Battle of Hefei (Wei Forces) - Defeat Lu Meng and Zhou Tai within 12 minutes of starting the battle.

1. When the stage begins, use the stairs in front of you to leap over the castle walls. Immediately head to the northwest base, and defeat Lu Fan, Chen Wu, and a base captain to open the southern gate. Head south to the next garrison, and take out Song Qian, a base captain, and possibly a mobile unit captain to open the next gate.

2. Continue marching south, and jump over the nearby cliff to arrive at a closed garrison. After some message lag, the gates will open. Enter it, and you_ll experience more...lag while the game loads up a cutscene of Gan Ning and Ling Tong_s ambush. Defeat both of them ASAP (I used a True Rage here).

3. Gan Ning and Ling Tong_s defeats will trigger Lu Meng_s decision to leave his fort and fight. However, due to the ridiculous amount of message lag, we_re going to skip to the next step. Head east to Sun Shao_s location, and defeat him as quickly as you can to free the engineers. This allows them to build a ladder and provides a path to Xiaoshi Bridge. By now, Lu Meng should_ve made his way over to you. End him quickly, then proceed up the ladder and advance towards the bridge to encounter a defense-buffed Taishi Ci. Perform an interim save here if you have 6 minutes to spare.

4. This is the important step if you want to save a minute or two. Normally, the game wants you to defeat Taishi Ci, travel south to destroy the bridge, and then capture the 3 bases surrounding Zhou Tai. Doing all of this will open the gates to Zhou Tai. However, to save a minute, we_re going to have our allies do one (and a half) of those steps for us. When Taishi Ci appears, engage in a a duel to the death. Actually, scratch that, when you have taken Taishi Ci down to 1/4 health, LEAVE and start capturing the 3 bases around Zhou Tai. This means you_ll have to backtrack and travel in a counter-clockwise fashion to defeat Sun Ben, Ma Zhong, and Zhu Zhi. This is where having a fast horse helps.

5. While you_re capturing the 3 bases, your allies will have killed Taishi Ci AND destroyed the bridge for you, thus saving you a ton of time. When the final base is captured (Zhu Zhi gone), you_ll need to sit through another...(you guessed it) series of messages, and then the gates to Zhou Tai will finally open. He receives a major defense buff on this map, so I hope you still have a minute to spare for this fight.
