Due the fact that registering at the official Koei forums is not possible, I'll asking this here.
To get the Vacuum Book special item I have to complete following stuff: A) Playing Zeng Ji Legend B) Change side by joining Cao Pi C) 200 kills in 5 min D) Precious item message near Cao Pi starting location.
The problem with this quest is that in 5 min I get only about 180 kills because no enemy is left after about 4 to 4 min 30 sec!
Used character: Lu Bu (Zeng Ji is not maxed out yet) Difficulty: Novice.

Try standing a bit away from the gates that pump out the troops, Exit the castle at the beginning of the stage. After Joining Wei go back into the castle right away. The castle will close Defeat all enemy Officers and Generals except Yuan Xi. Get 150 KOs.
And try equiping the Vorpal orb for occasional death and a good elixer to pump Zhen Ji's musou up faster, a reach and attack up would help too.
By using Lu Bu you are probably killing everyone too fast, try building up Zhen Ji a bit before you attempt it as her.
Hope that helps you.

I tried to spare the officers at the entry points but it is still not possible to get 200 kills in 5 minutes due the lack of troops entering at the entry points in 5 minutes.
I get the 200th kill after about 6 to 7 minutes not depending on which general I use. (Tried Zeng Ji which is ranged 6 and lvl 3 weapon and Lu Bu which is ranged max with lvl 9 weapon)
Can it be that the entry speed is higher at higher difficulty levels?
You believe the Vorbal orb will help with these high HP guarding officers? I have one but it is only lvl 1.

Try switching sides as Zhen Ji and see if that helps, you need you orb level higher too, I suggest some work-out time with Zhen Ji and the orbs/items to increase them. Play on hard mode at 'battle of Xu Chang' last Shu or Nanman battle against Cao Cao, you can grab some pretty high level items there, I got a lv 20 speed myself there recently.

Using Zeng Ji does not work fine because of the same problem as with Lu Bu: No target left after 4 minutes and with 180 kills. The resupply of troops takes too long to get 200 kills before 5 min. Probably I have to try it with Chi Chin (a self maded general with the 5 shot bow attack as his charge attack.) I have the flame arrows which are compatible with this charge attack..

OK tested it with several generals but I need 6 to 7 min to get 200 kills just due the lack of reinforcements of the enemy. 180 kills are possible in 4 minutes.

No problem, in fact I perhaps see now how I am attracting so many new members here this week, all I can say is be paitent, I moderate at koei forums and I am attempting to discuss with the Koei admin there what can be done. He is quite busy but has promised to look into the problem.

You are not the only one. I noticed the issues with the Koei.com forum is now more than 2 month old and because there is no way to contact the boards admin therefore I have told that to Iain.

The only reason i got my own e-mail adress was to join the Koei forums, I guess that didn't go as planned. Oh well, this site is just as good if not better. This is starting to get off topic now. We should get back to your problems Meng.

My advice is to go on a harder difficulty. Normal or hard is best - just hard enough so your allies will not kill the enemy as you want the kills. Plus with a maxed out character you will still kill the enemy quickly. Vorpal orb is best as this increases the speed of your kills.
Also, if you have the shadow runner saddle use that, Ma Chao or Zhou Tai, the mounted attack item and place it on hard difficulty. And remember to stay away from the gate captain so you do not kill him (this can sometimes be frustrating as the closer to the gate you are the more troops the gate will produce).
