The fifth year of Jian'an, on the eve of the Battle of Guandu.
The transmigrator Su Zhe had devoted three years to planning for Yuan Shao, only to be beaten thirty times with a rod and thrown into the Zhang River after advising him to launch a surprise attack on Xuchang. Yuan Shao accused him of “undermining morale and frightening my young son.”
Heartbroken, Su Zhe swam to the south bank of the Yellow River, where Cao Hong, the garrison commander, mistook him for a refugee and brought him back to camp.
To exact his revenge, Su Zhe became the man behind the scenes, guiding the “big fool” Cao Hong.
And then everything took a sudden turn.
Cao Hong: “Chancellor! Yan Liang was practically begging to be killed. I've burned him to ashes!”
Cao Hong: “Chancellor! Guan Yu was won over by my plan and bowed down to me!”
Cao Hong: “Chancellor! I know the Wuchao granary like the back of my hand. I'll go burn it!”
Cao Cao was stunned. “So my family's thousand-mile steed was Cao Zilian all along?!”
Yuan Shao spat blood. “Who ruined my grand plan? Why does this scheme sound so familiar? Su Zhe... could it be you?!”
Reading this kind of novel about the Three Kingdoms is so refreshing, it finally wiped out the hypocritical big-eared monsters. When I read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I saw that the big-eared thief was so hateful, especially the big-eared thief in the New Three Kingdoms.
Not bad. It's my type personally.
The subject matter is novel and majestic; Cao Zilian's character design is accurate and can be described as original and unique. Thanks to the author! Come on!
It looks great, it looks great, it looks great, I give it five stars.
