Chapter 172: Dong Zhao (II)
Yan Shao's somewhat casual appearance made Tai Shici a little strange. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past, Yan Shao has been seeking talents in all aspects, which can be seen from the abundance of talents under Yan Shao's account. At least in this regard, Yan Shao is by no means inferior to any of today's princes, and even compared to Dong Zhuo, he is probably not inferior.
Only when it comes to strategists, there is still a blank slate, and there is hardly even a strategist to rely on. In the past, he had been anxious about this, and when the coalition forces were discussing Dong, he had discussed this issue with Tai Shici.
This is also the reason why Tai Shici immediately recommended Yan Shao after confirming that Dong Zhao was indeed talented.
Who wants Yan Shao, who is always eager to seek talent on weekdays, but now he shows such a posture, which really makes Tai Shici feel a little puzzling.
But he didn't understand Yan Shao's mentality, the so-called civil and military is the most important component of a monarch's account. However, there is also a huge difference in this, just like Wu, which can be divided into handsome and general, of course Shuai is the commander, and the general, some can be alone, and some can only charge into battle and be a brave general.
The more this kind of stuff, of course, the better. After all, leading troops to fight requires generals to command, and in the future, there will be more and more soldiers and horses, and if the generals under him will also increase, the combat effectiveness of the army can continue to increase.
However, the text is different in this aspect, some can handle political affairs, and some can help themselves with advice.
There are not a few civil officials under Yan Shao's account, especially those who deal with government affairs, and some of them Yan Shao can't even be named, what he really lacks is the kind of military advisor who has enough wisdom to give him advice on the battle array.
However, unlike military generals, if the martial arts are not as good as others, at least they can avoid fighting without fighting.
But the words of the counsellors...
If you are not as resourceful as others, won't you have to let your own monarch be calculated in vain?
What Yan Shao has always sought is a first-class strategist, the kind of person who is at least not inferior to any strategist. In this way, he could avoid his advisers being inferior to others and making himself miserable. It's just that there are few such strategists, even less than the generals of the same level, which also causes Yan Shao to never find the strategist he likes, and finally waited for one, but even the name is only vaguely heard...
This is how Yan Shao is not disappointed, but Yan Shao is Yan Shao after all, even if it is a mosquito leg, at least it can have some meat, right? In addition, he had always been accustomed to the appearance of Corporal Lixian, although he was a little careless at first, but when he walked into the side hall, his face had changed to an expression full of joy.
When he saw the person standing in the hall, he was even more surprised.
"This is Mr. Gongren?"

I have to say that this voice made Tai Shici and the others behind Yan Shao tremble. There is no way, who made Yan Shao change his face too quickly, at first he obviously didn't care, but after entering the side hall, his face changed instantly, and even Zhao Yun and the others next to him were dumbfounded at such a speed of face change, and they couldn't believe their eyes.
Yan Shao didn't care about them at all, walked directly to the side hall, and took Dong Zhao's hand and shook it up and down.
"Shao has heard about Mr.'s talent from Ziyi, and seeing it today is really a blessing for three lives!"
"How dare you, how dare you..."Dong Zhao was also a little dazed by Yan Shao's enthusiasm, although Tai Shici had already told him to others before, Yan Shao had always been thirsty for talent, but there was no reason to be so hungry.
"Where, to be honest, a certain pair of gentlemen is indeed thirsty for wealth, they can testify to this idea, although there are many people who can recruit good fighters under a certain account, including Han Sheng, Ziyi, Zilong and others are even more enemies, but there is no wise man like Mr..."
"But then again, how did the gentleman come to the North Sea..."
I have to say that this is indeed the question he is most curious about.
ββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββ
Dong Zhao listened to Yan Shao's words and smiled bitterly in his heart.
There was silence for a long time before he slowly explained.
He is a Dingtao person, which has been said before, but what he did not say is that he was already promoted to filial piety when he was young, and even served as the chief of the gall pottery and the county magistrate of Bairen County.
From a certain point of view, at the beginning, his official position was even a little higher than Liu Bei. But this is not strange, at least in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, this situation was very common, just like that Liu Dai, he had no ability, and was even hacked to death by the Yellow Turban Thief, but isn't he still the lord of a state?
It can only be said that sometimes, ability has nothing to do with status.
However, those who can be raised as filial piety in these years are usually people with backgrounds and abilities. In the Han Dynasty, filial piety and honesty were set as the annual example, that is, each county recommended talents according to the prescribed number every year and sent them to the imperial court, which became the clear stream of the Han Dynasty's selection of officials and the right way to appoint and promote. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, as for the Eastern Han Dynasty, from local officials to famous princes and juqing in the imperial court, many of them were born in filial piety and honesty, which had a great influence on the politics of the Han Dynasty. By promoting filial piety and honesty, it has created public opinion and fashion in the society of being a filial son at home and being an honest official, and has played a role in social education to transform the yuan and change customs.
In history, such as Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao, they were all cited as filial piety.
Later, Dong Zhao was appointed by Yuan Shao to join the army, and since then he has followed Yuan Shao's side. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Yuan Shao's performance in the coalition army was so poor. Staying in Luoyang, not to mention the performance in other aspects, the originally mighty coalition army also fell apart for one reason or another. However, on the whole, Yuan Shao does have to bear a considerable responsibility.
That's right, the World Alliance does have its own ghosts, but there are not a few of them who are loyal to the country. If Yuan Shao can unite these people together, then there may not really be even a chance of winning. It's a pity that Yuan Shao didn't do this, on the contrary, because of his own selfishness, he made the coalition army a plate of scattered sand, and after conquering Luoyang, he was even more satisfied, and finally made the coalition completely disbanded.
Of course, if this is the case, Dong Zhao will not leave Yuan Shao, at least not at this time.
At this time, he met Yan Shao, maybe Yan Shao didn't recognize him, but he had already seen Yan Shao. He also has a deep impression of Yan Shao.
After the coalition army fell apart and Yuan Shao retreated to Jizhou, Dong Zhao thought about it for a long time before finally deciding to leave Yuan Shao. The reason he gave Yuan Shao was that there was a sudden emergency at home, and he had to leave Yuan Shao for a while, and Yuan Shao didn't care much about it at that time, let alone suspect anything, and after Dong Zhao left Yuan Shao, he immediately set off for Beihai.
Originally, according to his estimate, Yan Shao should return to Beihai at this timeββββββ Jingzhou is indeed a bit far, but don't forget that Yan Shao is all cavalry, and since Sun Jian has returned to Jiangdong, Yan Shao has no reason to continue to stay in Jingzhou.
Considering the speed of the cavalry, it would not take much time to rush back from Jingzhou, at least definitely faster than him.
Who would have thought that when he arrived in Beihai, he also visited the county guard's mansion, but he didn't see anyone.
This made him a little stunned, he never thought that he ran over from Hebei, but he didn't even see Yan Shao's face. Fortunately, Dong Zhao is also a famous person at this time, especially a filial piety and honesty can be regarded as a good person at this time, plus he is here to defect to Yan Shao. The people in the county guard mansion were also more polite to him, and arranged a place for him to live, so that he could stay for the time being, and wait for Yan Shao to come back.
Anyway, the county guard is very big, let alone a Dong Zhao, even if there are dozens more, it doesn't matter, and people at this time like to raise doormen, such as the person who killed Sun Ce, who was assassinated by his doormen.
Beihai may not be big, but it is still possible to eat with one more mouth.
At this time, Dong Zhao didn't have much to do, and he was not familiar with Beihai, so he had to live for the time being.
I thought it was just a little bit of waiting, but I didn't expect to wait so long...
During this period, he also unexpectedly ran into Diao Chan and others who also lived in the county guard's mansion. The defense of men and women in this era was not as strict as that of later generations, as long as Cao Cao even allowed his wife to remarry, it can be imagined.
As for marrying a widow like Liu Bei, it is not unusual, because there have been similar examples in later generations. For example, the Shunzhi Emperor of the Manchu Dynasty married a widow, and the Wan Guifei of the Ming Dynasty, she is not a widow, but she can be the emperor's mother at her age...
ββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββ
Although Diao Chan and the others didn't go out much, they knew Dong Zhao's origin, and knew that he had come to join Yan Shao, since they met by chance, they didn't deliberately avoid it, but talked to each other for a while.
That is, in the process of talking, Diao Chan and others discovered Dong Zhao's talent.
Zhang Ning may still be young, but neither Diao Chan nor Lu Yan'er are ordinary women, so they can naturally judge the talent of this young man who recommended himself, especially when many things happened later were as Dong Zhao judged, which also made Diao Chan's attitude towards Dong Zhao more respectful.
After Tai Shi Ci defeated Cai Qi, he immediately introduced Dong Zhao to Tai Shi Ci.
And after some conversation, Tai Shici also confirmed that this scribe, who was older than himself and the others, was the wise and resourceful person that Yan Shao often talked about.
Tai Shi Ci still respects capable people very much, and before Yan Shao returned, he often talked with Dong Zhao all night. In fact, Dong Zhao also saw Tai Shici when he was in the coalition army, but at that time his impression of Tai Shici was limited to a very heroic and brave general, but he didn't expect Tai Shici's knowledge to be quite extraordinary, and he became more and more satisfied with Yan Shao.
It's not that he doesn't look down on Yuan Shao, it's really that the shortcomings in Yuan Shao's personality are too powerful, indecisive, extremely arrogant, especially intolerant of someone who disobeys him...
There are also civil and military forces under Yuan Shao's account, Feng Ji and Xu You are indeed wise men, but what about the generals under his account? Yan Liangwen is ugly? These two people may really be the three armies of the brave champions, but aren't the three armies of the brave champions translated as the courage of the horseman? Although these two skins are really quite powerful...
On the other hand, Tai Shici, not to mention anything else, after a bit of knowledge, it is definitely not comparable to Yan Liangwen and ugliness, and the fierce generals under his command are still like this, so it is not surprising that Dong Zhao has expectations for Yan Shao...
After listening to Dong Zhao's narration, Yan Shao nodded.
He didn't expect Dong Zhao to actually jump ship from Yuan Shao's side, but he didn't care much about this, he was more concerned about whether the person in front of him had enough ability.
"In any case, since Gongren has come, please stay and assist Shao, and never leave..."
They are familiar with each other, and between the words, Yan Shao seems to be more eager...
Uh-huh, I'm sorry, I'll make up for it right away!
