In July 209 BC, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up in Daze Township.

In September of the same year, Yin Tong, the prefect of Kuaiji, said to Xiang Liang: "All the people in Jiangxi rebelled. This is the time when God is about to destroy Qin. I heard that the first strikes the people, and the latter is controlled by others. I am going to send troops. I want to use you and Huan Chu. For general."

At that time, Huan Chu was fleeing in Daze. Xiang Liang said, "Huan Chu is fleeing. I don't know where the others are. Only Xiang Yu knows."

So Xiang Liang went out and told Xiang Yu to wait outside with his sword, and then came in and sat down with Yin Tong, saying, "Call Xiang Yu and let him be ordered to find Huan Chu."

After Yin Tong agreed, Xiang Yu killed Yin Tong under Xiang Liang's instructions. Xiang Liang held Yin Tong's head in his hand and wore Yin Tong's official seal.

Yin Tong's subordinates were in great panic and chaos. Xiang Yu killed nearly 100 people in a row. The whole county mansion fell to the ground in fright, and no one dared to get up.

Xiang Liang called together the powerful officials he was familiar with before, and explained to them the reason for the uprising against Qin, so he mobilized the army of Wuzhong to revolt. Xiang Liang sent people to take over the counties under Wuzhong County, and got a total of 8000 elite soldiers.

He also deployed the heroes of the county and sent them to be the school lieutenant, marquis, and Sima respectively, so Xiang Liang became the prefect of Kuaiji, and Xiang Yu was the assistant general to patrol and occupy the subordinate counties.

In June 208 BC, Chen Sheng was killed, and Xiang Liang called his subordinates to discuss matters. Fan Zeng, a man living in the nest, came to tell Xiang Liang that if he did not establish a descendant of the Chu state but became self-reliant, it would not last long.

So Xiang Liang listened to Fan Zeng's advice, found Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai of Chu among the people, and still established him as King Huai of Chu, and Xiang Liang called himself Lord Wu Xin.

Xiang Liang led the army to defeat the Qin army in Dong'a, and then sent Xiang Yu and Liu Bang to attack Chengyang, defeated the Qin army in the east of Puyang, and the Qin army was forced to retreat into Puyang City. .

Xiang Liang was very proud of defeating the Qin army. At this time, Qin sent a large number of reinforcements to support Zhang Han. After receiving the reinforcements, Zhang Han raided Xiang Liang, and Xiang Liang was defeated and killed.

Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were unable to attack Chenliu, so they discussed withdrawing the army. Xiang Yu led the army to station in the west of Pengcheng, and Liu Bang stationed in Dang.

After Zhang Han defeated Xiang Liang, he thought that the Chu soldiers were nothing to worry about, so he led his troops across the Yellow River to the north and defeated Zhao.

Zhao Wang took Chen Yu as his general and Zhang Er as his prime minister, and defeated Julu. Zhang Han led Wang Li and Shejian with a total of 40 people to besiege Julu.

When King Huai of Chu heard that Xiang Liang had died in battle, he was very frightened and rushed from Xutai to Pengcheng. The governor of Dang County and Marquis of Wu'an still command the army of Dang County.

In 207 BC, King Huai of Chu took Song Yi as the general, named Xiang Yu Duke of Lu as the second general, and Fan Zeng as the last general. With Song Yi as the commander in chief, he led [-] troops to rescue Zhao.

Song Yi's army marched to Anyang, stayed for 46 days, and stopped marching. Xiang Yu suggested to Song Yi: "The Qin army surrounded Zhao Yujulu. If we quickly lead the troops across the river and attack Zhao soldiers inside and outside, we will surely defeat the Qin army."

But Song Yi refused to send troops, and was still drinking and having fun in the army. It was cold and raining heavily, and the soldiers were cold and hungry. Seeing this situation, Xiang Yu went to see Song Yi in the morning and beheaded him.

Xiang Yu held Song Yi's head and told the soldiers: "Song Yi wants to join forces with Qi to rebel, King Huai of Chu secretly ordered me to kill him."

The generals succumbed out of fear and did not dare to resist, so they pushed Xiang Yu to be the general for the time being. Huan Chu reported the matter to King Huai of Chu, and King Huai of Chu appointed Xiang Yu as the general.

After Xiang Yu killed Song Yi, he shocked the country of Chu and became famous among the princes, so he sent Dangyang Jun and General Pu to lead [-] soldiers to cross the river and attack Zhang Han many times. Yu sent someone to ask Xiang Yu to send troops again.

Xiang Yu led all his troops across the river, and fought nine times with the Qin army. Zhang Han was defeated, and Xiang Yu led his army to continue northward to attack Wangli.

One of the soldiers of Chu fought against ten, and the voice moved the sky. After Zhang Han was defeated, the princes' army was greatly encouraged. They attacked Wangli together with Xiang Yu, beheaded Su Jiao, and captured Wangli alive. Qin general Shejian did not want to surrender and committed suicide.

After defeating the Qin army, Xiang Yu summoned the generals of the princes at the Yuanmen, and all the generals came kneeling, not daring to look up to Xiang Yu, so Xiang Yu became the general of the princes, and the princes all belonged to him.

Zhang Han led his army to garrison in Jiyuan, and Xiang Yu garrisoned in the south of Zhangshui. The two armies did not fight. Ask for instructions.

When Sima Xin arrived in Xianyang, Zhao Gao stayed in Simamen for three days and refused to see him, which meant he didn't trust him.

Sima Xin was very frightened, and fled to Zhang Han's camp in a hurry, urging Zhang Han to make plans early. Zhao Jun and Chen Yu also wrote to Zhang Han, urging him to rebel against Qin. negotiated.

Xiang Yu asked General Pu to lead the army, crossed Sanhujin day and night to fight the Qin army, defeated him, and then Xiang Yu led the whole army to defeat the Qin army on the sewage.

In this battle, after Xiang Yu led his army across the Zhang River, he ordered all the ships to be scuttled and all the cooking utensils destroyed, and he took only three days of food and grass to fight against the Qin army.

As a result, Xiang Yu's soldiers marched forward bravely with the determination to die, and Xiang Yu's army's combat effectiveness was greatly improved because of this. All of them blocked ten with one, killing the princes and soldiers with fear, and finally won the battle of Julu.

After the Battle of Julu, Zhang Han sent people to see Xiang Yu again, wanting to conclude a peace treaty. Xiang Yu summoned the military officials to discuss and said: "Now the army rations are getting less and less, I want to promise them."

The military officials said yes, so Xiang Yu and Zhang Han made an appointment to meet at Yinxu in the south of Huanshui and made an alliance. After seeing Xiang Yu, Zhang Han cried and told Xiang Yu about Zhao Gao's various actions.

Therefore, Xiang Yu appointed Zhang Han as the King of Yong, Sima Xin as the general, and led the Qin army as the front, and marched to Xin'an.

In August 206 BC, the princes of Qi and Zhao rebelled, and Xiang Yu led his army to quell the rebellion. He was very angry when he heard that Liu Bang had set Guanzhong.

After Peng Yue defeated Xiao Gongjiao, Zhang Liang forged a letter from the king of Han to Xiang Yu, saying that Liu Bang only wanted to win Guanzhong and would not send troops to the east. So Xiang Yu was relieved to attack Qi.

Xiang Yu recruited Jiujiang Wang Yingbo, but Yingbo was not sick, so he sent his generals to lead only a few thousand people, Xiang Yu hated Yingbo for this.

In the winter of 205 BC, when Xiang Yu went north to Chengyang, Tian Rong led his troops into battle and was defeated by Xiang Yu. Tian Rong fled to the plains and was killed by the people of the plains.

Xiang Yu burned the houses of Qi State, killed all the soldiers, and moved all the captives, men, women, and children to Beihai. There were countless deaths and injuries. Therefore, the people of Qi State gathered together to rebel. Tian Heng took the opportunity to recruit tens of thousands of Qi soldiers to attack Chengyang. No more.

Liu Bang led the five princes with 56 soldiers and horses, and attacked Chu in the east. After Xiang Yu heard about it, he stayed in the army and continued to attack Qi. He personally led [-] elite troops to rescue Pengcheng.

After Liu Bang captured Pengcheng, he collected treasures and beauties, and held a big banquet. Xiang Yu led his army to fight from Xiao County from west to east in the morning, and hit Pengcheng at noon, smashing Liu Bang's army and killing more than [-] Han soldiers.

Liu Bang's army fled to Nanshan, and Xiang Yu led his army to pursue to the east of Lingbi to stop them. More than [-] Han soldiers fell into Sui Shui, and Sui Shui did not flow.

Xiang Yu surrounded Liu Bang for three layers, but a strong wind blew the Chu army into chaos. Liu Bang took the opportunity to lead dozens of cavalry to escape.

Liu Bang fled to Xiayi, collected the defeated and scattered soldiers to Xingyang, and the defeated troops from all walks of life came to join up one after another. Xiao He also mobilized the people who were not registered in Guanzhong to join Liu Bang, so Liu Bang was able to regain his army.

Xiang Yu took advantage of the victory to fight, but was unable to win. After Liu Bang was defeated in Pengcheng, the princes rebelled against Liu Bang and attached themselves to Xiang Yu.

In 204 BC, Liu Bang built a tunnel in Xingyang to cross the river to get grain from Aodi. Xiang Yu's army repeatedly invaded the tunnel.

Under Fan Zeng's suggestion, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng encircled Xingyang, intending to eliminate Liu Bang.

Liu Bang was very afraid, and adopted Chen Ping's strategy to drive a wedge between Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng. Xiang Yu then deprived Fan Zeng of his rights.

Fan Zeng didn't expect that Xiang Yu would suspect that he had colluded with Liu Bang, and was very angry, so he retired and returned home, but died of illness on the way.

Xiang Yu besieged and attacked Liu Bang in Xingyang on all sides. Liu Bang's army was in critical condition, so his general Ji Xin led two thousand troops out of the city in a yellow chariot pretending to be Liu Bang, saying that Liu Bang was willing to surrender. Xiang Yu came to see Ji Xin and asked where Liu Bang was. Xin said that Liu Bang had escaped, so Xiang Yu burned Ji Xin to death. "
