Well, in my opinion, I think he was all of the above. From what I remember from playing Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he started out as a good and respectable guy to many people. He had to be a very charismatic leader to be able to gain the following of many great generals like Xiaouh Dun, Xiaouh Yuan, and Sima Yi. But think that once he had the power, he just abused it like many, so called, tyrants.
As for the sources, other than the online encyclopedia (encyclopedia may have souces in it, try looking it up), I know there is a "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" book that had been translated into English. But it covers the whole story (both fiction and non-fiction), not just the story of Cao Cao.
I guess you are in the same dilemma that I am in right now. I am trying to find out about the current MP3's market share for my project, but no one on Y! Answers could help me. Sorry, for not being able to help you, just wanted to give you some support. Good luck. |
