Ninth Card

Everyone has weaknesses. Merchants are greedy for money, nobles love power, poets value love, and mercenaries cherish fame. Confrontation is about seizing each other's weaknesses. Everyone knows this, the king knows it, and so does Cao Mang. When you seize the rights of others, you must seize the weaknesses of others. When guarding your own interests, you must also be prepared for your weaknesses to be attacked. A good player needs to be patient and remain unmoved until the opponent's weaknesses are exposed. Even if the weaknesses are exposed, there is no need to pursue them fiercely. But after seeing the overall situation clearly, aim at the weakest link in all chains, turn all attacks into a sharp blade, and cut through the complicated knots involved. That's what he does: observe, build momentum, and attack. Everyone here has weaknesses, except him.
