Before Gong Sun Mu could finish his sentence.
Then, Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun heard Gong Sun Mu continue…
"Hehe, Liu Yu is guarding the border of the Great Han Dynasty, but he is trying to appease the foreign races.”
"Liu Yu should be glad that he has the powerful White Horse General Gongsun Zan under him!”
"If it wasn't for this person's fierce methods to intimidate the Wuhuan tribes, the foreign tribes might have already slaughtered their way to the Han territory, arrived at the city gates, and took Liu Yu's head!”
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Gongsun Zan's achievements and faults were ignored.
Gongsun Mu was impressed by his iron-blooded methods.
If he were Gongsun Zan, with a mediocre superior like Liu Yu who was a hindrance in the external war and advocated the Confucian school, he, Gongsun Mu, would definitely be more ruthless than Gongsun Zan.
"Where is Jingzhou Prefecture Overseer Liu Jingsheng?"
"Ranked among the Eight Heroes, praised by the world!"
Tong Yuan recommended again, mentioning Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao.
"Liu Biao is suspicious and likes to sit and talk. He is self-restrained and lacks the ambition of the four directions!”
"When the wind blows…"
"All the heroes in the world are scrambling to send troops to rebel against Dong. This person might only have his eyes on his small piece of land and live up to the name of being a relative of the Han clan!”
Gong Sun Mu's evaluation of Liu Biao was even worse than Liu Yu and Han Fu's. Tong Yuan's eyes twitched when he heard this.
Probably because people became more and more like children as they got older, Tong Yuan did not give up and said another name.
"Where's Yizhou Prefecture Overseer Liu Yan?"
"This person once held the position of Imperial Court's Zong Zheng and was a clan elder of the Han clan. His prestige was unparalleled in the Divine Prefecture!”
"If there's anyone in the world that Dong Zhuo fears, it's definitely this person!”
A disdainful look appeared on Gong Sun Mu's face as he sneered.
"If you don't die when you're old, you're a thief!"
"The reason why the world is in such a mess today is because of Liu Yan, that old thief, who proposed to establish the Prefecture Overseer system!”
"Master, you hope that he will be the Duke of Zhou, Huo Guang and the like…"
"But…"
"He might be holed up in Shu, fantasizing about being Emperor Xiaowu or Emperor Guangwu!”
Gong Sun Mu's answer immediately extinguished Tong Yuan's desire to continue recommending a wise master to his eldest disciple.
"Sigh!"
"Jing Lue, I recommended several wise lords, but you rejected them!”
"Just tell me!"
"Who exactly is the wise ruler that you have in mind? Zilong is here today, so we can help you study it!”
Tong Yuan lay flat.
No matter how much he refused to admit his age, in front of his eldest disciple, who had not only inherited his martial arts, but also surpassed his master, and whose political strategy was comparable to that of the current Sister Ding, he was really lacking.
"Cao Cao!"
Gong Sun Mu directly said a name.
Unlike the writers who graduated from the chapter breakdowns class in later web novels, he didn't leave them hanging at the crucial moment.
"Cao Cao?"
"Cao Cao?"
Two voices with different tones rang out. Tong Yuan and his junior brother, Zhao Yun, both looked at Gongsun Mu in surprise.
Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun had naturally heard of Cao Cao.
The descendants of officials!
The five-colored stick Zhang killed the uncle of the eunuch Jian Shuo.
During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he participated in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
As for more…
There was none!
Compared to Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Liu Yan, Liu Biao, Liu Yu, and the others that Tong Yuan had mentioned earlier, they were far inferior.
Not only was his family background bad!
His reputation was even more incomparable.
Zhao Yun didn't understand.
He didn't understand why his senior brother would mention an unknown person like Cao Cao.
However…
When Zhao Yun thought about how his Eldest Senior Brother's judgment of the world's general trend had all been verified, he suppressed the words he wanted to say.
Along with it.
He also used his hand to stop his master, Tong Yuan, who was about to ask.
Because Zhao Yun knew:
After that, even without them saying anything, his eldest senior brother would give them a satisfactory answer.
Gongsun Mu noticed the surprised expressions on his master Tong Yuan and his junior brother's faces. Naturally, he also noticed Zhao Yun's little gesture to stop Tong Yuan from speaking.
This made him look at Zhao Yun with admiration.
He was a meticulous person. No wonder he was valued by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang in history, and was appointed as the "Imperial Guard" to protect the left and right sides of the central army.
In the forums of later generations, Gong Sun Mu often saw some fans of the Three Kingdoms argue that Zhao Zilong rarely led troops to battle independently and argued that Zhao Yun was not worthy of being one of the top generals in the late Han Dynasty. Gong Sun Mu was disdainful of these people.
It wasn't that Zhao Yun couldn't lead the troops alone, but that he didn't need it.
He was in the emperor's heart.
He only needed to do his job well!
Moreover…
After spending more than ten years together in this life, Gong Sun Mu, who was familiar with his junior brother's personality, knew that Zhao Yun was not the kind of person who valued fame and military achievements.
Collecting his thoughts, Gongsun Mu looked at his master and Zhao Yun, who were waiting for his explanation, and said,"
"Master, Zilong, although Cao Cao's name is not as famous as Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Liu Yan, and the like, I wonder if you've heard of this saying before!”
"In a chaotic world, the first to stand out may not be the king!”
"It could also be…"
Gong Sun Mu paused and slowly spat out four words.
"Forerunner for the king!"
"Forerunner for the king?" Hearing Gong Sun Mu's words, Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun were shocked.
"That's right, it's the vanguard of the king!" Gong Sun Mu repeated.
"At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Zhuolu was filled with heroes!"
"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, who started the uprising, failed, which led to Xiang Yu and Liu Bang!”
"The Overlord's strength can shake a cauldron. So what if he killed hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers in the battle at Julu? In the end, the one who had the last laugh was still Emperor Gaozu, who was not favored by the world at that time!”
In order to strengthen the persuasiveness of his proposition of being the forerunner of the king, Gong Sun Mu continued,""The new Marquis Wang Mang usurped the throne, and the rebel army rose from all directions!”
"Green Forest Soldiers, Peace Forest Soldiers, Red Eyebrow Army, New City Soldiers, there are countless types of soldiers.”
"The generals of the Revolutionary Army, Liu Yan, Wang Kuang, Gengshi Emperor Liu Xuan, and Pinglin Chen Mu, who led them, were all stronger than Emperor Xiao Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, who was still in the Hidden Dragon era.”
"In the end, Liu Xiu was the one who set the rules for the Divine Prefecture. Isn't this enough to prove that they are all leading the way for the king?”
In the end.
Gong Sun Mu said something meaningful.
"The first to go out to sea is not necessarily a True Dragon!”
"Maybe!"
"It might be a flood dragon with impure dragon blood!”
Without a doubt.
In Gongsun Mu's eyes, Yuan Shao, Liu Yan, Liu Yu, and the like were the unlucky ones who were the forerunners of the king.
They were the pseudo-dragons that were destined to be unable to soar through the nine heavens.
If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to scare Master Tong Yuan and Junior Brother Zhao Yun…
Gongsun Mu even wanted to say the names of Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei.
Li Shimin became emperor at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang rebuilt China in the chaotic times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the rise of flower families at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China were examples of what it meant to be the forerunner of the king.
After a long time.
Tong Yuan, who had finally digested Gong Sun Mu's theory of "being the vanguard of the king", looked at his eldest disciple with a complicated expression and asked,""Jing Lue, when are we leaving?"
"Do you have anything I need to prepare for you?”
Tong Yuan didn't try to persuade Gongsun Mu to reconsider his decision to join Cao Cao.
After interacting with him for more than ten years, Tong Yuan understood that since his eldest disciple had revealed to him his choice for a wise ruler, he would not change his mind so easily.
"Today, now!"
Gong Sun Mu said a time.
" As for what you need to prepare for me, Master…"
As he spoke, Gongsun Mu's eyes moved slightly, and his gaze fell on Zhao Yun, who was sitting beside him.
He had to take his junior brother, Zhao Yun, with him.
As the saying goes!
To fight a tiger is to fight a brother, to fight a father and son.
An elder brother was like a father!
Senior Brother is also a brother, isn't it?
If he were to further convert it…
Cough cough!
There was nothing wrong with saying that Gongsun Mu and Zhao Zilong were like father and son!
