Historical Short Stories: Overlord of the West Chu

Xiang Yu is a famous god of war in history. He loves the world, but he loves concubines more. Unfortunately, Liu Bang finally defeated him. I have compiled a short historical story here, hoping to help everyone.

A brief historical story: the overlord of the place of Chu

Xiang Yu (232 BC? In 202 BC), he was born in Xia Xiang (now southwest of Suqian, Jiangsu Province) in Qin Dynasty, so his capital was Pengcheng (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province). He is the representative of China's military thought "Brave School", and he is as famous as Sun Wu and others. The ancients commented on it as "brave feather, unparalleled throughout the ages", and the word "overlord" originated from Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu is the grandson and son of Xiang Chao, a famous Chu star, Xiang Yan. Raised by his uncle Xiang Liang since childhood, the nobles of Chu took the land as their surname. Shortly after the uprising in Daze Township, Xiang Yu and his uncle Xiang Liang rose rapidly after killing the chief in Huiji County, and transferred troops against Qin.

In 224 BC, Wang Jian, a general of the Qin Dynasty, defeated the Chu army. The following year, Qin Jun attacked Qin 'an (now Suzhou, Anhui), and Xiang Yan, Xiang Yu's grandfather, was defeated. After the demise of Chu, Xiang Yu and his younger brother Xiang Zhuang went into exile with their uncle Xiang Liang in Wuxian (now Suzhou). When Xiang Yu was young, Xiang Liang taught him to read, but Xiang Yu soon got tired of it. Hou Liang taught him martial arts again and soon stopped learning it; Liang is furious! Ji said: "You can remember your name when you study, but you can only beat one person when you learn martial arts. If you want to learn, learn from 10 thousand people! " So Xiang Liang taught him the art of war. But he didn't want to learn after studying for a while, so Liang had to follow him and leave him alone. Xiang Yu was able to carry the tripod when he was young, and his ambition was great. When Qin Shihuang was the governor of Zhejiang, Xiang Yu saw that his horses and chariots were majestic and said to Xiang Liang, "You can replace them."

In 209 BC, Chen Sheng and Guangwu raised their weapons in osawa. Xiang Yu responded with the assassination of Wuzhong satrap Yin Tong by his uncle Xiang Liang. Xiang Liang holding the head of the leader, wearing the official seal of Yin Tong. Yin Tong's men were greatly alarmed and confused. Xiang Yu even killed nearly a hundred people, and the whole county government was scared to lie prone on the ground. No one dares to get up. Xiang Liang called the familiar strongmen and officials to explain the uprising against Qin, so he launched the Wu Zhongzhi uprising. In this campaign, Xiang Yu single-handedly killed nearly 100 guards of Yintong, showing his unparalleled martial arts for the first time! Twenty-four-year-old Xiang Yu led 8,000 Wuzhong soldiers to rise up against Qin, thus stepping onto the historical stage.

Xiang Liang sent people to receive 8,000 chosen men from the subordinate counties of Wuzhong County, and deployed heroes in the county as a captain, a Hou and a Sima, so Xiang Liang made a patrol to occupy the subordinate counties and took Xiang Yu as the general. In June 208 BC (the second year of Qin Ershi), Chen Sheng was killed, and Xiang Liang called his men to discuss the matter. Fan Zeng, who built a nest to attract the phoenix, came to tell Xiang Liang that it would not last long for the sake of the descendants of Chu, so Xiang Liang followed Fan Zeng's advice and found Chu Huaiwang's grandson Xiong Xin among the people, still making him Chu Huaiwang, and Xiang Liang was named Wu Xinjun.

Xiang Liang's whole army was defeated in East Asia, so don't send Xiang Yu and Liu Bang to attack Yang and Puyang East. Qin Jun was forced to retreat into Puyang City. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang led the army to attack Dingtao and slay the Qin general Li You. Xiang Liang even broke Qin Jun, which is very proud. At this time, Qin sent a large number of reinforcements to support. After getting reinforcements, Zhang Han raided Xiang Liang, and Xiang Liang was defeated and killed. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang attacked Liu Chen, so they talked about retreating. After Zhang Han defeated Xiang Liang, he thought that Chu soldiers were not a worry, so he led the army to cross the Yellow River and defeated Zhao. The prince of Zhao took Chen Yu as the general and Zhang Er as the phase, and defeated the stag. Zhang Han led the king away and involved 400,000 people to besiege the stag. When Chu Huaiwang heard that Xiang Liang had died, he was very scared. ) rushed to Pengcheng, incorporated Xiang Yu and Lv Chen's troops under their own command, appointed Lv Chen as Stuart, Lv Chen's father Lv Qing as Lingyin, and named Liu Bang as the county magistrate and Wu 'an Hou, still leading the party and county troops.

In 207 BC (three years), Chu Huaiwang took Yi Song as the general, named Xiang Yu as the general, took the second son as the general, and Fan Zeng as the last son, thinking that he was the boss, and led the troops to save Zhao by 50,000. Song Yijun arrived in Anyang, stayed for 46 days and stopped marching. Xiang Yu suggested to Yi Song: "Qin Jun surrounded the Zhao Yu Julu, so we can quickly lead the troops to cross the river and attack the domestic and foreign Zhao soldiers, which is bound to break Qin Jun", but he refused to send troops and still drank and had fun in the army. Sometimes the weather is cold and it rains heavily, and the foot soldiers are cold and hungry. Seeing this, Xiang Yu went to see Yi Song in the morning and killed him. Xiang Yu held his head and told the soldiers: "I wanted to plot with Qi, and secretly ordered me to kill him." The generals gave in because of fear, and did not dare to resist, so they temporarily promoted Xiang Yu as the upper general. Huan Chu reported the matter to Chu Huaiwang, and Chu Huaiwang appointed Xiang Yu as the upper general. After Xiang Yu was killed, he was famous as a warlord in Chu, so he sent Dangyang Army and General Pu to cross the river with 20,000 soldiers, and repeatedly attacked the tunnel that sent food to Wang Li's army, but the harvest was not great. Zhao sent to ask Xiang Yu to send his troops again. Xiang Yu led many soldiers and horses to cross the river and fought nine times. Zhang Han was broken, and Xiang Yu continued to attack Wang Li northward with a great army.

After ChuBing beat back Zhang Han, the vassal army was greatly encouraged. Together with Xiang Yu, they attacked Wang Li, killed Su Jiao and captured Wang Li alive. Qin Jun generals refused to surrender and committed suicide. After Qin Jun's defeat, Xiang Yu summoned the governors and generals in Yuanmen. All the generals knelt down and did not dare to look up at Xiang Yu, so Xiang Yu became the governors and generals, and the governors surrendered. Zhang Han led an army stationed in La Yuan, while Xiang Yu was stationed in Zhang Shuinan. The two armies are deadlocked. Qin Jun was defeated by Xiang Yu many times, and Qin Ershi sent someone to blame Zhang Han. Zhang Han was afraid, so he sent Sima Xin with a long history to ask for instructions. Sima Xin arrived in Xianyang, and Zhao Gao stayed in Simamen for three days, refusing to be interviewed. Sima Xin was distrustful and very scared. He quickly fled to Zhang Han camp and persuaded Zhang Han to make plans early. Zhao Yu also wrote a letter.

Xiang Yu ordered Pu Daibing, a general, to cross Sanhujin day and night, engage with him and defeat him. Then Xiang Yu led the whole army to attack Qin Jun in the sewage. Zhang Han sent someone to see Xiang Yu again, hoping to conclude a peace treaty. Xiang Yu called a hundred officials of the civil and military forces to discuss and said, "Now there is less and less rations, so I have to promise them." Military officials agreed, so Xiang Yu and Zhang Han met in the south of Huanshui, and made a covenant. After seeing Xiang Yu, Zhang Han cried and told Xiang Yu about Zhao Gao's various behaviors. Xiang Sui was appointed King Yong, and Sima Xin was appointed General, leading to Xin 'an. In 206 BC 1 1 month, all the soldiers of the vassal who served in Qin were flogged by Chiyou. Now, Chiyou surrendered to the vassal, and the vassal soldiers drove Chiyou into slavery, which caused Chiyou's dissatisfaction and secretly planned. The warlord heard about Chi's plan and told Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu summoned Pu and others to discuss the matter. He thought that there were many stingers, and if he didn't listen to orders after entering the customs, it would lead to great disaster, so Xiang Yu killed more than 20 chi in the south of Xin 'an overnight.

Historical Short Stories: King of the West Chu II

Xiang Yu showed his unique heroism at an early age. When I was a child, I studied with my uncle Xiang Liang. Xiang Liang taught him to read and write, but he didn't want to learn. Then Xiang Liang taught him fencing, but he didn't want to learn it. His uncle asked him what he really wanted to learn. Xiang Yu said that he wanted to learn the skills of leading a thousand troops. How admirable the courage of an eight-year-old child is! From then on, Xiang Liang really loved studying hard in order to learn how to lead troops to fight. We don't know if this story about him asking to learn to lead the troops to fight when he was eight years old is true, but it taught us a simple truth: learning to find what he is interested in and really loves learning is more conducive to stimulating our confidence and interest in learning.

There are no natural heroes, even natural wizards have to undergo continuous training the day after tomorrow. It should be said that Xiang Yu is lucky because he met a good teacher. Xiang Liang was also a courageous and resourceful general at that time. He must have taught as a teacher of Xiang Yu, and at the same time Xiang Yu met Fan Zeng, the counselor. The story of the Hongmen Banquet was planned by Fan Zeng. Although Xiang Yu didn't kill Liu Bang lightly, he was famous for his ingenuity, and Xiang Yu also admired him. In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu was only 25 years old. He is really a hero of the times. We admire Xiang Yu's will to cross the rubicon and his courage to face difficulties. Young people should have more confidence and courage when facing difficulties. If we want to make greater achievements, we must have the determination and perseverance that will never stop until we succeed.

I think students who like Xiang Yu don't want to hear the idiom "besieged on all sides" because Xiang Yu was already in a desperate situation at that time. I didn't expect that Xiang Yu, who was arrogant, would serenade himself and fight alone. One day, he couldn't even protect the woman he loved most. When his favorite concubine drew her sword and committed suicide, I felt that Xiang Yu could not save the overall situation of failure even if he had the power to turn the tide. When we enjoy the operas and movies of Farewell My Concubine with relish, who will think about the sadness of a generation of heroes?

The most tragic story of Xiang Yu's life is that he finally chose Wujiang to commit suicide. Some people criticize and others praise. In the face of Liu Bang's 700,000 troops, he was defeated again and again, and his only/kloc-0,000 troops lost only 800 cavalry. Besides, the leaders also praised Han Xin for fighting like a god. How could he possibly win? Although he also had a chance to escape, he refused to cross the river because he had no face to face his hometown folks, so he drew his sword and killed himself. How sad! A hero who studied the art of war at the age of eight has experienced more than 70 battles, big and small, and is known as the overlord, so he is different from the world.

I think it is common to run away after winning in such a war era. Xiang Yu himself must know the impermanence of victory and defeat, but he also struggled for the last time. When he came to the Wujiang River alone, he unfortunately lost his retreat. He said it was providence, and God would kill him. Maybe no one can compete with him alone. I think he still maintained his heroism at the last moment of his life.

We can't influence others' choices, so let's keep Xiang Yu's tragic move! Bai Juyi once felt sorry for Xiang Yu. If Xiang Yu makes a comeback, who knows how history will develop? However, there is no if in history, only the result, but Xiang Yu's resolute character and noble sense of justice are examples worthy of learning by Chinese children all their lives.

History Short Story: King of the West Chu III

The story of Farewell My Concubine must have become a household name. Xiang Yu, the overlord of the place of Chu, is definitely a tragic hero. His military ability is beyond doubt, and he has set many heroic examples with few victories. Xiang Yu is a famous god of war in history. He loves the world, but he loves concubines more. Unfortunately, Liu Bang finally defeated him. Come and see the legendary story about Xiang Yu with me.

Xiang Yu, who looks down, is the grandson of Xiang Yan, a famous Chu. When he was a child, Xiang Liang taught him to read and write, but he stopped studying soon. He said, "reading and writing can only know one person's name, and learning fencing can only be an enemy of one person, which is very boring, so it is necessary to learn to be an enemy of ten thousand people." So Xiang Liang began to teach Xiang Yu the art of war. Once Qin Shihuang inspected Huiji, Xiang Yu pointed to the ship that Qin Shihuang swam across the river and said, "Qin Shihuang can change." Xiang Liang frighten hurriedly cover your mouth, xiang yu afraid will lead to fatal disaster.

As a teenager, Xiang Yu was eight feet tall and powerful. All the children in Jiangdong are afraid of him. In the first year of Qin Ershi, Chen Sheng and Guangwu revolted, and Xiang Yu was also put on the political stage. Yu Ji is also with Xiang Yu at this time. The life of the uprising is to fight the south and the north. Fighting day and night is very unstable, but as a wife, Yuji never leaves, and she follows her husband wherever he goes. Every time Xiang Yu struggles outside, Yu Ji will personally put on his combat boots and armor and wait for him to come back in the tent. She is always worried about her husband. Every time Xiang Yu wins the battle, Yu Ji will dance and celebrate Xiang Yu with dance music. When she is frustrated outside, Yu Ji always comforts Xiang Yu for the first time. Over time, Yu Ji became a powerful spiritual pillar of Xiang Yu.

One day, Xiang Yu came back with a tired face and lost his old majesty. Yu Ji inquired about the previous story carefully, only to learn that Xiang Liang had died in the front, so Yu Ji immediately prepared wine for Xiang Yu and asked him to drown his sorrows. Going out again and again, winning again and again, Xiang Yu finally became the overlord of the place of Chu, and concubine was also named "beauty", from which came the title of Yu Meiren. Xiang Yu is a single-minded person. After Liu Bang entered Xianyang, Xiang Yu followed him to Qin Shihuang's palace and began to collect all kinds of treasures. He even set fire to Epang Palace just to win a smile from Yu Meiren.

Later, a war broke out between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, two insurgents. At first, Xiang Yu was absolutely dominant, but he was too kind, and later he was gradually at a disadvantage. In the fourth year of World War II, Xiang Yu fought Han Xin, the general of Liu Bang, only to be ambushed by Han Xin. Xiang Yu fought his way out and fled back to the barracks, but his troops had lost 80%. At this time, Xiang Ying has been surrounded by many things, and he knows he can't escape. In the face of his beloved beauty and galloping steed, he borrowed wine to create an eternal famous sentence, "Pull out the mountain and anger the sea, and when it is unfavorable, it will be unfavorable." What can I do without dying? "At dawn, Xiang Yu said," I will try my best to break through the tight encirclement. What will happen to you? " Yuji knew that she would drag the king down. In order not to embarrass Xiang Yu, she turned and pulled out her sword to scratch herself. Xiang Yu burst into tears in the face of the body. He ordered people to be buried in Kyrgyzstan on the spot, and then he got on his horse and ran away like Wujiang River.

In front of Wujiang River, Xiang Yu felt defeated and ashamed to face his elders in Jiangdong. If he continues to kill the enemy, the people in Jiangdong will be implicated, and with the death of his beloved woman, he also lost his spiritual sustenance, so he chose to follow the beauty and committed suicide by the river at the age of 365,438+0. The bold and beautiful Xiang Yu and Yu Ji vowed not to be prisoners, preferring to die in Xiang Yu's arms rather than follow Liu Bang. Their love story touched tens of thousands of people, and the story of Farewell My Concubine came from it. What do you think of this?
