Attack the Eastern Forces in Wu Route

Once the battle starts, the enemy will initiate an attack on the eastern front. Respond to their attack and defeat the enemy general Zhang Liao.

Attack the Western Forces in Shu Route

When aiding Liu Bei's forces, the mission starts on the west side instead. Defeat the enemy forces attacking the western front, led by their general Yue Jin.

Repel the Southern Ambush

After Zhang Liao's or Yue Jin's defeat, enemy ambush will appear from the southeast and southwest. Disengage from occupying the east—or west in Shu Route—and aid the ally troops on the southeast first. Continue repelling the ambush westward until you reach the southwest.

Defeat Zhang He and Yu Jin

Zhang He and Yu Jin will appear during the ambush, and will make their way towards the southern base. If left alone, they will annihilate ally generals and officers in their way, until they reach Liu Bei and Sun Quan. Respond to them first when repelling the ambush to avoid further losses.

Wait for Huang Gai and Light the Altar

Huang Gai will later reappear in the northern bank. After he emerges, defeat either Xiahou Dun or Xun You attempting to charge Zhuge Liang on the southwest to trigger the wind to change.

Use the Eyes of the Sacred Bird to see the if the wind is blowing southeast. When it does, fire the signal to light the altar and start the second phase of the battle.

Intercept Xu Shu and Xun Yu

After Cao Cao's forces start retreating, return to the east and intercept Xu Shu and Xun Yu. They will attempt to raise the gate to prevent the fire from spreading, bolstering enemy morale. Eliminate them first before heading north.

Defeat Jia Xu, Xu Zhu, and Zhenji

Upon arriving at the northern bank, fell Jia Xu, Xu Zhu, and Zhenji first before fighting Cao Cao. If left alone, the three will initiate a True Musou Attack that will drastically increase enemy morale and deplete ally forces.

Defeat Cao Cao

When ready, initiate combat with Cao Cao. If the fire spreads successfully and the enemy True Musou Attack was not initiated, Cao Cao will have less fortitude to fight with.

How to Beat Cao Cao

Defeat the Remaining Enemy Generals

Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao will reappear after Cao Cao's defeat, following their retreat from the southwest path and eastern front. Defeat them once more, along with the remaining enemy generals and officers in battle.

After their reappearance, Cao Cao will rise again for combat. It is recommended to defeat the other generals first to ensure an uninterrupted fight with Cao Cao.

Defeat Cao Cao Again

Defeat Cao Cao once more. The battle is won after successfully repelling Cao Cao and his forces.

Defeat the Eastern Forces

The battle starts with Cao Cao's forces aboard a ship. Enter the southern bank upon docking and eliminate the eastern forces.

Defeat Generals in the Southern Bank

After breaching through the enemy's eastern front, continue eliminating generals, officers, and conquering bases in the southern bank. Engage and win duels when possible, and prepare to aid in retreat after the volley of arrows stop.

How to Win Duels

Defeat Huang Gai on the Central Ship

When replaying the mission during post-game, head towards the central ship and wait for Huang Gai's arrival. He will appear once the ally forces stops the volley of arrows in the southern bank.

Defeating Huang Gai and preventing the fire will fulfill one of the conditions for Wei's true ending. The battle will continue with Cao Cao's forces occupying the southern bank and defeating Liu Bei.

Defeat Guan Yu and Retreat to the Northern Bank

After the cutscene of Huang Gai's defection, stay behind and head southwest. Defeat Guan Yu to prevent him from joining the main enemy forces up north, whose mission is to eliminate Cao Cao.

How to Beat Guan Yu

Defeat Liu Bei and Sun Quan

After defeating Guan Yu, rush towards the northern bank and look for Liu Bei and Sun Quan. The battlefield will be chaotic, and it is recommended to utilize tactics and War God Rage if the enemies are overwhelming the ally forces.

Defeat both generals for Cao Cao to succeed in escaping and end the mission in a victory.
