At the hongmen banquet, why did xiang yu give Fan Kuai a leg of pork?

Today, the Hongmen Banquet over 2,000 years ago is probably one of the most famous dinners in China. After all, people still talk about this word a lot. There are records about the Hongmen banquet in history. Xiang Yu ordered his men to give Fan Kuai a pig leg, which was raw. Fan Kuai didn't frown and ate directly. There is no doubt that why did Xiang Yu give Fan Kuai a leg of pork?

First, Xiang Yu naturally wanted to spite Fan Kuai. After all, Xiang Yu gave Fan Kuai a piece of raw meat, and it was also leg meat. It is conceivable how hard this leg meat is to bite, so it is still a question whether Fan Kuai can bite it. Plus, raw meat will be raw no matter how you eat it, and it will smell bad in his mouth. Who can guarantee that there is blood on this leg?

Secondly, Xiang Yu just wanted to take the opportunity to test whether Fan Kuai was really a warrior and a threat to himself. Because the purpose of this banquet is to lay hands on Liu Bang, Xiang Zhuang invited Fan Zeng to come forward and perform a program for them. Xiang Bo saw Xiang Zhuang's intention and tried to stop his behavior. At this moment, Fan Kuai appeared. Facing his sudden intrusion into the banquet, Xiang Yu got a fright and was worried by Fan Kuai's various performances.

After all, Fan Kuai is a participant of Liu Bang, that is, a coachman and a guard. In the case of Liu Bangyou's men, he hesitated to attack Liu Bang. After Xiang Yu gave Fan Kuai the pork leg, who would have thought that Fan Kuai put the shield on the ground, put the meat on the shield, drew his sword and cut it down directly without hesitation, and ate it all. This behavior immediately made Xiang Yu have the idea of not killing Liu Bang, and Liu Bang was able to escape smoothly.
