Ancient China, 208 of our era. The cunning prime minister, and actually the ruler of the empire, Cao Cao convinces the indecisive emperor to start a war with two independent kingdoms under the pretext of unification of China. The millionth army easily breaks the few detachments of the Kingdom of Shu and locks the remnants of the troops in the citadel near the Red Rock, leaving them another choice how to turn to the ruler of the East Kingdom, sending the military adviser Liang Zhuga there. He manages to convince the ruler of the kingdom to send to the aid of the besieged the army led by Vice-ruler Zhou Yume. And now it is unclear whether gross power can overcome courage and cunning.
