  We slowly headed to Xuebang, a place that was getting colder and colder. The joyful ideal is to migrate with the weather, I think it's not worth pursuing, I seem to like doing the opposite migration, such as going north in winter and south in summer. The vast territory, facing south, is a relatively neglected place, with various aspects of development lagging behind, possibly because the south is close to the ocean, we thought that across the ocean, there should be no more land, while the north seems to have vast territory, unknown how deep it is. Fifteen years ago, the imperial court had a small team that wanted to explore the secrets of the far north and the possibility of territorial expansion, the emperor waited for the team to bring back news, but fifteen years passed, they still haven't returned, which really makes people feel more mysterious. And heading west, reaching the Hengduan Mountains, it is already at the end of geography, thinking that it should be the boundary between heaven and earth, because the terrain is getting higher and higher, high to no road, no one can reach, the mountains are blocked, seemingly endless, and not like the Central Plains, every mountain can be explored for its height or not, those mountains are all snow-capped, difficult to reach, forcing people's hearts, so it should be the boundary between heaven and earth.

  But in military terms, it's not enough to just be the boundary between heaven and earth. One must investigate further, even if it is the boundary between heaven and earth, everyone wants to know what's on the other side. Similarly, the people who went 15 years ago didn't come back either. This shows that militarily, we can basically feel at ease, as people can't even walk back, let alone troops coming in. So, the only hidden danger is the north. The northern cities are generally larger and have higher walls, emphasizing the importance of defense. But I've never understood one thing: why do they need to take each city one by one? If there's enough military strength, can't they just go straight to Chang'an? Most soldiers should be guarding their respective cities.
