He replied: "What is the use of reading fencing? If you want to learn, learn the military tactics of defeating ten thousand people."
After Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising, he Kuaiji County guards Yin Tong found Xiang Liang to discuss the uprising. Xiang Liang was unwilling to be inferior to others and ordered Xiang Yu to draw his sword and kill Yin Tong.
Xiang Yu was able to kill, and he rose up to his power, and then waved his sword to kill dozens of people. In the spring of the following year, the uncle and nephew led 8,000 Jiangdong soldiers to cross the Yangtze River and raise the anti-Qin Yi flag.
In June 208 BC, after Chen Sheng was defeated and died, Xiang Liang supported King Huai of Chu, and in September Xiang Liang died in the battlefield.
After a year of war, various rebels directly attacked the ruling center of the Qin Dynasty. King Huai of Chu agreed with the generals of all the lines: "The king will be the one who enters the Guanzhong first." In 207 BC, Xiang Yu killed Song Yi, who was stationed in a row to preserve his strength, and commanded a line of troops himself. He competed with another army, and fought with Julu in a bloody battle. Xiang Yu burned his boats and fought with an unprecedented tragic battle.

In 205 BC, Liu Bang launched the Chu-Han battle, , occupied Pengcheng, and Xiang Yu returned to Pengcheng, defeating Liu Bang's 500,000 army with 30,000 elite troops.
But two years later, the situation reversed, Xiang Yu was short of troops and food, so he had to share the world equally with Liu Bang. Liu Bang tore up the peace agreement and pursued Xiang Yu as a victory.
In December of 2018, the Chu army was surrounded by enemies and surrounded by enemies.
