Late at night, the air was extremely cold, Xiang Yu was restless in the military camp, Battle of Gaixia has reached a tight moment, the army was exhausted, the food was exhausted, and people were panicked. How should we go in the future?
fight or surrender?
Xiu Yu bit his lips tightly, his body trembling slightly.
Suddenly, singing sounds spread from outside the military camp not far away. Xiang Yu stood up suddenly and looked outside. He took two steps back and fell into the hall. Could it be that I am really going to lose?
General! Yu Ji rushed over and knelt in his arms. Her face was covered with tears and she couldn't cry.
Xiang Yu sighed and said in a low voice, Yu Ji, this is probably my end, I am afraid I will lose you in this life.
As he said, he stood up, poured a glass of wine, poured it down suddenly, laughed to the sky, then turned around and looked at his generals, and said firmly, "Let's go, fight!"
Xiang Yu walked out of the camp with the last soldiers. He was majestic and murderous intent, and disappeared into the mountains and forests in the dark.
Little did they know that this battle was the entire end of his life.
That year, he was only in his thirties. He left his best time on the battlefield. Life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky. Is fate really no way back?
How did Xiang Yu get to this point? What kind of inspiration does his life trajectory have for us?
1. Xiang Yu’s highlight moment
When Xiang Yu raised his army, he was only twenty-four years old, and it was the time to be full of energy.
generals have been a general of Chu State for generations. His father Xiang Yan is also a famous soldier and was killed by Qin State Wang Jian . After his father passed away, Xiang Yu has been growing up with his uncle Xiang Liang.
When Xiang Yu was young, he was extremely energetic and thought he was very capable. He didn't want to study, so he wanted to learn skills and kill the enemy on the field.
Xiang Liang was very angry and often scolded him angrily.
Xiang Yu said unconvincedly that studying is just a few words, it’s meaningless. What I want to learn is the ability to compensate for one thousand.
Xiang Liang learned so that he used military techniques to teach him. Unexpectedly, this kid learned very quickly.
But he was young and angry. After learning for a while, he thought he understood, but he refused to make progress again. Xiang Liang had no choice but to do anything to him.
Later, there was a time when Qin Shihuang Zhouzhang to the whole country to Kuaiji . Xiang Liang took Xiang Yu to watch it. Xiang Yu couldn't help but shout, "When I grow up, I want to take his place."
Xiang Liang was shocked and quickly covered Xiang Yu's mouth, asking him not to talk nonsense, so as not to suffer disaster.
Obviously, when this hero was young, he had different ideas from ordinary people.
In 209 BC, the world finally could no longer bear the harsh criticism of Qin's tyranny. Some of the people began to rebel. The county magistrate of Kuaiji County Yin Tong encouraged Xiang Liang to rebel together.
Xiang Liang agreed to let me ask Xiang Yu to come in and discuss. When Xiang Yu was summoned in, Xiang Liang signaled him, and Xiang Yu drew his sword and cut off Yin Tong's head.
The people around him were so scared that they knelt on the ground and did not dare to look up.
Xiang Liang seized Yin Tong's military power, summoned nearby soldiers and officials to raise troops to Wuzhong. From
, Xiang Liang and others first followed the team of Chen She under Chen She to go west. Later, Chen She was killed, Xiang Liang and others rushed from Pengcheng to Xue County to discuss the next arrangements.
At this time, Liu Bang also revolted from Pei County and went to Xue County to surrender to Xiang Liang's team.
年博 Fan Zeng went to persuade Xiang Liang that the demise of Chu was the most innocent, and after King Huai of Chu went to Qin, he did not come back at all. If the uprising is to make the descendants of Chu the king first, and then raise an army to wipe out Qin, then there will be a legitimate reason.
Xiang Liang followed Fan Zeng's advice and found Sun Xin, the descendant of King Huai of Chu among the people, and then made him the king.
Then he continued to advance westward and confronted the Qin army.
In the battle of Dingtao, Xiang Liang defeated the Qin army, and the Chu soldiers were arrogant. The Later Qin army defeated the Chu army, and Xiang Liang was killed.After Xiang Liang's death, Sun Xin, the King of Chu Huai established by Xiang Liang, did not value Xiang Yu. He promoted Song Yi, suppressed Xiang Yu, and ordered the two to lead the army to Zhao Guo Julu to fight against the Qin army.
and his group arrived at Anyang , but Song Yi ordered people to stay there, just not to enter Julu.
Xiang Yu told Song Yi that we should march quickly, work with the Zhao army inside and outside, and wipe out the Qin army. Song Yi disagreed, saying that he understood the art of military affairs. Now it’s not time, so let’s talk about it later.
Xiang Yu was anxious and couldn't wait. He advised Song Yi many times, but this man who couldn't get into the water just refused to listen.
Xiang Yu could not bear it anymore. Finally one day, he broke into the military camp and killed Song Yi in the head, posing as the order of King Huai of Chu, saying that he asked him to kill Song Yi privately, thus seizing the military power.
Xiang Yu took action first and then reported, and King Huai of Chu was also unable to do anything. He had to grant Xiang Yu the general and asked him to go to Julu for emergency treatment.
Xiang Yu led his troops across the river with his troops and determined to die, and killed into the city, defeating Wang Li 's troops, scaring the Qin army to run around. In this battle of
, Xiang Yu was famous all over the world, and everyone had to accept it. Everyone bowed their heads and dared not look up to him .
This is the most glorious moment in Xiang Yu's life. The Battle of Julu is enough to record into history.
2. The confrontation between Xiang Yu and Liu Bang
Then, Xiang Yu led his troops westward to Xianyang . On the way, he met two Qin generals Chapter Handan and Sima Xin . They were willing to follow Xiang Yu and turn against the Chu army. So Xiang Yu took it into his army. At the same time, he killed other Qin soldiers to avoid causing trouble. He only took Zhang Han, Sima Xin and other three people to Qin land .
From this point of view, Xiang Yu is indeed cruel. He is brave in leading his troops, but he is cruel in nature. He burns and kills the words wherever he goes, which is a pity.
After Xiang Yu arrived in Xianyang, he discovered that Liu Bang had already broken through the gates of Xianyang with his army.
Xiang Yu was very angry, why didn’t he go to the city first? Fortunately, Liu Bang had a foresight and did not move every grass or tree in Xianyang City, but just garrisoned the troops to the forefront, waiting for Xiang Yu's arrival.
In fact, at that time, Xiang Yu was very arrogant and Liu Bang had no ability to resist him.
Xiang Yu pretended to invite Xiang Yu to have a banquet with Hongmen. That night, Liu Bang escaped by luck and saved his life.
But Xiang Yu did not realize that this mistake had changed his entire life trajectory later.
A few days later, Xiang Yu also brought his men and horses to slaughter Xianyang and plundered the beautiful jewels. Someone told him that since Qin State has been destroyed, the world is yours. You might as well be stable in the pass. The terrain here is dangerous and the resources are abundant, and it is a good place.
Xiang Yu didn't, he insisted on bringing his troops back to Pengcheng.
He said:
"Wealth and honor will not return to our hometown, like embroidered clothes walking at night, who knows it!"
This sentence is a little childish no matter how you look at it, you will return to your hometown and show your reputation and gains to the people in your hometown. What is this logic?
Shouldn’t a overlord think about the next strategy after he becomes king?
Why did you return to your hometown to recuperate?
In short, Xiang Yu proclaimed himself King of Western Chu , returned to Pengcheng, and demoted Liu Bang to the poor Bashu.
How could Liu Bang be willing? Xiang Yu just took a few steps before Liu Bang recovered it.
Five years, for a full five years, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu confronted each other for so long.
The two finally reached the point of a decisive battle.
3. The decisive battle, Xiang Yu's death
Liu Bang attacked Xiang Yu several times, but was beaten to pieces by Xiang Yu.
For a long time, Liu Bang was not able to face Xiang Yu, but one person changed the situation.
This person is Han Xin .
Han Xin once followed Xiang Yu, but Xiang Yu did not use him. Later, he went to Liu Bang's platform.
Liu Bang gave him a chance and allowed him to display his military talent. After Liu Bang was beaten back by Xiang Yu, he seized Han Xin's military power and sent him to pacify Qi.
This time, Han Xin has completely become the boss in Qidi.
For a period of time, the world was divided into three parts, and Liu Bang, Han Xin and Xiang Yu were facing each other.
Xiang Yu wrote a letter to invite Han Xin to join him. Han Xin hesitated and did not agree. He thought that Liu Bang had been kind to him and couldn't bear it.
Finally, Liu Bang designed again and promised to give Han Xin a fief after the matter was completed. Han Xin then calmed down and stood on Liu Bang's side to fight against Xiang Yu together.
At this point, with the cruelty of the war, Xiang Yu's strength was finally exhausted.
That night, Xiang Yu rushed out with the remaining 800 troops.
Liu Bang was alert and immediately ordered the general Guanying to chase after him with five thousand cavalry.
When Xiang Yu crossed Huai River , there were only more than one hundred cavalrymen who could keep up with him.
Wait for him to arrive at Yinling , but he got lost. He found a farmer to ask for directions. The farmer fooled him and told him to go left. Unexpectedly, there was a swamp on the left. After such trouble, the Han army chased after him again.
Xiang Yu immediately made a decision and took his troops eastward to the East City. At this time, there were only twenty-eight soldiers left under his command, but thousands of people in the Han army chased after him.
Xiang Yu turned his head and said to his soldiers, "I am trapped here today. It is because the heavens are going to kill me, not because I am afraid of fighting. Even if I die, we must fight hard!"
So, the remaining troops were divided into four teams and rushed out of the Han army's siege together.
Han general Yang Xi came to challenge and chase Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu glared at him, which scared Yang Xi backed down one after another, and his troops were overturned. Xiang Yu rushed forward again and killed another Han general.
Everyone died in battle, only Xiang Yu was left. He killed and ran away and came to the side of Wujiang .
The head of Youwei Pavilion by the Wujiang River could not bear to watch Xiang Yu defeated, and persuaded Xiang Yu to cross the river and make a comeback.
Xiang Yu did not agree. He said that I would cross the river with eight thousand children from Jiangdong and cross the river to the west, but now none of them survived. What kind of face do I have to go back?
Finally, Xiang Yu dismounted and fought against the Han army with a short sword alone, killing more than a hundred Han generals. Xiang Yu suffered a severe blow and finally couldn't hold on.
He half-kneeled by the Wujiang River, raised his sword and committed suicide, and the blood stained the river water red.
Five knights of the Han army arrived one after another, Wang Yi cut off Xiang Yu's head, leaving four people Yang Xi, Lu Matong , Lu Sheng and Yang Wu divided Xiang Yu's corpse.
From then on, the bravest man in the world has become a good story in history.
4.
Many people are thinking about a question. Is Xiang Yu still possible to get up again?
The reason why he is not Jiang is because of his temperament. He thinks he is not that handsome.
However, the pavilion chief by the Wujiang River told Xiang Yu that although the east of the Yangtze River is small, the place is thousands of miles away. You can still be called a king.
But Xiang Yu didn't do that, he chose to perish.
Look at a person who wants to lengthen the life curve of this person. When Xiang Yu became famous in the Battle of Julu, this was his peak moment. Since then, he has been on a downhill road until his desperate situation.
However, even in desperate situations, he was only in his thirties at that time, and his life was far from the end, so why was it impossible?
I don’t know why Xiang Yu didn’t choose to cross the river. I think everything is possible as long as life is in it.
" Kangxi Dynasty ", Minister Li Guangdi was made by Soetu and Mingzhu , and he didn't know what to do. In the end, he angered Kangxi , and Kangxi sent him to prison.
Li Guangdi was in pain and wanted to die. Fortunately, Su Malagu arrived and saved him. She said to Li Guangdi, "You are dead, no one will overturn the verdict for you. As long as you are alive, it is possible."
As long as you are alive, it is possible.
, and look at After Liu Bang became emperor, the Central Plains seemed to be calm, but in fact, undercurrents surged. Chen Xi , Han Xin and many others rebelled. In order to eliminate these rebels, Liu Bang went back and forth several times, and he really exhausted his energy.
Why is Xiang Yu impossible?
He should survive, reflect on himself, learn about Liu Bang's strengths, and improve his combat thinking ability. Like this old fox, he can play with his mind and maybe history can be rewritten.
Everyone's life curve is floating up and down, but some people are floating very large, while others are floating smoothly.
At the Battle of Gaixia, Xiang Yu had already been forced to death to the corner. How else could he go? If you overcome this hurdle, you might be able to get up?
If you can’t raise your troops again, it’s better to have a peaceful life.
People live, don’t they have to fight. If people are gone, there will be nothing. Until the last moment, they cannot admit defeat.
Many people have analyzed the characteristics and personality of Xiang Yu, and it is meaningless to talk about it again.
I think from another perspective, it is to look at a person’s life trajectory.
Everyone has ups and downs, and no one can go smoothly. This is how life is.
If you can understand this, if you encounter any ups and downs in your life, you may face them more calmly.
