Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is a legendary hero in the history of China, and many stories related to him have gradually evolved into idioms. It is unprecedented that so many idiom stories happen to one person. But in 2 10 BC, Qin Shihuang marched through Huiji (now Suzhou, Jiangsu), and Xiang Yu also went to watch it with everyone. Xiang Yu, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help but blurt out, "He can replace him." This sentence alone shows Xiang Yu's ambition and heroism. After the pre-emptive Chen Sheng uprising, Yin Tong, the magistrate of Huiji, also wanted to take the opportunity to fight against Qin. When he summoned Xiang Yu in September 209 BC, he said, "Now is a good time to destroy Qin. It is said that the first attack is the first, and the second attack is the second. I want to join you as soon as possible. " Is Xiang Yu, who comes from a famous family, willing to entrust himself to others?

Burn one's bridges In 208 BC, Zhang Han, commander-in-chief of the Qin Dynasty, commanded Qin Jun's main force to surround the giant deer, and Xiang Yu led his troops to rescue it. In order to show his determination to die, Xiang Yu led his troops across the river. "The boat is sinking, the pot is broken, the house is burning, and three diets show that the foot soldiers will die, and no one will return." Xiang Yu led the army to break the route for providing foodstuff for Qin Jun and fought fiercely with Qin Jun for nine games. "Chu soldiers are all equal to one." . Qin lost his troops, and Xiang Yu chased them, forcing Zhang Han to surrender his remnants. Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was to entertain Emperor Gaozu in Hong Men (near Lintong, Shaanxi) after Pei Gong was overthrown in the Qin Dynasty. At the banquet, Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu's counselor, motioned for Xiang Yu to kill Emperor Gaozu several times, but Xiang Yu ignored it because he could not bear it. So, in the name of sword dancing, Fan Zeng asked Xiang Zhuang to kill Emperor Gaozu. Seeing the emergency, Sean, the counselor of Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, went out to call Fan Kuai and said, "Now Xiangzhuang's sword dance is often aimed at Pei Gong." So Fan Kuai walked into the banquet hall with a sword and shield, accusing Xiang Yu of breaking his word. Xiang Yu was impressed by Fan Kuai's momentum, and Emperor Gaozu took the opportunity to escape. After washing monkeys to destroy Qin, Xiang Yu led his army into Xianyang and burned it wantonly. The fire in Xianyang lasted for three days. The adviser advised Xiang Yu: "Guanzhong is surrounded by mountains and waters, and the land is rich and beautiful, which can be used as the capital of the overlord." Xiang Yu refused on the pretext that "wealth does not return to his hometown, just like walking in the brocade at night, and no one knows it." The person who advised him sighed: "People say that the Chu people take bathing monkeys as their crown, and it really happens." Hearing this, Xiang Yu killed the person who said this. He was attacked on all sides, and because of his headstrong and cruel temperament, he lost the support of his advisers and the people. Xiang Yu was finally defeated in the "Chu-Han dispute" and was surrounded by the army of Emperor Gaozu in Gaixia (now south of Lingbi, Anhui). At night, the military camp was besieged on all sides, and Xiang Yu was frightened. Seeing that the tide was gone, he led deus ex and fled to the Wujiang River. Because he consciously "has no face to see his elders in Jiangdong", Xiang Yu did not commit suicide by crossing the boat.
