As a unified country after the Qin Dynasty, the formation process of the Han Dynasty is also talked about. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, due to the serious annexation of land, Qin II was incompetent and incompetent to trust eunuchs, resulting in the people's livelihood. The so-called oppression has motivation, and under these oppressions, the peasants spontaneously formed an army of insurrection.
At this time, there was the first rebel army, that is, the famous Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprising. At the same time, another army was Xiang Yu, who claimed to be a descendant of the Chu state, and wanted to attack the Qin Dynasty to rebuild the Chu state. Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, also decided not to remain silent because of the oppression of the Qin Dynasty, so he launched an uprising in Pei County.
After Liu Bang's uprising, the team grew rapidly and received high praise in the local area, and there were many capable people and strangers willing to follow Liu Bang, and Zhang Liang was one of them. Zhang Liang originally wanted to go to other people, but met Liu Bang on the way, and after a conversation with Liu Bang, he thought that Liu Bang had a different mind and must be a person who would become a big thing in the future, so he gave up the idea of defecting to others and decided to stay and help Liu Bang with advice.
Although the Qin Dynasty was chaotic, its military strength was still very strong, and if it wanted to completely overthrow the Qin Dynasty, it was not enough to rely on a few teams, so Zhang Liang suggested that Liu Bang go to Xiang Yu, and the two joined forces to fight against the Qin Dynasty. Sure enough, they joined forces and soon attacked the Qin Dynasty together. Originally, I thought that after eliminating the great troubles of the Qin Dynasty, the world would be able to live and work in peace and contentment, but in fact, this was not the case, and the two leaders had a dispute over their status.
Liu Bang had lofty ambitions and was not willing to be Xiang Yu's subordinate, he only wanted to claim the title of king himself, so he came to Hanzhong early. On the other hand, Xiang Yu was also pointed out by his subordinates, and if he wanted to sit firmly in the world, he had to get rid of Liu Bang, so Xiang Yu came to Hanzhong to kill Liu Bang. Liu Bang was very scared when he heard this, and asked his men if they could avoid this disaster. Someone proposed to Liu Bang that Xiang Yu be invited to a banquet and that he would retire at the banquet. This is the famous allusion to the "Hongmen Feast".
After this time, Xiang Yu returned to his senses and found that he had been tricked by Liu Bang, so he wanted to pursue Liu Bang, and the Chu-Han war officially began.
In 205 BC, Liu Bang had been establishing the Han Dynasty for two years, and the strength of the country had become larger, so he called on other countries to attack Xiang Yu together. Suddenly, Xiang Yu became the target of everyone and was attacked by other countries. Liu Bang was confident about this war, but he did not expect that Xiang Yu's military ability was very strong, and he only used his own 30,000 troops to successfully defeat Liu Bang's 500,000 troops, becoming the biggest defeat in Liu Bang's life. Liu Bang's father, Liu Taigong and Lü Hou, were also captured by Xiang Yu because of this battle.
After Xiang Yu won this battle, he took advantage of the victory to pursue and wanted to annihilate the Han Kingdom in one fell swoop, but he underestimated the Han Dynasty's defensive capabilities. The army was pressed under the Han Dynasty, but Liu Bang should not fight, and the siege could not be attacked for a long time, so Xiang Yu thought of a plan to use Liu Bang's father to threaten Liu Bang and let him go out to fight. Who knew that Liu Bang did not worry about his father's safety, let alone send troops to meet the battle, which made Xiang Yu unexpected.
Liu Bang never came out and forced Xiang Yu to hurry, and Xiang Yu wrote a letter of war and ordered someone to send it to him, which said that he wanted to go head-to-head with him. Of course, Liu Bang was not stupid, Xiang Yu was tall and strong in martial arts, and he and he singled out eggs touching stones, so he did not fight.
Xiang Yu saw that he should not fight, so he sent several soldiers to the city tower to provoke him, but they were all killed by random arrows. This can give Xiang Yu a bad breath, and he himself came forward to meet the battle, and the momentum was compelling. When the Han army saw him coming in person, he should not act rashly, so he did not dare to shoot arrows. Liu Bang heard that he did not believe that Xiang Yu would come in person, so he went up to check it out. As soon as Xiang Yu saw him coming, he immediately picked up his bow and arrow and shot at Liu Bang's heart, right in the middle of Liu Bang's chest.
In order to stabilize the hearts of the army, Liu Bang pulled out the arrow and loudly said to Xiang Yu that Xiang Yu did not shoot, and the matter was over, but Liu Bang's wound was very serious, and fortunately it was treated in time at that time, so that there was no root of the disease.
The ancient Chinese game chess was formed based on the story of the battle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, and the river between them is also known as the Chu River Han Jie. There is a rule in chess that there are no pawns between the general and the marshal, and when the two meet, one side can directly defeat the general of the other side, which is called "drinking". And this rule is based on the incident of Liu Bang's arrow.
It can be seen that chinese culture is broad and profound, and a small rule of chess is a reflection of a battle in ancient times, which shows the wisdom of the ancients.
The Chu-Han rivalry between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu is still talked about today, both of them were tyrants of that era, Liu Bang was good at using scheming, while Xiang Yu was brave and invincible, a typical civil-martial struggle, and finally GengZhi Xiang Yu became a loser, and also committed suicide because he had no face to face Jiangdong's father.
