The weather is high and dry in summer, the grass color is slightly lighter, the sky is blue and white, dust splashes below, and traces of people appear.

In the grassland in the northern desert, a group of Huns were driving the flock of sheep and heading south.

Among this group of people was a young girl riding on a tall horse.

The people driving the flock around seemed to be awe of her and were a little far away.

But she seemed to be used to it and did not feel it was inappropriate. She hummed pastoral songs and slowly looked at the boundless grassland Gobi.

She was the high priest of the Huns and was passed down from her grandfather. Although she was a woman, it did not affect her prestige in the eyes of the Huns.

Even under the general premise, a woman had a low status in the eyes of the Huns and became a high priest, she was also one of the most powerful people among the Huns.

Ge is her name, and she doesn't care whether this name sounds nice or not, because it was chosen by her mother, who was a Han Chinese, and her mother was rescued by her father from the Huns.

Even though Junchen Shanyu was dissatisfied with her father's obsession with Han women and killed her mother, her father still used his life to save her from Jiuyou.

Her mother accompanied her for three years, taught her some Chinese language, and then left. With the help of her grandfather, she returned to the border city of the Han Dynasty, where her mother's real home was.

It's ridiculous that her mother never loved her father because her father was a Hun. Her mother just wanted to use her father as an umbrella to save her life first and then return to the Han Dynasty.

Her mother still remembered her, so she stayed with her for three years and then left resolutely.

Ge Bu hated her mother because the two tribes had already had the same power and water and fire, and behind each other, there was an entangled blood hatred.

Every time the Huns went south on a large scale, they took away tens of thousands of Han people, trampled on thousands of acres of Han Dynasty land, and killed border soldiers. This was a bloody feud.

Her mother was a wise man. Even though Ge's father sacrificed his life with death, she still remembered that she was from the Han Dynasty and that the border people were not allowed to move inward or outward, and abide by the rules of the Han people.

Ge was almost taken back to the Han Dynasty by her mother. Ke Ge's grandfather and the high priest disagreed. When her mother wanted to go back, she had to rely on the help of the high priest. Even if she survived and was protected by him, she had to agree.

Ge's mother was named Zeng Ci, a very ordinary name, born and raised by Han people.

The reason why a girl named Ge was because Zeng Ci felt that she was a life that should not be born under the sword, and she used martial arts to stop Ge. She hoped that behind the force was to stop Ge. Ge means martial arts, and the extreme was the opposite.

The high priest died three years ago. Ge felt that there was no hope in life. It was not until she was welcomed as the high priest that she rekindled her fighting spirit.

Ge's grandfather, the high priest, passed the holy fire to her, and she was responsible for the Huns. The high priest lineage is the representative of the human world given to the Huns by the Sun God, and her authority is supreme.

She was raised by the high priest since she was a child, so she naturally knew what she wanted to do. This time she came down from Wolf Juxu Mountain, and asked God for blessings to relieve the pressure of not growing grass on the grassland and not fat cattle and sheep.

Halfway through, I followed a group of tribe members who went south to herd sheep and horses. Unfortunately, her identity was exposed. These people were not very close to her. They felt that the female high priest was like a saint and should not be contaminated by the filth of the secular world.

After several days like this, the depressed Ge finally parted ways with the group of people.

She has always been lively and can't stand it without saying a word. It is common for her to rush on her own. If she can't speak, she will naturally leave alone.

The headquarters of Yizhixie Chanyu, which was hidden in the desert, is guarding the Juyan area. This is where Ge wants to return.

...

On the way back from Ge, a team of Han people were captured by the Shanyu on the borders of Loulan, Han Dynasty and the Huns. They were Zhang Qian and his team.

Although the Kingdom of Loulan was in good terms with the Han Dynasty, it was always forced by the Huns behind their backs. The King of Loulan was not very happy, but he had to accept reality after all.

The Han Dynasty's border generals were not allowed to send troops too far away from the pass without the emperor's order, so the King of Loulan could not count on Han Anguo and others at all.

If it was time for the Han emperor's order, everything would be too late and he had to consider his people, so King Loulan still became a puppet of the Huns.

When Shanyu asked to tell the whereabouts of Zhang Qian and his group, King Loulan said that without the protection of the old priest, Zhang Qian could not escape the clutches of the Shanyu's personal soldiers and was arrested in a mess.

In fact, being captured by Shanyu was not the most painful thing for Zhang Qian, but his mission was not completed, which made him feel cold.

He was like a savage all the way, and after thousands of difficulties, he came to the Lanshi City, the capital of the Great Yuezhi. Unfortunately, King Dayue had already lost his ambitions.

The hatred that was beaten by Maodun Shanyu, which was like a stray dog, not only did not get stronger and stronger, but gradually faded away. He could not listen to Zhang Qian's persuasion.

After staying in Lan's City for half a year without success, Zhang Qian chose to go back decadently. Although the appointment was not completed, the family still had to go back.

What can I do if I don’t go back? Could it be that I rely on the remaining opinions of the dozen or so Han Chinese people? This is too difficult and he can’t do it completely.

Most of the people of Dayue have never heard of them in the Han Dynasty, let alone believe in a Han Chinese.

There is no greater sorrow than death in the heart. The three souls are like Zhang Qian who lacks one soul, without the sharpness and caution of the past. Otherwise, with his nearly ten thousand miles of experience on the grassland, how many years of experience would he be easily captured by the Great Khan of the Xiongnu?

On the way back to Juyan, Yizhixie Shanyu intended to make him turn against him, and specially asked the Bank of China to persuade him to rebel against the Han Dynasty and surrender to the Huns.

Not only did Zhang Qian not agree, he also scolded the Bank of China fiercely. He had heard Wei Wan give lectures to Liu Che when he was around Liu Che.

He felt like Liu Che's empathy and family hatred.

The Bank of China said the slanderous advice without success, and said a lot of Zhang Qian's ungratefulness. When Yi Zhixie Shanyu heard this, he threw a can of wine to the ground, smashed it into pieces, causing someone to torture, and beat Zhang Qian to his body torture.

Zhang Qian, who did not surrender, was detained and suddenly remembered Liu Che's instructions. He began to stop being depressed and regarded the Han Festival as a sustenance, and regarded what he saw and heard along the way as important news.

Going back to tell the Chinese people about a different Western Region is what he wants to do when he goes back.

Ge has a good friend, who doesn't care about her identity. Her name is Luzhu, and she was rescued by Ge from a slave.

As for why she was saved, one was because she was young and only about ten years old, and the other was because she was a Han Chinese.

Ge looks more like a Han people. She is full of interest in Han people. Her mother is Han people. She wanted to find her very early.

As soon as she came back, Ge went straight to her tent. She brought a lot of gifts to Luzhu.
