After around fifteen minutes, Yue Yun brought Jiang Chu to a prefectural yamen, which was temporarily commandeered by the army as the commander camp.

Along the way, Jiang Chu saw many commoners helping Yue Army transport strategic goods. There were also commoners who made way for their houses to be occupied by the soldiers.

However, Yue Army only allowed the injured to be brought into the Hundred Family Residence, while the other soldiers had to set up tents on the streets, so as to not disturb the lives of the commoners.

Jiang Chu secretly nodded his head and thought: No wonder the people respected Prince Yue and he built a temple to pay tribute to them. It seems that he was truly good to the common people.

Arriving at the yamen’s office, Jiang Chu saw more than ten generals discussing among themselves. There was one person seated on the most innermost grandteacher’s chair. If Jiang Chu did not guess wrongly, it was precisely Yue Fei, Yue Pengju.

Even though he was sitting there, his killing intent was oppressive. Two slanted eyebrows were stuck into his temples. A pair of almond-shaped eyes, an imposing heroic air, a nose that was like a phoenix hanging in the air, and a curved mouth; he truly was a handsome man.

It was just that the Marshal Yue had toiled for his country for more than a decade before charging into the sea of flames at the base of the blade, leading his soldiers to battle day and night to regain their territory. At just over thirty years of age, he had already gone through many hardships and there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Just as Yue Yun wanted to go up and report to him, he was stopped by Jiang Chu, who said softly: General Yue, please wait for a moment. Let the Marshal Yue finish with his work, it’s not too late to talk about it later.

Yue Yun looked at Jiang Chu, nodded and said: Jin Wushu that fellow has already gathered all the troops, and will soon attack here. Marshal Yue has already decided, even if it is the last person, he will still want to protect Ying Chang City.

Jiang Chu was also provoked by Yue Yun’s words. He said resolutely, “All reactionaries are paper tigers, no matter how many that come, we will destroy them.”

Yue Yun was stunned when he heard Jiang Chu’s words. He asked curiously: I know what paper tiger is, what is a reactionary?

Jiang Chu coughed awkwardly, and said: “That, is an invader or rebel.”

As the two of them were chatting, the discussion in the hall had already ended. Yue Yun said: Mr. Jiang, please wait for a while, I will go and report to Marshal Yue.

After a while, Yue Fei walked out of the hall, and arrived in front of Jiang Chu after sizing him up for a while, then asked: “Sir, may I know what are you doing in my army?

Jiang Chu laughed, “Marshal Yue, I came all the way here from Luan’an, naturally I have something to discuss with you. It’s just that this is not the place for me to talk.”

Yue Fei laughed out loud: Since you are here from Lin An, then let’s talk inside the hall. Sir, please.

Seeing that Yue Fei was so bold, and did not suspect that he was a spy, Jiang Chu was relieved and thought to himself: The ancients said that experts are brave, it seems like they are not lying. In front of absolute strength, all schemes and tricks are useless. In terms of individual strength, Yue Fei was definitely an expert. If a spy dared to enter his army alone, that would be asking for trouble. Therefore, Yue Fei did not care whether that spy was a spy or not.

Yue Fei’s personality was straightforward, and he was not one to drag his feet. After entering the hall, Jiang Chu said sternly: Marshal Yue, the reason I sought to see you was to help you repel the enemy.

Hearing Jiang Chu’s words, Yue Fei frowned, he thought for a moment and said: “Mr. Jiang, do you know that our army is facing against a hundred thousand Steel Cavalry?

Jiang Chu smiled and said: “Everything is within my control. Marshal Yue doesn’t need to think too much about it, I can definitely assist you in retreating from the enemy. With that said, he quietly stared at Yue Fei, completely unafraid of his killing intent.

Yue Fei was startled at first, but then laughed out loud: Mr. Jiang, I have fought in the battlefield for more than ten years, and have fought with the gold soldiers a hundred times, I know how powerful the gold soldiers are. The enemy commander, Jin Wushu, is a talented general. This time, he has personally led the great army, with only thirty thousand cavalry and a hundred thousand infantry, my Ying Chang City has a total of thirty thousand soldiers. We do not have any confidence in retreating.

Hearing Yue Fei’s words, Jiang Chu could understand that he was just a stranger who came to this place to criticize and make comments, to make people believe him.

Thinking about that, Jiang Chu waved his hand, and a spear floated in the corner in front of him. He said to Yue Fei: “I can help you build a cavalry unit that is invulnerable to weapons, do you believe me?”

Jiang Chu’s action caused Yue Fei to be so shocked that he jumped up from his teacher’s chair, while Yue Yun and the other generals were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground.

After being stunned for just a moment, Yue Yun suddenly rushed in front of Yue Fei and shouted angrily at him with the spear in his hand: “What are you trying to do?!”

Jiang Chu did not reply, with a wave of his hand, the spear directly pierced into the pillar of the court, and the entire tip of the spear disappeared. This move caused everyone in the hall to be dumbstruck, only Yue Fei’s eyes lit up.

Yue Fei cupped his hands: “So Mr. Jiang is actually Men Of The Gate Of Wonders, excuse me.”

Jiang Chu smiled and said: Marshal Yue, can we talk now?

Yue Fei waved his hand and ordered: All of you leave, I have something important to discuss with Mr. Jiang.

However, Jiang Chu said: General Yue Yun can stay.

After the crowd left, Jiang Chu said: Marshal Yue, the Golden Soldiers will arrive in a few hours. Go and prepare what I requested, I want to establish a Elite Armament to hinder the Jinguo army.

Before Yue Fei could reply, Yue Yun asked. Immortal Master Jiang, although your mana is strong, how can you build an Elite Armament in a short few hours?

Jiang Chu laughed and said: General Yue, come and see. With that, he turned his hand and took out a gold talisman, which he placed on his body. The gold light shone suddenly, and Jiang Chu’s imposing manner became extremely tyrannical.

General Yue, I will stand here and not move. You come attack me again, and if you can hurt me even the slightest bit, I will leave immediately.

But Yue Yun did not dare to act rashly, and looked towards Yue Fei. At the same time, Yue Fei was also excited, his eyes lit up and he nodded towards Yue Yun.

Yue Yun waved his spear and stabbed towards Jiang Chu’s chest. With a crisp dang sound, the spear bounced back as if it had hit a steel plate. Although Yue Yun did not use all his strength, he could still sense that he would not be able to break this talisman in a short amount of time.

Yue Fei laughed at the sky: Immortal Master Jiang, with you helping me, why should I be afraid of Golden Armaments.

In the next few hours, Jiang Chu did not rest at all, he drew an entire eight hundred gold talismans, using cinnabar and iron powder. Although the materials were not good, it was still able to last him half a day.

If it was an expert like Yue Yun, he would probably be able to break through the Golden Armor Rune’s defense in a few hits. But, how many people within the golden weapons could be compared to Yue Yun’s bravery?

Although he did not know how strong Yue Fei and Yue Yun were, Jiang Chu was certain that Yue Yun’s strength was definitely not inferior to Li Wenwu’s. Therefore, Yue Yun’s fighting strength could be imagined.

As for Yue Fei, Jiang Chu guessed that he might be an expert from the Heaven Perfection Stage. In the future generations, he would be an existence from legends, equivalent to an expert from the Golden Pill Stage.

Jiang Chu handed over the completed eight hundred talismans to Yue Fei: Marshal Yue, these talismans can be used by eight hundred soldiers. As for how to use them, it’s up to you.

Yue Fei was so emotional that he couldn’t even speak, he saluted Jiang Chu and said: Immortal Master Jiang, on behalf of the entire army, I thank you for your kindness.

However, Jiang Chu laughed bitterly and did not say a word. Actually, he had only done all these for Zhao Kuangyin, or perhaps it should be Chi Longzi.

Yue Fei turned and said to Yue Yun: Gather all the soldiers here.

On July 14, 1440, in Ying Chang Palace, Yue Fei threw down an arrow and shouted: Yue Yun obeys orders, orders you to lead 800 of your cavalrymen to intercept the Golden Army in the west of Ying Chang City, if you are defeated, you will be executed.

The moment the order was given, the soldiers of the three armies were immediately shocked. According to the military report, the Golden Soldiers numbered 30,000, while the infantry numbered more than 100,000.

Someone wanted to speak, but Yue Yun took the order badge and said: Marshal, please rest assured. If I lose, I am willing to lead.

Since Yue Yun had already received the order, what could the others say? They could only shake their heads. Some people secretly thought that Yue Yun was young and proud, overestimating himself. There were also some people who thought that Yue Yun was a tiger father without a dog son, and knew that there was a tiger on the mountain, so he walked towards it.

At the top of Ying Chang City, Jiang Chu and Yue Fei stood shoulder to shoulder, looking at the battlefield. Yue Yun took the lead and led the eight hundred soldiers. Amongst the tens of thousands of soldiers, they walked in and out as if there was no one around them. Those that were directly killed were blood men, while horses were blood horses.

Yue Fei shouted: Wang Gui, Niu Gao listen to my orders, each of you bring ten thousand elite soldiers to attack from two sides, encircling and killing the golden army, no mistakes can be made.

The battle had left the sky and the earth dark. Flesh and blood filled the sky, and corpses littered the ground. It lasted for a total of five hours. His Yue Army had utterly defeated a golden army, over five thousand soldiers were slain, over two thousand were captured, seventy-eight were generals, and he had obtained over three thousand warhorses. Even Jin Wushu’s son-in-law was killed by Yue Yun on the spot. Jin Wushu did not dare to fight anymore, and led his troops to Kai Feng.
