Chapter 1437 - 1348—1385 Game of Power_2
Could it be that the plan wasn’t going forward?
No, that was impossible; numerous True Immortals had descended for that very World, and if their capabilities were only of this level, he himself would not have been so constrained.
Therefore, Zhu Houji speculated that there might have been some complications, or the True Immortals changed their minds about something.
"Indeed, some problems arose," Huang Jin explained. "The original plan left by the Taoist Monarch was flawless and could have been successfully executed. However, the critical issue was that once the Taoist Monarch entered seclusion, the plan could not be advanced."
"The plan couldn’t be advanced?" Zhu Houji first was stunned, then asked thoughtfully, "Is it because there was no one to oversee it, causing the various powerhouses to develop their own ideas?"
If initially he had been somewhat confused, the rationale explained by Huang Jin made everything understandable.
Sometimes, a plan need not be perfect; it must be executable, especially when one’s side has the advantage.
Often, the failure of some is not really due to a lack of wisdom, as spoken, but because they have too many thoughts and lack someone decisive enough to suppress all and settle on a plan, leading to such situations.
It’s like during the Battle of Guandu, where Yuan Shao faced Cao Cao. It wasn’t that Cao Cao’s strategists were smarter or more capable; after all, Yuan Shao’s strategists were individually just as competent.
However, the reason laid in Cao Cao’s ability to unify his strategists’ thoughts and execute the plans once decided. In contrast, Yuan Shao’s side lacked someone who could suppress dissent among his ranks.
