Frustrated Hu translated Lu Bu's words, and the middle-aged man hurriedly nodded again and again, "That's right, I am the number one person in the development of the Intelligence Department of the Han Empire in the Kushan Empire, and I am my own person, this is my proof!" ”

He took out a jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to Frustrated Hu, who also took out a jade pendant of the same texture from his bosom, and the two jade pendants were just right to form a bat pattern, which fit tightly.

Frustrated Hu nodded to Lu Bu, and then looked at the middle-aged man in Guishuang, "Then let me ask you, the desert is lonely, what is the next sentence?" ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly replied: "The sun sets over the long river!" I'll never forget that. ”

Frustrated Hu turned to Lu Bu again, "Your Majesty, this time there must be nothing wrong, this poem of yours is not known to outsiders at all, and it has not been circulated in the Han Dynasty, and the Guishan people can't fake it if they want to." ”

Of course, Lu Bu knew that he couldn't fake it, this was Tang Shi, which was brought to the Han Dynasty by himself to use, and it was the most suitable password for the intelligence department.

"Okay, I believe in your identity, what kind of identity do you have in the Kushan Empire? To be able to know so many secrets of Guishan? I'm interested! Lu Bu asked with a smile at the middle-aged man.

When the middle-aged man heard Lu Bu's inquiry, he was very reserved and bent down slightly to Lu Bu and said, "Your Majesty, I am the prince of the Kushan Empire, my name is Mags, and I am the uncle of the king of Kushan. ”

Lu Bu suddenly realized, it turned out to be the case, "I really didn't expect that this number one undercover agent turned out to be you." ”

"Actually, it's not that complicated, I'm only eight years older than Bo Tiao, and I was originally the heir to the throne of the previous ones, but Bo Tiao was favored by my brother, that is, the first king, and mastered the military power of the Kushan Empire very early."

"And in order to avoid suspicion, I only have the strength of three divisions, that is, the military power of my fiefdom province, and in order to prevent Bo Tuo from topping me, I have to deliberately pretend to be mediocre and incompetent to deceive him."

"Later, by chance, I met Wolf Four, who was also my upline."

Frustrated Hu explained to Lu Bu that Wolf Si was the person in charge of the Han Intelligence Department stationed in the Kushan Empire, the first Han intelligence officer to come to the Kushan Empire to develop, and the intelligence network of the Han in Guishan was created by him.

Lü Bu nodded, "Your trick, the Chinese call it to hide the sky and cross the sea, it seems that you are not only smart but also forbearing, do a good job, and can pretend that your grandson is the highest level!" ”

Lu Bu's compliment made Mags very useful, "Your Majesty, I asked to see you this time because I wanted to discuss a big matter with you. ”

Lu Bu knew his identity, and he had actually guessed a few points about his intention, "No problem, you need Dahan to provide you with any help, just ask, I believe you will make the right choice!" ”

"I really need the help of the big man, in order to borrow a knife to kill, he swapped my legion with Sauter's legion, and my legion defended Kabul City, and Saute went back to defend Peshawar."

"I want to do what I want, let's put on a show in Kabul, I pretend to lose a lot and run back to Peshawar, I'm his uncle, he won't kill me, he will only blame me."

"Then, when your army is in the city, I will find a way to open the city gate and welcome the Han army into the city, let's catch Bo Diao or kill him together, and then I will inherit the Kushan throne, I can sign a peace treaty with the Han on any terms, as long as the Han supports me to ascend the throne."

When Lu Bu heard this, he really didn't expect it, okay, Lu Bu is the best at acting in this kind of play, and the two sides immediately determined the siege time and siege method, as well as the next contact method.

The two men said goodbye and returned to their base camps, and the Han army continued to advance until the city of Kabul.

After a day's rest, the Han army began a fierce siege battle, with artillery roaring and blowing the walls of Kabul beyond recognition.

A large number of Kushan soldiers were "killed" in the shelling, including Prince Mags's Kandahar Division.

This was followed by the siege of the Han army, and the defenders paid a great price, and many infantry who were not of the Kandahar division were "killed".

The Han army sealed off the surroundings of Kabul tightly, and all the Haidongqing were released, and not a single carrier pigeon could fly away from Kabul.

After five days of continuous siege of the city, the Kushan defenders in the city broke through at night and used explosives to blow up the Han encirclement.

Prince Maggs led the remaining 50,000-strong troops to break out of the siege and fled back to Peshawar, where Prince Maggs himself was mortally wounded and unconscious, and the army was brought back by his lieutenant, the commander of the 1st Division of the Kandahar Provincial Legion.

Bo Tiao has not been able to receive the reward of his eyes lurking in the city of Kabul, so he can only rely on the scouts who went out to reconnoitre, knowing that the battle in Kabul is very fierce, and the Han army has been attacking the city for five consecutive days, and the cannon is constantly sounding.

Then he suddenly received a reply, Prince Maggs broke out, but he himself was seriously injured and unconscious, and the Third Army of the Empire lost most of it, and only 50,000 people broke out with wounds, of which less than 20,000 of Mags's Kandahar Army remained, and the army was almost wiped out.

Since Mags was already seriously injured and unconscious, Bo Tuo could not condemn him, so he could only summon the imperial doctor to treat him, temporarily hand over his troops to his lieutenant general, and join the defense of Peshawar.

Now the situation is critical, the Han army has reached the capital of the Kushan Empire, and all the strength is precious.

Most of the damned southern provinces and governorates were watching from the sidelines, refusing to send reinforcements.

Only a few Kushan-controlled provinces sent reinforcements, and now Peshawar has gathered the last of the Kushan Empire's military strength, with Sauter's legion as the core, plus the remaining royal guards, and reinforcements from all over the country, a total of about 300,000 people, but half of them are local legions or newly recruited recruits and rural soldiers.

And one of the most reluctant pieces of information that Bo Tiao received was that the third wave of reinforcements from the Han Empire had arrived on the battlefield.

This batch of reinforcements was led by Zhuge Liang, including the 8th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 2nd Cavalry Division, 4th Cavalry Division and the 5th Division of the Haotian Army.

In this way, the Han army invested 450,000 troops on the battlefield of the Kushan Empire, not counting the servant army and the armies of the allies.

The Han army and his allies surrounded Peshawar, and new artillery and a large amount of ammunition were also transported to the battlefield by Zhuge Liang's wave of reinforcements, just to supplement the large amount of consumption in the early stage.

The Han army outside Peshawar alone had 500 field artillery pieces and more than eight white mortars, which means that thousands of artillery pieces were placed outside Peshawar.

King Wave's hair had been losing a lot lately, but that didn't help him come up with anything that worked.

Although he sent the prime minister of the empire to India in the south, hoping to spend a huge fortune in exchange for reinforcements from the Indians, there is no news back so far, which is really anxious.

Although the Han army has not yet begun to attack the city, it has already set up a formation, and those cannons can be seen from the city wall.
