Jiange, Yinping route
[Echigoya P]
Hello Everyone!
In this showcase of the single map, we introduce Jiange.
Fans of the Three Kingdoms will of course recognize this location. Right, this is the land where Shu's Jiang Wei and Wei's Zhong Hui fought. It also became the final battleground for the Shu forces.
This is a land with natural defenses, a natural fortress. And it is not just Jiange. The paths leading up to it are guarded by the Baishui, Fushui, and Mianzhu gates, all formidable locations.
As long as this route is chosen, without conquering Jiange, there is no moving forward. It can be considered the final defensive line.
30 years after the death of Zhuge Liang. Wei finally gains control of Hanzhong. Sima Zhao orders Zhong Hui, Deng Ai, and Zhuge Xu to invade Shu. This constitutes a pinch for Shu.
Jiang Wei chooses to lead the Shu forces to Jiange to meet the Wei forces. There, he successfully seals the movement of Wei's elite officer, Zhong Hui.
However, there was one who chose a path that no one could have predicted...
In May of 263, Wei's invasion was formed to deal the final blow to the sputtering flame that was Shu. However, Zhong Huo had been blocked at Jiange.
At that time, in contrast to the straight forward approach of Zhong Hui, Deng Ai, known as one of the pillars of Wei, literally chose a different path. He chose the Yinping route.
……Well, I was introducing this path, but it doesn't really look like a path on the screen, does it? (smile)
It is said that Zhong Hui placed no importance on Deng Ai's decision to take this path. This goes to show how difficult a path that was at the time.
It's just off the screen, but the core of Yinping can be found to the bottom right of the screen. In the direction of the upper part of the screen, off in the distance can be seen Chengdu. Continuing on past the top of the screen would eventually lead to Mianzhu gate. How far is it? On the map, it should be around 60 hex. (smile)
And the entire route from Jiange to Mianzhu gate is designed as a mountain path (considered by the game to be high mountain).
This distance and difficulty is sufficient to explain why Zhong Hui looked down on Deng Ai's choice and also, to show how amazing were the men who walked that path.
For any of you planning on attacking Chengdu, will you consider this route?
It would certainly be something to watch.
Until next time!
