Story:
According to legend, King Wu of Zhou led his vassals to attack King Zhou of Shang. Banners fluttered, battle cries filled the air, and the fighting was fierce. Lu Yanggong, a general under King Wu, fought with increasing bravery, routing the enemy.
As dusk approached, Lu Yanggong raised his long halberd and waved it towards the sun, roaring like thunder. The sun then retreated three constellations, restoring daylight, which allowed them to completely wipe out the enemy forces.
