Translation of excerpts from Xiang Yu's biography

Xiang Yu killed Yi Song, the champion of Qing Zi, and his fame shocked the State of Chu. His fame spread all over the governors. Xiang Yu sent Dangyang Jun and General Pu to lead 20,000 people to cross the Zhanghe River to save the giant deer. The two men won a small victory. Zhao Jiang Chen Yu invited Xiang Yu to send more troops. Xiang Yu led all the soldiers across the Zhanghe River. After the soldiers crossed the river, they broke all the boats and sank into the water. Break the pot for cooking and the crock for steaming rice; Burn all the houses; Keep three days' food for the soldiers to see. If you can't beat it, you will die, and there is no possibility of retreat. No foot soldier has the heart to return.

So the army arrived, surrounded Wang Li, Chu Jun fought bravely, won nine out of nine, broke the tunnel in Qin Jun, broke Qin Jun, killed General Su Jiao of Qin, and captured Wang Li alive; He idled around and refused to surrender, and as a result, he was burned to death. In this great war, Chu soldiers were braver than princes. The vassal army came to save Zhao, and the soldiers went to Julu, and built more than a dozen camps, but they dared not send troops. When Xiang Yu's soldiers attacked Qin Jun, all the governors and generals hid behind the fence to watch. At this time, the soldiers of Chu were brave and fearless, and one was ten; When Chu soldiers were fighting, they shouted and shouted. Even if the vassal army looked on the wall, everyone was terrified.

So Xiang Yu summoned the vassals after Qin Jun's defeat, and the vassals would enter Yuanmen, kneeling on the ground, afraid to look up! As a result, Xiang Yu became a vassal general, and all the vassal armies belonged to Xiang Yu's subordinates.
