Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao’s Sixth Brother, an Eight-Year-Old Strategist

Cao Yi was reborn in the late Han Dynasty as Cao Cao's fifth younger brother.

Some things he knew from later generations were dismissed as nonsense.

To stay alive and keep the Cao family from seeing through him, he decided to play the fool.

But five years later, Cao Cao answered Yuan Shao's call to arms and joined the coalition against Dong Zhuo.

Cao Yi was forced by Cao Song to go to Chenliu, where he accidentally gave himself away.

As a result, his eldest brother pressured him into becoming a strategist for the Cao army.

For the sake of the Cao family's future, and so he could live better himself, Cao Yi began advising his eldest brother, recruiting talent for him, and helping him conquer the realm.

During the Battle of Xuzhou, the Imperial Uncle lamented: If I could make Cao Yi my fourth younger brother, he could surely restore the Han dynasty.

During the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao lamented: They're both younger brothers, so why does Cao Cao's brother help the other side with their plans, while my brother only gives me trouble?
