That is Xiang Yu.
“The world is overwhelming with all our strength, but the times are unfavorable and the talents will not fade away. There is nothing we can do if the talents are not dying, but there is nothing we can do if we are worried.”
Xiang Ji (232 BC- 202 BC), courtesy name Yu (pay special attention to Xiang Yu's original name, courtesy name Yu), from Xiaxiang (now Suqian, Jiangsu Province). The grandson of Xiang Yan, the famous general of Chu State, the leader of the ancient Chinese uprising, a famous military strategist, and the strongest general in Chinese history! A representative figure of the "brave war" school of Chinese military thought. He is known as the Overlord of Western Chu. After the fall of Chu, the Xiang family was brutally massacred. He and his younger brother Xiang Zhuang followed their uncle Xiang Liang into exile in Wuzhong (today's Huzhou, Zhejiang). When he was young, Xiang Liang once asked someone to teach him calligraphy and poetry, but he got tired of it after a while. Later Liang asked someone to teach him martial arts, but he stopped learning after a while. Liang was furious! Ji said: "Studying literature is only about remembering names; learning martial arts is just about being able to defeat a hundred with one person; if you want to learn literature, you can only learn how to defeat ten thousand people!" So Liang taught him the art of war. But after learning for a while, he was unwilling to learn anymore, so Liang had no choice but to follow him and ignore him. He was eight feet tall, could carry a tripod (the origin of the term "overlord holding a tripod"), and had the power to overwhelm tens of thousands of people. He had extremely lofty ambitions when he was young. Once when Qin Shihuang was on a patrol crossing Zhejiang (today's Qiantang River), Xiang Yu saw the majesty of his chariots and horses, and blurted out: "He can replace him (I can replace him)." In the first year of Qin II (209 BC), Chen Sheng , Wu Guang raised his arms in Daze Township and rose up (i.e., the Daze Township Uprising). Xiang Yu followed his uncle Xiang Liang in assassinating the prefect Yin Tong in Wuzhong and raised his troops to respond. In this battle, Xiang Yu killed nearly a hundred of Yin Tong's guards alone, showing his unparalleled power for the first time. Martial arts! The 24-year-old Xiang Yu was pushed onto the stage of history by the storm of people's uprising.
Xiang Yu, a descendant of the famous general of Chu, led an uprising with eight thousand soldiers. He divided his forces into two groups and captured Xianyang to wipe out the Qin State. Xiang Yu wanted to unify the country and fought decisively with Peigong Liu Bang for five years. In the end, he did not listen to his father Fan Zeng's words. Lishan accidentally hit Han Xin's formation, the entire Chu army was destroyed, and Xiang Yu committed suicide in Wujiang River.
The life of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Chu, was born in troubled times, and he rose up with his camera; he bravely championed the three armies and dominated the situation; he led his troops northward to fight for the Central Plains, aspired to Xianyang, split the soil and became king, but in the end he became a traitor due to his own weakness in character. That was the tragedy of his life. With the bloody sword at the Wujiang River crossing, Xiang Yu's tragic fate came to a regrettable end. Tragic history hides the fate of tragic characters. The tragedy of Xiang Yu's character is confirmed by the historical facts of the Chu-Han War.
Standing on the long river of history. Facing the tragedy of Xiang Yu’s life, sighing that “I still miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross the Yangtze River” is not the positive attitude we should have; we should in the future life process In the process, we constantly temper our will, temper our character repeatedly, grasp the boat of our destiny, and better sail towards the ideal shore of the ocean of life. Xiang Ji (232 BC - 202 BC), courtesy name Yu, was born in Xiaxiang (now Suqian, Jiangsu Province).

The 24-year-old Xiang Yu was pushed onto the stage of history by the storm of people's uprising. Vehicle: Kiyun Wuzui Ma, weapon: Tianlong City Breaking Halberd. Speaking of the Qin Dynasty, people always think of the Qin Dynasty's majestic army first. Its spirit of swallowing up the world like a tiger and sweeping across the world has made countless people with lofty ideals dream and praise it for thousands of years! The rise of Qin was undoubtedly driven by the craziness of its inner war machine, and its millions of iron armies on the outside, conquering all directions and conquering an unprecedented world. However, in just fifteen years, the great Qin Dynasty was destroyed in one fell swoop. It was a period of rapid prosperity and rapid defeat. The building of the Qin Dynasty collapsed quickly, and there were various internal and external problems. However, the heaviest blow to the Qin Dynasty, which made the powerful Qin Dynasty unable to start its war, was undoubtedly Xiang Yu's genius - the Battle of Julu. ? ? Talking about ancient Chinese wars, the most talked about are the classic battles in which fewer people win more, such as the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Jingxing, the Battle of Kunyang, the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Feishui, etc. Another classic war between the Chu and Han Dynasties in which a small number defeated a large number was often ignored by most people, resulting in very few researchers. The reason is only in the eye of the beholder. But this war is one that cannot be ignored and should have a place in the history of Chinese wars and even the history of world wars. It is - the Battle of Pengcheng.
?The Battle of Pengcheng is a model of China's large-scale independent use of cavalry to annihilate infantry. Since it is a sneak attack, it is mainly used for the cavalry to march into the camp, break up, and drive away the enemy, causing chaos and causing the cavalry to charge independently for the first time on a large scale. Obviously the results were brilliant, and it was a great achievement for the Chinese cavalry. ? Studying the causes and consequences of the Battle of Pengcheng, you have to admire Xiang Yu's military genius and strategic innovation! The reason why Xiang Yu achieved unprecedented victory in the world lies in: 1. Foresight and bold layout before the war; 2. The confusing concealment and noisy effect of the surprise attack; 3. Outstanding battlefield insight and patience; 4. Tactical Revolution and technological innovation - breaking the cauldron and sinking all boats, one is worth ten? In 208 BC, Qin general Zhang Han commanded the main force of the Qin army to encircle Julu, and Xiang Yu led his troops to rescue him. In order to show his determination to risk his life and survive, Xiang Yu led all the troops across the Zhang River. "All the ships were sunk, the cauldrons were broken, the huts were burned, and the huts were burned, and they held only three days of rations to show that the soldiers were bound to die and none of them would return the favor." Xiang Yu led his army to cut off the Qin army's food routes and fought nine fierce battles with the Qin army. "The Chu soldiers were all equal to ten." Qin lost troops and generals, and Xiang Yu took advantage of the victory to pursue him, forcing Zhang Han and his remaining troops to surrender. ? Xiangzhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong ? After the Qin Dynasty was overthrown, Xiang Yu held a banquet to "entertain" the hero Han Gaozu in Hongmen (near today's Lintong, Shaanxi). At the banquet, Xiang Yu's adviser, Yafu Fan Zeng, suggested several times that Xiang Yu take the opportunity to kill Han Gaozu to eliminate future troubles, but Xiang Yu ignored it because he couldn't bear it. Therefore, Fan Zeng asked Xiang Zhuang to perform sword dancing for fun, hoping to take the opportunity to assassinate Han Gaozu. Seeing the urgency of the situation, Zhang Liang, the counselor of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, went out to summon Fan Kuai and said, "Now that Xiang Zhuang draws his sword and dances, his intention is always with Pei Gong." So Fan Kuai broke into the banquet hall with his sword and shouted at Xiang Yu for not keeping his faith. Impressed by Fan Kuai's heroic spirit, he drank with him. Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty used an excuse to escape from danger. ? "I still miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross the Yangtze River." The female poet recalled the Chu tyrant named Xiang Yu, followed Xiang Yu's spirit and integrity, and hated the political affairs of the Song Dynasty, which were peaceful and peaceful. It is said that taking a step back, the sea and the sky are vast, just a river away, but it is the boundary between life and death. In just one thought, it is the difference between life and death. Xiang Yu, in order to live up to his reputation as a hero, live up to his seven-foot-long body, and live up to the trust of his elders in Jiangdong, died in retribution. "Refuse"! Not "can't", not "don't want to", not "unwilling", not "won't go". The charm of a "unwilling" pen is better than the miraculous craftsmanship, and higher than the creation of heaven and earth. A kind of heroic spirit of "can be killed but not humiliated", "will not be afraid of death but will not be humiliated", stains the surface of the paper and penetrates the back of the paper. It’s so amazing that there are no words left! ? When Yu Ji crosses the sword, a flower of life blooms into a sharp blue blade. I saw bright red blood flowing across my snow-white neck. The strong man hides his face, and Wu Zui screams sadly. ? The chief of the Wujiang Pavilion wanted to ferry him east, and said that there were still 100,000 people in Chu, enough to make a comeback. Xiang Yu said with a smile: "If Heaven destroys me, how can I cross the river? I crossed the river to the west with eight thousand people from Jiangdong, but now no one has returned. Even though my father and brother from the east of the Yangtze took pity on me, they lorded over me. How can I see them with their faces! Even if they don't "I know that I am riding this horse for five years, so I can give it to you." Xiang Yu is frank, open-minded, honest, honest and kind. Incisively and vividly. He would rather die generously and tragically than live in humiliation and shame. Just as Zheng Banqiao sighed: "Why should the Prime Minister be the emperor? He can only fight quickly like never before." Xiang Yu is both a victorious warrior and a defeated hero; Generous and forthright. It is both cruel and kind-hearted; it is both willful and credulous; it is both impetuous and indecisive; there are flowers of affection blooming on the heroic and strong mountains; there are a few narrow and stagnant ripples in the open-minded and generous ocean. A real person should be the unity of multiple personality factors. Xiang Yu is undoubtedly an immortal monument in the history of literature. It will stand firmly in the long river of history. Although it has been eroded and washed away for thousands of years, it will still last forever and have endless charm. ? We cannot evaluate Xiang Yu's merits and demerits solely by whether he has achieved imperial status, but by his historical achievements. Although Xiang Yu did not achieve imperial status, he followed the wishes of the people and the trend of historical development and overthrew the rule of Qin. He also committed suicide and ended the civil war, allowing Han to unify the country. This objectively cannot but be said to be a great contributor to the advancement of history. Xiang Yu is a monument made of gold, which will always stand on the chariot of history for future generations to admire.
