[After destroying the Qi State, only the last enemy remained, that is, the most powerful Western Chu overlord Xiang Yu. 】

[The decisive battle with Xiang Yu, also known as the decisive battle under the wall, this is the decisive battle between Chu and Han, and it is also the last battle in Han Xin's life, but before that, Liu Bang also had a famous story with Xiang Yu. 】

[In August of the fourth year of the Han Dynasty (203 BC), Peng Yue of Liang launched a harassment against the Chu soldiers and cut off their grain routes, and Xiang Yu led the army to snipe Peng Yue and returned.

At this time, Zhong Liwu was besieged by the Han army, and the Han army began to flee because they were afraid of Xiang Yu.

At this time, Han Xin, the king of Qi, began to lead his army to attack the Chu army again, and Xiang Yu began to feel afraid. As a result, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang set the famous "Gap and Peace" in history, that is, to divide the world by the "gap" of the canal built by Wei during the Warring States Period.

In September, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, led 100,000 Chu troops to withdraw to Chu by detouring the southern road and taking a circuitous route in the direction of Guling.

Liu Bang also wants to return west. 】

[However, just as Liu Bang was about to lead the army back to the west, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping suggested to Liu Bang to tear up the chasm and negotiate peace, and launch a sneak attack from behind when the Chu army was tired and returned eastward.

The reason of Zhang and Chen is: "Han has half of the world, and all the princes are attached to it." The Chu soldiers are exhausted, and when Chu dies on this day", it is suggested that "it is better to take it because of its opportunity".

Liu Bang was not a rule-abiding person in the first place, so he naturally adopted the advice of Zhang and Chen, tore up the agreement, and launched a surprise attack on the Chu army.

When the Han army pursued to southern Xia, Liu Bang gathered Han Xin and Peng Yue to jointly encircle the Chu army.

Because Han Xin and Peng Yue did not send troops to attack the Chu army as agreed, Liu Bang was defeated by Xiang Yu in Guling.

Liu Bang hurriedly led his army to retreat into Chenxia and built a fortress to hold out, while the Chu army once again surrounded Liu Bang.

Liu Bang, who insisted on the barrier, asked Zhang Liang: "The princes don't obey the agreement, what can they do?" ”

Zhang Liang replied: "The Chu soldiers are broken, and the letter and the more land are not divided, it is not suitable for consolidation." The king can share the world with him, and now he can be established. That is, no, things are not known. The king can be from Chen to the east of Fu Hai, all with Han Xin; North of Suiyang to Gucheng, in order to fight with Peng Yue: make each of them fight, then Chu is easy to lose. ”】

[Liu Bang adopted Zhang Liang's suggestion, quickly adjusted his strategy, and made a promise to Han Xin and Peng Yue to allow the division of the entire territory of Western Chu.

As a result, Liu Bang once again gained the support of Han Xin and Peng Yue, so a new round of battles between Chu and Han began.

Although there were still many princes at this time, the only princes in the Central Plains who had the strength to influence the battle situation were Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, Han Xin and Peng Yue.

And Liu Bang obtained the support of Han Xin and Peng Yue through the promise of allowing the division of the entire territory of Western Chu, and the situation became three to one, and Xiang Yu was undoubtedly at an absolute disadvantage. 】

[In late October of the fifth year of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), Guan Ying led troops to occupy Pengcheng and captured many areas of Chu at the same time.

After Han Xin, the king of Qi, reached peace talks with Liu Bang, the king of Han, he sent an infant irrigation department to launch an attack on Western Chu.

Guan Ying almost swept the hinterland of Western Chu this time, and also killed the Western Chu Kingdom, rushing all the way, and the Western Chu who hit directly had no power to fight back.

Xiang Yu also had to retreat strategically to avoid Liu Bang and others making dumplings.

When the main force of the Chu army returned, the army of Guan Ying had already killed the area of Yixiang east of Guling.

According to the records after the Infant Irrigation Department, it was "meeting Yixiang with the King of Han", that is, after killing a match, he avoided the Western Chu army and finally joined Liu Bang. 】

[Yingbu, who was named the king of Huainan by Liu Bang, also sent generals into the Jiujiang area, lured the defender and Chu Da Sima Zhou Yin, and then joined forces to attack the city father.

At the same time, Liu Bang also advanced eastward from Guling, and the situation was extremely unfavorable for the Chu army, and Xiang Yu was forced to retreat to the southeast.

In November, Xiang Yu retreated to the fortress, built a fort and set up camp, reorganized the troops, and restored the military strength, at this time the Chu army still had about 100,000 people. 】

[The Han army was led by Han Xinqin with 300,000 people as the main force, General Kong as the left wing, General Fei as the right wing, Liu Bang sat in the rear, and Zhou Bo, Chai Wu and other reserve troops were on standby behind Liu Bang's army. 】

[After the transfer of troops was completed, Han Xin led the front army to call the battle and led Xiang Yu to battle. After a fierce battle, Han Xin still lured the enemy with a feint and led his troops to retreat. 】

"Haha, sure enough, it's another trick to feint and lure the enemy!"

"But why can Han Xin's 'feint defeat and lure the enemy' succeed every time? It's a little too simple, isn't it? ”

"It's really a little simple, after all, there is no Fan Zeng by Xiang Yu's side at this time."

[The conceited and brave Xiang Yu blindly attacked fiercely, but unexpectedly chased to the ambush of the Han army on the left and right, and the flank of the Chu army was immediately attacked by the Han army.

At this time, Han Xin returned to the army to counterattack, and under the attack of the three-way Han army, Xiang Yu was caught off guard, lost most of the men and horses, and led the remnants back to the camp to hold on. 】

"It's a bit disappointing." When Ying Zheng saw this, he couldn't help but shake his head and commented: "Charging into battle and fighting alone, Xiang Yu may really be invincible in the world."

But if it comes to commanding the army to fight, he Xiang Yu may not even be worthy of giving Wang Jian and Bai Qi shoes. ”

After commenting on Xiang Yu, Ying Zheng began to comment on Han Xin again: "This Han Xin is also, and the most used is 'feint to lure the enemy' and 'sound east to attack west'.

But as long as his opponents are replaced by absolutely cautious and thoughtful celebrities like Wang Jian and Li Mu, he is afraid that he will not be able to reap the slightest benefit.

If he dares to continue to fight dangerously, maybe he will be defeated in the end! ”

"Did the history of later generations overestimate Xiang Yu, thus raising Han Xin in disguise?"

"Therefore, Su Shangshen ranked Han Xin before Wang Qian, and I still disagree."

[Han Xin won the first battle, but he was not in a hurry to attack, but led his army to surround the Chu army from all sides.

The surviving Chu army had no reinforcements outside, no grain and grass inside, and the situation was very miserable in the harsh winter.

At this moment, there were bursts of singing around the barracks.

When the soldiers heard the songs of their hometown, they instantly felt homesick, and all of them had no fighting spirit. 】

"Hmm" Ying Zheng stroked his beard and said, "Let's take back the above words for the time being, fortunately no one heard"

[Xiang Yu was also shocked when he heard Chu Ge, and he exclaimed in his heart: "Has the Han army already occupied Chu Land? Why are there so many Chu people in the army? ”

This night, Xiang Yu tossed and turned, borrowed wine in the tent to kill his sorrows, and said generously to Yu Ji beside him:

"Pull out the mountains and cover the world, and the times are not good.

What can I do if I don't die? Yu Xi Yu Xi Nao! ”

After singing, Xiang Yu burst into tears, and the soldiers around him couldn't cry. 】

Ying Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Alas, this feather actually messed with the army's heart, this is really indescribable."

[In the face of Han Xin's "embattled" plan, Xiang Yu's army has not yet gone to battle, and its morale has been defeated.

Xiang Yu knew that he could not defeat Han Xin, so he decided to lead more than 800 Jiangdong disciples under his command to break through at night. 】
