That's it.
What else is there to believe in Dong Zhuo?
As he said himself, he is not a fool, on the contrary, he is a little smart.
If Cao Ang didn't mention it, he might not be able to see it, but now that he has analyzed the various joints and vital points so thoroughly, he only needs to imagine the scene in his mind, and he will almost understand it in his heart.
Depose the emperor and establish a new king.
Isn’t this hateful?
Dong Zhuo was just arrogant and domineering, not because he didn't know what to do. He knew that doing so would make people in the world hate him, but he never took it seriously before.
After all, the more forces there are, the more complex the ingredients will be. It doesn't matter if everyone in the world hates him. As long as he can't connect them together, there's nothing he can do.
If there is really an anti-Dong Zhuo alliance, it will definitely not be able to unite together. No one is convinced by the other, and no one has the prestige to overwhelm everyone else.
But now that Yuan Shao is here, the situation is completely different.
I didn't take this guy at ease before, thinking he was just an ordinary heiress from a noble family, but now I think I'm thinking differently.
Everyone has their status, official position, and reputation, so they can naturally become connected people.
Thinking about it this way, the trouble is really quite big.
…
Seeing Dong Zhuo anxiously rubbing his hands on the spot, Cao Ang secretly laughed in his heart.
He said this deliberately because he knew that Dong Zhuo could not catch up with Yuan Shao and could not capture him.
Otherwise, if Yuan Shao is really captured because of his own guidance, how will the Kwantung Allied Forces be formed against Dong Zhuo in the future?
Seeing that Dong Zhuo was asking for help and asking him to save him, Cao Ang stopped worrying and slowly set up the next trap.
"Since we can't catch up with Yuan Shao, we can only think of another way, which is to stabilize Yuan Shao."
"Yuan Shao has now abandoned his official position and fled to an unknown destination. Since he cannot return to Runan, he must have been at a loss for a while, wandering without knowing where he is going."
"In this case, you can use the emperor's hand to issue an appointment, trap Yuan Shao in a certain place, and appoint him as the chief official there."
"In this way, it gives Yuan Shao a direction to choose from. At the same time, it also tells him that you and he have settled the past and will no longer pursue responsibility."
"With a two-pronged approach, how can Yuan Shao be unstable?"
As Cao Ang's narrative deepens.
Dong Zhuo's eyes became brighter and brighter.
He, who was in a panic just now, suddenly felt that he had found a glimmer of hope in his life, and his whole person became energetic.
"Okay! Hahaha! What a great idea!"
"Sure enough, Zixiu has a good plan and has always been very wise. Such a difficult problem was solved easily in front of you."
"Tsk, what a good idea!"
"As the saying goes, it is better to block than to block. Instead of overwhelmingly trying to capture Yuan Shao, who may not be able to catch him, it is better to take a step back and show him that I am broad-minded and will no longer pursue him."
"At the same time, I will appoint him an official and make a wish, and keep him in one place. I think he will most likely follow the direction I have laid out for him."
The more Dong Zhuo thought about it, he felt it was very feasible.
Isn’t that what people are like?
When you force him to move, he may wander around, and he may even turn around and bite you.
But if you gently point him in the direction, let him follow the road, and put food and drink at the end of the road, things will go much smoother.
Yuan Shao is probably a soft-spoken man, and he has said so himself. Can he still unite all parties to oppose me?
…
Just like that, after being excited for a while.
Dong Zhuo suddenly sat down.
Then he tugged on Cao Ang's sleeve.
"That's not right. What if Yuan Shao still wants to oppose me?"
"At that time, I also canceled my pursuit of him, and gave him an official position and territory. He got the benefits but refused to spare others. How should I counterattack?"
Dong Zhuo was quite thoughtful.
Facts have proved that this is what Yuan Shao did.
Not only Yuan Shao, but also officials from all walks of life did this when Dong Zhuo controlled the government.
I accept your appointment and accept the territory you give me, but if you want me to support you, get away as far as you can.
Not only will I not support you, I will use the official position you gave me to recruit soldiers, and then use these soldiers to attack you.
Of course there is a reason why Dong Zhuo himself went too far, but part of it is that such meager profits cannot win over people's hearts.
Faced with Dong Zhuo's multiple concerns.
A glimmer of light flashed in Cao Ang's eyes.
But the whole person became more and more cautious.
Finally, at the last moment, I set up traps and kept leading Dong Zhuo's thoughts, wasn't it just for this moment?
They've been lying in wait long enough, and it's time to reap the rewards.
Cao Ang showed a relaxed look.
He didn't seem to take this issue to heart and said nonchalantly: "Then send someone with some troops to keep an eye on him. As soon as Yuan Shao makes any movement, strike first. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
Having said this, Cao Ang coughed lightly.
"By the way, the person sent must be a general who knows how to command troops, and must also be somewhat resourceful."
"If you don't know how to command the troops, there is definitely nothing you can do. Don't fail to attack Yuan Shao when the time comes, and be eaten by others instead. Then your troops will be wasted."
"As for Zhimo, the function is to judge whether Yuan Shao is making any changes now. Don't let Yuan Shao touch Luoyang City. He is still staring there, thinking that there is no movement."
"I see that Dong Gong has many talented people under his command. I guess it won't be a big problem to choose someone like this."
Dong Zhuo: "..."
Thank you for lifting me up.
But I have a big problem!
I don't want to feel this way yet, but now that I think about it, I really can't find such a person.
There are many generals under him, but most of them are old men brought from Xiliang. They are good soldiers on the battlefield, but it is really a blessing to have them wise enough to judge the opportunity.
After coming to Luoyang, he did recruit some people, but like Lu Bu, to be honest, I didn't see how resourceful he was.
There is one person who stands out, Xu Rong.
But not long after this guy came over, how can you trust him to run out with his soldiers? Don't supervise and supervise him. In the end, he and Yuan Shao join forces, so don't you deserve to be taken advantage of?
Starting from the literati side, Li Ru is definitely smart enough. If he is allowed to lead troops in a battle, even if his level is not high, he should not lose miserably.
This is a more suitable candidate.
But the key is that he only has such a person who can be called a counselor, and there is no other alternative.
By sending Li Ru to the front line to keep an eye on Yuan Shao, he would have no think tank available, and the negative impact would be even more exaggerated.
After thinking about it, Dong Zhuo felt a little depressed.
It is also said that the soldiers are well-fed and the generals are like rain.
When things come to a close, I find that there is not a single one that I can use. It’s really embarrassing.
"well!"
Dong Zhuo sighed and was about to say something when he suddenly turned his head and saw Cao Ang beside him.
An idea flashed through his mind.
…
ps. Thanks to the monthly votes of the two bosses of "Star North and South" and "Time Traveler", the bosses are becoming more and more handsome and powerful!
