I wrote an essay on the sengoku period brother
I didn't get that kind of choice in class @_@

Its ok, I wrote about the Roman legions and got an easy A :lol: :2up:
Also, a PPT presentation on the battle of Kursk in 1943 was another easy A. :lol:

I did fine in history class :lol:

EDIT: Oh so it was in Japanese class, I didn't think of taking it back then @_@
if I ever took a Japanese class I would write everything about the Sengoku era :lol:

Yeah I'm a history major.

Though I kind of feel...inadequate in my knowledge of 3k and sengoku because I don't know the languages (yet).

The main sources I consulted were Carl Leban's dissertation on CC's early campaigns and various works/translations by Dr. Rafe de Crespigny (including his biography).

Examples of Cao Cao getting lucky:

-According to one source, he was captured at one point by Lü Bu's men but pointed to some guy on a horse and said, "That's Cao Cao over there!" While the story may be made up and it does demonstrate ingenuity, he also got pretty damn lucky they let him go at that point (if true).

-Gongsun Zan had actually experimented with tuntian before Cao Cao. Cao Cao copied Zan's program and expanded it rather than innovatively inventing it for the purpose of civil war (as is sometimes claimed).

-Everything related to Xu You and Guandu. Xu You gave him the keys to decisive victory by defecting from Yuan Shao and revealing the location of YS' supplies. also at the time cao cao's officers were not very loyal and some letters were being sent from his forces to ys' forces. Cao Cao magnanimously had the letters burned after victory, but imagine if someone had defected from cc's side first instead?

Just a few examples I raised. There's also his family status to consider in contrast to real upstarts like Liu Bei, Sun Jian or Lü Bu.

I was a history major too! :beard: :beard:

It was a while ago though ^_^

Rafe de Crespigny yeah is probably a preeminent English source on the 3K. But to be serious though yeah you should learn Chinese ^_^

Classical Chinese is pretty hard to read though if you're used to reading modern Chinese (like me :hehe: )

Yeah grammar+some words are different. For example to say A is B instead of saying A shi B like in Mandarin it's more like ABye (ye at end of sentence means is rather than also like in Mandarin).

I haven't really studied classical chinese much but my university MIGHT be offering an intro course next semester. I would be ECSTATIC if they did. Will take it no matter what.
