Please tell me the historical allusions of the Hongmen Banquet.

After Liu Bang captured Xianyang, he wanted to live in the palace. Fan Kuai and Sean advised him not to cling to the beautiful treasures in the palace if he wanted to win the world. Liu Bang accepted his suggestion, returned to the army and abolished Qin's harsh laws. He only made three chapters: "Murderer dies, wounding and stealing." Won the support of the Qin people.

Xiang Yu was very angry when he heard that Liu Bangxian had entered the customs. He led an army to break through Hangu Pass and came to Xianyang. In 206 BC, in 65438+February, 400,000 troops of Xiang Yu entered Xinfeng (now northeast of Lintong County, Shaanxi Province) and Hong Men (now Wang Ying, Dongxiang County, Lintong County). At that time, Liu Bang's army was only 6.5438+million, and its strength was lost to Xiang Yu. He listened to Sean's advice and went to Hong Men to meet Xiang Yu himself.

Liu bang deliberately confessed to Xiang Yu, and he was humble. Xiang Yu hosted a banquet for Liu Bang. Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu's counselor, wanted to kill Liu Bang and asked Xiang Zhuang (Xiang Yu's younger brother, a military commander) to perform sword dance and wait for an opportunity to assassinate him. Xiang Yu's uncle Xiang Bo used to have a good relationship with Sean. Seeing that the situation was not good, he drew his sword and danced to protect Liu Bang. After a while, Liu bang went back to Bashang from the alley on the pretext of going to the toilet.

After the "Hongmen Banquet", Xiang Yu led the troops into Xianyang, killed Zi Ying, the king of Qin, and burned Qin Gong, becoming the overlord of the place of Chu. He named Liu Bang Hanwang and lived in Bashu Hanzhong, while Zhang Han and others lived in Guanzhong.

Xiang Yu enfeoffed governors and enfeoffed many people close to him around Pengcheng to consolidate the alliance. However, many other governors were dissatisfied with their fiefs, and the contradiction became increasingly prominent.

Soon, Tian Rong, the general of Qi, first opposed Xiang Yu and established himself as the king of Qi. Peng Yue had more than 10000 soldiers at the bottom of the beam, but he didn't get any points. He hated Xiang Yu, and Tian Rong joined forces with Peng Yue. Chen Yu refused to accept that Zhang Er was named Changshan King, and joined forces with Tian Rong to drive out Zhang Er and become Changshan King. The warlord melee broke out again.

Liu Xiang encounters.

Liu Bang, who was forced by Xiang Yu to a corner of Bashu Hanzhong, adopted Xiao He's strategy to recruit talents in Hanzhong and run Bashu as a base. In May 206 BC, Xiang Yu went to attack Tian Rong. Liu Bang took the opportunity to send troops, and 1 month occupied all Guanzhong. Then he pushed eastward and headed for Cheng Peng, Xiang Yu's lair. The Chu-Han War broke out.

From 206 BC to 202 BC, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought for five years, fighting more than 70 times and skirmishing more than 40 times. At the same time, Han Xin was sent north to rectify Zhao Jiwei and other places, opening up a second front. United with other governors, wooed Peng Yue, Ying Bu and others, isolated Xiang Yu, and finally gradually turned into an advantage.

Final decisive battle

In the absence of allies, Xiang Yu reluctantly proposed to divide the world with Liu Bang, with the gorge (now Jia Luhe, Henan Province) as the boundary, and the east of the river belongs to Chu and the west to Han. However, following the advice of his subordinates, Liu Bang joined forces with the generals at the end of 203 BC and surrounded Xiang Yu in Gaixia (now southeast of Lingbi County, Anhui Province). Xiang Yu ran out of food and the reinforcements were cut off. On a cold winter night, Xiang Yu was surrounded by a hill and saw flags, drums and horns everywhere on the battlefield. Xiang Yu knew that the morale of the army was lax and the tide was gone, so he had to bid farewell to his concubine Yu Ji and seize the road to break through overnight.

After dawn, Liu Bang heard the news and immediately sent 5000 cavalry to catch up. Xiang Yu crossed the Huaihe River, leaving only 100 people.

The Han army caught up and killed only 28 down archers of Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu ran to the edge of Wujiang River, only to see the endless Wujiang River in front of him and the rolling army behind him. Desperate, he drew his sword and committed suicide.

In June 202 BC, Liu Bang unified China and established the Han Dynasty. Liu Bang is the emperor (that is, Emperor Gaozu).

The dispute between Chu and Han directly evolved from the peasant war at the end of Qin dynasty, but its nature was completely different. Under the social conditions at that time, although the peasant war successfully overthrew the old feudal dynasty, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, the former leaders of the peasant war, had to take the old road of feudal rule and turned into contenders for feudal sovereignty. In this competition, Xiang Yu had a strong sense of old nobility, was not good at employing people, and could not rebuild the unified dynasty. Liu Bang knew that people were good at their duties, guided by the situation, and finally defeated Xiang Yu and ascended the throne of the Western Han Emperor.

It is said that the "Chuhe Han Jie" in China chess evolved from this struggle.
