"The Last Stand, also known as the Battle of Jingxing, took place in the third year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. The Han army and the Zhao army fought at Jingxing. This was a battle in which life emerged from a desperate situation, and it was also a battle in which a small number defeated a large number."

"The military strength of the two countries is very poor. Zhao Chen Yu's team has about 10,000+ soldiers, while Han Xin's team has insufficient soldiers, with only more than 3 soldiers, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers."

"How do the two countries compare? One has almost no combat power, while the other has strong military strength and is in an advantageous and proactive position."

"Perhaps it was also because the difference in military strength was so large that Zhao Jun, who thought he could win, began to become arrogant."

"Before the war, Li Zuoche gave Chen Yu a plan. He asked him to lead an army of [-] people to cut off Han Xin's food route from a small road, and then asked Chen Yu not to fight Han Xin. Han Xin would be defeated in less than ten days. , but Chen Yu didn't listen to this strategy. Chen Yu thought that he had more troops and a better location, so he didn't need to use sneak attacks to defeat Han Xin."

"Chen Yu not only didn't listen, but also didn't know how to take advantage of the natural location of Jingxing. Jingxing is a narrow passage into Zhao State. This road cannot be passed by two horses side by side, which means it is very narrow. For such terrain, The best way was to ambush the troops so that they could not see each other, but Chen Yu did not do any of this."

"Han Xin sent people to constantly inquire about the news, and also learned that Chen Yu did not adopt Li Zuoche's strategy. Through constant reconnaissance, Han Xin learned that Chen Yu did not send an ambush or any blocking force. This was tantamount to letting Han Xin pass through Jingxing. .”

"Under this situation, Han Xin formed an array with his back to the water and based on the tactical thinking of "putting death before survival, risking death before survival", he successfully defeated Zhao Wangxie, who had many times the number of soldiers than himself."

"After this battle, Han Xin became famous in one fell swoop, and the battle was recorded in history forever."

"The Last Stand at that time was very dangerous, and the process was beyond my description in words. Whenever there was a mistake, Han Xin was the one who failed in the end. It was Chen Yu's stupidity that made Han Xin's Last Stand a thousand-year-old reputation."

Zhu Yuanzhang: I remember that there were no troops left in the Zhao camp at that time!

Liu Che: So Chen Yu is extremely stupid. A general doesn’t even have a brain. In any war, it is impossible to put all the troops into the war until the critical moment. Unless the winner can be determined immediately, this is military common sense. I don’t even understand such a simple truth, I want to know how this guy became a general!
Liu Xie: In addition, Chen Yu did not accept Li Zuoche's suggestion. It was Han Xin who blamed Chen Yu for his inaction, so he dared to come up with such a bold strategy.

Yang Jian: Whenever Li Zuoche's strategy is adopted and people are kept in the military camp, Han Xin will be the loser. This is really arrogant!

Zhao Kuangyin: The most critical reason for the success of the Last Stand is the stupidity of his opponent Chen Yu. Only when the strategic differences between the enemy and our coaches are relatively large can success be possible. Han Xin's opponent is Chen Yu, so he can succeed. If Han Xin's opponent is Li If you drive left, the result will be different!

"Han Xin's strategy cannot be ignored. It is interconnected and attracts the main force of the Zhao army to the river. Then he seizes the camp with both hands and secret hands, and then cooperates with the outside to defeat the Zhao army. In the end, it succeeds. The whole process cannot be replicated because of time. , space, and opponents cannot be copied, and of course no one can succeed a second time.”

"Capturing Wei, breaking the dynasty, destroying Zhao, and later subduing Yan and conquering Qi, Han Xin has become a war god."

"At this time, Liu Bang began to be afraid of Han Xin, but Liu Bang was very scheming. At this time, many knowledgeable people saw that Han Xin was the person who controlled the overall situation. If he established himself as king, the world would be divided into three parts. How could Liu Bang let Han Xin If you take it away from him, you will be given a special title and promoted to a noble rank, as befitting a good brother."

"Don't tell me, it worked. It directly made Han Xin more loyal. Everyone knew whoever wins over Han Xin would win, and Xiang Yu was no exception. In the end, the eloquent Wu She was invited to lobby Han Xin, but regardless of Wu She After Wu She left, Han Xin's confidant Kuai Che also came to persuade him, but in the end he failed to persuade Han Xin."

"It was because of Han Xin's stay that the Han Dynasty was established!"

"Liu Bang was exhausted mentally and physically due to repeated defeats, so he proposed to "divide the world in the middle" to make peace with Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu agreed and sent Liu Bang's father and wife back to Han camp."

"However, under the advice of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, Liu Bang took advantage of Xiang Yu's retreat to the east to suddenly launch an offensive, and at the same time asked Han Xin and Peng Nan to go down to encircle the Chu army. However, Liu Bang advanced impatiently and was ultimately defeated."

"Facing the God of War Xiang Yu, who defeated the Qin army of more than 3 troops with 56 troops in the Battle of Julu, and defeated [-] Han troops in the Battle of Pengcheng with [-] troops, everyone believed that only Han Xin was Xiang Yu's A real rival."

"Liu Bang asked Han Xin to be the commander-in-chief of the Han army, commanding an army of 70 men and Xiang Yu's 10 troops to PK. This was also a decisive battle in the Chu-Han War - the Battle of Nuclear Forces!"

"After the Liu Xiang family negotiated peace at Honggou, Liu Bang betrayed his trust and launched a sudden strategic attack on the Chu army, and made an appointment with Han Xin to pursue Xiang Yu together. After getting Liu Bang's promise to make him King of Qi, Han Xin personally led 30 people to defeat the Chu army. Under the Gaixia."

"On the eve of the war, Liu Bang proposed peace due to repeated defeats, divided the world equally with Xiang Yu, and signed the "Gulf Covenant."

"Xiang Yu returned Liu Bang's family members as agreed and led his troops back east. However, when returning west, Liu Bang, on the advice of his advisers, broke the contract and attacked the Chu army in Guling."

"" As a result, Overlord Xiang Yu became angry and Liu Bang suffered a disastrous defeat. He had to stick to the isolated city and asked General Han Xin for help again. "

"Since the Han army went to war, Han Xin has been victorious in every battle. Not only did he not receive any rewards, but the land and troops he won in each battle were taken away by Liu Bang."

"However, the ambitious Han Xin did not care about personal gains and losses, and always adhered to the moral principles in his heart. When he received the order, he immediately sent [-] troops, regardless of past grudges, to go south to relieve the siege, and captured Xiang Yu's capital Pengcheng in one fell swoop with thunderous momentum, forcing the Chu army to panic Withdraw the troops and relieve the siege of Guling."

"At this time, Han Xin and other Han generals joined forces with Liu Bang one after another. The Han army, which had doubled in strength, was like a rainbow and pursued the Chu army all the way to Gaixia."

"Liu Bang then handed over the military power to Han Xin and gave him full power to command the war. Han Xin once said that he would lead "the more troops, the better." This time he had 70 troops and finally had the opportunity to truly display his ability to lead troops and deliver a fatal blow to the Chu army. "

"One is a king who can carry a cauldron and is so domineering, and the other is a soldier who anticipates the enemy's opportunities and uses his troops like a god."

"The years after the fall of the Qin Dynasty were not so much the imperial struggle between Chu and Han, but the wonderful showdown between Xiang Yu and Han Xin. The Battle of Gaixia finally brought a powerful end to this period of history."
