Three Kingdoms: I Corrupted the Cao Camp’s Culture

Cao Cao was indeed stronger than Liu Bei, not only in terms of ability and power, but more importantly, in matters of principle. Cao Cao had no bottom line. What if his army had low morale? He'd let them slaughter, rape, plunder, burn, and rob like Japanese invaders. What if they ran out of food? He'd capture civilians and slaughter them like pigs and dogs. What if there were too many prisoners?

Cao Cao himself despised benevolence the most, so you really dare to defend him? You might as well defend Duke Xiang of Song and Zhao Kuangyin instead. 😏

He's a warlord now, how kind can he be? Even if he's a good boss, he'll only be good to his subordinates at best, and even the lowest-ranking soldiers won't get a share, let alone the common people.

Unsurprisingly, it's that same person who was born and waited for this eunuch to be cast.

There were six or eight large-scale massacres recorded, along with tomb raiding, killing women and children, and forced land reclamation. It can be said that only after the formal establishment of the Wei state and the beginning of organized governance did the lives of the people gradually improve.

The old problem with these books is that they themselves, not being the rulers, are unwilling to release the renowned ministers and generals they've recruited.

Was Cao Cao benevolent? His father was murdered, and instead of killing his enemy, he ordered the slaughter of an entire province's inhabitants to be buried with him.

Cao Cao did things that even he himself dared not call benevolent!

Seeing the introduction say that King Wei was benevolent and virtuous, you really dare to say and write that!

I don't know what these authors were thinking? Cao Cao ate people, yet so many people helped him.
