Liu Bang’s cemetery is surrounded by mountains and rivers. Why is Xiang Yu’s cemetery unattended and overgrown with weeds?
After four years of fighting between Chu and Han, Xiang Yu committed suicide in Wujiang River and was completely defeated. However, Liu Bang inherited Qin Shihuang's unified pattern, owned the world, and created a four-hundred-year-old empire. Han Dynasty. Liu Bang's cemetery, his tomb is called Changling, occupying an entire mountain peak. Xiang Yu's cemetery is in Shandong, and his cemetery is in Dongping, southwest of Jinan. The tombstone was damaged and almost all the words on the tombstone were invisible. No one came to clean it, and many people even left the tombstone. Stone bricks were brought home to build a house. Liu Bang was a king, so his cemetery was naturally better than Xiang Yu's.
Xiang Yu’s famous book, courtesy name Yu, is a fortune teller under the Si River. Brave and martial, after Xiang Liang was killed in battle, he led his army across the river to rescue King Zhao Xie. In the Battle of Julu, he defeated the main force of the Qin army led by Zhang Han and Wang Li, and led the army to destroy the Qin state. He claimed to be the overlord of Western Chu, and established his capital in Pengcheng. He granted great titles to the generals who had contributed to the destruction of Qin, and established the descendants of the nobles of the six countries as kings. In 202 BC, Xiang Yu retreated to Gaixia and broke through Wujiang. In the end, the overlord bid farewell to his concubine and committed suicide by the Wujiang River.
Liu Bang, courtesy name Ji, was a native of Zhongyangli, Fengyi, Pei County. Born in a peasant family, he is open-minded and has no business in production. When he first served in the Qin Dynasty, he was appointed as the pavilion chief of Sishui in Peixian County. He released prisoners and died in Mangdang Mountain. After Chen Sheng's uprising, he gathered three thousand disciples to respond, captured Peixian County, and called himself Peigong. He led his army to Bashang, accepted the surrender of Qin Prince Ying, and destroyed the Qin Dynasty. Abolish the harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty and make three chapters of the law to win people's hearts. After the Hongmen Banquet, he was named King of Han and ruled Bashu and Hanzhong.
If Xiang Yu can be as shameless as Liu Bang in history, then maybe his ending will be different if he endures for a while longer. After Xiang Yu's death, Liu Bang quickly occupied the entire territory, but he still could not achieve the same heroic spirit as Xiang Yu. Because in his heart he always knew that although his face looked beautiful, there were actually many crises.
