I personally think that Cao Cao is a complete villain, regardless of historical books and all kinds of comments made by later generations.
Because Cao Cao was wicked, he robbed the tomb to pay for the army, was selfish, suspicious, murderous, lustful, and liked wives. He was a complete villain.
1. Immorality, robbing a tomb to pay for the army
It is said that Cao Cao was the ancestor of robbing a tomb, and set up a special army, the so-called gold-touching captain, to dig graves and rob tombs and use the treasures buried with him as a military sound. Digging other people's graves can be said to be extremely immoral. Cao Cao was not only the first person to rob a tomb, but also sent troops to dig graves on a large scale to find treasure. It can be seen that Cao Cao was a wicked villain.
2. Selfish, suspicious and indiscriminate killing
In the story of catching and releasing Cao Cao, Cao Cao and Chen Gong took refuge in Lv Boshe's home, and Lv Boshe's family sharpened their knives to kill pigs. However, Cao Cao suspected that Lv Boshe's family had infidelity, so he killed all Lv Boshe's family and fled.
On the way to escape, when Lv Boshe came back to buy wine, Cao Cao knew that he had killed Lv Boshe's family by mistake. Surprisingly, Cao Cao killed Lv Boshe directly to avoid future troubles. Later, Chen Gong despised his behavior and parted ways. What Cao Cao advertised? Would you rather teach me to be negative to the whole world than to teach the whole world to be negative to me? The principle of life is completely the creed of selfish villains.
3. A lecherous likes a wife
It is said that Cao Cao, greedy for the beauty of Empress Wei Wenzhao, deliberately set out to attack Yecheng. When Cao Cao attacked Yecheng, he immediately sent someone to look for Empress Zhen. Cao Cao was a beautiful woman in both places.
When Cao Cao besieged Lyu3 bu4 in Xiapi, it is said that Guan Yu asked Cao Cao many times, hoping that Naduf could be his concubine after Xiapi was broken.
when Cao Cao saw Guan Yu's repeated requests, he suspected that Mrs. Du was superior, so he went to Mrs. Du for verification. Sure enough, he found that Mrs. Du was beautiful and delighted, so he refused Guan Yu's request. Finally, Cao Cao directly took Mrs. Du as his concubine. Cao Cao is a lecherous villain.
just as Luo Guanzhong commented on Cao Cao in the romance of the three kingdoms: The son can manage the world, and the treacherous man in troubled times is also. ? ; Mao Lun and Mao Zonggang's "The Three Kingdoms of Mao Ben" during the reign of Kangxi? Ye zhongge? The crowning point is:? The main culprit is not two people, but the legacy is a legacy. ? That is, it evaluates two aspects of Cao Cao's merits and demerits. In any case, Cao Cao was an outstanding politician, strategist, writer and calligrapher at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the founder of the Cao Wei regime in the Three Kingdoms. ?
