乌孙归汉与西汉外交

A Survey of the Diplomacy of Western Han Dynasty and the Kingdom Wusun's Submission

乌孙为西域大国,在汉、匈关系中一度举足轻重,西汉“断匈奴右臂”的战略,首先因乌孙而提出,进而拓展为对于整个西域的宏伟设想。西汉采取了联姻与军事威慑相结合的外交策略,促使乌孙的立场由“观望”转为“归汉,”这是西汉外交在“大宛之役”后的重大突破,亦对古代中亚国际关系产生了深远影响。

Wusun used to play an important role in the relationship of Western Han dynasty and Huns. The foreign policy ＂To cut off Huns＇ right arm＂ was firstly based on Wusun and then expanded as a grand blueprint for the whole Western Regions. With the traditional ＂Chinese-barbarian idea＂,Han＇s dominator adopted diplomatic marriage and military deterrence, which changed Wusun＇s standpoint from ＂hesitation＂ to ＂submission＂.Wusun＇s submission to Han dynasty was the significant breakthrough after the hattle with Dawan Kingdom,and had a far-reaching influence to the ancient international relationship in Central Asia.
