The story of Ban Chao's mission to the western regions

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty ordered Ban Chao to go to the Western Regions to bring advanced production technology and local native products from the Western Regions. It can not only communicate things, but also promote national unity.

Ban Chao is ambitious and does not stick to details, but he is respectful and considerate. He is eloquent and well read. Unwilling to copy documents for the imperial court, he joined the army, attacked the northern Xiongnu with Dou Gu, and was ordered to go to the Western Regions. In the past 31 years, more than 50 countries in the western regions have been recovered, which has made great contributions to the return of the western regions. The official protects the western regions, which is called "Ban Dingyuan".

Anecdotal allusions

When Ban Chao copied documents for the imperial court, he worked at his desk every day. He often stopped to write a sigh and said, "As a gentleman, I should always learn from Fu Jiezi and Zhang Qian, who have made great achievements abroad, and make the marquis a title. How can I always make a living by doing this kind of pen and ink? " Others laughed at him, but Ban Chao said, "How can ordinary people understand the hearts of people with lofty ideals!"

Commemoration of future generations

Pancha City is located on the Tuman River in the southeast suburb of Kashgar City, Xinjiang. It is also called "Execa" city. According to historical records, in the 1970s, Pancha City was a leisurely Miyagi at that time, and later became the base camp for Ban Chao to manage the western regions, so some historical materials simply called it "Banchao City". The history of Panmo City is closely related to the name of Ban Chao. To commemorate Ban Chao, the Kashgar Municipal Government built the Ban Chao Memorial Park on the original site.
