Objective: Take Changan, Luoyang, and Chengdu (you must have six other cities as well). Capture and kill Cao Rui. You will lose if Zhuge Liang dies or if Chengdu is lost. This should take five months.
On the first turn, go to HR/Job/Rank and give highest ranks to Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, Chen Dao, and Guan Xing.
Changan is your first target. Draft Hillmen in Hanzhong, Zitong and Wudu. Move Zhao Yun (with all the draftees), along with Zhang Bao (with some of the draftees) to Hanzhong. Next month, have a massive attack using all soldiers in Hanzhong under Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, and Guan Xing. Maximize soldier allocation and attack. (Leave unit with least soldiers to defend supply camp.)
At Changan you will be counterattacked by Zhong Yao (160 soldiers) and Chen Qun (200 soldiers). Quickly draw Guan Xing to divert Zhong Yao from the supply camp, then just have the three remaining attackers all attack Cao Zhen. After that, attack the city, break down the nearest gate (no need to leave anyone at supply tent) and just go after Zhang He with Charges. Recruit/Imprison all POWs.
Do not worry about the Nanman south of Jianning and Chengdu - you have already defeated their King, Meng Huo. Pull most of the troops from Jianning, along with Meng Huo, to Chengdu. Move the troops again to Zitong, and finally to Hanzhong, further supplementing the attacks on Changan/Luoyang.
The reinforcement of Changan depleted Luoyang, so attack with Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, Guan Xing and any recruited warriors. Give everyone their maximum amount of soldiers, and attack. At Luoyang, let the enemy escape through the gates (weakest unit on supply tent), then break down the nearest gate and Charge Cao Rui to death.
