This book tells the story of Cao Cao, a young man known for his chivalry and righteousness. He matured through a series of events, including suppressing the Yellow Turban Rebellion, raising an army against Dong Zhuo, welcoming Emperor Xian of Han, and using the emperor to command disobedient subjects. He subsequently defeated warlords such as Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, and Lü Bu. Ultimately, he defeated Yuan Shao at the Battle of Guandu, unifying northern China. However, he was defeated by the Sun-Liu alliance at the Battle of Red Cliffs, and his southern campaign failed, leading to the tripartite division of the empire. Cao Cao valued talent above all else, suppressed powerful local clans, established military farms, and developed irrigation systems to restore social production. In literature, Cao Cao's poems were characterized by their grandeur and melancholy, reflecting the suffering of the people and initiating the Jian'an literary style. After the establishment of the Cao Wei dynasty, Cao Cao was posthumously honored as Emperor Taizu, with the posthumous title of Emperor Wu.
