At the same time, the counterintuitive strategy that Sun Bin once used also began to be officially implemented.
From the beginning, Cao Cao knew that Wang Mang was ambitious and that he was not willing to be inferior to others.
Naturally, Cao Cao would not be happy to have someone like this, but he couldn't resist his beauty!
Think about how Boss Cao treats Guan Yu, and he didn't shoot arrows at Zhao Yun at Changbanpo. If he meets a general who likes him, sometimes Boss Cao will be more or less irrational!
If Boss Cao could be cruel to Guan Yu, Guan Yu would not have the chance to pass five levels and kill six generals. If he could order the entire army to fire arrows before Changbanpo, Zhao Yun, no matter how powerful he was, would not have the chance to kill this one with seven in and seven out.
And Liu Bei's good son Liu Chan would not be able to kill Zhao Yun and Ga Ga in Changban Slope, although Liu Chan was only responsible for Ga Ga at that time.
However, if Lao Cao really ordered the entire army to fire arrows at that time, it would have a huge impact on the direction of the Three Kingdoms era.
After all, Liu Bei only had one son, and Liu Feng was just a godson. Especially after having Liu Chan, Liu Feng's godson's status began to decline.
If Liu Chan really died in Changbanpo, the blow to the Liu Group would be much greater than the death of one of the Five Tigers, Zhao Yun.
Big Mac, Wang Feng, Liang Lin, Liang Fang, these people happened to be attractive to Boss Cao. For these people, he had to keep Wang Mang in the first place!
After that, Boss Cao wanted to divide these people, but Liang Lin and Liang Fang were okay. These two could be regarded as greedy, but Big Mac and Wang Feng were more loyal. type. Especially, what Wang Feng implanted was Wang Mang's biological brother.
If he didn't have the identity of a biological brother, Lao Cao might still have some chances with Wang Feng. But with the identity of this brother, it was difficult for Lao Cao to take action.
In order not to lose these two powerful generals, Boss Cao, even if he had murderous intentions towards Wang Mang, could only hold it back temporarily. All he could do was not give Wang Mang a chance to gain access to power. Although he placed Wang Mang in a high position But it is only a false position.
But all in all, Boss Cao has always been wary of Wang Mang.
And Wang Mang naturally has no loyalty to Boss Cao. He temporarily committed himself to Boss Cao's staff, obviously just for survival needs.
Moreover, Lao Cao was guarding against him day and night. It didn't give Wang Mang any chance to gain power, and it made Lao Wang hate Lao Cao so much. Even Lao Wang regretted choosing Lao Cao at that time. Coming to Lao Cao was just a waste of time. If this continues, he may really be able to live in this state of confusion for the rest of his life.
There is a conflict between these two people. If they use countermeasures at this time, it will be the biggest assist in itself.
Be sure not to think that since these two are heroes, they won't fall for these two schemes.
It is also a counter-intentional plan, just three words, but after Sun Bin uses it, can it be the same as after some second-rate counselors use it?
Not to mention, these monarchs in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were indeed strong enough when their abilities became stronger, but they were also really confusing when they performed mysterious operations!
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after they surrendered to Cao Cao, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were granted the title of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy of Zhennanhou because they were well versed in raising and training the navy. They were deeply tabooed by Zhou Yu.
So Zhou Yu used counterintuitive tactics to make Cao Cao kill the two navy commanders. Cai Hao and Zhang Yun were accidentally killed by Cao Cao, which was one of the reasons for Cao Cao's failure in the Battle of Chibi. As a result, he did not have a general who was good at commanding the navy. At the same time, It also reduced the loyalty of the Jingzhou Legion.
It’s not like Lao Cao has never made the same mistake before!
In short, because of this counter-intentional plan, although Cao Cao was not completely carried away, he did not actually behead Wang Mang directly. However, Boss Cao became obviously more and more wary of Wang Mang, and his attitude also changed.
Wang Mang has also been keenly aware of this change in Boss Cao.
Although Wang Mang can be regarded as the king of the country's subjugation in one sense, he can also be regarded as the founding king in another sense. Even if he is not as good as those founding emperors, his abilities in all aspects are still online.
At this moment, Wang Mang was not feeling well. If Cao Cao attacked him, he really didn't have the strength to resist.
Although there are a few loyal men, if there are no soldiers in hand, how can these few men fight against Cao Cao?
If this were not a fantasy world where force is paramount, no matter how strong these few people are, they would not be able to match their thousands of troops! Not to mention, Cao Cao's men are also as strong as clouds, and they are also not comparable to Wang Mang.
Lao Wang was prepared to strike first, or to be more precise, to run away first.
However, the school affairs office's monitoring of Wang Mang was indeed strict enough.
Moreover, Wang Mang was still too greedy after all. He just wanted to run away by himself, and wanted to drag the generals who came with him with him. If there are more people, it will be easier for others to find clues.
Not to mention, with so many people, could Cao Cao really not be able to win over even one of them secretly?
The final result was that as soon as Lao Wang made a move, he was completely surrounded by Cao Cao's Tiger Guards.
However, even so, Lao Cao still did not kill Lao Wang!
After all, this time is a big headwind, not a big tailwind. Lao Cao's ability is still online. He knows that they are employing people at this time. If Wang Mang is killed, Big Mac, Wang Feng and others will fight back then. . At that time, Lao Cao would have to be cruel to these people.
They are already in a headwind situation. If there are no more help from these fierce generals, then their situation will be even more difficult!
Although those people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty seemed to like to fight against the wind, Zhao Kuangyin was not Yuan Shao, nor was he the princes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He did not have the habit of going with the wind and waves.
However, now that the matter has come to this, Sun Bin's plan of alienation can be regarded as successful.
Although it seemed to have no effect, it caused Lao Cao and Lao Wang to completely break up, and even Lao Wang was directly imprisoned by Lao Cao. Then, even if Big Mac and others were forced to continue to fight for Cao Cao, but In fact, a rift has been opened between the two parties.
As for how to take advantage of this rift, it will be simpler than the previous problem! People like Big Mac are mostly fools, and it is much easier to plot against them than against other people!
Even for someone like Sun Bin, it is unlikely that such a strategy can directly overturn the situation of a battle. However, if it just opens a game-breaking point, it is more than enough.
