Why did Xiang Yu, the hero of World War I, end up betraying his relatives and friends?

When it comes to Xiang Yu, I'm afraid no one doesn't know him. He is an epic hero. If a young man sets his goal high, he will surely achieve great success. When the Qin Dynasty was in crisis, he led 8,000 troops in Jiangdong to sweep the world and overthrew the Qin Dynasty. In his twenties, he became the overlord of Chu and was admired by the world. So why on earth will it lead to the unfaithful ending when fighting for the world with Liu Bang? Why did Ying Bu and Lu Bu, once outlaws, take refuge in Liu Bang, and why did a generation of heroes end up in Wujiang River?

First: Xiang Yu's cruelty. I think everyone knows this. Although Xiang Yu is invincible in the world, he treats Jiangdong's children like brothers, but he doesn't treat other surrendered soldiers very well. According to historical records, the officers and men of the vassals pursued their victory, enslaved them and humiliated the officers and men of Qin. Xiang Yu often made his men humiliate Qin Jun to surrender, and because several soldiers gossiped and were afraid that they would betray themselves, Xiang Yu killed 200,000 Qin Jun and surrendered. You know, 200 thousand is not a small sum. If Xiang Yu wants to conquer the world, he must convince the world that they must lose the hearts of the people and lead to final failure.

Second: light the virtuous and slow the scholars. Xiang Yu himself is brave enough to be a hero in the world. As we know, Han Xin, the general, was once a subordinate of Xiang Yu, and Han Xin, the humble doctor, put forward his views to Xiang Yu many times and reminded him that only in this way can we reduce our casualties and get the maximum benefits. At that time, Xiang Yu also laughed at him as a nobody who didn't understand the general trend of the world. A few years later, he was the biggest enemy to kill himself, and he regretted it.

Third: Suspicious by nature. In the war between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng was the only think tank in the Chu army. His strategy is unparalleled, cruel and evil, and even Sean admires him. At the beginning of 204 BC, the Chu army cut off the grain road of the Han army several times, and Liu Bang was trapped in Xingyang, so he made peace with Xiang Yu. Chen Ping, Liu Bang's counselor, seized Xiang Yu's suspicious and arrogant characteristics and used a double agent. Alienate Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng.

So Xiang Yu alienated Fan Zeng, thinking that he was plotting with Liu Bang, and finally forced Fan Zeng away. Fan Zeng, however, is a veteran of the Chu army. He was the father of Xiang Yu, who first followed Xiang Liang out of the mountain for great cause! Unfortunately, Xiang Yu would rather believe the rumors circulating outside than his father who followed him for many years. Coupled with his suspicious personality, the last two people broke up in discord. This incident also caused many generals in the Chu army to lose heart and leave Xiang Yu to take refuge in Liu Bang. The morale of the Chu army was gone.

The above three points are the important reasons why Xiang Yu became a loner. In the dispute between Chu and Han, Xiang Yu was cruel to the soldiers and lost the hearts of the people because of his arrogance. Coupled with his disregard for virtue and suspicious nature, his brothers who had fought and died in battle left him one by one. Finally, Wujiang committed suicide and a generation of heroes fell!
