Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Why did Cao Cao choose Yuan Shao as the leader?

Cao Cao's balloon is a famous brand of loyalty and righteousness. Everyone is afraid that staying away from this signboard will be activated as anti-loyalty, so people who come to respond are scrambling to participate actively. Since the United front has been formed, it is of course necessary to have an ally to distinguish it from the mob. When we get together, someone should stand in this position to unify the pace, command all actions and make necessary decisions. Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo at that time, which was the only way out. How dare he volunteer to be the leader? Even if it is really intentional, everyone will not agree. Because the people present are not Cao Cao in terms of seniority, power and status. He nominated Yuan Shao, saying that he was a descendant of a famous Han Dynasty star and should be a leader. Yuan Shao is very happy, of course, and he really likes being a leader. But according to reason and convention, he must refuse again and again to show politeness. Everyone thought it must be his, so they reluctantly agreed. Publicly declared that "Shao, though incompetent, has been promoted to the leader, who will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his crimes", and then appointed Governor Yuan Shu to provide food and grass, and Changsha magistrate Sun Jian volunteered to be the pioneer and killed him at Sishuiguan.

Modern election methods have produced many drawbacks and jokes. Compared with the ancient recommendation method in China, it is actually more convenient and effective. There will be no factions caused by elections, and leaders can be produced harmoniously. Wouldn't it be better if everyone had face? Well matched, it should be another way of modern election, which is worth considering and using.

Yuan Shao IV was born in a noble family. The meaning of aristocratic family is a powerful family. Brothers add up, even worse. Cao Cao is a wise man, knowing that he is not heavy enough, he dare not think much. But I also understand the importance of accommodating others. Anyway, Yuan Shao must choose, why not try to be a nominee? So Cao Cao chose Yuan Shao without waiting for others to speak.

If Yuan Shao fails to live up to expectations, everyone will recommend others. Even suspected that Cao Cao was insincere, hoping to attract everyone's attention and come forward to choose him? Cao Cao certainly knows that Yuan Shao is the most suitable one to be present, but Yuan Shao is not an ideal leader. Therefore, after Yuan Shao was sworn in, he immediately took the opportunity of pretending to be crazy and advised Yuan Shao to "help the country, regardless of strength." Because Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are old colleagues, they know that Yuan Shao is conceited, has no real talent, and has not changed the habits of rich children. When blades wanted to get rid of eunuchs and could not get He Taihou's approval, he suggested blades call Dong Zhuo into the court, which was very inappropriate. Without suitable talents, elections and recommendations are equally invalid. No matter from what aspects, I have to recommend Yuan Shao, at least in Yuan Shao's heart, which can occupy a greater weight. It should be more beneficial to make suggestions in the future. Sure enough, everyone responded enthusiastically, and there may be no choice.

Mob, what will happen if the leader has another private person with insufficient strength? You can imagine. This time, the major leagues, with Yuan Shao as the leader, have lost their effectiveness. It's just that people from all walks of life have come together to make Dong Zhuo more rampant, that's all! It is precisely because of this that Dong Zhuo's tragic ending will be caused. Therefore, regardless of success or failure, it has made great contributions to breaking Dong Zhuo. Often failed several times, pushing the opponent to the highest peak. It's also a strategy to keep him aloof.

Cao Cao is an ambitious man, and their every move has a deep meaning. Their strength is that they don't miss any opportunity. They want to find the most favorable place for themselves and then take the most favorable action.
