Peng Yue has always played a very special role from the fight between the heroes in the late Qin Dynasty and the battle between Chu and Han.
The guerrilla army led by Peng Yue has never belonged to any princes or subordinate to any separatist forces. It is an independent operation unit and a standard wait-and-see unit.
All of this is related to Peng Yue being the leader of the group.
operates independently because the bandits lack restraint; waiting and watching is also the trend of profit. Therefore, the combat objectives of this irregular army may change anytime and anywhere.
In other words, as long as the interests are sufficient or the friendship is strong enough, Peng Yue’s giant wild Zecao army will work for you.

Peng Yue is more than just a "general thieves"
Peng Yue can rise from the top of the thieves to become the king of lords all the way, relying on him The shrewdness and extraordinary wisdom. In many small incidents, it can be seen that Peng Yue is more than just a "general thief".
At the time of Chen Sheng and Xiang Liang Qunqi, someone persuaded Peng Yue to "effectively", but he answered:
"Two dragons fight each other, and wait for it."
At the end of Qin Dynasty, there was a certain After the powerful heroes gathered in the crowd and received support, they all rushed to join the anti-Qin ranks, or made themselves king, or put themselves under others. However, Peng Yue did not catch up with this trend. Why is this?
Because he knows that if he joins the anti-Qin camp rashly now, he must first become the target of the Qin government army and be suppressed, or he is forced to form alliances or cooperation with other anti-Qin forces, and cannot be independent.
In this way, the chance of success in the future is not high, and the process will be quite difficult. Therefore, Peng Yuening can choose to wait and see the changes, and don't make too much moves for the time being, and wait until the situation becomes clearer.
At the beginning of "The Biography of Peng Yue", Sima Qian recorded his calm and patient side, highlighting the extraordinary success of people, and the purpose of the short story at the beginning of "The Biography of Huaiyin Hou" is the same.
Sima Qian’s portrait
Peng Yue waited for more than a year, and finally, at the invitation of the boy from Zejian, decided to start a career in the uprising.
"Meeting with the future, the late ones are cut...So Yue Nai leads one to cut it... All the people are shocked, afraid of more, don't dare to look up."
Peng Yue's subordinates are all A group of thieves and thieves usually lack discipline and will be a big worry in the future. Therefore, Peng Yue sacrificed the heavy punishment of "Latemen Slash" and executed military discipline orders with iron and blood, finally making this group of mobs formally form an army.
Peng Yue’s army began to gradually expand in size and became a famous guerrilla force in the late Qin and early Han dynasties. This should be attributed to Peng Yue’s outstanding leadership.
Why does Peng Yue oppose Chu?
In June of the first year of the Han Dynasty, Peng Yue gathered more than 10,000 people in Juye, but he had no affiliation. Qi Guotian Rong was dissatisfied with Xiang Yu's entrustment, and killed Tian City and made himself the King of Qi, and sent people to give the seal to General Peng Yue to order against Liang Di.
Peng Yue had the benefit of others, so he sold his life to kill Jibei Wang Tianan, so that Tian Rong could smoothly annex the land of Sanqi.

However, this action has offended Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu ordered Xiao Gongjiao to attack Peng Yue, and Peng Yue broke through and became an enemy of Chu ever since.
In fact, Peng Yue has no compelling reason to stand on the "anti-Chu" side. It seems that he helped Tian Rong only because he obtained the general seal. This "false name" is tantamount to an affirmation and recognition of this group of reckless army.
From another perspective, if Xiang Yu is willing to recruit Peng Yue's troops with fame and fortune, perhaps the outcome of the Chu and Han battles will be completely different.
However, it all depends on the attitude and characteristics of the leader. Xiang Yu, who has a high self-esteem, came from a famous nobleman in Chu State, and of course he despised the strength of Peng Yue and this band of bandits, naturally it is impossible to lure them to fame and fortune.
Xiang Yu’s idea is very simple, just use force to make peaceUp. It's just that he never expected that Peng Yue, an inconspicuous force, would be the fatal wound for him to lose the Chu-Han War.

Peng Yue and Liu Bang formed a "battle friendship"
The special friendship between Liu Bang and Peng Yue can be traced back to the third year of Qin II. Month:
"Pei Gong draws troops to the west and meets Pengyue Changyi. Because they both attacked the Qin army, the battle was unfavorable."
At that time, the two had fought side by side and confronted Qin.
Peng Yue is from Changyi. What he was commanding at the time was only a few thousand bandits and scattered soldiers. Therefore, when he met Liu Bang, who had the same sloppy character and was also an anti-Qin friendly army, the two naturally hit it off.
Peng Yue faced Qin Jun alone, presumably he had no chance of winning, but unexpectedly, he used Liu Bang's troops, but he still failed. After that, Liu Bang continued to advance westward, and Peng Yue stayed near Juyeze to accept Wei's scattered pawns to expand his strength. After
, the two did not meet again. It was not until June of the first year of the Han Dynasty that Chu sent Xiao Gongjiao to attack Peng Yue, and Peng Yue began to intervene in the war between Chu and Han.

In April of the Second Han Dynasty, Liu Bang commanded five vassals of 560 thousand and sixty thousand, and attacked Pengcheng, the capital of Chu, violently eastward.
Peng Yue was already anti-Chu at that time, and had some friendship with Liu Bang before. Now the power of Liu Bang is flourishing, and the lords' anti-Chu voices are rising, Peng Yue can't miss the opportunity and hurry up and tend to favor Liu Bang, who is optimistic.
When Liu Bang's army moved east to Wai Huang, he led more than 30,000 people to join the Han camp, and Liu Bang also affirmed his past contribution to the Wei Di management, so he worshipped Peng Yue as Wei Xiangguo.
It may be Liu Bang’s sincerity and boldness that moved Peng Yue. Even if Liu Bang was defeated in the Pengcheng battle and many princes died, but Peng Yue did not waver and stood firmly with Liu Bang and Chu Xiang Yu is the enemy.

Peng Yue’s contribution
Peng Yue turned out to be Han’s most loyal friend, and he made outstanding contributions to the war.
first cut off the supply line of the Chu army. In July of the Han Dynasty, Peng Yue “burned Chu’s accumulation, re-attacked the Chu army’s Yan Guoxi, and captured Suiyang and Waihuang Seventeen City.”
The root of marching operations, however, is that Peng Yue always haunted the Chu army's transportation line from Pengcheng to Xingyang battlefield. He repeatedly intercepted the logistics support of the Chu army, forcing Xiang Yu to go back to his division for rescue. As a result, Liu Bang was able to defeat the defenders of Cheng Gao and Cao Jiao.
Since then, the battle between Chu and Han began to reverse.
followed by the timely supply of food for the main forces of the Han Dynasty-in the autumn of the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, Peng Yue "returned to more than 20 cities next to Changyi, and obtained more than 100,000 valleys to feed the Han king."
Liu Bang and Xiang Yu In the frontal battlefield confrontation, Peng Yue, in addition to actively attacking the city from the rear of Chu, did not forget to looting grain to supply Han's main force.
In this way, the Han army continued to expand its strength, but the Chu army gradually ran out of troops, and finally headed for defeat.

The last is to avoid the real attack, so that Xiang Yu has more power points.
In May of the third year of Han Dynasty, Liu Bang accepted Yuan Sheng’s suggestion and left Chenggao to lead troops to the south, attracting Xiang Yu’s main force to move south, allowing Xingyang and Cheng Gao to rest, and allowing Han Xin to concentrate on attacking Zhao and Yan. , Qi and other places.
At this time, the shrewd Peng Yue took the initiative to cooperate and crossed Suishui to fight Xiang Sheng and Xue Gong at Xiapi, defeating the Chu army and killing Xue Gong.
As Xia Pi was already around Pengcheng, seeing that Pengcheng, the capital of Chu, was in crisis again, Xiang Yu had to return to his teacher a thousand miles and attack Peng Yue eastward. However, Liu Bang's pressure was relieved instantly, so he marched north again to defeat the final father and regained his army into Gao.

Peng Yue's guerrilla method of constantly avoiding the real and the virtual, brought Xiang YuGreat trouble. Xiang Yu was constantly forced to abandon the battlefield benefits he had obtained, causing a waste of manpower and material resources in the Chu army. And Peng Yue's heart is like a mirror-if he confronts Xiang Yu head-on, he is not an opponent.
Conclusion
Xiang Yu under his anger, every time he pursues, he cannot completely wipe out Peng Yue. Because the cunning Peng Yue only harassed, raided and escaped, in his opinion, it would be fine even if he gave the land he got to Xiang Yu.
Because of this, Peng Yuejun perfectly preserved its own strength and tirelessly sought out the next target; although their number is small, they are a very powerful and highly mobile force; they " The soldiers went to and fro from Chu Chu, and their food was eliminated." He became a major hero in Han's destruction of Chu.
