Hidden Axes are a light assault infantry unit unique to Zheng Jiang in Total War: Three Kingdoms. They are a Metal class retinue unit and are preferably grouped with Champion class heroes. They are available to all characters rank 3 or higher when playing as Zheng Jiang, and also have a ranged attack.

Description[]

  • A group of screaming enemy soldiers charging towards you is unnerving, but when those soldiers are holding axes, it becomes terrifying. Though the heavy fu axe was once used as a tool, it has been repurposed for the battlefield - now its chief purpose is to split foes' skulls. These warriors are considered shock-troops because of their powerful charge, which staggers enemies and leaves them vulnerable; the ferocious swing of their dual axes carve through their enemies in short time.
