About this vehicle

With coiled beard and fierce eyes, Cheng Yaojin was a bold, skilled spearman. Favored by fortune, he rose to head an army. His humor diffused crises, and behind his bravado was a sharp mind. He outwitted brute force and seized the initiative to overwhelm his foes. His "three axe-blows" settled any dispute. Fighting beside Qin Shubao, he shielded Prince Qin, broke enemy lines, and earned fame above his peers. His deeds won him a portrait in the Lingyan Pavilion, and in tales and songs he was hailed as the "The king of chaotic times, and the greatest of all heroes to rise from the common folk!"
