How can a "spoils sharing conference" tear the world apart?After destroying Qin, why didn't Xiang Yu proclaim himself emperor?How will Xiang Yu divide the feudal lords?Should the descendants of the Xiang family be given priority, or should heroes with different surnames be given priority?Should he kill Liu Bang to avoid future troubles, or should he abide by the agreement and seal the king of Guanzhong?Should the capital be established in Pengcheng or moved to Guanzhong?
First of all, the opening ceremony of Xiang Yu's enfeoffment was very prosperous because he really set off a fire.
After a short rest, Xiang Yu led his troops to take over Xianyang.In Xianyang, Xiang Yu mainly did the following things: massacre Xianyang, burning palaces, killing children and infants, and annihilating clans. His hatred and hostility towards the Qin Dynasty aroused Xiang Yu's evil thoughts of destruction deep in his heart.
Chou against Qin is one of the important contents of Xiang Yu's life value orientation. Qin destroyed six kingdoms, and Chu people believed that Chu was the most unjust. King Huai of Chu died in Qin, and Xiang Yan was killed in the Great Patriotic War. The slogan "Although Chu has three households, Chu will surely destroy Qin" has been circulated in Chu land.
As a descendant of the aristocrats of the Chu Kingdom, the strong feeling of the destruction of the country and the death of the family is naturally unforgettable. Therefore, Xiang Yu has planted an irreconcilable hatred towards the Qin people since he was a child.
Understanding his mentality can understand his various behaviors after entering Qin. He treated everything related to the Qin Dynasty brutally. He seemed to want to eliminate all information and traces related to Qin in reality. It seemed that only in this way could he heal the pain in his heart.Ziying, who finally managed to save his life from Liu Bang's ax, could not escape the fate of being a subjugated king.
Ziying showed outstanding ability in the plan to get rid of Zhao Gao. If he had come to power two years earlier, he might have been able to turn the tide. Unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time. He only became the king for 46 days and became the scapegoat of the Qin Dynasty. He escaped Liu Bang's murderous intention, but did not escape Xiang Yu's butcher knife.
Following Xiang Yu's order, heads fell to the ground one after another, and fires shot up into the sky, lighting up the dark night sky and the pale, frightened, and desperate faces of the people in Guanzhong.After several years of fighting, at the end, it was not the peace that everyone in the world expected, but a disaster.The fire in Xianyang City lasted for March, with black smoke and black clouds, covering the sky and the sun. All the beautiful palace buildings that the whole country regarded as sacred and solemn were burned to the ground and reduced to ashes.The huge complex of buildings built by Qin Shihuang in imitation of the palaces of the Six Kingdoms is no longer visible to human eyes, and the city of Xianyang is filled with darkness, gloom, and a chilling atmosphere.
When it comes to burning the Qin Palace, it is necessary to clarify a misinformation that has been circulating for thousands of years - Xiang Yu burned the Epang Palace.This was made up by Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty, and the real Afang Palace was never built.The truth of the matter is that Xiang Yu did not burn Epang Palace. The reason is very simple. Epang Palace was a half-finished project, and even the front hall was not completed.
Archaeologists found only a few red-burnt earth relics in the 200,000-square-meter exploration area of the Afang Palace front hall site. They did not find large areas of red-burnt earth, plant ashes, or tile fragments. These should have been the remains left after the building was burned by fire.
After the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Yu became famous. It was the most glorious period in his life. After burning, killing and looting the capital Xianyang, and expressing the resentment against the violent Qin that had been stored in his chest for many years, Xiang Yu felt a little hesitant and confused. After thinking over and over again, he decided to return eastward with the gold and silver treasures and beautiful women he had collected from Xianyang.
As a native of Chu, Xiang Yu has very strong feelings for his hometown. He misses the mountains and rivers of his hometown.At this moment, Xiang Yu is like a wage earner who has worked hard for many years outside. After making money outside, he just wants to go home, build a house and marry a wife.As for Xianyang City, it has no attraction to Xiang Yu at all.
Before going home, Xiang Yu has to accomplish a major event. The Qin Empire has been destroyed. Who will be the master of the world?What kind of governance is practiced?This was indeed a headache at the time, because Xiang Yu had four options in front of him.
One is the Western Zhou Dynasty model.This model is "Emperor + Princes", choosing an emperor as the co-lord of the world, and he will divide the princes.
