Speaking of Xiang Yu, I believe everyone knows that he is a great hero, if it were not for his excessive self-confidence and soft heart, perhaps there would be nothing to do with Liu Bang. Not only that, Xiang Yu is also a rare Hercules in ancient Chinese history, able to lift a 700-kilogram ding alone. Let's tell the story of Xiang Yu in detail!
Born in a family of martial artists, he learned martial arts from an early age
According to the records in the "Records of History" written by Sima Qian, Xiang Yu's ancestors were military generals, and their achievements were not low. Therefore, it can be said that Xiang Yu was born into a family of martial artists, and since he was a child, he has followed the elders of the family to learn martial arts and practiced a good martial art. It may be influenced by the living environment, or it may be that he has a belligerent gene.
When he was young, the elders of the family tried to make him literate, but he was completely uninterested, and he did not listen to the knowledge taught by the elders, and the family gave up the idea. However, a family like them could not let him learn nothing, so later the elders of the family let him learn the sword technique, and Xiang Yu was not only not unhappy about this, but also very excited.
Physically strong, powerful
Since then, Xiang Yu has begun to practice martial arts and sword techniques with the elders of the family. In the process, Xiang Yu had never been lazy, so his body was getting stronger and stronger, and his strength was getting bigger and bigger. So, how can we know that his strength is getting stronger? Let's talk about it!
According to Xiang Yu's own "Song of the Fallen", he can see that he himself is very clear about his own strength. In Sima Qian's "Records of History", the fact that Xiang Yu's power is as great as an ox is also fully affirmed. Moreover, there is a story about Xiang Yu's great strength, and there is still a story in history.
The strength is incomparable, and it can lift 700 pounds of ding with one hand
This story is an intuitive description of Xiang Yu's strength is very large, able to lift 700 pounds of Ding with one hand without help, and even left an idiom allusion of "strength can carry Ding". So why did Xiang Yu go to lift the Ding? What is the process of lifting the crown? Let's tell the story of Xiang Yujuding in detail!
There are two theories about the specific process of Xiang Yu's lifting. One of them is that Xiang Yu began to fight against Qin in order to attract more talents to serve himself, so he ran in many directions. In the process, one person proposed that if he could lift a jackhammer that the four strong men could not shake in public, they would submit to Xiang Yu.
Out of confidence in his own strength, Xiang Yu agreed to this condition. After Xiang Yu was ready, he grabbed the Ding foot and directly lifted the Ding, and in order to be more convincing, he also lifted it three times in a row. When the man saw it, he was convinced of Xiang Yu's strength and agreed to follow Xiang Yu. There is also a saying that Xiang Yu Juding won Yu Ji for him.
Although the experts later explained that the 700-kilogram Ding that Xiang Yu lifted at that time was only equivalent to about 200 kilograms now, Xiang Yu's strength should not be underestimated. I have to say that Xiang Yu's own strength is indeed worthy of admiration.
