In the last year of the Qin Dynasty, the Chu and Han dynasties competed for dominance, and the Western Chu side, which originally had the advantage, eventually lost to the talented Han.
Some people say that the defeat of Western Chu is inevitable, although Xiang Yu has a counselor Fan Zeng, but they are united in one heart and one mind, and in the end they only part ways. Although Xiang Yu had many generals under him, he was also loyal to him, but the Han Emperor Liu Bang's men could bring more, resulting in the final solution being that they were all killed in battle.
Embattled, I believe that everyone is no stranger, it is this battle that ended the rule of Western Chu, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, also died in this battle. This battle completed three generals, and it was the three of them who cooperated with Liu Bang to kill Xiang Yu!
Peng Yue
Today we will talk about one of them: Liang Wang Peng Yue!
Peng Yue, Zi Zhong, was a founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, he raised an army in Wei to revolt, and later led his troops to submit to Liu Bang, worshiped Wei Xiangguo, feudal chenghou, assisted Liu Bang in winning the Chu-Han war, and together with Han Xin and Yingbu, he was called the three famous generals of the early Han Dynasty. After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, he was crowned king of Liang and the capital was set at Dingtao.
Peng Yue often fished in the juye lake and ganged up with a gang of robbers. After Chen Sheng and Xiang Liang rose up, they were educated, and as a result, they gathered more than a hundred people and defected to Chen Sheng and Xiang Liang.
Later, Chen Sheng was destroyed, Peng Yue wandered around, and he was originally living in an uncertain place, but he was eventually subdued by Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, and became one of his generals. Peng Yue's life has experienced dozens of battles, large and small, but he is still best known for being embattled!
In the Chu-Han War, it was precisely because he led his troops to carry out guerrilla warfare in the rear of the Chu army, to attack the supply of the Chu state, and to use the tactics of the enemy advancing and retreating, and the enemy retreating and chasing after us, so that Xiang Yu was tired of fighting on both sides, so that the food and equipment of the Chu army could not be supplied, and also gave the front-line Han army the opportunity not to be annihilated by Xiang Yu.
