Maybe Guan Lu and Doro never thought that their second half of their lives would become so legendary. One was the guards of the Forbidden City who learned martial arts with their ancestors, and the other was the second-generation ancestor playboy who was living in the Eight Banners and waiting to die.

According to their original life trajectory, one is to carry a cage and hold a bird, fight cocks and dogs to ruin his life for forty or fifty years!

The other is to follow the imperial court and do unethical jobs that are specialized in destroying families!

Just like this, two people could pop up like a bunch of people when they were thrown into Sijiu City, and they could not show their differences.

But fate is so strange. Xiao Letian came to Tongzhi for four years. The Qing Dynasty was in chaos and finally kidnapped the emperor.

Guan Lu and Duolu and other groups of 49 cities have completely reversed their fate.

In Ryukyu, they received the latest military training, and the hell-like recruits cracked all the rough and stinky problems on their bodies.

Immediately afterwards, more than half of the guards were sent to Fujian by the emperor and began to train the emperor's personal army on Zuo Zongtang's territory, while the other part followed the emperor.

Doro and Guan Lu are a personal bodyguard who follows the emperor. In the past few years, they have seen the waves of Ryukyu and the exotic atmosphere of Fusang.

There is also the cruel blood of white body and black water, and the Europa, which is intertwined with blood, fire and conspiracy!

It was so dazzling that these two old men from Sijiucheng had seen such a diorama. Now they didn't dare to recognize themselves. Until the return fleet sailed to the Indian Ocean, the little emperor gave them the latest order.

Admiral General Gordon has become the first European official to Emperor Tongzhi. With the little contribution of suppressing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the heroic deeds of saving the emperor, he finally got a golden rice bowl in the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Tongzhi hired Gordon as the commander of his new army to conduct pure Western training and command.

The explorer Samuel Baker, who successfully found the source of the Nile River, was preparing for a arduous geographical investigation in Central Asia, and we followed them together.

No one knows how many secret agreements the little emperor had signed with Britain. Anyway, these guards could feel that Britain mobilized almost all the colonial resources along the way to provide the little emperor with the help.

Navy from all over the country came out to protect the safety of the little emperor, and the gift list sent by the British colonial governor could not put down the tables that had piled up!

Before the fleet arrived in India, the young emperor ordered an advance team to be dispatched from India and then headed north to Central Asia under the protection of the British military.

The first important task of this advance team is to investigate the reality of the Western Regions rebels, and the second is to secretly connect with Zuo Zongtang.

Zaichun didn't want to wait until he returned to China before sending his envoys, because he knew very well that as long as he returned to China, he would be absolutely monitored. Zaichun was still very clear about the abilities of the two empress dowagers and the princes of the Eight Banners.

Only by starting from outside the country and where their power cannot be released can we avoid the snooping of the little girl!

Doro and Guan Lu took this arduous task. Under the protection of the British expedition, they headed north into the Pamir Plateau and headed straight to the Ili River Valley.

Doro and Guan Lu were eye-opening throughout the journey. Europe was the heyday of Western civilization, and the Qing Dynasty was also the afterglow of Eastern civilization. As for Fusang, there was also a small prosperous scene.

But in Central Asia, all they can see is the vicissitudes of history and endless depression!

The Gobi Desert is full of stones and yellow sand. You can see scattered corpses in a few steps. Samuel Baker is very interested in these bones and always leads a group of people to dig.

It is really unimaginable that many of the corpses were buried under the Song Dynasty coins and even the short swords from the Tang Dynasty. In other words, these white bones were left by the Tang people and the Song people back then.

I really can't imagine that Chinese people who were more than a thousand years ago would come here, but when I think about this path that Tang Sanzang took to obtain the scriptures, everything was relieved.

Explorer Baker excitedly said to the Qing Palace guards, "It's a caravan, a caravan of Chinese people. I found fragments of silk... It's amazing. You guys had already done business here more than a thousand years ago?"

"Why don't you continue to go out now? Why should you stay in the country? It's so regrettable. If you keep doing this business and keep developing like this, God knows what changes will happen to geopolitics?"

Listening to the explorer's words, Doro and Guan Lu blushed a little. They couldn't tell the difference. They couldn't just say that those people were Han people. We Manchus didn't care about Central Asia or the Pamir Plateau.

What made Doro and the Three Jewels really feel the soul shocked was the moment when they saw the Big Buddha Bamiyang with their own eyes!

Faxian of the Jin Dynasty and Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty have been here, and have seen it with their own eyes, bowed and worshiped it, and wrote two huge Buddha statues by hand.

The Western Buddha with red cassock and the Eastern Buddha with blue cassock are mercilessly looking at the busiest business roads in Central Asia for thousands of years.

Seeing these two great Buddhas, Dora and Guan Lu suddenly found the common point of emotion, and Manchu also admired Buddha!

The two knelt down in the dust, and their eyes were filled with tears. At that moment, he suddenly found the feeling of his home in a foreign land thousands of miles away!

At that moment, thousands of years of heavy history suddenly hit their hearts. The depressed atmosphere made them unable to breathe, and crying was their only way to express their emotions.

The old saying goes, reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles! This is true. It is not wise to not read books, but if you don’t walk on the road, and if you don’t see the world with your own eyes, then you will not be able to feel the weight of the world.

The thousands of years of national migration history in Central Asia, and in just a few strokes, you will not be able to understand how much profound and profound thesis is hidden in just a few strokes.

At that moment, Doro and Guan Lu even had a philosophical enlightenment. What is Manchu? What is our rule over the past two hundred years to Chinese civilization?

Where is the future where the people will be? Who can escape the wind, frost, rain, snow, and iron horses of history?

But before Doro and Guan Lu's sudden enlightenment came out, the expedition team encountered trouble again. Some local tribal patriarchs who hated Britain began to organize a group of soldiers to attack the expedition team.

Guan Lu and Doro also had more than a dozen other guards, and they had no choice but to fight with the local tribes with Gurkha mercenaries, with four or five consecutive bloody battles. Although the expedition team won the victory, they could not resist too many local tribes.

Just like the flies in summer, batch after batch!

The expedition team had to rely on money to open the way. Their guide contacted the local tribe elders in advance, offered high tolls, and ensured that they were just expedition teams rather than military, which made the locals proud.
