Conquest of Kujula Kadphises is the military conquest of Kushan Empire’s King Kujula Kadphises, in which he completely defeated the Four Yuezhi Kingdoms and Indo-Parthian Kingdom along with his commerical relations with Roman Empire.

These conquests by Kujula Kadphises probably took place between AD 45 and 60 and laid the basis for the Kushan Empire which was rapidly expanded by his descendants.[1]
