History live broadcast: the beginning is Qin Shihuang's live broadcast of the subjugation of th

""Control others but not control them" has always been Xiang Yu's principle of military use. In order to gain the initiative in the decisive battle, he chose Gaixia."

"Gaixia, there is a solitary mountain in the middle, with abundant water resources and plains on all sides, which is very conducive to the Chu army's advantage in field battles. Xiang Yu also stocked up grain and grass here to wait for the arrival of the princes' soldiers."

"Liu Bang brought more than 20 troops, Han Xin brought 30 troops. Peng Yue brought 20 troops. Yingbu, Liu Jia, and Zhou Yin brought more than [-] troops in total. Zhao and Yan also sent troops to support. All these troops That adds up to nearly a million people.”

"Liu Bang spent a lot of effort to gather these millions of troops, but he also became worried when facing the unfavorable battlefield in Gaixia."

"When it comes to field battles, the reputation of the Chu army goes without saying. Back then, Xiang Yu's 5 troops defeated the Qin army's 40 troops in the Battle of Julu, and 3 troops wiped out Liu Bang's 56 troops in the Battle of Pengcheng. No one in the world can compete with them, but now Xiang Yu still has 10 people, how should we fight this decisive battle of life and death?"

"At this critical moment, all the counselors were helpless. Only Han Xin took on the important task of planning Liu Bang's layout, and an ambush from all sides began."

"Han Xin was the front army, and the 30 men were divided into three parts. Han Xin led the 10 Chinese army at the front.
General Kong's 10 people are on the left, and General Fei's 10 people are on the right. The three armies are in a pin-shaped array.

Liu Bang had more than 20 troops behind him, which served as the rear barrier for Han Xin's army.The two armies joined together, concentrated their strength, and formed a formation in front of the Chu army. "

"Peng Yue's army, Ying Bu's army, Liu Jia's army, and Zhou Yin's army were on the other three sides, encircling the Chu army."

"This layout of "uniting within division, uniting with division" maximizes the advantage of the coalition's large number of troops. Among them, the four armies of Peng Yue, Yingbu, Liu Jia, and Zhou Yin played a role in containing the strength of the Chu army and cutting off the Chu army's backup. Function. Han Xin and Liu Bang, the two armies concentrated their strength to avoid the tragedy of the Battle of Pengcheng being defeated by the Chu army one by one."

"Xiang Yu was shocked by the layout in front of him. This humble halberd wielder could actually set up such a battle formation! However, this did not scare Xiang Yu, but instead aroused his desire to break the formation."

"According to Xiang Yu's vision, the Chu army's field combat capabilities are unrivaled in the world. One can be equal to ten. It will be easy to defeat Han Xin's Chinese army."

"There is a saying that goes, "To take the enemy by surprise, attack them unprepared." It was obvious that Han Xin was fully prepared, which reduced Xiang Yu's probability of success to less than 50%. This was bound to be a war in which the outcome was unpredictable.

"Everything was ready, and the Chu army launched a surprise attack. Xiang Yu personally led the strongest soldiers into Han Xin's center and fought with Han Xin's [-] warriors."

"Although the Chu army is advantageous in field battles, the opponent Han Xin uses wheel fighting. The final result of this peak showdown is that both sides suffered losses and it was a draw."

"With this result, Liu Bang's side naturally cheered for joy. This is a long-lost victory."

"For the Chu army, their energy was frustrated and their morale was low. In Xiang Yu's eyes, there is no draw. Failure to defeat the opponent means failure."

"Xiang Yu did not give up because of this. He continued to study the situation and tried to turn defeat into victory. In the current situation, Xiang Yu has no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside. How can he turn defeat into victory?"

"Fate did not side with Xiang Yu. He failed, but how could a generation of Western Chu overlords accept his defeat?" "The war never subsided. After the battle, Han Xin directly had people surround him. Knowing that at this time Xiang Yu was almost in desperation. In order to better win the war, Han Xin resorted to another plan at this time - he was surrounded on all sides!"

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

"The surviving Chu army had no reinforcements outside, no food and grass inside, and the harsh winter, and their situation was very miserable. Suddenly, bursts of Chu songs came from around the military camp. When the soldiers heard the songs of their hometown, they instantly felt homesick. No fighting spirit at all.”

"Before the battle, morale has been defeated. This is Han Xin's psychological tactic of being "embattled on all sides". Xiang Yu knew that he could not defeat Han Xin, so he decided to lead more than 800 Jiangdong disciples to break out at night."

"At dawn, the Han army discovered that Xiang Yu had escaped. Guan Ying was ordered to lead 100 Han troops to pursue him. Along the way, Xiang Yu and the Han army fought fiercely and continued to lose troops. When they reached the Huaihe River, only more than 28 people followed him. When he was misled by farmers and fell into a swamp, he There are only [-] knights left."

"Xiang Yu had a premonition that he would not be spared, so he stopped escaping and said to his soldiers: "It has been eight years since I started the army and I have fought more than 70 battles. I have won every battle and conquered every attack. Only then have I come to dominate the world.I am trapped here today. It is God who wants to kill me, and it is not the fault of the battle. "

"He also said that if he was really doomed to die today, he would fight to the end, defeat the three Han armies in a row, and help the soldiers break out. The Han army soon caught up and surrounded them heavily. Xiang Yu remained calm, divided the soldiers into four teams, and prepared to attack Attack from all sides.”

"Xiang Yu and the Chu army made an appointment to meet at three places on the opposite hillside. He shouted: "I will capture a Han general for you!"

"He took the lead and rushed into the Han army's formation. He quickly killed a Han general as if he was in an uninhabited area. He then galloped in the army and killed dozens of Han soldiers. He entered and exited three times, as promised. He rendezvoused with the Chu army in three places, and the Chu army beside him only lost two people. These 20 people all admired Xiang Yu's bravery."

The Chu army fled all the way to the Wujiang River. The chief of the Wujiang Pavilion had been waiting by boat for a long time. He asked Xiang Yu to quickly cross the river to escape, return to his hometown, and wait for the opportunity to make a comeback. But Xiang Yu said: "God wants to destroy me, why should I cross the river? In the past, there were eight thousand rivers east of the river. My children followed me to fight, and now none of them have returned, so how can I face the Jiangdong elders?"

"He presented the Wuzui horse that had protected him through life and death for many years to the chief of the pavilion, and asked the soldiers to dismount and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the pursuing Han army.

In the melee, Xiang Yu met an old friend and said to him: "I heard that Liu Bang spent a lot of money to buy my head, so I might as well give it to you as a favor!" After that, the King of Chu committed suicide. "

"After the Battle of Gaixia, the troubled times of feudal lords fighting for hegemony finally came to an end, and the new unified dynasty of China came with it. In this turbulent era, Han Xin played an important role in conquering the world, and Xiang Yu's heroic spirit of conquering mountains and rivers will always be remembered by future generations. .”

"Han Xin finally brought peace to the world for Liu Bang. Looking at the "Controversy between Chu and Han", Han Xin is the real decisive figure."

"Most of the victories won by the Han army were commanded by Han Xin, while Liu Bang's army suffered repeated defeats. At critical moments, Han Xin had to rely on Han Xin to turn things around."

"Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was deeply afraid of Han Xin's talent and offered Han Xin the title of king many times. However, Han Xin always refused because he was grateful for Liu Bang's kindness."
