Chapter 119: Dong Zhuo: You two hurry up and give this old man a big fat great-grandson!

~4 min read 669 words

"Grandfather, Bai'er doesn't understand much about fighting."

"But Gu Yi told Bai'er a story a few days ago."

"Once upon a time, there was a hunter."

"He had three sons and also an ancestral hunting bow."

"All three sons longed to inherit the hunting bow."

"So, they practiced hunting day and night, hoping to gain the hunter's favor."

"But when the hunter passed away, he gave the hunting bow to someone in the next village who didn't know how to hunt."

"Perhaps we would think that this hunter was a fool."

"He didn't give his family property to his sons, but gave it to an outsider who didn't know the trade."

"But only the hunter himself knew that this hunting bow was on the verge of breaking due to its age."

"If he gave this hunting bow to any of the three sons, the other two would harbor dissatisfaction toward the son who got the bow."

"Because in the hearts of the two sons who didn't get the bow, the bow was a very precious treasure."

"Even if the bow broke, they would think it was because the son who got it didn't cherish it, which led to the damage."

"Brothers fighting each other is not impossible."

"But giving the bow to an outsider who doesn't know how to hunt would avoid such a situation."

"The hunter's three sons, after practicing hunting day and night, already possessed skills no less than the hunter himself."

"Without this bow, they could still support themselves."

"Between brothers, this conflict was also avoided."

After Dong Bai finished speaking.

It led Dong Zhuo and Li Ru into deep thought.

This story tells us that without conflicts of interest, there are no disputes.

Since the "Western Liang Army F4" all want the status of garrison commander of Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass, then don't give it to any of them!

As long as none of the four of them become garrison commanders, the remaining three will not have opinions because of this.

To put it bluntly.

The Western Liang Army F4 came out to fight for the positions of garrison commanders of Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass this time, purely because of internal involution psychology.

They think that Hua Xiong made great contributions here and got promoted, and they cannot fall behind Hua Xiong.

So, they all stood up to fight for it.

This is like the "postgraduate entrance exam army" of later generations.

Many times, it is simply because the people around them are taking the exam.

They don't want to be compared, so they follow the crowd.

But if there is no one around taking the exam, and the general trend is not like this.

I am afraid that the postgraduate entrance exam army would decrease by at least 90 percent!

And now.

Reminded by his granddaughter Dong Bai, Dong Zhuo gradually figured out what to do.

But what makes him feel very entangled is.

If the Western Liang Army F4 is not allowed to serve as the garrison commanders of Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass.

Then... who should these two passes be handed over to for garrison?

Hua Xiong?

Lu Bu?

Xu Rong?

None of these three are suitable.

As a person of the Xiliang direct line, Hua Xiong's level of trust in Dong Zhuo's eyes is not below that of the Xiliang Army F4.

Continuing to let him be the garrison commander of Sishui Pass is afraid that it is a bit of a waste of talent.

Moreover, Hua Xiong is now the official with the highest rank among all the generals under Dong Zhuo!

A dignified General of the East, is it a joke? (Dog head funny)

As for Xu Rong and Lu Bu.

Although these two are not so trusted.

But these two are the leaders of the Bingzhou faction and the Luoyang Imperial Guard faction!

Is it appropriate to put these two in the position of garrison commander of the pass?

This is good. ===== CHAPTER 120 =====
