LF title of an awesome strategy game

[woutR]

I am writing about Genghis Khan in my final paper, and it made me remember an awesome strategy game which was about the wars in ancient China.

I really only vaguely remember the game, I think I played the demo. In the demo you had a big city with very big walls. You could post archers on top of the wall and there was a 'teleport' to the enemy's city which would make you switch mini map as well.
As said earlier the game focuses primarily on wars between the Asian dynasties. It is not Age of Empires III: Asian Dynasties

I know I am very vague in my wording, and that hurts me more than you considering I really want to play this game again.
I would appreciate any help and I'll try to answer question as detailed as possible if you have any.
The game is probably 8+ years old.

Thanks

Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom? If that's it, you have awesome taste, it's my favourite strategy game ever.

I'm afraid it's not
At first when I googled pics it really looked like it, but the game I am looking for doesn't revolve around building a great city. It's just a 'regular' strategy game. Maybe I should have said RTS, but that's still the same, right?

But thank you for trying, looks like you were really close because the games look a like.

Not China, but Japan.

I think I may have played this as well, the demo only too. It's been driving me crazy every time I remember that I can't remember the name

Were there "heroes" that you could get from a tavern or something like that in it?

And when you got attacked the enemies came right up to the gate?

Edt: Fate of the Dragon?

Spoiler!

This is the game I've been looking for! I don't know if it's yours though

That's it thanks man!

Damn, It's the same game that I've been also looking for(the actual cd since I remember keeping it somewhere with my other classic games.) but can't probably got cleaned out of the house. I remember playing it when I was smaller, can't remember exactly why but I just recall the game being awesome.
