One day, Ban Chao was discussing the training with Asalan, and suddenly the spies came to report, Shache and other countries heard that the Han envoys had withdrawn, so they instigated the first lieutenant to provoke Shule, and now two border cities of Shule have been obtained, and the hearts of Shule people are floating, and the king of Shule is ready to lead the whole country to surrender to Shache. Ban Chao listened and said: "I let go of the Shache country to leave Huai, in order to tie up Shache and Shule Tong, it seems that Shache King is not willing to buy it, I will immediately go to Shule to repel Shache and Weitou, and recover the lost two cities." Asalan said: "All countries should demarcate their borders to defend themselves, and if a small country dares to provoke for no reason, it should be attacked." I am willing to lead my own soldiers with the long history to ask for the captain's head. Ban Chao said: "The general is in danger of the country's safety, and he can't be moved lightly, and I will lead a thousand elite soldiers to unite with the Shule army, and I will definitely be able to deal with the captain and Shache." ”

The next day, Ban Chao led Kunlun Xiao and other 1,000 elite horsemen to leave Khotan, and came to Shule in the next day. Hu Tou was very surprised to see Ban Chao's return, and when the people of Shule heard that Ban Chao had returned, the crowd was excited, and the morale of the army was high.

Ban Chao and Kunlun laughed at the business, Shule had been settled, and they must explain the reasons for disobeying the order to the emperor as soon as possible, and ask the emperor to send troops to help in order to reset the capital. Ban Chao said: "Kunlun Xiao, your child is my right-hand man, today in order to move the emperor, support me to stay in the Western Regions, please return to the court to ask for my life, I wait for my brother's life, right and wrong, I want my brother to be cautious!" Be careful! Kunlun smiled and said, "Don't worry, leopard head!" This trip must live up to high expectations and return satisfied. After speaking, Kunlun Xiao carried the notebook and led more than ten riders along the Shanshan straight road and went straight to the capital.

However, it was said that Guo Chun and He Gong would return to Luoyang in a day, and He Gong would return to his hometown to visit his relatives, and Guo Chun went straight to Gongsun Miao's mansion.

When Gongsun Miao saw Guo Chun coming back, he asked: "Is Ban Chao going back to Beijing as ordered?" In order to show his merit, Guo Chun deliberately added fuel and vinegar and said: "The people of Nashule died and stayed in Ban Chao, and the general Li Xi committed suicide when he saw that Ban Chao returned to the dynasty in accordance with the order." I saw that Ban Chao was shaken, so I threatened the lives of his family according to the instructions of the adults, and said that Ban Chao would return to the court in accordance with the order. Gongsun Miao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ban Chao and said, "You have worked hard all the way!" Go to the tent and take a thousand taels of silver, and go back and rest. Guo Chun listened to his heart, a thousand taels of silver is so he wants to take it, but it is not cost-effective to go to the Western Regions for a thousand taels of silver, how can Lord Guo forget about me going down as a county order, rubbed his nose with his hand and whispered: "Thank you, Lord reward!" My lord, I would like to experience it below, and please don't forget it. Gongsun Miao remembered that before leaving, he promised to come back and let him be a county order, so he said: "Discuss with Situ tomorrow and let you go to Guanzhong to make a county order." Guo Chun "pounced" knelt down and kowtowed again and again, and said in his mouth: "Thank you for cultivating!" Thank you for cultivating! After arriving in the county, I will never forget the grace of adults, and I will repay my lords every year. Guo Chun knew that Guanzhong was a rich place, and any county would be able to do it for a few years, and he couldn't help but close his mouth when he thought of this.

Gongsun Miao said: "No thanks. Oh, where does Ban Chao live, does he have a performance book to present to the emperor. Guo Chun said: "My lord, Ban Chao sent General He Gong back to the court, he returned to the court from the south of the province, I heard that he married a princess in Shanshan country, and he wanted to bring this woman from the Western Regions back to the court." Gongsun Miao heard that Ban Chao did not return to China with Guo Chun, and knew that there was going to be an accident, so he said angrily: "Dog minion! I told you that you must take Ban Chao back to the court, you are fucking anxious to come back and grab the filial piety hat! "I didn't finish the sentence" Smack! The ground gave Guo Chun a slap, Guo Chun was stunned, and only heard Gongsun Miao say: "Get out!" Guo Chun covered his face and hurriedly retreated.

Kunlun Xiao and others crossed the desert, crossed the Gobi, worked hard, and came to Dunhuang County through the pass. At this time, Geng Bing, the general of the expedition to the west, was stationed in Dunhuang. Dunhuang is the westernmost of the four counties west of the Han River. It was adjacent to the Western Regions and was an important military town at that time.

Kunlun discussed with Ban Chao before Xiaoxing, thinking that Geng Bing was the founding father of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Geng Yi, who was well versed in the art of war and brave and good at fighting. The previous time to break the car division, Ban Chao, Kunlun Xiao and Geng Bing met several times, and the two sides sympathized with each other and talked quite speculatively. Kunlun smiled and returned to the court to ask for instructions, so he first came to Dunhuang to meet Geng Bing.

Dunhuang Zhengxi General's Mansion is located in Dunhuang City, on the north street of the cross street, opposite is Dunhuang Taishou Mansion. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up the four counties of Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Wuwei and Zhangye Hexi, Dunhuang has been an important frontier town in the northwest of the Han Dynasty. In the late period of the Western Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was in turmoil, Dunhuang was occupied by Kui Huan and Dou Rong successively, because the two of them successively adopted the policy of protecting the territory and securing the people, so the four counties of Hexi were less destroyed, and they had the convenience of Qilian snow water irrigation, forming the granary of the northwest. As soon as Kunlun smiled into Dunhuang, he felt like a wanderer returning to his hometown. But I saw that the streets were full of people and shops, and there was an atmosphere of peace and prosperity. Kunlun Xiao and the others didn't care about taking a closer look at the street scene, so they went straight to the Zhengxi General's Mansion.

Geng Bing heard that Kunlun Xiao, the general of the Western Regions Long History Department, was visiting, and hurriedly went out to greet him. Geng Bing saw Kunlun laughing and his entourage, so he said, "General Kunlun is hard, please take a seat." Kunlun smiled and said, "Thank you." I was entrusted by the people of the territory to return to the court by the order of the chief Shi Banchao, and asked the court not to give up the Western Regions. The general has been stationed in the western part of the Han Dynasty for a long time, and he is well aware of the border situation, once the Western Regions is lost, Hexi will become a line, and the black tyrant Tiantie cavalry can enter and loot at any time, and the Han will not have a peaceful day. It is also hoped that the general will be able to make a statement to the emperor and stick to the Western Regions for national defense. Then Kunlun Xiao sent the emperor to send an envoy Guo Chunchuan to order Ban Chao to return to China, and the Shule general Li Xi killed himself, and the people of Khotan stayed in Ban Chao, Ban Chao had returned to Shule in violation of the order, and the situation of defeating Qiuzi and Weitou to re-establish Shule was conveyed to Geng Bing.
