Chapter 21 Chapter 2 Giant Deer War

Xiang Yu announced loudly: "...After crossing the river, all the boats sank to the bottom of the river, and all the cooking pots were smashed and destroyed. Everyone only brought dry food and drinking water for 3 days. Within 3 days, we will defeat the Qin army and capture Their equipment and provisions...." Granary in North China, an important military town Julu City is located in the northeast of Handan, the capital city of Zhao State, right in the center of the North China Plain. It has been a food distribution center since ancient times. The city is quite large in scale, with strong walls and surrounded by plains. It is a good place for battle.

When Zhang Han attacked Zhao State, Zhang Er quickly protected Zhao Wangxie from Handan and entered Julu to prepare for a long-term war of resistance. The State of Zhao can be said to be established jointly by Zhang Er and Chen Yu. Zhang and Chen are from the State of Wei. Although they have international reputation, the Zhao royal family supported by them is not easy to get the centripetal force of the Zhao people. Hiding in the giant deer also has its last resort. Zhang Er was older, and Chen Yu was his nephew, but Chen Yu admired Zhang Er's demeanor very much, and the two became close friends.After Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the two were wanted with a lot of money. Although they continued to flee under aliases, their relationship became stronger.

When Chen Sheng rebelled, Zhang and Chen defected to his generals, and together with Wu Chen were ordered to manage Zhao. Due to Chen Sheng's lax organization, Zhang Er thought that the opportunity had come, so he supported Wu Chen as the King of Zhao and formally established the State of Zhao. However, Wuchen's regime did not get the support of Zhao's survivors at all, and Zhang Er and Chen Yu worked very hard in management.Soon, Wu Chen was killed, and Zhang and Chen immediately went to find a survivor of the original Zhao clan named Xie, and supported him as the new Zhao Yu.

Although the situation has improved, the Zhao army, which was once the invincible army in the Central Plains, is still not convinced by the commander of Wei nationality. Therefore, the Zhao army led by Zhang and Chen has not been strong. After Zhang Er and others entered Julu, Zhang Han's chief wise general, Wang Li, immediately led his army to surround them heavily. Fortunately, there was still plenty of food in the city, so it would not fall soon. Zhang Er, who is full of strategies, quickly sees that Julu is a pretty good battleground. Inciting other princes with diplomacy has always been his specialty. Therefore, despite the crisis, Zhang Er is still excited to direct this unprecedentedly large "In the decisive battle against Qin, he said to King Zhao:"

"As long as warriors from all over the world gather on the Julu Plain, they will have the most violent and decisive battle with Qin." Zhang Er kept encouraging Zhao Jun in Julu to let them realize their importance: "We should be proud to be the bait for the Qin army's crushing battle." To defend the isolated city, the most important thing is to wait for foreign aid.Zhang Er displayed his amazing diplomatic genius. King Huai of Chu sent the Northern Expedition Corps to respond to his call first. The two major groups in the Qi State—Tian Du and Tian Jian—both sent part of their force to help.

"Fang's Yan Kingdom and Dai Kingdom also came with tens of thousands of troops." Even Wei, which had just been founded, also sent a small number of troops to join in the fun. Zhang Er also knew very well that apart from Chu, the troops of other princes were nothing more than "cheerleaders". Therefore, when Song Yi stayed in Anyang for 46 days, Zhang Er was really out of breath when he received the information." If the reinforcements cannot exert their strength, the morale of the defenders in the city may collapse, and all previous efforts will be wasted. A friend who cut the throat, broke his promise

On the eve of the fall of Handan, Chen Yu was leading his own army to fight against the army of Li Liang who assassinated Wu Chen. When Zhang Er accompanied Zhao Wang to escape into Julu, Chen Yu also led the army to the north of Julu, forming horns with each other, so as to monitor Wang Li's army's movements. But Chen Yu stopped with silence, turning a blind eye to the crisis of Zhao Jun in Julu. Zhang Er sent people to urge him to send troops several times. "There is a crisis in Zhao State, but Chen Yu, who is a general, ignores it, and wants us outsiders to take risks. It's really unreasonable!"

Zhang Er had no choice but to send Zhang Wei, the boss of his own clan, and Chen Ze, the leader of Chen Yu's clan, to venture out of the city and come to Chen Yu's camp to ask for help. "Prime Minister You (Zhang Er) and the general are close friends, how can they break their trust? Julu City is in danger, but the general sits idly by and does nothing to save him. He is afraid that he will be ridiculed by the world." Chen Yu said indifferently: "There are more than 300,000 Qin troops near Zhao, and even Wang Li's siege of Julu has more than 100,000 troops. Our Hebei army has only 20,000 troops. If we act recklessly, we will die in vain. It is better to preserve our strength. Waiting for the opportunity!"

The two special envoys begged hard, so Chen Yu had no choice but to send 5,000 troops, led by the two special envoys, into the city secretly. But the actions of this special task force were discovered by Wang Li long ago, and they were defeated before they got close to the city. Zhang Han VS Xiang Yu, wise generals against tigers In the mind of Zhang Han, the chief general of the Qin Army, Julu was also the main battlefield of a great battle. Although Zhang Han has an army of 300,000, it is actually quite troublesome.All the food and fodder are completely self-care, and it is impossible to make any supplies in Guanzhong, especially after entering the cold winter of November, transportation is difficult, so Zhang Han also believes that only a quick battle can solve the crisis of the Qin army.

"Let's completely solve all the problems in Julu!" Therefore, he also deployed all his troops in this area. The main force is led by myself, and it is located in Jiyuan City in the south of Julu, with more than 200,000 horses. The vanguard was led by Wang Li, who has always been cautious and strategic, and surrounded Julu City. Due to the difficulty of supply, any grain and fodder must not be lost. Zhang Han then built a market road between Jiyuan and Julu, leading directly to the vicinity of the Yellow River.The South Road is a passage surrounded by earth walls on both sides to prevent people from looting grain.

Zhang Han sent Su Jiao, the bravest general in the army, to lead an army on a tour to protect the two provinces. Since Su Jiao was known for his cruelty and skill in warfare, none of the princes dared to use their brains to rob grain. In charge of the supply work is the experienced veteran Shexian. He sits in the camp outside Julu City and directs the deployment of personnel and logistical support. Strictly speaking, the Qin army is well-organized, which is a "golden lineup, especially the leader Zhang Han is resourceful and good at deploying and gathering troops, which gives the Qin army an overwhelming advantage." In terms of manpower deployment, the Qin army stationed in the Julu Plain, the troops of Guangwangli and Sujiao exceeded 100,000. The Chu army is obviously at a disadvantage. There are not many reinforcements from various places, most of which range from 5,000 to 10,000. Although the Zhao army in Julu City claims to be 50,000 to 60,000, most of them are logistics personnel, and the actual combat troops are less than 30,000. Besieged for a long time, morale is low, and it is doubtful whether they can fight a hard battle. The only thing that can be used is Xiang Yu's own main force, which is about 70,000. If he launches a pincer attack from inside and outside, the force may be barely stronger than Wangli's army, but Zhang Han still has 200,000 Qin troops stationed in the southern Jiyuan. support.Therefore, Xiang Yu's only victory is to attack Wang Li and Su Jiao's army with lightning, so that Zhang Han can break the siege of Julu without any time to support him.If he missed a single blow and wanted to face Zhang Han's black shirt army for a long time, no matter how brave Xiang Yu was, he would have no chance of winning. Assault on the tunnel, assault strategy The closer he got to the Yellow River and the more information about the activities of the Qin army on the north bank, the more anxious Fan Zeng became. On the contrary, Xiang Yu was very relaxed. In order to take into account the morale of the whole army, he did not let the Chu army in the Northern Expedition fully know the real information, and he seemed full of confidence.He also handed over the thinking work to Fan Zeng, while he himself was happy all day long, singing marching songs to boost morale, and leading the army to march northward. Every late at night, Fan Zeng went to Xiang Yu's camp to discuss major plans. "The only chance is to attack!" "Then do it like this!" Xiang Yu's indifferent tone is not so much the commander of the army, but more like a naughty boy who wants to play a prank. Fan Zeng couldn't help thinking to himself: "I don't know the importance of the guy!" But he continued: "Zhang Han built a grain transport tunnel near Julu, which is very efficient. As long as there is no shortage of grain ahead, we will hardly have a chance to attack.Wang Lijun's deployment was rigorous and systematic, and there was almost no opportunity to take advantage of it. " "The corridor is so important, so let's attack the corridor!" Xiang Yu expressed his confidence intuitively. Fan Zeng cried inwardly, "Why didn't I think of it?" Fan Zeng had to admire Xiang Yu's intuitive combat genius. "Attacking the tunnel is a good way, it can indeed disturb their morale!" However, it was Su Jiao, the chief fierce general of the Qin army, who was guarding the road. Just hearing this name, not many troops dared to approach Nandao. In order to test the Qin army's response to the surprise attack, Xiang Yu sent Dangyang Lord Yingbu and General Pu, who was a bandit, to lead 20,000 vanguard troops across the river, and took the opportunity to attack Su Jiao's army on the north bank of the Yellow River. Yingbu was brave and experienced. He first sent a special envoy to inform Chen Yu in the north of Julu, asking him to march south at the same time to attract the attention of Wangli's army. When Chen Yu heard that the Chu army was going north, he did not dare to neglect, and immediately led the whole army to go south to face Wang Li on the west side of Julu. Yingbo took advantage of the situation to attack the corridor on the north bank of the Yellow River. Most of the corridors of the Qin army can be connected to the garrison fortress, but there are also some corridors in more remote locations. Yingbu specially chose this corridor to attack. Due to the shortage of troops, Yingbu did not want to capture the passage, his attack target was only to destroy it, so he divided the army into dozens of groups, and chose to attack several southern passages respectively. After the destruction, he blocked it with boulders and trees, stretching more than 10 kilometers. In order to cut off the supply of the Qin army. Su Jiao, the fierce general in charge of the tunnel, is very well-known, so it is inevitable that he underestimates the enemy.When he got information about the Chu army crossing the river, he knew that there were not many people and that Yingbu, who was originally a thief, was leading him, so he didn't care at first. When the Chu army attacked the tunnel separately, he thought that Yingbo was still not out of his true nature as a thief, but only stealing chickens and dogs, so he only sent small troops to bluff and prepare to destroy the various groups of Chu troops who destroyed the tunnel. Su Jiao never expected that Yingbo came prepared.As soon as he heard that the Qin army was coming to fight against them, he immediately blew the assembly signal, and the Chu troops in each group rushed to the designated point where Yingbo was. Yingbu immediately put down the action of destroying the fortifications, and chose the group with the largest number of Qin troops in each group as the target of attack, and he took the lead and rushed to the general of the Qin army who was leading the team. The Qin army came scattered, but the Chu army quickly concentrated. The Qin army with the largest number of people was still a minority in comparison.What's worse is that the commander of the task force is also here. If this task force is wiped out, the Qin army will be considered a failure in the contact battle in the corridor. Therefore, Yingbo launched an unprecedented violent offensive. This task force has not yet figured out what is going on, and has been beaten to pieces and fled. Su Jiao was shocked when he received the news, the damage to his dignity was more serious than the actual loss of troops.Therefore, he assembled more than 50,000 troops and planned to destroy Yingbu's vanguard army in one fell swoop. With everything in store, Xiang Yu put all his eggs in one basket After receiving the information that Yingbo had won a small victory, the Chu army burst into cheers. This was the first major victory for the Chu army after Xiang Liang was defeated. After sending back Chen Yu's special envoy, Xiang Yu decided to cross the river with all his troops. This is a war of victory or death, Xiang Yu knew it very well in his heart, that's why he behaved so freely. When the time comes, he must give the whole army a determination to die. After dinner, Xiang Yu ordered the troops to gather by the river and stood on a hill by the river so that all the troops could see him. Raising his loud voice, Xiang Yu announced loudly: "We are about to cross the river to aid Zhao and destroy Qin. Everyone must be determined to win or die. After crossing the river, sink all the boats to the bottom of the river, smash all the cooking pots and destroy them. If you don't take them with you, everyone only takes them for three days. Within three days, we will defeat the Qin army, seize their equipment and food, and accept the rich hospitality of King Zhao in Julu City. How about it? My sons, give me your life temporarily! ” Naturally, everyone couldn't fully hear Xiang Yu's voice, but the generals in charge of delivering orders kept repeating Xiang Yu's instructions to the outside world. The atmosphere at the scene aroused the high fighting spirit of the Chu army, no one hesitated, immediately cheered loudly, and destroyed all the luggage except weapons, and finally even the barracks were burned down. Under the leadership of Xiang Yu, the Chu army rushed across the river all night. "General Yingbu and General Pu on the bank built a temporary bridgehead along the corridor, preparing to face Sujiao's fierce attack, and waited for Xiang Yu to cross the river before launching a pincer attack from the south." At dawn, Su Jiao came to the battlefield in person, and the brave black shirt army immediately launched a fierce attack on Yingbo's temporary fortress. Although there was information about the Chu army crossing the river, Su Jiao judged that it would take at least a whole day for the Chu army to cross the river completely. After defeating the Yingbo army, they would counterattack, which happened to be able to attack the half-crossed Chu army. Therefore, he decided to concentrate on attacking the Yingbo army first. . In order to buy time, Yingbo ordered to fight with all his strength, waiting for the arrival of Xiang Yu's main force. The fierce battle lasted until noon, and the Chu army was still undefeated. Su Jiao couldn't help being a little irritable. He was still worried that the Chu army crossing the river would be at a disadvantage if they were stuck here for too long, especially since the southern sentinels had no information for a long time. The current dynamics of the main force of the army can no longer be fully grasped. At this time, there was a sudden sound of thunder and drums shaking the sky from the south. Su Jiao was shocked, and immediately sent people to investigate. The inspectors reported that the Chu army, which was full of mountains and valleys, was crossing the hills by the river and advancing rapidly to the battlefield. The situation on the battlefield immediately became 50,000 to 70,000. The Qin army was obviously in a disadvantageous situation. In addition, Xiang Yu's army was a fresh force. The Qin army had been fighting hard for a long time and was already exhausted.The Yingbu army took the opportunity to fight out from the fortress, but the Qin army was attacked by the north and the south.With flat terrain and no danger to defend, the morale of the Qin army immediately collapsed. The Chu army in red jerseys and red banners, with the cavalry as the vanguard, rushed to disperse the Qin army deployed on the plain. One piece." After losing contact with each other, the Qin army lost all fighting spirit and began to abandon their weapons and surrender. Su Jiao's headquarters was also trapped in it. For a general who had never suffered a defeat, he was completely stupid. He even forgot to send a special envoy to notify the friendly army before being wiped out. The 50,000 army soon left only more than 5,000 members of Su Jiao's guards. Seeing that the situation was over, Su Jiao decided to die in the line of duty. He ordered the formation of five hundred death squads and personally led them to Xiang Yu's base camp on the hill. The Chu army attacked with arrows raining from all directions. Within a quarter of an hour, a generation of fierce generals and his death-defying army all died in the arrows. Wang Li's army was defeated, and the giant deer came out of the siege It was the greatest misfortune for the Qin army that Su Jiao deployed all the legions on the plains. The siege from all directions resulted in no one of the Qin army slipping through the net, but it was also the unbelievable luck of the Chu army. At this time, the more than 50,000 Wangli Army, the more than 20,000 Shexian logistics troops on the Julu Plain, and the more than 100,000 Zhanghan main force deployed in Jiyuan did not know the truth that the Sujiao Army had been annihilated. Fan Zeng judged that this was a godsend opportunity. If he could quickly defeat Wangli's army and undo the siege of Julu, and then join Zhao army and the armies of the princes who came to help, Zhang Han's main force would be useless no matter how strong it was. Xiang Yu ordered the exhausted Yingbo army to guard the surrendered Qin army. The main force of more than 50,000 troops led by himself rushed northward without rest after robbing the Qin army of food and fodder and having a full meal. Wang Li's deployment was much stricter than Su Jiao's. Although they were also stationed on the plains, and there were more than 50,000 defenders from Zhao State in the city, Wang Li set up layers of phalanxes, and the troops behind continued to maintain a complete tight guard against the periphery. It's just that the battle line in Julu City is too long, there are reinforcements from various princes everywhere, and Chen Yu's army has also reached the west of the city to interfere, which makes the distribution of Wang Li's troops a bit wider, and the communication is somewhat disadvantageous. What's worse is that food has run out since two days ago. Shexian, who was in charge of supply, immediately dispatched a task force to transport food urgently, but many places in the South Road were cut off, which made the supply work in trouble. Wang Li had a premonition that something was wrong. He entrusted the work of besieging the city to his close lieutenant general, while he himself led a task force of more than 10,000 people to investigate the situation in the south, and sent ten groups of scouts to go deep into the southern front to collect intelligence. Tan Ma quickly reported the tragedy of the Sujiao Army. Wang Li secretly cried out, "It's over. With my own strength, I can't hold back Xiang Yu's main force. What's more, there are reinforcements from the princes all around. With Zhao's garrison, Qin's army will be in a desperate situation." He immediately sent an envoy to notify the Shexian Army, and urgently asked for help from the Zhanghan Army in Jiyuan. Just after the task assignment was completed, the front line reported urgently that Xiang Yu's vanguard cavalry was less than 20 miles away. Wang Li ordered the task force to form a square formation to resist the Chu army's attack with all their strength to buy time.He himself led the close guard team, hurried back to the command headquarters of the besieging army, and ordered the generals of the besieging troops to adjust the defense line outward to resist Xiang Yu's reinforcements. But he never imagined that Xiang Yu himself was also in the leading cavalry unit. The general took the lead, and the morale of the Chu army was like a rainbow. The task force arranged by Wang Li was not an opponent at all, and was defeated in the initial contact battle. Xiang Yu didn't have time to rectify Zhan Chao's head, so he led the cavalry to directly attack Wang Li's siege troops. Although the order was received, before the generals of the siege troops had time to adjust their lineup, Xiang Yu's army had already arrived; behind the cavalry vanguard, the overwhelming Chu army came one after another. The most unlucky one was Wang Li. He rushed to notify all the units to respond, so that he was chased by Xiang Yu before he reached the headquarters in time. Naturally, the small number of personal guards were no match for him, so Wang Li had no choice but to abandon his weapons and surrender. Although they lost their generals, Wang Li's siege army still fought hard. They formed a nine-story phalanx, trying to resist the Chu army's offensive. Xiang Yu took the lead and sprinted in front. The Chu army's vanguard cavalry was eager to protect the lord, so they had to risk their lives to follow Wang Li's army. Xiang Yu broke through the nine-story phalanx in an instant and arrived at the edge of Julu City. The defenders outside the city and the reinforcements of the surrounding princes were all stunned, and before they had time to react, the besieging Qin army had been completely dispersed by the Chu army. Xiang Yu ordered the Zhao army to open the city to respond, and then led the whole army to fight back quickly to join the Chu army behind. When the Qin army encountered such a vicious pursuit, their morale was completely lost, and they abandoned their weapons and surrendered one after another.Blood flowed like rivers on the battlefield, and all the armies of the princes watched from the sidelines, not knowing how to join the battle. The Chu army won a complete victory and captured more than 30,000 Qin soldiers alive. Seeing that the general situation was over, She Xian, who was sticking to the grain and fodder, couldn't bear to lose the grain and fodder that he had worked so hard to get for the enemy, so he ordered the fodder to be burned, rushed into the sea of ​​fire and burned himself to death. The more than 100,000 Julu besieging black shirt army of the Invincible Legion collapsed in less than a day. Not only were the princes terrified, but even Fan Zeng, who planned the war, was taken aback. He had to reevaluate Xiang Yu's military genius. When Julu City was released from the siege, Zhao Guojun and the people cheered thunderously. Zhang Er and Zhao Wangxie went outside the city to comfort the Chu army in person. Xiang Yu set up a temporary base camp in Julu City, and made an appointment with the commanders-in-chief of the reinforcements from the princes. Seeing the bravery of the Chu army and Xiang Yu's combat genius, all the generals were frightened and deeply ashamed. When they entered the gate, they all knelt and walked forward, not daring to raise their heads.After this ceremony, Xiang Yu has become the commander-in-chief of the armies of the princes. The next job is to march westward and capture Guanzhong. Turning faces into enemies, Zhao's sovereignty weakened At the beginning of the siege of Julu, Zhang Er originally intended to take the opportunity to call on the joint forces of the princes to make Zhao Guo the leader in the fight against Qin. Unexpectedly, the Qin army was unexpectedly strong, and the reinforcements from the princes used their mouths but not their hands, which made Zhang Er almost self-defeating. What made Zhang Er most distressed was that Chen Yu, who had a life-and-death relationship, actually refused to save him at a critical juncture, and even more shamelessly publicly stated that he was trying to preserve his strength and avenge Zhao Guo. Thanks to Xiang Yu's help, he was able to escape from the dead, and Zhang Er hated Chen Yu to the marrow.In particular, Chen Ze and Zhang Wei disappeared when they went out to ask for help. Zhang Er suspected that Chen Yu was the victim, so he kept looking for opportunities to question Chen Yu. Chen Yu couldn't stand it, and retorted angrily: "Unexpectedly, Junhou, you hate me so much, so teach me how to take up the responsibility of this general?" So he released his general's seal and pushed it to Zhang Er. Zhang Er was also stunned when he saw Chen Yu's sudden behavior, and did not dare to accept it immediately. The two froze there, and Chen Yu also felt embarrassed, so he left the scene with the excuse of going to the toilet. Zhang Er's guests immediately took the opportunity to say: "I heard that if you don't accept what God wants to give, you may be harmed instead. Now that General Chen handed over the general, if you don't accept it, it will be ominous in terms of God's will. It is better to take the opportunity to take the general and seize his military power." Zhang Er followed him and ordered his subordinates to collect Chen Yu's general seal.After Chen Yu came back, seeing that Zhang Er did not refuse, he couldn't help being furious, so he left Julu City directly, went hunting by the river with hundreds of cronies, and stopped participating in the reconstruction work of Zhao State.At this point, Chen Yu and Zhang Er also officially broke up, and even planted the reason why they would turn against each other in the future. Since Handan City has been severely damaged, and Zhang Han is still stationed in Jiyuan, and may counterattack at any time, Zhang Ernai accompanied Zhao Wangxie to return to Xindu, which is close to the east, to maintain the operation of the Zhao State regime and to fight against Zhang Han. The task was completely handed over to Chu Jun. After the brilliant results of the bloody battle of Julu, Xiang Yu has already become the supreme leader of the northern vassal army in the Central Plains. 【Chen Wende Commentary】 Laozi's "Tao Te Ching Chapter Nineteen": "Abandoning sages and abandoning wisdom, the people will benefit a hundred times; abandoning benevolence and righteousness, the people will return to filial piety; abandoning ingenuity and profit, thieves and thieves have nothing. These three are considered literary and insufficient, so they have a place. See simplicity and simplicity, less selfish desires, no worries about learning." Human beings are originally one of the small and fragile creatures in nature, but some people are eager to show their greatness and intelligence, which violates the principles of nature, and all people are hurt as a result.Therefore, if we can abandon the sage and wisdom and restore the true nature of nature, it will benefit the people a hundred times. The louder the slogan is, the more problems will inevitably arise. Therefore, only when benevolence and righteousness are abandoned, benevolence and justice can be best observed, and the people can restore filial piety. Everyone thinks they are smart, and when everyone only cares about protecting their own interests, the society will naturally laugh at the poor but not at the prostitutes, corruption is rampant, and thieves become heroes.Therefore, the world can follow the rules only when there is no advantage. Sage wisdom, benevolence, righteousness, and ingenuity are all hypocrisy, just a kind of literary talent, and they are not enough to govern the world naturally, so they will deliberately emphasize that asking others to follow such a method will only mess things up. It just gets worse. Lao Tzu's statement is advocating simplicity and opposing literary talent, which may be regarded as contrary to social progress, but if viewed from an empirical level, Lao Tzu's statement is quite reasonable.Excessive use of wisdom is indeed often self-defeating, and it is not as effective as simple and direct. Song Yi's pretentious posture when he was the champion of Qingzi, Zhang Er used the giant deer as a battlefield to rebuild the plan of the joint vertical dream, Chen Yu's excessive self-protection, on the contrary damaged the friendship with Zhang Er for many years, and showed the hypocrisy of intellectuals And vanity. Therefore, when the young Xiang Yu appeared, with a simple and unpretentious style, with determination and courage to show the most primitive instinct of human beings to survive, some veterans on the battlefield were immediately overshadowed. After defeating Xiang Liang, Zhang Han's army, which sent troops northward to encircle Handan, was indeed sharp and excellent in strategy.However, the successive major victories made the generals of the legion extremely arrogant. With the bravery, wisdom, and experience of Wang Li, Su Jiao, and She Xian, if they were not too heavy-handed and ostentatious, Xiang Yu's Chu State Northern Expeditionary Army's strength , it is absolutely impossible to win so easily. On the contrary, in this "virgin show" as the commander-in-chief of the whole army, Xiang Yu seldom showed any ambition. He only wanted to avenge Xiang Liang, and he only wanted to save the siege of Handan with all his strength. Unleash amazing combat prowess.
