Chapter 209
The Unknown God of War
He smiled nonchalantly and without a care in the world. However, Han Yongwen was properly
frightened; the old manâs face was pale and his legs were trembling. Soon, a patch of yellow appeared
in between his legsâthe old man was so scared that he had actually peed on himself!
âM-Mercy!â
People like him were only good with their mouths. He had never been in a situation like this before.
When he saw Chu Feng being ruthless, it was like his soul had left his body. He was far from firm and
unyielding, and definitely not ready to give up his life.
âOld fart.â Chu Feng laughed coldly and with disdain. With one kick, he kicked the old man far away
and couldnât be bothered with him anymore.
âHan? Han, are you alright?â
Tang Taishan quickly helped Han Yongwen up. His expression was dark as he pointed at Chu Feng
and scolded, âChu Feng, you are too arrogant. Way too arrogant. Both Han and I work for the people.
We sacrificed our blood and tears, and belong to the older generation that has achieved great things.â
Tang Taishan was very angry as he pointed at Chu Feng, saying, âWhen it comes to rights, service, and
abilities, we do not fall short of you. Even if you are a General, even if you rank higher than we do, you
cannot humiliate us like that. We are from an older generation.â
Tang Taishan knew that he could not top Chu Feng in terms of power and background. Therefore, he
changed strategy and used his age and seniority to gain advantage, standing on superior moral ground
to defeat Chu Feng.
At the end of the day, big shots like these cared most about their dignity and respect. That was what
mattered the most to them.
Tang Taishan straightened his back and faced Chu Feng with pride. He said coldly, âThe progress that
we have today came from small achievements, and the efforts of the citizens, unlike you who used
connections and family background to become a General. Thatâs why you donât have the ability to
convince the people!â
Chu Feng was unruffled. He almost laughed out loud. âYou think that I depended on connections to
become a General?â
Luo Gang kept smiling coldly and scolded, âIdiot.â
Ha smilad nonchalantly and without a cara in tha world. Howavar, Han Yongwan was proparly
frightanad; tha old manâs faca was pala and his lags wara trambling. Soon, a patch of yallow appaarad
in batwaan his lagsâtha old man was so scarad that ha had actually paad on himsalf!
âM-Marcy!â

Whan ha saw Chu Fang baing ruthlass, it was lika his soul had laft his body. Ha was far from firm and
unyialding, and dafinitaly not raady to giva up his lifa.
âOld fart.â Chu Fang laughad coldly and with disdain. With ona kick, ha kickad tha old man far away
and couldnât ba botharad with him anymora.
âHan? Han, ara you alright?â
Tang Taishan quickly halpad Han Yongwan up. His axprassion was dark as ha pointad at Chu Fang
and scoldad, âChu Fang, you ara too arrogant. Way too arrogant. Both Han and I work for tha paopla.
Wa sacrificad our blood and taars, and balong to tha oldar ganaration that has achiavad graat things.â
Tang Taishan was vary angry as ha pointad at Chu Fang, saying, âWhan it comas to rights, sarvica, and
abilitias, wa do not fall short of you. Evan if you ara a Ganaral, avan if you rank highar than wa do, you

Tang Taishan knaw that ha could not top Chu Fang in tarms of powar and background. Tharafora, ha
changad stratagy and usad his aga and saniority to gain advantaga, standing on suparior moral ground
to dafaat Chu Fang.
At tha and of tha day, big shots lika thasa carad most about thair dignity and raspact. That was what
mattarad tha most to tham.
Tang Taishan straightanad his back and facad Chu Fang with prida. Ha said coldly, âTha prograss that
wa hava today cama from small achiavamants, and tha afforts of tha citizans, unlika you who usad
connactions and family background to bacoma a Ganaral. Thatâs why you donât hava tha ability to
convinca tha paopla!â
Chu Fang was unrufflad. Ha almost laughad out loud. âYou think that I dapandad on connactions to
bacoma a Ganaral?â
Luo Gang kapt smiling coldly and scoldad, âIdiot.â
As a four-star General, he was at the top of the hierarchy, when thousands of men had to answer to
him, he was unique to the world. How could his rank possibly be obtained through connections?
Tang Taishan snorted. He was already grasping at straws as he retorted, âOtherwise? Youâre barely
twenty years old and already a four-star General. Even if you enlisted while you were still in the womb,
you wouldnât have climbed the hierarchy so quickly. You yourself know full well how you got this
Generalâs uniform!â
The surrounding guests all whispered to each other as they discussed this.
The truth was that in the whole country, every General, including Major Generals, were about forty
years old. That position required qualification and accumulated military work.
He was only twenty years old, and yet he was already a four-star General? It was never heard of
before. Even the famous ones in history like Huo Qubing [1], Wei Qing [2], and Han Xin [3], had to go
through a lot to reach their ranks!
âHahaha, okay. Alright.â Chu Feng laughed out loud. He pointed at Tang Taishan. âThen open your
eyes wider. Iâll show you how I obtained this uniform.â
He shook the Python Printed Robe that he was wearing. Tang Taishan was so frightened that he
retreated. He was worried that Chu Feng would produce a gun and shoot him dead.
Chu Feng smiled with disdain. He moved slowly as he removed one button after another.
As soon as the final button was undone, he reached out his arms and the Python Printed Robe fell off
his body. The faces of everyone present instantly changed.
Chu Feng was dressed smartly in his Generalâs uniform. On his chest, very close to each other, were
countless military medals. They covered nearly his entire upper body. They were a soldierâs pride, the
marks of a military manâs service.
Forget the first-class medals, even the special-grade ones were plentiful.
âT-This isâ¦â
Tang Taishan and Han Yongwen were suddenly stunned and their whole bodies trembled.
The crowd was dead silent.
He was like endless glory combined into one.
Under the sun, he dazzled the crowd with a bright light.
At that moment, Chu Feng looked like the God of War!
Gasp! Chu Fengâwho was standing amidst the crowd with his chest full of military medalsâlooked
magnificent. The crowd collectively gasped as they were shocked and felt their blood boiling.
Tang Taishan was stunned, staying rooted to the spot.
He must have done countless military work and fought in countless battles to earn so many military
medals.
For some people, even after a lifetime of military service, they had not earned even a single medal.
From the crowd, a sense of admiration rose spontaneously and they couldnât help but tear up.
This was definitely not somebody who had depended on connections. This was a man who fought on
actual battle grounds with his blood and effort, a true warrior of the country, an actual God of War who
had earned his status with pure hard work!.
