Chapter 1375

The city of Kabul, to the south of the city of Ramsey.

This city, the trade center of the Silk Road in the Western Han Dynasty, can continue to move westward through the city of Kabul and turn to the Central Asian countries. Of course, you can also go south through the city of Kabul to enter the hinterland of Kushan and go straight to Peshawar, the capital of Kushan.

The Lord of the city of Kabul, named liezhanqi.

The city of Kabul under this man's administration, with its geographical advantage of connecting the East and the West from south to north, is very prosperous in business.

Its population is also more than that of Langshi city and Wulei city.

Although the city of Kabul is smaller, its economic size is stronger.

The Lord's house in the city of Kabul.

It is located in Nancheng.

Because the geographical location of Nancheng is higher, even if there is any heavy rain erosion, it is impossible to affect Nancheng. The first areas to be affected are Beicheng, Dongcheng and Xicheng.

In the Lord's mansion, in the study.

Liezhan Qiduan was sitting. He was now in his early 40s. His hair was golden and his skin was white. Especially other slender, the whole person angular features, a pair of dark blue eyes, own aristocratic style.

When he sits on the throne, he has his own momentum.

Below sat an old man with black hair and yellow skin. His name was Cui Wei.

He's from Taishan county.

When he was young, Cui Wei was a businessman. He did business everywhere. He even crossed the Silk Road and went to the western regions and Kushan to do business. It was just an accident that he was unable to return to the Central Plains after being robbed in Kushan, so he stayed in the city of Kabul.

Before he was 40 years old, Cui followed lezhanqi and became a counselor of lezhanqi. He has been following lezhanqi for more than ten years. To this day, he is still the master of liezhanqi.

In other words, he is also the chief steward of liezhanqi.

Lie Zhanqi crossed his hands and put them in front of him, then said: "old Cui, now Zhang Xiu's army of Daqin has gone down from the south of LAN's city to the city of Kabul. On the other hand, in Peshawar City, Indra called on the whole noble of Kushan to send troops to fight against Zhang Xiu. Now our city of Kabul is caught in the middle. What do you say we should do? "

The strength of the city of Kabul is not weak.

However, it is mainly economic strength, but its combat effectiveness in military struggle is weaker.

So liezhanqi is worried.

Cui Wei replied: "Lord, today's city of Kabul, if you want to compete with the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, it must be unstoppable. After all, even the fighting maniacs like mahasaro were defeated by the Qin army. "

"In particular, the soldiers of Daqin were invincible and never defeated."

"Whether it was the great emperor of weisudiva or the city leaders, they could not withstand the attack of the Qin army. So with us, the strength of our city of Kabul is weaker, and it can't be stopped either. "

"Therefore, we can't be enemies with the Qin army."

Cui Wei stroked his beard under his jaw and spoke slowly.

He has a deep understanding of Daqin.

After all, these days, Cui Wei has been collecting information about Daqin. Through the businessmen, Cui Wei knows about Zhang Xiu and the rise of Daqin.

Zhang Xiu is the founding monarch.

Every monarch who founded a country is a man who has made great achievements in war and is good at fighting.

Zhang Xiu is such a person.

In particular, Zhang Xiu's side, there are a counselor, under the command of the military officers are also extremely powerful. Such a person is not easy to compete with and is hard to resist. Even in the war with Daqin, the city of Kabul will surely be defeated.

Liezhan Qi said in a deep voice: "old Cui, but the Kushan in the south is not easy to be compared with. Indra had the assistance of emperor Xu, especially encouraged all the Kushan nobles to send troops. Roughly speaking, Indra's troops this time were at least 600000 troops. We can't resist such combat effectiveness. "

Cui Wei nodded his head and said, "what the LORD said is true. Indra's strength is very strong now. If it is the power of Indra alone, it is not worth mentioning. After all, Indra has more than 200000 troops. "

"But emperor Xu is not a simple man."

"Although the emperor had to go north to LAN's city, he was humiliated by Zhang Xiu, and even played by Zhang Xiu."

"But we still can't ignore the ability of emperor Xu."

"It's a great character."

"Under the protection of emperor Xu, Indra's strength and combat effectiveness are extremely strong. The strength of our city of Kabul alone will not be able to resist the army of Indra. "

Cui Wei said: "so it seems that we are not suitable to be enemies with Indra."

Liezhanqi couldn't help listening.

Zhang Xiu, he can't afford to offend.

Don't provoke him, too.

This is the existence that he can't provoke. For a moment, liezhanqi just feels big.

Although the column accounted for Qi, according to the normal situation, should be attributed to the Kushan. But the problem is that if he belongs to Kushan now, he will have to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. At that time, he will be defeated. So, in liezhanqi's heart, there are still some ideas.Liezhanqi said: "old Cui, now both sides can't afford to offend. You'd better tell us what we should do to solve the present predicament. "

Cui Wei stroked the moustache under his jaw and said, "Lord, in fact, the current situation is not very complicated. Even, it can be said that it is actually very simple. "

Lie Zhanqi and Cui Wei have been together for more than ten years, and they already know their roots.

For Cui Wei, he believes it.

So Cui Wei said, lie Zhanqi immediately relieved, said: "Sir, you say the current situation, what should we do? I'm sure it won't hurt me, sir

Cui Wei said: "Lord, under the current situation, no one can afford to offend or provoke. Then, let it be. Who leads the army to reach the city of Kabul first, then the city master will go to which side. In this way, it's quite a simple thing for the Lord of the city. "

When liezhanqi heard it, he nodded.

This is really a way.

However, it is also quite helpless, because it is a random choice.

Liezhan Qineng, as the leader of one side of the city, and even the shepherd for more than ten or twenty years, is not a simple person. He has his own mind and ideas, so he said: "Sir, which side of the Qin army has a better chance of winning the battle with Kushan?"

Cui did not think about it for a long time and said: "if we really want to evaluate, which side has a better chance of winning. Then, the Qin army has more advantages and more chances to win. "

Liezhanqi said, "why?"

Cui Wei took the tea cup on the desk before he got up. After a sip of tea, he cleared his throat and said slowly, "in fact, it's not very meaningful to analyze it one by one."

"Just two things."

"The first thing is the battle of Tianmen Mountain."

"In the beginning, Indra and Dixu had a great advantage. It not only has a large number of troops, but also has the advantage of favorable location. But in the end, Zhang Xiu stealthily attacked the rear, so that he lost all his advantages and fled in confusion. "

"The second thing is that the emperor must go north to Lanshi city."

"It is the emperor's intention to delay time and gain more time for Indra so that Indra can gather more strength as soon as possible. But emperor Xu was not only greatly humiliated, but also saw through the plot by Zhang Xiu. "

Cui Wei said: "these two things are enough to explain some problems. So Lao Jiu thinks that Zhang Xiu has more advantages in the competition between the two sides. "
