[edit] Yuan Shao's Failure Against Cao Cao
Yuan Shao contributed greatly to the Han Dynasty during its time of chaos. Being the esteemed head of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao hoped for the self-ruin to come to an end. Though he and Cao Cao may have been Warlord allies, eventually they would be sent into battle against each other to see who would rule over the Northern part of China. Yuan Shao had everything within his reach but he made too many careless mistakes during the Batttle Of GuanDu.
[edit] The Strategic Approach of the Yuan Forces
If Shao would have used the enitre land of GuanDu, he could've made it more difficult for Cao Cao to travel around. Seeing how Yuan had overwhelming men, he should've used his numbers to either wait in areas of GuanDu as ambush parties or traps for any Cao forces. Upon hearing of Wu Chao, Cao Cao charges for the weak point to turn the tide of the battle. The best place for the provisions to be would've been near Yuan Shao's main camp. With the provisions placed around the main camp, Yuan Shao should've tried to use Wu Chao as a false storage to lure Cao Cao or his assault units within the compound.

[edit] The Esteemed Yuan Shao
There is one impressive insight that I can say about Yuan Shao is that he had the courage and the ambition of a true Han servant before his terrible fall at Guan Du. Although he is an indecisive loaf and a visionary, he, from the novel, showed much courage and performs well in his battles regardless if he was not like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, or Sun Jian. As we all know, he was a moron for not heeding the advice of Tian Feng or Ju Shou but remember the interesting saying about the Yuans: Do not mourn for their death, but mourn for the ending rule after many years.
