Translation of Xiang Yu's Biography

The next photo is Ji Xiang, with a feather. He was 24 years old when the uprising began. Ji Xiang's uncle's name is Xiang Liang, and Xiang Liang's father's name is Xiang Yan. He was a general of Chu who was killed by Wang Jian, a general of Qin. Xiang's family was General Chu, and he was sealed in Xiang's land, so his surname was Xiang.

When Ji Xiang was a child, he learned to write and read, but he stopped studying without academic achievements. He learned fencing again, but he didn't succeed. Xiang Liang was very angry with him. Ji Xiang said: "Writing can be used to remember names; Fencing can only deal with one person, and it is not worth learning. I want to learn skills that can rival ten thousand people. " So Xiang Liang taught Ji Xiang the art of war. Ji Xiang was very happy, but he only knew a little about Sun Tzu's Art of War and refused to study it to the end. Xiang Liang was arrested and imprisoned by Liyang County for his involvement in crimes. He asked Cao Cao, a prisoner in Qixian County, to write a love letter to Sima Xin, a prisoner in Liyang County. For this reason, things are solved. Later, Xiang Liang killed another man. In order to avoid the enemy, he fled to Wuzhong with Ji Xiang. A talented scholar-bureaucrat in Wuzhong can't compare with Xiang Liang. Whenever there is a large-scale corvee or funeral in Wuzhong, Xiang Liang often acts as an organizer, secretly arranging guests and young people with the art of war to understand their talents. When Qin Shihuang visited Huiji County and crossed Zhejiang, Xiang Liang and Ji Xiang went to see it together. Ji Xiang said, "That man, I can take his place!" Xiang Liang quickly covered his mouth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you've copied it all over the door!" But Xiang Liang thought Ji Xiang was unusual. Ji Xiang is more than eight feet tall, strong and talented, and even the local young people in Wuzhong are in awe of him. In July of the first year of Qin Ershi (209 BC), Chen She and others revolted in Daze Township. In September of that year, the seal keeper in Huiji County said to Xiang Liang, "The people west of the Yangtze River have rebelled, and this is the time when the Qin Dynasty will be destroyed. I heard that you can control others first, and then you will be controlled. I'm going to attack the state of Qin and let you and Huan Chu lead the troops. " At that time, Huan Chu was fleeing in the grass. Xiang Liang said: "Huan Chu is at large, and others don't know his whereabouts, only Ji Xiang knows." So Xiang Liang went out and told Xiang Yu to wait outside with a knife. Then he came in and sat down with Yin Tong, the county magistrate, and said, "Please let me call Ji Xiang in and ask him to call Huan Chu." The sheriff said, "All right!" Xiang Liang called Ji Xiang in. After a while, Xiang Liang winked at Jixiang and said, "It's time to act!" So Ji Xiang drew his sword and beheaded the leader. Xiang Liang carried the head of the leader in his hand and hung the official seal of the leader. The leader's men were very frightened and fell into chaos. Ji Xiang killed one hundred people in a row. The whole county government was so scared that no one dared to get up. Xiang Liang summoned familiar strongmen and officials to explain to them that the uprising was anti-Qin, so he launched the Wu Zhongzhi uprising. Xiang Liang sent people to take over the counties under Huiji County, and * * * got 8,000 chosen men. Heroes were deployed in the county, and Hou and Sima were appointed as a captain respectively. One of them was not appointed and came to Xiang Liang to complain. Xiang Liang said, "A few days ago, a family held a funeral. I asked you to do one thing, and you didn't succeed, so you can't be appointed. " Everyone has great respect. Therefore, Xiang Liang took Ji Xiang as the lieutenant, guarding Huiji County and touring the counties. At this time, Guangling people asked Ping to patrol in order to occupy Guangling, but Guangling people did not surrender. Zhao Ping heard that Chen was defeated and retreated, and that Chi was coming soon, so he crossed the river on the pretext of Chen's command and worshipped Xiang Liang as the pillar of the king of Chu. Zhao Ping said, "The land of Jiangdong has been decided, so we can lead troops to attack Qin in the west." Xiang Liang led 8,000 people across the river to the west. Xiang Liang heard that Chen Ying had occupied Dongyang, so he sent an envoy to Dongyang, hoping to join hands with Chen Ying to move westward. Chen Ying, a former commander of Dongyang County, has always been honest and prudent in the county, and people all praise him as a loyal and honest person. Young people in Dongyang killed the county magistrate and gathered thousands of people. They wanted to elect a leader, but they didn't find a suitable candidate, so they came to invite Chen Ying. Chen ying refused, saying that she was incompetent, so they forced Chen ying to be the leader, and there were 20 thousand people in the county to follow. Those young people just want to make Chen Ying king. In order to distinguish themselves from other armies, they wrapped their heads in green towels to show that they were a new rebel. Chen Ying's mother said to Chen Ying, "Since I became the daughter-in-law of your Chen family, I have never heard that your Chen family has dignitaries. Now that you suddenly have such a big reputation, I'm afraid it's not a good omen. In my opinion, it is best to belong to whom. If you succeed, you can be sealed. If you fail, you will easily escape, because then you will not be the one who has attracted the attention of the world. " Chen Ying listened to her mother's words and dared not be king. He said to the generals, "Xiang is a generation of famous soldiers and a famous Chu family." Now, if we want the uprising to be a great event, we must become a family member. We rely on famous families, and the demise of the Qin Dynasty is certain. "So the army listened to him and turned the army into Xiang Liang's. Xiang Liang crossed the Huaihe River and moved northward. Qing Bu (Ying Bu) and General Pu also led troops to Xiang Liang. In this way, Xiang Liang * * * with 670 thousand people, stationed in the next Pi. At that time, Qin Jia had made Ju Jing king of Chu, stationed in the east of Pengcheng, trying to stop Xiang Liang from moving westward. Xiang Liang said to his men, "Wang Chen started the fight first, but the battle didn't go well. I have no idea where he is now. Now Qin Jia has betrayed King Chen and made Ju Jing King of Chu. This is a big violation. " So he went to attack Qin Jia. Qin Jiabing fled in defeat, and Xiang Liang led the troops to pursue Hu Ling. Qin Jia turned to Xiang Liang and played for a whole day. Qin Jia died and the troops surrendered. Ju Jing fled to Emperor Liang and died there. Xiang Liang received Qin Jia's army, stationed in Hu Ling, ready to lead the army to the western expedition of Qin. Zhang Han, commander-in-chief of the Qin Dynasty, led the army to Lixian County, and Xiang Liang sent Zhu Jishi and the feather fan army to fight. As a result, Yu Fanjun died in battle, Zhu Jishi was defeated and fled back to Hu Ling. Xiang Liang then led the troops into Xue County and killed Zhu Jishi. Before that, Xiang Liang had sent Xiang Yu to attack Xiangcheng, but Xiangcheng refused to surrender. Ji Xiang captured Xiangcheng, buried all the soldiers and civilians there alive, and then came back to report to Xiang Liang. Xiang Liang heard that he was really dead, so he called a party in Xue County to discuss important matters in the future. At this time, Pei Gong also rose in Pei County and was called to Xue County for a banquet. Fan Zeng, a 70-year-old resident, has always been an official at home, and likes to ponder over whimsy. He came to lobby Xiang Liang and said, "Chen Sheng should have failed. Qin destroyed six countries, and Chu was the most innocent. Since he was cheated into Qin and didn't return, the Chu people still sympathized with him; Therefore, Chu Nangong said,' Even if there are only three Chu States, it must be Chu State that perishes the State of Qin'. The present uprising in Chen Sheng is not to establish the descendants of Chu people, but to stand on one's own feet and become king, which will certainly not last long. Now that you are fighting in Jiangdong, so many Chu soldiers are flying around like bees, vying to join you. It is because Xiang has been a general of Chu for generations that he was able to re-establish the descendants of Chu as kings. Xiang Liang thought Fan Zeng's words made sense, so he went to the folk to look for Xiong Xin, the grandson of Chu Huaiwang. At this time, Xiong Xin was herding sheep. After Xiang Liang found him, in order to comply with the wishes of the Chu people, he imitated his grandfather's posthumous title and named him Chu Huaiwang. Chen Ying, a pillar country of Chu, helped his five counties to find Taiwan for Huaijian Capital. Xiang Liang's name is Wu Xinjun. A few months later, Xiang Liang led an army to attack Kangfu, and together with the troops of Qi Jiang and Tsukasa Tsuyoshi Che, he went to rescue Dong A, where he defeated Qin Jun. Tian Rong immediately led his troops back to Qi, driving away the holiday of the King of Qi. Fake escape to Chu. The fake cloak fled to Zhao. Tian Tian, Tianjiao's younger brother, turned out to be a general of Qi. He stayed in Zhao, afraid to return to Qi. Tian Rongli made Shi Tian, the son of Tian Yu, king of Qi. After Xiang Liang captured Qin Jun near Dong 'e, he pursued the defeated Qin army. He sent messengers many times to urge Qi to send troops, hoping to join hands with Qi in the Western Expedition. Tian Rong said, "Chu killed Tian Jia, Zhao killed Tianjiaohe, and then I sent troops." Xiang Liang said, "Tian is the king of our alliance. I have no choice but to follow me. I can't bear to kill him. " Zhao refused to kill Tianjiao and came to the field to make a deal with Qi. Qi always refused to send troops to help the Chu army. Xiang Liang sent Pei Gong and Xiang Yu to attack Yang and massacre the city. West to Puyang, defeated, Qin cleaned up the defeated troops and retreated to Puyang. Pei Gong and Xiang Yu went to play Dingtao. Dingtao was not laid, but he left Dingtao and marched westward, occupying the cities along the way to Qiu Yong, defeating Qin Jun and killing Li You. Then he turned and attacked Waihuang, but I didn't answer. Xiang Liang set out from Dong 'e to the west, and when he arrived in Dingtao, he had defeated Qin Jun twice, and Xiang Yu killed Li You again, so he looked down on Qin Jun even more and gradually showed his pride. Yi Song warned Xiang Liang, "If you win a battle, the generals will be proud and the soldiers will be lazy. Such an army is bound to fail. Now the foot soldiers are a little lazy, and Qin Jun is increasing day by day. I am worried about you! " Xiang Liang didn't listen, but sent Yi Song to see Qi. On the way, I met an emissary from the State of Qi and asked Gao Xian, "Are you going to see him?" Gao Duixian replied, "Yes." Yi Song said: "In my opinion, Wu Xinjun's army is doomed to failure. If you walk slowly, you can avoid death. If you walk fast, you will catch up with the disaster. " As expected, the Qin Dynasty mobilized all the troops to reinforce Zhang Han and attack the Chu army. Ding Tao, the Chu army was defeated, and Xiang Liang died. Pei Gong and Xiang Yu left Waihuang to attack Liu Chen, but Liu Chen insisted on not attacking. Pei Gong and Xiang Yu discussed together and said, "Now Xiang Liang's army has been defeated, and the foot soldiers are very afraid." Retreat eastward with Lv Chen's army. Lv Chen's army was stationed in the east of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu's army was stationed in the west of Pengcheng, and Pei Gong's army was stationed in the forefront.

After defeating Xiang Liang's army, Zhang Han thought that Chu's army was not worth worrying about, so he crossed the Yellow River to attack Zhao and defeated Zhao. At that time, Zhao Xie was the king and Chen Yu was the general. Zhang Er, as a country, escaped into Dalucheng. Zhang Han ordered the king to leave and surround the stag. His army was stationed in the south of Julu and built a tunnel with walls on both sides to transport food and grass to them. As a general of Zhao, he led tens of thousands of foot soldiers stationed in the north of Julu. This is the so-called Hebei army. After the defeat of Dingtao, the Chu army was afraid of the king of Chu, and went from Xu Tai to Pengcheng to merge the armies of Xiang Yu and Lv Chen and take command in person. Lv Chen was appointed Si Tuleideng, and Lv Chen's father Lv Qing was appointed Lingyin. Pei Gong was the prefect of the county, and Hou Wu 'an was our time. It turned out that Gao, an envoy of the State of Qi, who met on the road, was in the Chu army. He asked to see the King of Chu and said, "Yi Song had guessed that Wu Xinjun's army would fail, and a few days later, it was defeated. When the army is not fighting, it can see the signs of failure in advance, which can be called fighting. " Chu Huaiwang summoned Yi Song to discuss military affairs with him and appreciated him very much, so he was appointed as a general. Xiang Yu was the second general, Duke Lu, and Fan Zeng was the last general to save Zhao. All the other generals belonged to Yi Song, the so-called champion of Qing Zi. The troops arrived in Anyang and stayed for 46 days without moving forward. Xiang Yu said, "I heard that Qin Jun surrounded the King of Zhao in Dalucheng. We should lead the troops across the Yellow River as soon as possible. The Chu army attacked from outside, and the Zhao army met inside. Qin Jun will definitely be defeated. " Yi Song said, "I don't think so. A gadfly that can bite a big cow cannot hurt a small tick. Now that Qin has defeated Zhao, the foot soldiers will be tired; We can take advantage of their fatigue; If you can't win, you will lead the troops to beat drums and March westward, and you will certainly annihilate Qin Jun, so it is better to let Qin and Zhao Xian fight. I can't compare with you, Yi Song, if we fight bravely at the front with strong armor and sharp soldiers. If you sit in the military account and make strategic decisions, you can't compare with Yi Song. " So he ordered the whole army: "Anyone who is fierce as a tiger, rebellious as a sheep, greedy as a wolf and stubborn will be killed." He also sent his son, Song Xiang, to Qi as prime minister, personally delivering salt-free, banquet and conference guests. At that time, it was freezing, it rained cats and dogs, and the soldiers were hungry and cold. Xiang Yu said to the soldiers, "We all wanted Qi Xin to attack Qin Jun together, but he delayed for a long time. Now it is catching up with the famine, the people are poor, the soldiers eat taro mixed with beans, and the army has no food. When Liu Bei said that he did not lead troops across the river to get Zhao's grain, he joined forces with Zhao to attack Qin, saying, "Take advantage of fatigue. "With the strength of Qin State to attack the newly established Zhao State, the situation must be that Qin State takes Zhao State. When Zhao is captured, Qin will become stronger. At this time, what else can we talk about using the fatigue of Qin? Besides, our army has just lost the battle, and Chu Huaiwang is restless. All ranks in the territory have been paid to the general, and the national security is at a critical juncture. However, the generals in the world did not sympathize with the soldiers, but sent their sons to Qi for personal gain. This is not a real country of sages. " Xiang Yu went to see the general in the morning and beheaded him in the army. He came out and issued an order saying, "Heqi plotted against Chu, and the king of Chu ordered me to put him to death." At this time, the generals were all afraid of Xiang Yu, and no one dared to resist. They all said, "The first person who helped Chu stand up was a general's family. Now it is the general who has wiped out the traitors. " So everyone asked Xiang Yu to be the general's agent. Xiang Yu sent someone to chase Yi Song's son, chased him to the territory of Qi, and killed him. Xiang Yu sent Huan Chu to report to Wang Huai. In desperation, Xiang Yu was named general, and both Dangyang Army (Ying Bu) and General Pu belonged to Xiang Yu. At that time, Pei Gong's army was stationed on the dam and failed to join forces with Xiang Yu. Pei Gong's Sajima Cao Wushang sent someone to tell Xiang Yu: "Pei Gong wants to be king in Guanzhong and let Zi Ying, the king of Qin, have all the rare treasures." Xiang Yu was furious and said, "Prepare wine and food tomorrow, be kind to the soldiers and defeat Pei Gong's army for me!" At that time, Xiang Yu had 400 thousand troops stationed in Xinfeng Hongmen; Pei Gonggong has 100,000 soldiers stationed on the dam. Fan Zeng advised Xiang Yu: "When Pei Gong lived in Shandong, he was greedy for money and loved beautiful women. Now he's at the customs, he doesn't take property, and he hasn't been close to anyone. Look at this momentum, his ambition is not small. I let people see the clouds on his side, all in the shape of dragons and tigers and colorful. This is the spirit of the son of heaven. I hope you will attack quickly and don't miss the opportunity! "

Xiang Bo, Zuo Yin of Chu State, is Xiang Yu's uncle and has always been closely related to Sean of Liu Hou. At this moment, Sean was following Pei Gong, and Xiang Bo rode to Pei Gong's army overnight. He met Sean privately and told him everything, hoping that Sean would leave with him. Xiang Bo said, "I won't die with Pei Gong." Sean said, "I'm here to escort korean king Pei Gong. Pei Gong is in critical condition. If I run away, it will be unkind and unfair, so I must tell him. " Sean entered the chancellorsville and told Pei Gong what Xiang Bo had said. Pei Gong was greatly surprised and said, "What should I do?" Sean said, "Who gave you the idea to send troops to guard the pass?" Pei Gong said, "It was a humble man who advised me to say,' Keep the Hangu Pass and keep the vassal army out, and you can occupy the whole land of Qin State and be king.' So I listened to him. "Sean said," it is estimated that your troops can compete with Wang Xiang? Pei Gong was silent. After a while, he said, "Of course, we can't beat the enemy. What shall we do? Sean said, "Please let me tell Xiang Bo that Pei Gong dare not betray Wang Xiang." . "Pei Gong said," How do you have friendship with Xiang Bo? " Sean said, "Even in the Qin Dynasty, we had contacts. Xiang Bo killed a man, and I saved him from the capital punishment. The situation is critical now, but fortunately he came to tell me. " Pei Gong said, "Which of you is older?" Sean said, "He is older than me." Pei Gong said, "Please ask him to come in for me. I will serve him like a brother. " Sean went out to invite Xiang Bo. Xiang Bo came in to meet Pei Gong. Pei Gong raised his glass, toasted Xiang Bo's birthday and married his children. Pei Gong said, "After I entered Hangu Pass, even a little thing like Qiu Hao dared not move. I registered the accounts of the government and the people, sealed up all kinds of warehouses, and waited for the arrival of General Xiang. I sent generals to guard the pass in order to guard against the invasion of other thieves and unexpected changes. We look forward to the arrival of General Xiang day and night, how dare we rebel! I hope you can tell General Xiang in detail that I will never dare to be ungrateful. " Xiang Bo agreed and said to Pei Gong, "There is no need to apologize to Wang Xiang early tomorrow morning." Pei Gong said, "All right. So Xiang Bo left by night, returned to the barracks, and told Wang Xiang what Pei Gong said one by one. Then he said, "Pei Gong didn't break through Guanzhong first, how dare you enter Guanzhong? Now people have made great contributions and want to attack others. This is immoral. It is better to treat him well. " King Xiang agreed.

The next morning, Pei Gong went to see him with more than 100 followers, arrived in Hong Men, and apologized, saying, "I joined forces with the general to attack the State of Qin. The general fought in the north of the Yellow River, and I fought in the south of it. But I didn't expect to enter the customs first, break through the state of Qin, and see you here again. Now the villain said something bad, which caused a bad feeling between the general and me. " Wang Xiang said: "Your Sa Ji Ma Cao Wushang said it, otherwise how could I be like this!" On the same day, Wang Xiang asked Pei Gong to stay and drink together. Wang Xianghe and Xiang Bo sit in the east, while Yapu sits in the south. The father is Fan Zeng. Pei Gong sat facing north, and Sean accompanied him facing west. Fan Zeng winked at Wang Xiang a few times and held up the Yu Pei he was wearing. Wang Xiang just kept silent and didn't respond. Fan Zeng got up and went out, called Xiang Zhuang and said to him, "Your Majesty is too soft-hearted. Go in and propose a toast to celebrate his birthday, and then ask for a sword dance. Take the opportunity to assassinate Pei Gong and kill him at the table. Otherwise, you will all be prisoners. " Xiang Zhuang came in to propose a toast to celebrate his birthday. After the toast, he said to Wang Xiang, "The king and Pei Justice are drinking. There is nothing to entertain in the barracks. Let me dance the sword. " Wang Xiang said, "Very good." Xiang Zhuang drew his sword and danced, while Xiang Bo drew his sword and often protected Pei Gong with his body. Xiang Zhuang can't stab Pei Gong. Seeing this, Sean came to the military gate and found Fan Kuai. Fan Kuai asked, "How was today?" Sean said: "This is crucial! Now Xiangzhuang is dancing sword and has been playing Pei Gong's idea! " Fan Kuai said, "It's too dangerous to say that! Let me in, I want to live and die with Pei Gong! " Fan Kuai rushed into the military gate with a sword and shield. The guards who crossed the halberd gate tried to stop him from entering. Fan Kuai bent over the shield and crashed forward. The guards fell to the ground. Fan Kuai then broke into the military gate, lifted the curtain and stood facing west. He stared at the king with his eyes open, his hair stood on end and his eyes were cracked on both sides. King Xiang reached for his sword, straightened up and asked, "What does this guest do?" Sean said, "It's Fan Kuai, the guardian of Pei Gong." Wang Xiang said, "What a brave man! Give him a glass of wine! " One of his men handed him a large glass of wine. Fan Kuai thank humbly, stood up and drank. King Xiang said, "Give him a pig elbow!" One of my men gave me a whole pig elbow. Fan Kuai locked the shield on the ground, put the pig's elbow on it, drew his sword, cut it and ate it. Wang Xiang said, "What a brave man! Can you drink again? " Fan Kuai said, "I don't even care about death. What can I say no to a glass of wine? The king of Qin has the heart of a tiger and a wolf, killing countless people as if afraid of killing them all; Punishing people seems to be for fear of endless, and everyone in the world has betrayed him. Chu Huaiwang once agreed with the generals to' defeat Qin Jun first and let him be king in Guanzhong'. Now Pei Gong first defeated Qin Jun and entered Xianyang. He dare not even touch such a small property. He closed the palace of the king of Qin and retired to the overlord, waiting for your arrival. Specially send soldiers to guard Hangu Pass to prevent other thieves from breaking in and unexpected changes. Pei Gong worked so hard, but he didn't get Hou Feng's reward. Instead, you listened to the slanderers of the villains and tried to kill those who made meritorious deeds. This can only be the old path of the demise of the Qin Dynasty. I thought your majesty wouldn't take this way! The king was speechless and just said, "Sit down! Sit down! " Fan Kuai sat down next to Sean. After sitting for a while, Pei Gong went to the toilet and called Fan Kuai out.

After Pei Gong came out, Wang Xiang sent a man named Chen Ping to call Pei Gong. Pei Gong said to Fan Kuai, "Now that I'm out, what should I do to leave?" Fan Kuai said: "You don't have to care about small etiquette when you do big things, and you don't have to avoid small monsters when you talk about big ones. Now people are like knives and chopping boards, and we are like fish and meat. Why should we leave! " So a group of people left there and asked Sean to stay and apologize to Wang Xiang. Sean asked, "What gift did the king bring when he came?" Pei Gong said: "I brought a pair of white jade and prepared to give it to Wang Xiang; A pair of jade fights, ready to be dedicated to my father. It happened that they were too angry to offer. Please provide it for me. " Sean said, "Yes." At this time, Wang Xiang's troops were stationed in Hong Men, and Pei Gong's troops were stationed on the dam, 40 miles apart. Pei Gong left his chariots, horses and attendants and ran away. Fan Kuai, Xia Houying, Jin Qiang and Ji Xin, each armed with a knife, a gun and a shield, ran from the foot of Mount Li to Yang. Pei Gong said to Sean before he left, "This road is only 20 miles to our military camp. It is estimated that when you arrive at the military camp, you will go in. " Pei Gong and his party left Hong Men and took a shortcut back to the barracks. Sean went in to apologize and said, "Pei Gong doesn't drink much. He drinks too much, so he can't say goodbye to the king. Let liegeman Sean hold a pair of white jade and respectfully present it to your majesty. A pair of jade buckets are respectfully dedicated to the general. " Wang Xiang asked, "Where is Pei Gong?" Sean replied, "I heard that the king intended to blame him, so he left alone and has now returned to the barracks." Wang Xiang put Bai Bi on the seat; Father Ya took the jade bucket, threw it on the ground, pulled out his sword and smashed it, saying, "Alas! Xiang Zhuang this kind of boy can't * * seek great things with them, if you want to win the king of the world, you must repeatedly. Our class is going to be a prisoner! " Pei Gong returned to the army and killed Cao immediately. Wang Xiang's army camped in Gaixia (now Lingbi County, Anhui Province), and the serenade was endless. Han army and vassal soldiers surrounded him for several layers. Late at night, when he heard the Han army singing songs about Chu, Wang Xiang was very surprised and said, "Has Han completely acquired Chu?" ? Why are there so many people in Chu? King Xiang stayed up all night, drinking in his tent. There is a beauty and fame, he has always been favored by Wang Xiang; There is a famous horse that Wang Xiang has been riding. At this time, Wang Xiang couldn't help sighing generously, and said to himself, "Great strength can pull out mountains, and heroic spirit can overwhelm the world. If it's unlucky, I won't rush forward! "concubine, what can I do if I don't rush forward? How can I arrange you properly? " Wang Xiang sang several times, and the beautiful princess answered. Wang Xiang was in tears, and so were the waiters around him. No one can look up and see him.

Xiang mounted his horse, took more than 800 warriors, and fled south in deus ex at night. At dawn, the Han army realized and ordered the rider Guan Ying to lead five thousand cavalry to catch up. King Xiang crossed the Huaihe River, and only a hundred strong men could keep up. Wang Xiang got lost when he arrived at Yinling. He asked a farmer, and the farmer lied to him and said, "Turn left." Xiang Wang led his men to the left and got stuck in the swamp. So the Han soldiers caught up with them. Xiang Wang took the cavalry to the east and arrived in Dongcheng. There are only 28 people left at this time. Thousands of people were overtaken by Han cavalry. Wang Xiang himself estimated that he could not escape, so he said to his cavalry, "I have led the uprising for eight years, and I personally fought more than 70 wars. All the enemies I resisted were defeated, and all the enemies I attacked surrendered and never failed, so I was able to dominate the world. But now I'm finally stuck here. It's because God wants to destroy me, not because of the fight. Today, I must make up my mind to die I am willing to give you a good fight, and I will win three times. I want to break through the encirclement, slay the Han generals and cut down the military flag, so that you can know that God really wants to destroy me, and it is by no means the fault of combat. " So the cavalry was divided into four teams, facing four directions. The Han army surrounded them for several floors. King Xiang said to the cavalry, "I'll take a Han general for you!" " "He ordered knights from all directions to gallop down the mountain, and agreed to rush to the east of the mountain and meet in three places. So Wang Xiang let out a cry and rushed down, and the Han army fell down like grass and trees lodging in the wind. Wang Xiang killed a Han general. At this time, Chiquan Hou Yangxi rode to the Han army and chased Wang Xiang behind. Wang Xiang glared at him and scolded him. Hou Lian of Chiquan fell back several miles in fright. King Xiang and his cavalry met in three places. The Han army didn't know the whereabouts of Wang Xiang, so they divided into three ways and surrounded again. Wang Ce Ma Chong went up, beheaded another captain of the Han army, killed one hundred and eighty people, assembled cavalry, and lost only two people. King Xiang asked the cavalry, "How's it going?" The cavalry said respectfully, "just like the king said." "

At this time, Wang Xiang wanted to cross the Wujiang River eastward. Director of Wujiang Pavilion was waiting to dock there, and said to Wang Xiang, "Although Jiangdong is small, with a land of a thousand miles and hundreds of thousands of people, it is enough to be king. I hope your majesty will cross the river quickly. Now I'm the only boat here, and the Han army has arrived and can't get through. " King Xiang said with a smile, "God wants to destroy me, so why should I cross the Wujiang River?" ! Besides, eight thousand children from Jiangdong and I crossed the river to the west, and no one has come back now. Even if my friends in Jiangdong love me and make me king, how can I face them? Even if they don't say anything, don't I feel guilty in Ji Xiang? So he said to the curator, "I know you are a loyal elder. I have been riding this horse for five years and I am invincible. I used to walk thousands of miles every day. I can't bear to kill it for you. "Command the cavalry to dismount and walk, and engage the troops with short weapons. Ji Xiang alone killed hundreds of Han troops. Wang Xiang also suffered more than a dozen injuries. Wang Xiang looked back and saw the Han army riding Sima Lv Matong. He said, "Aren't you my old acquaintance?" At this moment, stable boy and Wang Xiang met, so he pointed to Wang Hao and said, "This is Wang Xiang. Wang Xiang said, "I heard that Hanwang offered a reward of 1,000 kilograms of gold for every family in the city to ask for my head. I will give you this benefit! " Say that finish, committed suicide. Wang Ming took Wang Xiang's head, and other cavalry trampled on each other for Wang Xiang's body. Dozens of people were killed because of the fight. Finally, the card shark rode Yang and Sima, and the card shark Lv Sheng and Yang Wu each got a limb. Five people get together and put their limbs together. Exactly. Therefore. Divide Xiang Yu's land into five pieces; It was named Zhongshui Hou, Wang Wei Yan Hou, Yang Wei Chiquan Hou, Yang Wei Hou and Lu Sheng Yang Hou.

When King Xiang died, all the Chu States surrendered to Hanwang, except Lu Xian. Hanwang led the soldiers in the world to slaughter Lucheng, but considering that they abided by etiquette and justice and died for the king, they showed their heads to the people of Lu, and the veteran of Lu surrendered. At the beginning, Chu Huaiwang named Ji Xiang the Duke of Lu. After his death, Duke of Lu finally surrendered. Therefore, according to the etiquette of the Duke of Lu, Xiang Wang was buried in Gucheng. Hanwang sent him to the funeral and cried for a while before leaving.

Hanwang did not kill all the branches of Xiang. Xiang Bo was named Sheyang Hou. Taohou, Hou, and Xuanwu Hou are all Xiang's, and Hanwang gave them the surname Liu.
