"The prince will be in phase, Ning has a kind of hu." This soul torture inspired the poor people to have a sense of struggle and to fight unremittingly against the violent Qin, but as the first large-scale "peasant uprising" in Chinese history, it was suppressed by the Qin army in just six months.
Chen Sheng prematurely claimed the throne
When Zhu Yuanzhang rebelled against the Yuan army, he adopted Li Shanchang's strategy of building high walls, accumulating grain, and slowly claiming the title of king. As a result, he could gradually accumulate strength, and Chen Sheng established himself as king at the beginning of the uprising, and then established the "Zhang Chu regime". Although there were also uprisings in other parts of the Central Plains at that time, Chen Sheng became the first target of annihilation of the Qin army. Chen Sheng's title of king also played an exemplary role, and his subordinates also followed suit, so that later some of his generals supported the army to respect themselves and divide the king, causing the rebel army to disperse and difficult to gather, and when the Qin army suppressed, they refused to help each other, resulting in the rebel army being broken one by one.
Contrary to the purpose of the uprising
When Chen Sheng rebelled, he said, "Gou is rich and noble, and he should not forget it." "Chen Sheng was called the queen, with the success of the early battle, slowly revealed his true colors, Chen Sheng was born in the grass and got up at the end, never enjoyed the glory and wealth, and now in a high position, it is inevitable to be tempted by the beauty of Ganlin, thus losing his mind. There is such a story. Earlier, a fellow villager who had farmed with Chen Sheng for the landlord heard that he had become a king, and specially came to Chen County from his hometown in Dengfengyang City to find him, knocking on the door for half a day and no one took care of him. It wasn't until Chen Sheng went out and blocked the road and called out his nickname that he was summoned and drove back to the palace together. Because he was Chen Sheng's former friend, he came in and out more casually, and sometimes he could not help but talk about some old things about Chen Sheng in his hometown. Soon someone said to Chen Sheng: "Your guests are ignorant and ignorant, and they are talking nonsense, which is detrimental to your majesty." Chen Sheng was so ashamed that he actually killed his "vain" partner. At that time, the saying "be rich and noble, do not forget each other" has become an empty phrase.
No attention is paid to foreign ministers
Chen Sheng, the queen, was very jealous of her subordinates, afraid that they had rebellious hearts, and used their own confidants, and these people did not all have the talent of generals, and foreign ministers were not valued in the rebel army. It also connived at the terrorism of his subordinates, causing the people to complain. For example, Chen Sheng sent Zhou Wen to lead an army to attack Hangu and attack Xianyang directly, but this Zhou Wen was only a Yin and Yang family, lacking the talent of a general, and was eventually defeated by the militia led by Zhang Handan.
