Chapter 173 Shocked Cao Cao
In the audience, only Chen Gong, who had not been following Cao Cao for a long time, didn't know much about Lu Feng.
However, this does not prevent Chen Gong from hearing about Lu Feng’s deeds. When Chen Gong was still serving as the county magistrate in Zhongmu County, he had heard about Lu Feng’s deeds.
The greatest hero in quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion was valued by His Majesty the Emperor, and he marries Princess Wannian to Lu Feng. He is also a hero who swept the grassland and chases the crown princess. Lu Feng, the general of Zhenbei who guards the frontier for the Han Dynasty. All kinds of titles are not something that ordinary people can do. Even ordinary people can only do one of them at most, it is a miracle. People like Lu Feng who put the glorious title in one, have never appeared in the past four hundred years of the Han Dynasty. They can almost be called unprecedented. As for whether there are any futurers, they have to wait for others to practice.
Chen Gong was very curious about Lu Feng. He was proud of his talent and knowledgeableness. He had thought about going to Bingzhou to see if Lu Feng's idea was really a famous leader worthy of assistance. However, when Chen Gong heard that Lu Feng had five great strategists, he gave up the idea of going to Bingzhou to find out.
The reason is nothing else. Literature naturally has the arrogance of literati. Moreover, Chen Gong felt that he was no worse than the five great strategists under Lu Feng. If he arrived in Bingzhou now, not to mention whether he had any chance to show his talents, he would have to stay under the five great strategists who were doing, which made Chen Gong feel that he was very cheap. Therefore, Chen Gong stayed in Zhongmu County and appeared with the famous master. As expected, the emperor paid off and let Chen Gong meet the wise master in his mind.
Chen Gong was already very talented, so he could naturally see that the world was about to become a chaotic world. In the chaotic world, it was a time for heroes to rise up. Therefore, Chen Gong also wanted to find a wise master to assist him and show his talents. When Chen Gong "accidentally met Cao Cao who escaped from Chang'an when assassinating Dong Zhuo in Zhongmu County, he lost to Cao Cao when he was in Chang'an. After a deep chat with Cao Cao, Chen Gong felt that the wise master who had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared. This person was Cao Cao, so Chen Gong followed Cao Cao back to Chenliu. Because of this, Chen Gong became Cao Cao's chief adviser.
Chen Gong also heard Cao Cao mention many things about Lu Feng, but Cao Cao mostly talked about how magical and all kinds of things in Bianzhou were very unreasonable in his opinion. Driven by this curiosity, Chen Gong really wanted to know what Lu Feng had sent to support his lord.
Zhang Shiping brought Cao Cao and his group to the backyard of Xiaoyaoju. Xiaoyaoju is not just an ordinary inn. In the backyard of each Xiaoyaoju, there is a large yard, which is basically for the shopkeepers and friends to live in. This yard is also prepared to receive things sent by Bingzhou. After all, the things sent by Bingzhou are basically filled with Sumeru rings and brought over, so naturally they cannot be displayed in front of too many people. Therefore, with this yard, it is much more convenient.
Cao Cao and his group came to the backyard and saw boxes of large boxes piled up in the backyard. Zhang Shiping smiled at Cao Cao and others, came to one of the big boxes, and said "Open" to the person who was waiting for the side.
The box opened with a whistle and now in front of Cao Cao and others were countless big swords with cold light. When Cao Cao and others saw the blade, they exuded a cold chill, and they knew that this was definitely a treasure sword.
When Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren took out a ring-headed knife from the box and watched it, they found that the styles of all the knives in the box were exactly the same. If a whole box of ring-headed knife was taken out and sold outside, one might take a hundred gold to buy.
Looking at this box of treasure swords, Xiahou Dun and other generals had their eyes shining, as if they saw a naked beauty in front of them, and they wanted to go forward and love her. As long as they were generals, no one would like to dislike divine weapons, armor, and divine horses? Xiahou Dun and others were naturally no exception.
Zhang Shiping seemed to think that this was not enough to scare Cao Cao and others. He came to another box and asked someone to open the box.
After the box was opened, Cao Cao and others took a breath of cold air. In the opened box, there were a complete set of full-body armor. Looking at Zhang Shiping, there were ring-headed swords and armors in the boxes in this yard. Needless to say, each of them emitted a cold air. You can tell that it was a treasure sword, and the whole-body armor was different. Only those who could be equipped with full-body armor were able to be the Yulin Army, which was controlled by Zhang Rang and others at the time. The main reason why you can wear this armor that covers the whole body is not that there are too few people who can build a armor, but because the amount of iron consumed by each armor is more than that of ordinary armor. The main reason is that it takes time to build, and the weight of the armor is heavier than that of ordinary armor. The main reason is that each armor is worth more than a thousand gold. If you are not a person with great wealth, you will never choose this armor to equip your soldiers.
But looking at the situation in front of him, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel slightly moved. There were at least fifty pairs of full-body armor in the box in front of him, and behind this box, there were at least more than one hundred large boxes. If there were all such full-body armor, the total value would be at least more than one million gold.
Million gold, this is definitely an unimaginable number for Cao Cao, who was just about to start recruiting soldiers. Moreover, these weapons and armor were all produced in Bingzhou, and the quality was absolutely guaranteed. Looking at the previous scene, Cao Cao was so shocked that he was almost speechless.
But Zhang Shiping seemed to feel that it was not enough. He came to the front of the box on the other side and asked someone to open the box. He saw a long spear made of steel lying in the box. Cao Cao and others, who were already shocked and unable to speak, were now completely speechless.
At this time, ironmaking technology is not as good as later generations. If you want to make iron into steel, it is definitely a big project, and the output you have trained can be said to be very small. But the spear lying in that box is made of stainless steel all over. You must know that even the spear that Xiahou Dun is using now is only made of a small amount of stainless steel on the tip of the gun. But now compared with the steel spear lying in the box, Xiahou Dun's and the baby spear are simply incomparable to garbage.
Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren and other military generals had their eyes red. If Cao Cao had not been present, they would have likely rushed forward and robbed him directly regardless of the situation. Fortunately, they knew that these weapons and armor were given to Cao Cao by Lu Feng. Will Cao Cao not give them to him and his brothers after he accepted them? The answer is certain. Although Xiahou Dun and others really want to have these weapons and armor now, after all, there are outsiders present, so they still have to maintain their demeanor and not be embarrassed in front of outsiders.
You said that Xiahou Dun everyone's eyes were like a pervert who saw a beautiful woman. What kind of demeanor they needed to maintain? Their thoughts were betrayed by the expressions on their faces.
Cao Cao was embarrassed at the look of Xiahou Dun and others' loss of composure, and coughed lightly and said, "Shiping, I wonder how many weapons and armor Xiaoyao has given me?"
"Haha, the lord asked me to send me not many things to Cao this time. There are five thousand round-headed swords made of steel, 10,000 pairs of armor made of steel, 5,000 steel spears, and 5,000 excellent war horses." Zhang Shiping told Cao Cao with a smile on his face.
The more Cao Cao heard that his mouth became wider and wider. When he heard that there were still five thousand war horses in the end, Cao Cao almost screamed out loud. (To be continued. Please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!)
