To be honest, in the 97th century, in the first century, in the ninth year of Yongyuan, Han Hedi , under the order of the guardian Banchao of the Western Regions, there was an outstanding diplomat called Ganying . He once served as the mission of the Qin State , which is the ancient Roman Empire located at the western end of Asia and the east coast of the Mediterranean . As the end of the Silk Road across the Eurasian continent, it is known as the "Early West of the World".

Due to the frequent economic and trade exchanges, I heard the descriptions of many Western Regions merchants. "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of the Western Regions" once recorded in detail: "The Great Qin State has thousands of miles, and there are more than 400 cities. There are dozens of people in the small country. Stones are used as cities. There are pine cypress pine 2 100 trees and grass. They are all covered with hair and embroidered clothes and embroidered carts, ride in and out of the baggage, beating drums, and building flags and banners."
This is very consistent with historical facts. Roman legion is invincible. The military government has many colonies. The city is built with large stones and is extremely tall and sturdy. Roman Men are used to bald short hair and like to wear clothes with beautiful embroidery. They are very good at building roads. The city is well-connected, and most of them are comfortable and pleasant green parks, ponds, fountains, cypress flowers and plants. Roman rides a car with white curtains and travels across.
even has a precise record of Rome, unlike the Chinese emperor's family, saying, "The king has no ordinary people, they all simply establish wise men. The country's disasters and storms are from time to time, and they are abolished and reincarnated. Those who are released are willing to be demoted will not complain. There are similar to China..."
Rome Senate ruins
Ancient Roman Head of the head of ancient Rome is not a fixed family bloodline father died and his son took the step brother to the end of his brother, but Senate recommended the wise men. If the disaster relief in China is not a bad job and does not do well, they will be abolished and newly reincarnated, and the dismissed has no complaints.
Facing such a huge empire with a wealthy nation, many civilizations and a large population across Europe, Asia and Africa, Gan Ying was also full of energy and fighting spirit before leaving. He embarked on a long journey with a heart of fulfilling his mission. Through the Hexi Corridor, he went deep into the desert Gobi, along the Shule and Shache , west into the Pamir Mountains, through Puli, to Dayuezhi , and then west out of the Aman Kingdom and Spin Kingdom.
Ganying made Daqin
After many years of long journeys, crossing the Pamir Plateau , crossing the branch (Two Rivers), entering the Aquila (Ancient Persia). After several years, under such primitive traffic conditions, he finally arrived at the "West Sea". The West Sea is likely to be the Persian Gulf, close to the ancient Roman Empire. But the cunning merchants of Rest Empire , you fight and get online, and we still make a lot of money. You should know that at that time, the price of silk made in China was a pound of gold, while the price of pork was only 31 pounds of pork on Han Dynasty . Furthermore, the once glorious Absent Empire had declined at this time and was captured by ancient Rome three times. For various reasons, they deliberately fooled Gan Ying: "The sea water is vast, and those who come and go will be saved in March. If you encounter a slow wind, there will be two years old, so those who enter the sea will bring three-year-old food. There are things that make people think about the earth and love each other, and there are deaths."
Siren
That is to say, this sea is boundless, and if it is smooth, it will take March. If it is against the wind, you will have to float in the vast ocean for at least two years, and you have to prepare three years of food and drinking water on the boat.
This is not the most dangerous. The "sea good at making people think about the earth and love each other" is the Siren Siren in the mythology that was widely circulated in ancient Rome. It is a kind of Siren Siren with a human face and bird body. It flies on the sea and has a heavenly voice. It often uses singing to seduce the passing sailors and causes the ship to sink. The crew becomes the Chinese food of the Siren Siren, and all sailors are terrified. This is also the first time that the Greek myth has appeared in the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of the Western Regions" in the Chinese context, which seems very bizarre.
Gan Ying's roadmap for mission
Gan Ying was indeed frightened at that time, and believed it, so she turned around and returned. This time, the passing of Daqin made Eastern countries take the initiative to seek exchange attempts with Western countries, which is no less meaning than discovering Columbus New World - it failed and lost the excellent opportunity to be loaded into the record of exchanges and communications of human civilizations thousands of years in advance. Gan Ying's starlight has since been saddened by Zhang Qian and Chen Tang, which can be said to be a thousand-year regret. Kang Youwei, the Reform Reform in the late Qing Dynasty, once said heartbrokenly, "Gan Ying was foolish and cowardly, and failed the class of the past . To this day, China and the West have not been civilized for thousands of years and cannot trade, which is the great sin of Gan Ying."
Gan Ying travels west
To be honest, he talked too heavily, and Gan Ying gained a lot, which was also considered the farthest westward expedition for the Chinese thousands of years ago. It was also the first Chinese to arrive in the Persian Gulf. He talked about the mountains and rivers and enhanced the Chinese's understanding of Central Asian countries at that time, and it was also great.
