Is cao cao aoutcratic leader?

Answer:

He was actually not an autocratic leader.

There were many occasions where he allowed his officers to take decisions without requiring his consent and did not punish even if they failed (in the face of overwhelming opposition).

He also did not depose the emperor despite having more than enough reasons and opportunity to do it.

Thus it is safe to assume he was not autocratic.
