More than 2000 years ago, an army in ancient Rome disappeared strangely, but now it belongs to the Han nationality.

Speaking of the ancient Roman Empire, we often hear about it but few people understand it too much, and what we are talking about today is a strange event about the ancient Roman Empire. Around 53 BC, there was a grudge between ancient Rome and a neighboring country, the Parthian State, and the two sides launched a series of wars. But in a battle, the army of the ancient Roman Empire was defeated, and today's story also unfolds.

The Roman soldiers who failed in this battle could have been evacuated to the country, but there was a troop of about 6,000 people who disappeared mysteriously without any news or trace. It also caused quite a stir. At that time, the Roman Empire thought that the army was ambushed and annihilated when it was retreating, so this matter was gone.

If we just see this, we don't think there is anything wrong, but if we combine the history of China, we will find an incredible thing, this army of 6,000 people suddenly appeared in China, What's going on here? Let's go on.

It is recorded in the "Han Book" that when the Western Han and the Huns started a war, a very strange army appeared. This army did not use swords, but held a round shield to form a fish-scale array to attack. This description is very similar to the ancient Roman army at that time. From this point, it can also be seen that the Roman army at that time came to China and formed an alliance with the Huns to attack the Han army.

Later, after the defeat of the Huns, this army also captured a lot of people, but they were very different from the Han people in terms of appearance, so the emperor at that time did not embarrass them, but placed them in the Gansu area, such as They thrive here.

Today, there is an ancient city of Lijin in the south of Yongchang County, Gansu Province, which has been recording this little-known story. It is also worth mentioning that all the ethnic groups in this small village are Han and speak Chinese, but most of them look like Westerners, but of course they are Chinese.
