The Fall of Chu: from Xiang Yu to Han Xin
by Li Kaiyuan
About This Novel
Sima Qian's "Historical Records" wrote the eternal masterpiece of the Chu-Han conflict. In that era where heroes emerged in large numbers, it only took eight years from the time when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up to fight for supremacy among the nations, and then to the unification of the Han Dynasty. Xiang Yu was twenty-four when he joined his uncle Xiang Liang in Kuaiji, but he committed suicide in Wujiang when he was only thirty-one. In the past eight years, scenes of historical drama have been filled with songs and tears, and they have experienced a series of major turning points such as the collapse of Qin, the fall of Chu, and the rise of Han. Finally, more than five hundred years of melee and conquest have stabilized, and Chinese history has ushered in the heyday of the Western Han Dynasty.
