After being strongly recommended by a group of advisers, Mu Yi also adopted this suggestion.

Foreign enemies are watching us covetously, so we really can’t allow any more hidden dangers to remain.

In the past, they were always worried that the Mongols would suddenly jump out and disrupt the progress of the war. In addition, the previous years of war really required a slowdown in development. Therefore, they had always adopted a policy of letting Persia and Kushan take their own course and restricting them as much as possible.

Now that a war is about to begin, we must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression. By the way, this can also cut off Rome’s last hope.

The moment Mu Yi gave the order, the information was directly transmitted to the hands of the major families.

When Yang Xiu received the news, he immediately eliminated all those who had handled this information.

"How could it be so fast!" Yang Xiu looked unwilling.

If he is given another ten years, no, five years, he will be able to push Arvind to the throne of Kushan. By then, he will be the Prime Minister of Kushan, a person who is truly second only to the emperor and above everyone else in the empire.

"Yang Xiu, remember who you are!" Yang Biao warned Yang Xiu who was unwilling to give in.

"I... am the head of the Yang family, and I am from Xinghan!" Yang Xiu said with a sigh.

He was unwilling to give in precisely because he knew that the Kushans would be defeated by the Xinghan. This was a fact recognized by all the major families and it was also the prerequisite for everyone to work together.

No noble family would steer a ship that was destined to sink.

Even if they could repeat the Three Families Dividing Jin and control an entire empire, they would still not be able to escape the fate of being liquidated in the end.

But they have worked so hard for so long, isn't it just to make the greatest contribution, to fulfill their own dreams, to fight for the throne, and to restore the glory of their ancestors?

The adviser of the crown prince and the prime minister of the empire represent different meanings and can make different contributions.

The latter's achievements were even enough to allow him to enter the core power circle of Xinghan, but Yang Xiu himself had no idea how much the former could achieve.

After calming down for a moment, Yang Xiu looked at Yang Biao.

When this order was sent to them, the stage of closing the net had basically begun. No matter how many ideas they had, they could only start cashing in now.

"What should we do?" Yang Xiu asked.

"You are the head of the Yang family now!" Yang Biao looked at Yang Xiu, did not give his own advice, but just said this calmly.

"Give up everything and fight to the death to protect Arvind! Even if we lose our lives, as long as Arvind is here, it is only a matter of time before our Yang family is crowned king. It is also possible that we can establish a new empire!"

After a long silence, Yang Xiu spoke in a decisive tone.

Arvind has the potential to become a military god, and this is enough for the Yang family to risk everything on.

Yang Xiu was ambitious. Since there was no chance to support Arvind to become emperor, he might as well let Arvind assist him, Yang Xiu, to establish a new empire, with him, Yang Xiu, as king.

"Go ahead and do it. I will deal with the other families!" Yang Biao had a smile on his face. Yang Xiu was indeed the unicorn of their family.

Since leaving the country, Yang Xiu has changed almost every day. In the past, he could still give some pointers based on his accumulated experience, but now Yang Xiu no longer needs his guidance at all.

Therefore, Yang Xiu became the head of the Yang family and truly controlled the Yang family. He also controlled a part of the Northern Gui officers including Arvind, which indeed made Arvind qualified to become the next Kushan emperor.

“Just go ahead and do it!”

Yang Biao looked at Yang Xiu's leaving back, squinted his eyes and thought of other aristocratic families. Once this order was given, all the major aristocratic families would take action.

But once this action is taken, chaos will occur frequently.

This is why they came to Kushan.

However, no matter how much trouble they cause, they also have a mission to maintain stability after the war.

Therefore, during the period of sabotage, someone must step forward to coordinate internal issues in order to prevent everyone from biting each other and dragging everyone down. In other words, someone needs to step forward to take the lead in coordinating the internal issues of the major families.

The reason why Yang Xiu came to see him today was actually to ask him to come forward to coordinate with the major families.

However, there is no wall that is impenetrable. When Xinghan was about to take action, the Kushans and Persians all got the news.

However, this was Jia Xu's purpose. The aristocratic family itself was not a good thing. After being released for so long, it was inevitable that they would have some small thoughts.

At times like this, we should give them a warning and catch a group of typical examples, so that they can serve as a warning to others.

To put it bluntly, even if the noble families defected, it would not be a big deal for Xinghan. They just hoped that these noble families could take over governance after they defeated the empire, thereby reducing the difficulty of subsequent public security.

Destruction is always easier than construction. Xinghan actually really wants to make use of the Kushans and Persians.

Factional struggles will always exist.

At least in Jia Xu's view, these Persian Sassanid guys are at least half-brothers and belong to the same world.

But those people in the Song world are cousins ​​from the same clan.

Although the cultural heritage has been passed down from generation to generation, the literati and scholars of the Song Dynasty also looked down on it.

After educating the Persian Kushans, we will all be one family in the future and belong to the same faction in the world.

However, because Xinghan is now in a period of expansion, these problems have not been exposed and have been digested internally. After all, the biggest problem at present is expansion, not the struggle for power and profit.

"Xinghan actually plans to attack us?"

Ardashir's face was full of disbelief, but after calming down, he figured it out.

How can I allow others to snore on the side of the couch?

Just as the Sassanid Empire did not want Mesopotamia to be occupied by Rome, the Roman Empire also did not want them to rule the Sassanid Empire.

"Contact the Kushans. They must send troops to support us!"

After calming down for a moment, Ardashir quickly began to give orders.

Fars Sassan looked at Ardashir with satisfaction. In fact, Ardashir was now the one in power in Persian Sassanid. He was in the position of emperor, but most of the time he was just used to take the blame.

All the problems stemmed from him as a sinner, and when he died, he would take all his sins to the grave, while the Persian Sassanid Empire rose to glory in the hands of Ardashir.

However, when Fars Sassan thought of Zhuge Liang, a gloomy look appeared on his face. He would never forget what happened back then.

The young people of Xinghan displayed their unparalleled elegance and grace, making everyone who saw them feel deeply worried. Maybe they could hold on for this generation, but what about the next generation and the next generation?

Zhuge Liang was too young, so young that they wanted to destroy him at all costs.

But unfortunately, there is always at least one peerless master by Zhuge Liang's side, either Zhao Yun or Dian Wei, and sometimes even Lu Bu would lead the team.

It is a luxury for their assassins' league to get close to Zhuge Liang.

"Grandfather, this matter is of great importance. Please come forward and formally inform the Kushan Empire that they have internal problems. We must not let those hidden rats cut off the communication channels!"

Those who are involved are often confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see things clearly. Ardashir actually discovered some clues about the aristocratic families among the Kushans.

However, the aristocratic families have always been dedicated to working for the empire and have never done anything to harm the empire, so much so that Ardashir was not quite sure whether there were any problems within the Kushan Empire.

However, in order to prevent any problems from happening, Ardashir still took the most formal approach, so as to avoid communication problems to the greatest extent.

They had experienced Xinghan's strength before, and it was also demonstrated in the battle with Monroe.

They must join forces with the Kushans to have a chance to fight against the Xinghan.

However, Ardashir, as the person in charge, did not see the situation in his own family clearly.

He only knew that a few people among the Kushans might have problems, but he never thought that there were problems with some of his subordinates.

And there are quite a lot of them, some of whom were promoted by him personally.

While Ardashir was making a big move, the Persian Sassanids and the Kushans colluded with each other more quickly and finalized a course of action, directly cutting off the channels of communication between the two empires.

This method would definitely expose problems, but the order issued by Xinghan was to disrupt the two countries in the shortest possible time, and the deadline was one month. Although they were not sure what this one month represented, it was obvious that this time was very important.

So Yang Xiu directly found a group of people and intercepted and killed the Persian Sassanid envoys on the way.

No one in the Persian Sassanid army had any doubts at first, but as soon as they entered the Kushan territory, they took decisive action.

The special super-strong single-shot crossbow, which required a master of internal energy to leave the body and put all his effort into loading the crossbow arrow, directly pierced through the body of the chief guard of the diplomatic mission.

The defenseless captain of the Kushan envoys' guard was hit immediately. Under the nearly zero-range shooting of such a powerful single crossbow, a hole as big as a bowl was blown out from his back to his chest, and his heart disappeared directly under this blow.

However, even though his heart was shot through, the captain of the diplomatic mission's guard did not die immediately. He looked at the Kushan guards who suddenly launched an attack in disbelief.

"Destroy them!"

Without any explanation, Yang Hui, a family general of Yang Xiu who served in the Kushan guard, sneered and rushed forward with his sword.

Yang Hui was actually a Kushan, a Dalit, the lowest class in the caste system. Because he was inherently rebellious against the Kushan caste system, he was noticed by the Yang family, who helped him change his identity and trained him carefully, enabling him to achieve the ability to leave his body without relying on the visualization of gods and Buddhas, and he became one of the Yang family's generals.

After leaving the country, the Yang family occupied Kushan and often adopted some low-caste people of humble origins to train as family generals.

After being driven out of the country and becoming military nobles, the Yang family knew very well that the reputation of several generations of nobles was meaningless, and only strength was the only thing.

Therefore, the Yang family trained their own officers and their own legions. In terms of inheritance, the Yang family was not weak at all. Even though there were no military gods among their ancestors, there were a lot of classics about military gods in their family.

Even Yang Xiu's first step in hooking up with Arvind was paved with these classics.

Therefore, the Yang family has its own armed forces. Although there are only two legions, they are all extraordinary.

The chief of the envoys' guards suffered a fatal blow, but he managed to hang on to his life by relying on secret techniques. For the internal Qi leaving the body, a destroyed heart is still an injury that can be considered fatal.

Although he can still survive and even have a chance to recover, how could Yang Hui give him time to recover?

Looking at Yang Hui with a cruel smile, the captain of the guards tried his best to shoot at him with a gun. The powerful force seemed to be able to cut Yang Hui in half.

However, even if he wanted to, he was powerless with his seriously injured body. After being blocked by Yang Hui, he turned around and chopped down on the head with a knife.

Swords and spears clashed, and the captain of the envoys' guard, whose heart was damaged, was exhausted and could only watch as the steel knife in Yang Hui's hand chopped down on him. He was beheaded by the knife and lay dead on the ground.

The single-shot crossbows that Yang Hui brought this time were almost fired by everyone, and even the internal energy could not be prevented from leaving the body, let alone the guards of other envoys.

As Yang Hui took the lead, the Yang family's soldiers immediately took out powerful crossbows and shot at the Kushan envoys. One round of crossbow shooting directly killed one third of the guard group.

"kill!"

After killing the captain of the guard, Yang Hui roared, joined up with his family soldiers, and then began to kill the Kushan envoys.

The Yang family soldiers roared and rushed into the delegation like tigers, defeating the delegation in just one encounter.

Having lost the commander-in-chief of the guards, the guard regiment, which was not as elite as the Yang family's soldiers, completely collapsed in a few breaths.

Before the envoy of the diplomatic corps could figure out what was happening, Yang Hui's knife pierced his chest.

"Why……"

The envoy uttered three words unwillingly from his throat and stared at Yang Hui, not understanding why Yang Hui, who had been chatting with them happily just now, would suddenly attack them.

"You'll know after you die!" Yang Hui was not moved at all. He drew out his knife and split the envoy into two pieces.

The Kushan envoys were wiped out extremely quickly, without any accidents.

"Leave no one alive, cut off everyone's heads, gather the bodies together and burn them!" Yang Hui wiped the blood off his face and gave orders loudly.

Only after all the corpses were beheaded, piled together, and burned to ashes did Yang Hui lead his men away.

With the Kushans completely unaware of the situation, they missed the opportunity to reach a cooperation agreement with the Persian Sassanids and mobilize their troops at the first opportunity.

Especially when the aristocratic families within the Kushan and Persian Empires began to work together to cause trouble.

The territories of the two empires were suddenly in turmoil, with bandits rampant, and there was a feeling that a strange road was approaching.

In particular, the rapid expansion of the evil cult in the southern part of Kushan made Kushan a mess.

Other families may not be good at this, but they are very familiar with rebellion and disrupting the domestic environment.

Especially Yang Biao and his gang, the Yellow Turbans’ growth was inseparable from their indulgence.

Now they are back to their old ways and are even more skilled than last time. This time they are not even worried about overdoing it and getting backstabbed.

Naturally, the situation was chaotic and it was as if the two empires were about to be destroyed. All kinds of rumors were flying around and the people of the empires were in a panic and terrified.
