment in his heart.
However, the following days were still not peaceful, and Princess Hanyue was once again swept into the turmoil of war.
Before Ban Chao left the Western Regions, he was always at ease with the land of the Western Regions, and he once carefully instructed his successor: "The foreign officials are not filial sons and grandsons, and they all migrate to make up for the border with their sins." And the barbarians have the hearts of birds and beasts, which are difficult to raise and easy to defeat...... The water is clear and there are no big fish, and the government cannot be reconciled. It should be simple, wide and small, and the general outline is only. ”
However, it backfired, on the one hand, due to the incompetence of the successor, and on the other hand, because Ban Chao's near-perfect strategy was too demanding for the host of the Western Regions.
In just five years, all the 36 countries in the Western Regions rebelled.
