After transmigrating to the final years of the Yuan dynasty, Yue Gang becomes a descendant of Yue Fei, Prince of E.
Possessing the Yue family's martial prowess, he finds himself amid a world in turmoil, with the Yuan court rotten to the core and warlords rising everywhere.
By chance, he meets the fierce general Chang Yuchun. The two swear brotherhood and, united in purpose, lead the young men of their home village to join Zhu Yuanzhang.
From enlisting in Haozhou to fighting bloody battles at Hongdu;
from securing the realm at Poyang to marching north to reclaim the Central Plains.
Leading his elite Beiwei troops into battle, he defeats Chen Youliang, destroys Zhang Shicheng, and sweeps away the Mongol Yuan.
He schemes not for power, nor plays mind games. He wins his fame with nothing but blade and spear.
Zhu Yuanzhang relies on him as a trusted enforcer, and Chang Yuchun regards him as a brother. When the Ming dynasty is founded, he ranks among its founding heroes, his name recorded in the annals of history.
Yue Gang stands with a hand on his sword:
“I am a descendant of the Prince of E. I will reclaim our rivers and mountains, assist a worthy ruler, and accomplish deeds without equal!”
