v2.c23.s5.1

The pilgrim appends to his description of the Ts'ung-Ling the statement that "going east above 100 *li* he came to the Mêng-kan country". This, he adds, was old Tokhara territory; it was above 400 *li* in circuit and its capital was 15 or 16 *li* in circuit. In native products and ways of the people the country was very like Huoh; it had no sovereign and was under Turkish rule.
