So Liang taught him the art of war. But he didn't want to learn after studying for a while, so Liang had to follow him and leave him alone. Xiang Yu can carry the tripod (pronounced as gāng, pronounced as "steel") (the origin of the word "overlord lifts the tripod"), and he was ambitious when he was young. When Qin Shihuang visited Zhejiang (now Qiantang River), Xiang Yu saw that his chariots and horses were magnificent and said to Xiang Liang, "I can replace him."
In the first year of Qin Ershi (209 BC), Chen Sheng and Guangwu rose up in osawa Township (that is, the Daze Township Uprising), and Xiang Yu responded with his uncle Xiang Liang's assassination of the satrap Yin Tong and his troops in Wuzhong. In this campaign, Xiang Yu single-handedly killed nearly 100 guards of Yintong, showing his unparalleled martial arts for the first time! Twenty-four-year-old Xiang Yu led 8,000 people from Wuzhong (now Huzhou) to fight against Qin and stepped onto the historical stage.
