In the chaotic world, the capable will win the world. Throughout Chinese history, countless dynasties have risen in the chaotic world and died in the chaotic world, and this is the most common change of dynasties in the world.
In a chaotic world, where everyone's identity is equal, their only way out is to fight and play.
When it comes to fighting and fighting, people often think of war, but in reality there is another way to express fighting and fighting - chess. In the long history of China, chess is undoubtedly a crystallization of wisdom, although its origin is still controversial, but its significance is still extraordinary.
If violence and cruelty are a matter of war, then wisdom and boldness are chess. Chess is actually a derivative of war, a product of people's intelligence in reviewing war and playing against each other. This seemingly small chess game actually has its own connotation and huge historical background, and its interest is endless.
Chaos arises, chess begins
Chess is based on the exact same chess grid, and in this layout, the two sides of the dividend and the black play against each other, and the two sides have the same "strength", each holding sixteen pieces, a total of thirty-two pieces in the whole world. Among them, these pieces are: soldiers, artillery, vehicles, horses, phases, soldiers, and generals.
These different "classes" have their own unique abilities. Elephants walking in the field, horses walking in the day, cannons across the mountain, cars everywhere, these rules are the most well-known, after all, these four "classes of soldiers" in chess are the most lethal, but the other "arms" are decorations?
It is true that the combat effectiveness of the four types of soldiers in chess, "car, horse, elephant, and cannon", is extraordinary, but the soldiers and generals are also not ordinary.
When a soldier crosses the "chasm", it is said that it is better than half a car, and it runs rampant left and right without hindrance. So what will he say, isn't he just a high-ranking member of the military?
In fact, there is a saying in chess - the general can not imagine, want to see there will be a death. Such a rule seems to be nonsensical, but it is actually an example. Although this rule is not clearly stipulated, it is unanimously recognized in people's hearts.
With one move, you can lock the chess game, and everyone will be careful with such a move to prevent losing every game. Few people know where such a powerful trick came from, let alone the story. The general Shuai could not imagine, from the "Chu-Han struggle for hegemony", out of the relationship between Xiang Yu and Liu Bang.
At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty's state was constantly wavering, and due to the tyranny and fainting of Qin II, large-scale uprisings of different scales broke out in various parts of the Qin Dynasty.
Proposed by Chen Sheng Wu Guang, "The prince will have a kind of Hu? For a time, it became the slogan of the rebel army.
Wave after wave, wave after wave, so the Qin Dynasty died in the general trend of the world, the once great dynasty was reduced to a text in history, and Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, who were the main force to destroy Qin, became the most dazzling new stars of imperial power at that time.
Compared with Xiang Yu, Liu Bang's power and strength were relatively weak, so Xiang Yu naturally became the first to inherit the imperial power at that time. In order to show his power, Xiang Yu divided the various forces and princes one after another, but Xiang Yu, who was supposed to ascend the throne in Xianyang, had a sudden whim.
Xiang Yu once said, "If you don't return home in brocade, how is it different from the night walk of brocade?".
He insisted on returning to Jiangdong to claim the title of emperor, and Xiang Yu also lost his imperial power because of this decision. Although Liu Bang's status was lower than That of Xiang Yu, Liu Bang's ambitions were no less than Xiang Yu's.
Liu Bang, who can speak well, has gained the followers of a large number of capable people by virtue of his eloquence and tolerance, and among the people who followEd Liu Bang, there are only famous generals Han Xin and Fan Duo, and the famous people are even more envious - Zhang Liang and Xiao He. Liu Bang alone was enough to dominate the world.
What's more, Liu Bang's subordinates are not only these characters, and these characters naturally do not want Liu Bang to be only the second in command, and there are no small ambitions between the lord and the subject, so the main minister hit it off and said the opposite. Liu Bang, on the pretext of avenging The Righteous Emperor, issued a crusade slogan to Xiang Yu, and the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony began.
In the second year of the Han Dynasty (205 AD), Liu Bang contacted various princes to avenge the Yi Emperor, during which Liu Bang secretly levied Chen Cang's expropriation power, and slowly became a strength comparable to Xiang Yu in the shadows, so Liu Bang successfully gathered hundreds of thousands of princes to unite the army.
This time the coalition is unstoppable, and every battle along the way is a big victory. Under the influence of victory, Liu Bang's army was complacent, but it was not known that the reason why they could successfully attack the city was that Xiang Yu was not involved.
At that time, Xiang Yu was in the "quagmire" of the State of Qi, and it was difficult for him to get out.
The good times of Liu Bang's army were not long, and after Xiang Yu learned that Pengcheng had been captured, Xiang Yu led 30,000 elite troops and went south to attack the combined forces of Liu Bang's princes. At this time, Liu Bang's army was immersed in victory and did not notice Xiang Yu's menacing force. With no intention, Xiang Yu defeated Liu Bang's army of hundreds of thousands with 30,000 troops.
In the Battle of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu took Liu Bang's army with several times lower than the other side, and nearly 100,000 Han troops died in the Battle of Pengcheng, since then Xiang Yu's reputation as king of Chu has become even greater, and the image of invincible victory has caused the confidence of Liu Bang's coalition army to collapse.
War begins, so does the chessboard.
The general will not be seen
Since Xiang Yu and Liu Bang started the war, the cries for them everywhere have been like functional phase lines, sometimes high and sometimes low. Liu Bang relied on his courtiers to subordinate a large number of capable people to his account, and Han Xin, who was only a nobody at the time, stood out again and again in the Chu-Han struggle.
Liu Bang contained Xiang Yu's main forces, and Han Xin recaptured the various princes in the north, capturing Wei, replacing, breaking Zhao, threatening Yan, advancing to Qi in the east, and destroying Chu in the south. At first, the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony was a great victory for Xiang Yu, but in the middle and late period, Liu Bang relied on a large number of people to turn the situation around.
Time flew by, and when the time reached the late stage of the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony, the struggle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu also reached a climax, and the general Shuai could not be seen in the late stage of the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony.
In the third year of the Han Dynasty (204), Liu Bang and Xiang Yu broke out into the Battle of Chenggao, and in the face of the menacing Xiang Yu, Liu Bang chose to shrink.
Cheng Gao appeared in front of Xiang Yu in a defensive posture, Liu Bang's defensive lineup was obviously Xiang Yu's disgusted way of fighting, so Liu Bang also sent people to shout in front of the battle every day, and insulted Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu has a strong personality and likes to go straight in.
Therefore, he was really disdainful of Liu Bang's disgusting way, so he proposed "one-on-one single challenge", and it was still a "life and death fight". However, Liu Bang obviously could not have singled out Xiang Yu, who was famous for his martial prowess, so no matter how Much Xiang Yu stimulated Liu Bang, Liu Bang looked indifferent.
Even when Xiang Yu used Liu Bang's family as a threat, Liu Bang used his own eloquence to make Xiang Yu unable to attack. Liu Bang's slippery head was undoubtedly revealed in Chenggao, and when he was burned in anger and could not express it, Xiang Yu chose to use his force to leave Liu Bang with an unforgettable memory.
Only to see that at that time, Xiang Yu drew out the arrow and put it on the bow and arrow that required great force to pull it open, and then opened the bow and took off his hand, and the arrow shot straight at Liu Bang at a rapid speed.
Without defense, Liu Bang was shot in the chest and returned to the tent. Fortunately, Liu Bang's life was hard and he was not killed by Xiang Yu's arrow.
Xiang Yu's arrow thus became an unseen case for a chess general. After this battle, Liu Bang was more cautious and careful, and finally in the fifth year of the Han Dynasty (202 AD), Liu Bang surrounded and killed Xiang Yu with the Battle of Xiaxia, laying the foundation of the Han Dynasty.
brief summary
The profundity and charm of chess still make people yearn for it, it is not only the essence of China, but also a witness to the development of Chinese history, chess has witnessed a lot, and it will continue to be in the future.
