My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 489 487 Friends of Cao Pi

The Sima family in Hanoi has been a famous family for 400 years. Its ancestor was the King of Yin in the early Han Dynasty.

Sima Yi's father, Sima Fang, served successively as the Luoyang magistrate and the Jing Zhaoyin. Now he turned to the Cavalry Captain to cultivate his ambition and defend himself.

A few generations further up, his grandfather was Sima Jun, the prefect of Yingchuan.

Furthermore, his great-grandfather was Sima Liang, the governor of Yuzhang.

Sima Yi had seven brothers, all of whom were well-known. In addition, all of them had the character "Da" in their names, so these eight brothers were nicknamed "Bada".

After thinking about this, Cao Pi's eyes did not change.

His father was now the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, and he no longer had to worry about using human means.

This time, in the purge of various northern aristocratic families, it was rare that the entire Sima family was not implicated.

Although it is rare, it does not mean that they will be loyal to the Cao family. At most, they will just sit back and watch the world change.

"Sir, it's here."

The attendant's voice interrupted Cao Pi's thoughts.

Cao Pi smiled. If he wanted to do what Cao Cao told him well, he would have to find his own helper.

Xun Yu and others are very talented, but they are his father's ministers, so he can't always come to ask for advice. People must know how to use their discretion.

Literary office is not a very big official position.

All the members of the Sima family will serve under him one day.

In this case, let him meet this second child first.

On the other side, Cao Cao was at the school grounds. He was very satisfied when he saw a thousand elite soldiers put on the armor that Cao Pi brought back.

With iron armor, the defensive power of soldiers can be greatly improved. The safety during combat is greatly improved, and soldiers will become more brave.

In order to test the power of these thousand sets of armor, he even had a special battle.

As a result, the thousand soldiers who changed their armor actually defeated the three thousand soldiers he prepared.

These four thousand soldiers are all soldiers who have fought with him all the way. Logically speaking, there is not much difference in combat effectiveness.

However, the weapons in the hands of a thousand soldiers newly put on armor can easily cut off the weapons of other soldiers.

Seeing this scene with his own eyes reminded him of Xiahou Dun. How desperate must Xiahou Dun be at that time?

Within a year, he wants at least one-third of the soldiers to complete the change of uniforms.

In this way, he had the capital to go south.

He can wait.

"What do Wen Ruo think?" Then he looked at Xun Yu.

The shock was still in Xun Yu's eyes.

Having followed Cao Cao for so many years, he knew very well the combat effectiveness of Cao Cao's soldiers, but just because of a thousand sets of armor, the situation of the battle was reversed.

What shocked him even more was that the gap between the broken blades on the ground was so big?

Why would Jingzhou sell such a sharp weapon for takeout?

Listening to Cao Cao's question, he replied, "My lord, can you be sure that the armor equipped by the Jingzhou army is the same as these?"

Cao Cao's expression became serious, "How can Cao be sure? It's just that time waits for no one, Wen Ruo, we don't have much time."

Xun Yu looked stern, yes, not much more.

Either Cao Cao will go south, or Liu Bei will go north.

They really don't have much time left.

"As long as the gap between the soldiers and armor is not huge, our army does not need to change all its equipment, but only [-] to [-]% of the troops. With the number of soldiers alone, I can defeat Liu Bei." Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu again, "It's just that. First, money and food are consumed..."

Xun Yu closed his eyes and calculated quickly.

He is Cao Cao's chief steward and knows very well how much wealth Cao Cao has.

If he really did what Cao Cao said, Cao Cao's current wealth would be completely wiped out!

This is iron armor, not cloth armor. It is expensive!
But if you use their craftsmanship to replace the clothes, it will be more expensive!

Jingzhou is able to profit from this, which shows that Jingzhou's iron-making method is far ahead of them!

After all, this is where iron is made!
After a long time, Xun Yu opened his eyes and looked at Cao Cao, "Master Pi said there is a way to smelt iron?"

"Yes." Cao Cao nodded and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I don't know if it's because the other party already has a better one." Xun Yu said silently.

The status of craftsmen has always been low.

Does Cao Cao value craftsmen?Also pay attention to.

But the development in Jingzhou is better, and the reason is still that female monarch.

Jiujiu said, "Even the method that the other party has abandoned is better than the method we are waiting for at this time."

Cao Cao sighed, "Wen Ruo means the same, should we fight for it?"

"If we don't fight, what can we do?" Xun Yu looked directly at Cao Cao and smiled helplessly.

In the current situation, if we don't fight, we will die!

"I have asked Zihuan to take charge of this matter as Wu Guanzhonglang, but he ran to see Sima Yi early in the morning." Cao Cao had a smile in his eyes.

This kid is quite sensible and doesn't bother people like Xun Yu all the time.

Although Sima Yi had a reputation for talent, he wanted to see what his talents were, so it would be a good idea to let Cao Pi test him out first.

Xun Yu also laughed and said, "Looking at it from Yu's point of view, the Sima family has great talents, but this man is the most powerful."

"Oh? How can you see it?"

"Know the current affairs." Xun Yu replied.

Cao Cao then laughed loudly, "Yes, I may have wanted to keep the rules before, but now it seems that I am not that inflexible person. If this kind of person can be used well, he will be very convenient."

Xun Yu also nodded, "Well, I also want to see if this one of Sima Bada can bring some surprises."

In the courtyard where Sima Yi temporarily lives.

Cao Pi had already met Sima Yi and asked him questions directly.

Sima Yi was slightly stunned, but he also understood that his future path was no longer up to him, so he thought about it seriously, and then said,
"This method is not the latest iron-making method in Jingzhou."

Cao Pi nodded in agreement, "Pi thinks so too."

"But whether it is the latest iron-making method in Jingzhou or not, this method is better than our method in the north." Sima Yi sighed. He also wanted to see what kind of style it was.

Cao Pi nodded again, "Yes."

"So, this news may have been released deliberately by Jingzhou." Sima Yi stood up and paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, analyzing as he walked, "At first, it may have been to eliminate the spies ambushed by Jiangdong's Sun family in Jingzhou. But Sun Quan is unwilling to take risks."

Cao Pi suddenly realized, "That's it."

"So, he wants to pass this risk to the Prime Minister." Sima Yi said again, "But the Prime Minister cannot refuse."

Cao Pimo, it seems, is like this.

"The price of Chu'an's armor, Master just said, if the Prime Minister changes the entire army, the money and food will definitely be insufficient.

In this way, the only way to find out is the method of smelting iron.

What the young master is worried about is, is what Sun Quan said true?If this is true, how should we treat Sun? "

"Yes, please teach me Zhongda." Cao Pi bent down and handed over his hand.

Sima Yi was slightly moved. He had to say that Cao Pi's posture was much better than that of Cao Cao.

Of course, he also knew that this was due to the different statuses of Cao Cao and Cao Pi.

But at least, Cao Pi's gesture really made him feel more comfortable, and the resentment that Cao Cao had forcibly conquered him was relieved a lot at this time.

"Cooperate with him to find the method of smelting iron, regardless of sacrifice. This is the first priority." Sima Yi helped Cao Pi up and looked into the other person's eyes. "We can set it up again, but the opportunity to find the method of smelting iron is rare."

Cao Pi nodded, "Yes."

"As the young master said, Jingzhou's strength is unpredictable at this time. Therefore, we should give appropriate support to the Sun family. The Sun family has a two-generation feud with Jingzhou. It would be a pity not to take advantage of it." Sima Yi said again.

"How to use it?"

"Buy iron armor, let them make some money, and send troops at the right time to support them in retaking the land east of the Yangtze River. Of course, the old officials of the Sun family should also be given the rewards they deserve."

Cao Pi thought about it and realized that those old ministers in Jiangdong were all brave generals brought out by Sun Jian.

"Yi also heard that Sun Wentai left behind a daughter."
