You need to send troops 4-5 times.
This guide contains several optional setups, so all combinations of versions cannot be listed with needed and lost troops.
Below are a few versions, with the following minimum number of generals.
Please note!
Even if you would prefer using elite soldiers over ordinary soldiers,
I'd still recommend that you do send 62S or an extra 107B for the block on camp 7.

This guide includes three blocks, which can be either method 1 or method 2.
If you opt to use any of the 1R blocks, do watch your main general and be prepared to recall him, if he gets intercepted.
Game flow, garrison settings and losses (minimum - average - maximum):
Garrison Position G1 (Camps 18-20, BLOCK)
Move your best general and two normal generals (for the block) to garrision position G1:- Position A: NORMAL general (needed for the optional block if you have a veteran general)
- Position B: NORMAL general (needed for the block)
- Position C: VETERAN general or BATTLE HARDENED general or ANY general
The following round block is recommended if you do have a veteran general.
Send general A first:
From A to Camp 19) 40 Lance Riders, 70 Nomads
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [53S 7C (-)] {120 - 240 seconds of fighting, 0.1% chance of 100 seconds}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [47E 3C (-)] {140 - 240 seconds of fighting, <0.1% chance of 120 seconds}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [50S 25B (-)] {120 - 240 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [46E 10B (-)] {140 - 240 seconds of fighting, 0.1% chance of 120 seconds}
Wait till general A has appeared outside his garrison before sending generals B and C.
In order to avoid being intercepted, general B must march out at least 5 seconds after general A.
If generals A and B march out at the same time, immediately recall all generals.
From B to Camp 18) 70 Nomads, 40 Riding Amazonian Guards
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [26S 76C (-)] {120 - 180 seconds of fighting, <0.1% chance of 100 seconds}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [25E 67C (-)] {120 - 200 seconds of fighting}
Send general C right after general B:
From C to Camp 20) 90 Riding Amazonian Guards, 10 Uproarious Bulls
BATTLE HARDENED general: [117R 83K (115R - 116R - 117R)] {60 seconds of fighting}
BATTLE HARDENED general: [116B 84K (115B - 115B - 116B)] {50-60 seconds of fighting}
MASTER of Martial Arts: [29R 1S 90B 100LB (28R 90B - 28R 90B - 29R 90B)] {40 (50) seconds of fighting}
MASTER of Martial Arts: [23R 90B 107XB (21R 90B - 22R 90B - 23R 90B)] {40 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [26R 90B 1S 133LB (25R 90B - 26R 90B - 26R 90B)] {60 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [116B 134LB (115B - 115B - 116B)] {60 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [23R 90B 1S 96LB 40XB (22R 90B - 22R 90B - 23R 90B)] {50 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [21R 90B 1S 138XB (20R 90B - 21R 90B - 21R 90B)] {50 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [111B 139XB (110B - 110B - 111B)] {50 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [108R 142K (107R - 107R - 108R)] {30 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [107B 143K (107B)] {30 seconds of fighting}
MAJOR general: [106R 164K (106R)] {30 seconds of fighting}
MAJOR general: [106B 164K (106B)] {30 seconds of fighting}
Including a slight delay before sending generals B and C, it takes 55-60 seconds for general C to reach camp 20 from the moment when general A starts his fight on camp 19. If the main fight on camp 20 lasts 60 seconds, then the block on camp 19 becomes rather tight. A block lasting 120 seconds would only just be enough, but for one of the block versions there is also a very small chance that it lasts only 100 seconds.
If you do not have a veteran general, attack camp 19 first:
From B to Camp 19) 40 Lance Riders, 70 Nomads
ANY general: [171R (38R - 44R - 50R)]
ANY general: [46R 110S (38R - 44R - 46R 1S)]
For the following 1R block send both generals right after each other:
From B to Camp 18) 70 Nomads, 40 Riding Amazonian Guards
NORMAL general: [1R (1R)] {20 seconds of fighting}
From C to Camp 20) 90 Riding Amazonian Guards, 10 Uproarious Bulls
ANY general: [130B 70LB (127B - 130B - 130B)]
ANY general: [44R 92B 64LB (40R 90B - 41R 90B - 44R 92B)]
ANY general: [43R 91B 1S 65LB (40R 90B - 40R 90B - 43R 91B)]
ANY general: [32R 90B 1S 77XB (30R 90B - 32R 90B - 32R 90B)]
ANY general: [122B 78XB (119B - 120B - 122B)]
VETERAN general: [123R 127S (122R - 122R - 123R 1S)]
VETERAN general: [26R 90B 1S 133LB (25R 90B - 26R 90B - 26R 90B)]
VETERAN general: [21R 90B 1S 138XB (20R 90B - 21R 90B - 21R 90B)]
If you do not want to try any blocks:
Camp 19) 40 Lance Riders, 70 Nomads
ANY general: [171R (38R - 44R - 50R)]
ANY general: [46R 110S (38R - 44R - 46R 1S)]
Camp 18) 70 Nomads, 40 Riding Amazonian Guards
ANY general: [191R (62R - 66R - 70R)]
ANY general: [68R 110S (62R - 66R - 68R 1S)]
ANY general: [28R 110S 40B (22R 40B - 26R 40B - 28R 1S 40B)]
Camp 20) 90 Riding Amazonian Guards, 10 Uproarious Bulls
ANY general: [130B 70LB (127B - 130B - 130B)]
ANY general: [44R 92B 64LB (40R 90B - 41R 90B - 44R 92B)]
ANY general: [43R 91B 1S 65LB (40R 90B - 40R 90B - 43R 91B)]
ANY general: [32R 90B 1S 77XB (30R 90B - 32R 90B - 32R 90B)]
ANY general: [122B 78XB (119B - 120B - 122B)]
VETERAN general: [123R 127S (122R - 122R - 123R 1S)]
VETERAN general: [26R 90B 1S 133LB (25R 90B - 26R 90B - 26R 90B)]
VETERAN general: [21R 90B 1S 138XB (20R 90B - 21R 90B - 21R 90B)]
Garrison Position G1 (Camp 10)
Camp 10) 70 Nomads, 20 Cataphracts
ANY general: [145R (42R - 46R - 50R)]
ANY general: [47R 90S (42R - 46R - 47R 1S)]
ANY general: [27R 90S 20B (22R 20B - 26R 20B - 27R 1S 20B)]
Garrison Position G2 (Camp 16)
Move your best general and two normal generals (for the blocks) to garrision position G2:- Position A: NORMAL general (needed for a round block)
- Position B: NORMAL general (needed for a block)
- Position C: VETERAN general or BATTLE HARDENED general or ANY general
From C to Camp 16) 60 Nomads, 40 Lance Riders, 60 Composite Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (35R - 46R - 62R)]
ANY general: [42R 158S (35R - 40R - 42R 1S)]
MASTER of Martial Arts: [42R 140S (35R - 40R - 42R 1S)]
Garrison Position G2 (Camps 7-8, BLOCK)
The following round block is recommended. Send both generals right after each other:
From B to Camp 7) 40 Riding Bowmen, 30 Riding Amazonian Guards
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [62S (-)] {120 - 140 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [58R 31E 11C (-)] {100 - 160 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [15R 9S 41E 11C (-)] {100 - 160 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [5S 107B (-)] {140 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [5E 107B (-)] {140 seconds of fighting}
From C to Camp 8) 60 Nomads, 75 Riding Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (90R - 112R - 132R)] {80 seconds of fighting}
ANY general: [115R 85S (80R - 102R - 115R 1S)] {80 seconds of fighting}
BATTLE HARDENED general: [115R 85S (80R - 102R - 115R 1S)] {40 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [96R 135S (80R - 90R - 96R 1S)] {30 seconds of fighting}
MASTER of Martial Arts: [96R 124S (80R - 90R - 96R 1S)] {20 seconds of fighting}
The remaining marching time for general C to his camp 8, from the moment when general B starts his fight on camp 7, is less than 20 seconds. Thus, if you haven't got a fast general, avoid using the blocks having a minimum length of 100 seconds. Otherwise, this block still leaves a margin of some 20 seconds. For increased safety, use the block lasting 140 seconds.
The following 1R block is recommended only if you lack the needed troops for the round block above.
Send both generals right after each other:
From B to Camp 7) 30 Riding Amazonian Guards, 40 Riding Bowmen
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [1R (1R)] {20 seconds of fighting}
From C to Camp 8) 60 Nomads, 75 Riding Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (90R - 112R - 132R)]
ANY general: [115R 85S (80R - 102R - 115R 1S)]
It takes about 15 seconds for general C to engage camp 8, from the moment when general B starts his fight on camp 7.
And if you still do not want to use any blocks:
From B to Camp 7) 30 Riding Amazonian Guards, 40 Riding Bowmen
ANY general: [167R (60R - 66R - 70R)]
ANY general: [69R 70S (60R - 66R - 69R)]
ANY general: [69S 69B (69B)]
From C to Camp 8) 60 Nomads, 75 Riding Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (90R - 112R - 132R)]
ANY general: [115R 85S (80R - 102R - 115R 1S)]
Garrison Position G2 (Camps 3-5, ROUND BLOCK)
Note!
If you want to use a 1R block, instead of the round block, skip this part and jump to the next section, Garrison Position G3 now.
The following round block is recommended if you do have a fast general. Send both generals right after each other:
From A to Camp 3) 60 Lance Riders
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [31S 1C (-)] {120 - 200 seconds of fighting}
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [27E 3C (-)] {140 - 220 seconds of fighting, 0.4% chance of 120 seconds}
From C to Camp 5) 80 Lance Riders, 120 Composite Bowmen
BATTLE HARDENED general: [81R 119S (57R - 71R - 81R 1S)] {40 seconds of fighting}
VETERAN general: [37R 200S (30R - 36R - 37R 1S)] {30 seconds of fighting}
MASTER of Martial Arts: [37R 183S (30R - 36R - 37R 1S)] {20 seconds of fighting}
The remaining marching time for general C to camp 5, from the moment when general A starts his fight on camp 3, is less than 50 seconds. Thus, in the worst case, the total marching and fighting time for general C is less than 90 seconds, leaving a margin of at least 30 seconds to the block lasting 120 seconds or more.
If you do not want to use any blocks:
Camp 3) 60 Lance Riders
ANY general: [130R (22R - 27R - 30R)]
ANY general: [27R 60S (22R - 26R - 27R 1S)]
Camp 5) 80 Lance Riders, 120 Composite Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (70R - 88R - 106R)]
ANY general: [81R 119S (57R - 71R - 81R 1S)]
When camps 3 and 5 have been killed, attack the last remaining leader, camp 4:
From C to Camp 4) 90 Nomads, 90 Composite Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (30R - 43R - 62R)]
ANY general: [68R 132LB (29R - 33R - 38R)]
ANY general: [38R 162S (29R - 33R - 38R 1S)]
ANY general: [36R 39S 125LB (28R - 33R - 36R)]
ANY general: [36R 39S 125XB (28R - 33R - 36R)]
VETERAN general: [36R 175S (28R - 33R - 36R)]
MAJOR general: [34R 1E 235C (26R - 31R - 34R)]

Garrison Position G3 (Camps 3-4, 1R BLOCK)
If you skipped the round block for Camps 3-5 above, continue here.
Move your best general and one normal general (for the 1R block) to garrision position G3:- Position A: NORMAL general (needed for a 1R block)
- Position B: ANY general
The following 1R block is recommended if you do not have a fast general. Send both generals right after each other:
From A to Camp 3) 60 Lance Riders
BLOCKING NORMAL general: [1R (1R)] {20 seconds of fighting}
From B to Camp 4) 90 Nomads, 90 Composite Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (30R - 43R - 62R)]
ANY general: [68R 132LB (29R - 33R - 38R)]
ANY general: [38R 162S (29R - 33R - 38R 1S)]
ANY general: [36R 39S 125LB (28R - 33R - 36R)]

VETERAN general: [36R 175S (28R - 33R - 36R)]
MAJOR general: [34R 1E 235C (26R - 31R - 34R)]
MASTER of Martial Arts: [33R 1S 186C (25R - 30R - 33R)]
It takes less than 10 seconds for general B to engage camp 4, from the moment when general A starts his fight on camp 3.
Garrison Position G4 (Camp 5)
Move your best general to G4:
Camp 5) 80 Lance Riders, 120 Composite Bowmen
ANY general: [200R (70R - 88R - 106R)]
ANY general: [81R 119S (57R - 71R - 81R 1S)]

MASTER of Martial Arts: [37R 183S (30R - 36R - 37R 1S)]
All garrison setups have been simulated at least 5000 times, using this simulator.
Even if I do the utmost to ensure that no errors occur anywhere, I am only human, and errors might always appear.
Thus, I do recommend that you double-check all setups in the simulator, especially before trying an attack the first time in a newly published setup.
All garrison setups where recruits and soldiers are included have a very small chance of one or a few soldiers being killed.
I prefer having it so tight, that in most cases that one soldier survives and actually might save one recruit by taking the last hits in the battle.
That being said, be prepared to lose the odd soldier(s) after playing the same adventure hundreds or thousands of times...
On the other hand, all garrison setups have also been made so that the risk of losing longbows or crossbows is next to negligible.
Due to this, some setups have more recruits/soldiers than what can be seen in other guides.
In some cases this will increase the maximum losses (of recruits), but save the rare occasion of losing crossbows.
All round blocks have been optimised using Andelar's TSO battle simulator V1.0.1.
