If the sword of Hongmen Banquet falls, where will history go?
His name is Xiang Yu.
In history textbooks, he is called a "tragic hero"——
During the four years of conflict between Chu and Han, the powerful overlord of Western Chu was trapped in Gaixia, trapped in Wujiang River, and trapped in "Heaven is going to destroy me".
The knife did not fall. Liu Bang ran away. Then the world became surnamed Han.
For two thousand years, everyone has said: Xiang Yu lost because he was too arrogant, because he was too straightforward, and because he did not understand people's hearts.
But no one asked -
What if his knife really cuts down?
What if he not only killed Liu Bang, but also listened to all Fan Zeng's advice?
What if he was not a foolhardy warrior, but a true emperor?
This book is that "if".
Xiang Yu personally killed Liu Bang at the Hongmen Banquet, and then——
When Han Xin came to join him, he directly accepted him as a general, regardless of his background or probation period.
Fan Zeng burst into tears: Father, I have been waiting for this day for twenty years.
Zhang Liang visited the thatched cottage three times, seeking the saints and returning to his heart, and presented the blueprint for destroying Qin and establishing the country.
The 600,000 Qin army surrendered, and he was not trapped, so he was incorporated into his direct lineage.
The world was divided and all the princes were convinced, and no one dared to rebel.
After proclaiming himself emperor, he was not called the "Overlord of Chu" - he directly wore the clothes of the Yellow Emperor, sat on the dragon's throne, and governed the country using the system of prefectures and counties.
Do you think this is a cool article?
No. This is just the beginning.
This time, he is not a loser eliminated by history.
He is the one who rewrites history.
You ask about the ending?
Xiang Yu reigned for forty years.
The territory of the empire: reached the sea in the east, Parthia in the west, the North Sea in the north, and Nanyang in the south.
His temple name is not "Overlord of Western Chu" - it is "Emperor Shengwu".
If history happens like this, do you want to know what China will look like later?
