The following is the basic introduction of Xiang Yu's biography that I carefully arranged for you. I hope you like it.

Introduction to this subject Xiang Yu

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 replace him! ? Xiang Liang quickly covered his mouth and said? Don't talk nonsense, copy everything from door to 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.

The Rise of Chu Army under the Discipline of Xiang Yu

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 west of the great river has all rebelled, and this is also the time when God will destroy the Qin Dynasty. It is said that one step ahead can control others, and one step behind will be controlled. I want to rise up against Qin, and let you and Huan Chu command the army. ? At that time, Huan Chu was fleeing in the grass. Xiang Liang said? Huan Chu is on the run, others don't know his whereabouts, only Ji Xiang knows. ? So Xiang Liang went out and told Xiang Yu to wait outside with a sword. Then, he came in, sat next to the county magistrate Yin Tong 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. Stay for a while, Xiang Liang to Ji Xiang blinked and said? We're ready to move! ? 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 he came to Xiang Liang to complain. Xiang Liang said? A few days ago, a family held a funeral. I asked you to do something, but you didn't do it, so I can't hire you. ? 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. When Zhao Ping heard that Chen was defeated and that Chi was coming, he crossed the river under the pretext of Chen's command and worshipped Xiang Liang as the pillar of the king of Chu. Zhaoping said:? The land of Jiangdong has been pacified, so hurry up and 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 of any dignitaries in your Chen family. Now that you suddenly have such a big reputation, I'm afraid it's not a good omen. In my opinion, it's best to belong to someone. If you succeed, you can be blocked. If you fail, it's easy to escape, because then you won't be the one who is noticed by the world. ? Chen Ying listened to her mother's words and dared not be king. He said to the officer: Xiang is a generation of famous soldiers and a noble family of Chu. 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 obeyed him and turned it into Xiang Liang's. Xiang Liang crossed the Huaihe River and moved northward. And Pu also led the troops to Xiang Liang. In this way, Xiang Liang * * * with 670000 people, stationed in the next pi (p: and, batch).

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 the men. Wang Chen uprising first, the battle is not going well. I have no idea where he is now. Now Qin Jia betrayed Wang Chen and made Ju Jing king of Chu, which was a big mistake. ? So he marched on 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.

Juzhi (ch? O, Fan Zeng, a 70-year-old man, is always at home and likes to think about strange plans. 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; So Chunonggang said? Even if there are only three Chu States left, it must be Chu State that perished in the State of Qin, right? . 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 in Jiangdong, so many Chu soldiers are flying around like bees, vying to join you. Just because Xiang has been a general of Chu for generations, he will be able to re-establish the descendants of Chu as kings. ? Xiang Liang felt that 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 is a pillar country of Chu, in Xu Tai (xūy? , virtual appropriate). Xiang Liang's name is Wu Xinjun.

A few months later, Xiang Liang led his troops to attack (gāngfǔ incarnation, now), and took the troops of Qi Jiang and Tsukasa Tsuyoshi Che (jū, Ju) to save Dong, where he defeated Qin Jun .. Tian Rong immediately led his troops back to Qi, driving away the holiday of Qi Wang. 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 Rong named Shi Tian, the son of Tian Yan, 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. Said: Chu killed Tian fake, Zhao killed Tian Jiao and Tian Tian, and I sent troops. ? Xiang Liang said? Tian is an ally of our Wang Fa. I have no choice but to follow me. I don't have the heart 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 exhorted Xiang Liang to say? After winning the battle, the generals will be proud and the foot soldiers will be lazy. Such an army is doomed to defeat. Now the foot soldiers are a little lazy, and their anger is increasing day by day. I'm worried about you! ? Xiang Liang didn't listen, but sent Yi Song to see Qi. On the way, I met Gao Xian, the envoy of Qi, and asked, Are you going to see Wu Xinjun? Answer: Really? Yi Song said? In my opinion, Wu Xinjun's army is doomed to failure. If you walk slowly, you can avoid physical 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 all the soldiers are 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 Dang (D? Ng, Dang) county.

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 the Battle of Dingtao, the Chu army was afraid of the King of Chu, and went from Xutai to Pengcheng to merge the armies of Xiang Yu and Lv Chen, and took 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.

Earlier, I met Gao, the messenger of Chu State, on the road. He asked to see the King of Chu, and said, "Yi Song had guessed that Wu Xinjun's army would surely 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 the highest. 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 quickly lead the troops across the Yellow River. Chu attacked from the outside, Zhao met from the inside, and it is certain that Qin Jun will 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 on a military account and make strategic decisions, you can't compare with me, Yi Song. ? So he ordered the whole army: fierce as a tiger, disobedient as a sheep, greedy as a wolf, stubborn and disobedient, all beheaded. ? 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 stayed for a long time and didn't move forward. 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. He actually prepared a banquet and invited guests to the meeting. Instead of crossing the river to get food from Zhao, he attacked Qin with Zhao Heli, but said? Take advantage of Qin Jun's 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. The ranks in China have been paid to the last person, and the national security is at stake. However, he did not show sympathy for the soldiers in the world, but sent his son to Qi for personal gain. This time, he is not a truly moral minister. ? Xiang Yu went to see Shang in the morning, cut off his head in the army account and came out to order the whole army. 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, saying that it was the Xiang family who helped Chu get up first. Now it is the minister who destroyed the rebellion. ? So everyone asked Xiang Yu to be the 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. There is no way, so we have to let Xiang Yu take the lead. Dangyang Army and Pu belong to Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu burned his bridges in this subject.
