Grace and hatred.

Just like a pair of twin brothers, when you are grateful, maybe the grudge has already grown in the bottom of your heart, this is Xunzi's description of the theory of "human nature is evil", and now, the change in Xiang Yu's attitude towards Li Yuan stems from the viciousness hidden in his heart, when the people around him compare Li Yuan with him again and again, the scales in Xiang Yu's heart are also tilting day by day.

In Sima Gong's historical description, the advantages and disadvantages of Xiang Yu's personality are presented to the greatest extent, his courage and skill in fighting the world are invincible, and his pride and arrogance also make people feel speechless. Even the desperate war song he sang with Yu Ji when they were besieged under the wall revealed a strong meaning of blaming others.

"Pull out the mountain and cover the world, the times are not good, and the skull will not pass away, but there is nothing to do! Yu Xi Yu Xi Nao! In addition to praising his unparalleled martial arts, Xiang Yu was not impressed by his own shortcomings, but that God would not help, and at the same time, he also asked Yu Ji desperately, what should I do now?

At the critical time of life and death, Xiang Yu was like a spoiled child, facing sudden changes, he didn't know what to do at all. In contrast, Liu Bang is much more decisive, when it is time to push away his children to escape, he will never be merciful, and when it is time to leave his subordinates to flee, he will turn around and run away after shedding a few tears of crocodile blood. As a king, if he doesn't even have this judgment, then even if he is ten times braver, he will not be able to win the world.

Heroes also have shortcomings.

There is no doubt that Xiang Yu is not a perfect person, nor is he a saint, and the aiqing that has been sung between him and Yu Ji for 2,000 years is actually an elegy for a down-and-out king and a concubine.

When Xiang Yu was in power, Yu Ji was definitely not his only woman, otherwise, Yu Ji would not only have a surname, and she would not even have a name. And when Xiang Yu was down, Yu Ji was the only woman by his side, this is the cruel truth of the myth of Farewell My Concubine.

In fact, the reason why Xiang Yu is sought after is mainly because he is a tragic hero, according to Japan's evaluation standards for hero ability, generally heroes who die early will automatically add one level to their ability value, which is the so-called "those who die early are invincible" argument.

At the same time, those who hold this argument will automatically add it. If so-and-so is still around, how about it? What if so-and-so hadn't been negligent and had died? This kind of argument, which gives people unlimited imagination, gives room for the imagination of those who cannot come to history in person.

The smoke of the Chu-Han War was suspicious, and with the sudden rise of Li Yuan, it became unrecognizable, Liu Bang was defeated on the bank of Zhangshui, and Lu Pheasant, who represented the remnants of the Han Kingdom, also disappeared into the mountains of Shennongjia.

Now in front of the state of Chu is the state of Qin, a mountain that has towered into the sky. They either surrendered to the bottom of the mountain and became one of the many small hills around them, or they simply fought small and big, taking advantage of the fact that the foundation of the Qin State was not yet solid. I slammed into it with all my might.

The war machine of the state of Chu rumbles into action.

In the face of Xiang Yu's arrogance and stubbornness, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks, Zhong Liwu, Ji Bu and other generals sighed in mourning, they had already said what they should have said. How to go on the road of the Chu State, after all, it is not up to them outsiders to influence; As for Xiang Tuo, Xiang Sheng, and Xiang Zhuang of Xiang's Chu State, they expressed firm support for Xiang Yu's decision.

Xiang wants to get a greater benefit. Just relying on the existing seven counties that have almost been squeezed dry, it is impossible at all, it is okay to deceive children by digging potential inside, and in the case that the important officials of each county are all children of the Xiang family, there is indeed no one who knows the true situation of Chu State better than Xiang Tuo and others.

"Occupy the Wei State, seize the Great Liang, and open my Great Chu!" After a short rest, the morale of these Chu soldiers was lowered, mainly because of the situation they saw after returning to their hometown, which gradually shattered their hopes of fighting the battlefield.

The sequelae of high taxes are spreading throughout the Chu State, and those families who lack school-age labor at home have fallen behind in this race for survival. And among these crippled families, a considerable part of the strong laborers participated in the Chu army, but their luck was not very good, and they did not come back alive.

"I'm going to go on an expedition again, I don't know if I can come back this time?" In such a solemn environment, every Chu pawn who left his hometown almost no longer had the intention of making meritorious contributions and glorifying the court.

Go home safely.

Using his not strong arms to protect the safety of the family is the most important decision for a man, on the contrary, what is the righteousness of the country and what is the king and the prince have become a prince have become no longer important.

The pawn is so.

The backbone generals of the Chu army, such as Ji Bu, Ding Gong, and Xue Gong, were actually not enthusiastic about conquering Wei.

This is mainly because their current situation is not up or down, if they want to rise further, it will inevitably threaten the interests of the officials of the Xiang Group, if they want to maintain their current position, as long as there are no major mistakes, basically the Xiang family will not kill these old people who have followed Xiang Yu for many years.

After all, the friendship of working together is there, if the power and position of the foreign department are completely deprived, the Chu army will truly become the private army of the Xiang family, in that case, this army will be no different from the personal guests of the four princes during the Warring States period.

After the battle of Jiangdong, Xiang Zhuang has firmly sat in the top position in the Chu army, in addition to him, Xiang Han because of the counterinsurgency Huiji County meritorious service, the status of the army is also rapidly improved.

Chenjun.

This famous place, where Chen Wangsheng rose up back then, fell silent with the defeat of Chen Sheng. In the vicinity of Daze Township, a team of more than 2,000 Chu troops was marching slowly, judging from the weight of the vehicles they carried, this was a team that served as a supply for baggage. The direction of the advance of the baggage team was the northern part of Chen County, at the junction with the Wei state, where the Chu army was in a large-scale build-up and urgently needed supplies such as heavy grain and straw.

However, what is strange is that on the banner of the Chinese army of this Chu army, the surnames of the generals with the word "Ji" are embroidered, and among the Chu army, there is only one general with the surname Ji, that is, the former Five Tiger Generals: Ji Bu.

When did Jibu fall into the place of doing chores?

You must know that among the generals of the Chu army, among the old five tiger generals, although Zhong Liwu has returned, there are only two still alive Ji Bu and Yu Zi period, and Yu Zi is good at logistics, and his command and combat ability is obviously weak, in this case, Ji Bu is still not allowed to be reused, which shows that Xiang Yu's trust in him no longer exists.

In addition, although Chen County belonged to the Chu State, it was not the core area of the Chu State. This is the core area of the former Chen Sheng Zhang Chu regime, after the fall of Chen Sheng, Lu Chen's Cangtou army commander was stationed here, this Liliang is currently stationed in Pengcheng, and Ji Bu was sent to Chen County, I have to say that the Xiang clan is also frequent in dividing the external Liliang.

Never let any liliang that threatens the foundation of the Xiang family appear, this is the most important article of Xiang Tuo's governance, and it is under this guiding ideology that the Xiang family has survived the challenge of Kuaiche, Shusun Tong and other emerging shili, Yuzi period and other relatives shili, and now, in the Chu State, only Xiang Chu is decided.

When Jibu was sent to Chen, he was basically marginalized. With the same fate as Ji Bu, there is also his uncle Ding Gong. This Chu general, who played an important role in the Chu-Han War, has been very unsatisfactory recently.

"Abu, this time to attack Wei, it seems that the overlord is not ready to send us to fight, this is cheap for that kid in Xiang Zhuang." In the queue, the Chu general Ding Gong, who was riding on a crossbow horse, was angry and angry. This time, before the expedition to Wei, the task was assigned, and Ding Gong was assigned this messenger to escort the baggage, which made Ding Gong, who had always considered himself a famous general of the Chu army, swallow this breath.

"Uncle, why haven't you understood that this Chu State is no longer the original Chu State, and in the same way, the overlord is not the overlord who crossed the river and forged ahead and sacrificed his life to fight with the Qin people." On the side of Ding Gong, Ji Bu, who was riding side by side, looked lonely and said helplessly.

"Abu, what are you going to do next, you can't let people belittle again and again, Zuihou can't even be a general, right?" Ding Gong thought about it and asked again.

"Uncle, my brother-in-law has sent a letter, he has become a captain in the Qin State, and the troops under his command are also 3,000 people, which is much stronger than you and me." Ji Bu smiled bitterly and replied to the question. Speaking of Ji Xin, Ji Bu's face showed a little relief, at the beginning, Ji Xin was captured by the Qin army, and he was still worried about Ji Xin's safety, but he didn't expect that after only a few years, Ji Xin actually made a world in the Qin State.

"Abu, if that kid Xiang Yu insists on not using us, why don't we go to the Qin State, with Ah Xin there to introduce us, maybe we will be reused by the Qin State." Ding Gong's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said eagerly.

"Uncle, you whisper, there are Xiang Sheng and Xiang Han's troops watching around us, if they know Ah Xin's identity in the Qin State, this baggage battalion probably won't need you and me to take it." Ji Bu smiled bitterly.

Let's be honest.

In the Chu State mixed up like this, Ji Bu's heart also began to cold. This time he was degraded, maybe Ji Xin's identity was exposed, which made Xiang Yu, Xiang Tuo and others more wary of him.

Xiang Yu's suspicion is very serious.

Ji Bu was clear about this, so he had been hiding the news of Ji Xin's service in the Qin army, but he didn't expect that Xiang Yu would be so distrustful of his subordinates and old brothers. In fact, the matter of brothers being their masters was very common in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even if he told the world, he Ji Bu had nothing to avoid, as a general in the Chu army, Ji Bu relied on real skills, not anything else.
