The massacre of 20,000 Tan troops after Qin Shihuang died

West Fan Wang Xiang Yu was the one who ended the Qin consecutive series of victories in the battle against rebel forces, laying the foundation to end the Qin after Qin Shihuang died.

In 210 BC, Qin Shihuang, the first emperor of China died of violence. The second child Ho Ho was brought up to the throne by the eunuch Trieu Cao and Li Yan.

The image of West Fan Wang Xiang Yu in Chinese dramas.

The Second World had no talent as an outstanding father, and did not manage to resolve the indignation of the peasants, making rebellion everywhere.

Within a year, a series of vassal states like the former Warring States period were restored, such as the Department, Zhao, Yen, Wei and Qi.

Qin Nhi The appointed Chuong Ham to be the marshal, with the generals Vuong Ly, Tu Ma Han, Dong Ei, To Giac and Thiep Nhan carrying the army.

In just a few months, Chuong Ham won the battle like a split bamboo, turning the face between Qin and the vassals. It was Chapter Ham who killed Liang's uncle, Liang's uncle.

Because of the thought that the Department was no longer ominous, Chuong Ham turned to fight the Trieu state, causing Trieu Vuong Yet to flee to Cu Loc (Figure Dai, Ha Bac province today) and to help vassal states.

Xiang Yu broke the Qin army

In the context of more than 20 thousand troops of the Qin Dynasty's Ly Dynasty besieged Cu Loc citadel, the 20,000,000 main forces of Chuong Ham played a supporting role, not a single force of the tributary countries dared to intervene.

But Xiang Yu was the one who made the difference, beating the Qin army 9 wins over all 9, cutting off the road of salary of Chuong Ham for Vuong Ly. The army of the Department of military forces all the vassals.

The troops of the vassals who came to rescue Cu Loc played close to more than 10 barracks, but no one dared to bring troops to fight. When the Department of War fought the Qin army, the vassals stood on the wall and looked. According to the historical records of Sima Qian, the soldiers of the Department of State were able to fight against one person against ten people.

At the end of the Cu Loc battle, Xiang Yu destroyed the Qin army, killed To Giac and captured Vuong Ly; Self-immolation cards die. After the defeat of this decision, the main army of the Qin by Chapter Command became passive, collapsed.

Xiang Yu is the one with the most meritorious effort to destroy Qin army.

Do not receive the support of the Qin king Qin Nhi The, Chuong Ham because of fear of rank of Yu Yu but surrendered and surrendered his life, and generals under authority and 20,000,000 Qin troops to rank Yu decided.

According to historical records, tens of thousands of Qinmen soldiers who ordered goods on the escort were abusive. But because of being a prisoner, wanting to preserve their lives, they could only endure patience.

When I arrived in Tan An, the mood of 20,000 Qin prisoners was very complicated. The history of the historian Sima Qian in the Han Dynasty has been recorded:

"The General of Qin Dynasty has many people stealing with each other: The chieftains of the chieftains we surrender to vassals, so now they can only enter the gate of the Qin Kingdom.

If you can beat the Qin Dynasty, it is very good, otherwise the vassals will force us to bring them to the east, and Qin will also kill our parents and wives and children. "

The generals listened to what they were talking about, bringing them back to Class Vu. The rank of Vu called his father and Bo General, saying:

"General Qin Qin still crowded, their abdomen did not submit to me, they went to Guanzhong but they did not follow me. The big thing would be dangerous, just by killing them, only keeping Chapter Ham, the chief of Han, Lieutenant để to join us. Land Qin only ".

In fact, after escorting prisoners to Tan An citadel, 20,000 Tan troops mysteriously disappeared. Because if 20 thousand troops were not destroyed, perhaps Xiang Yu could not enter Qin land, killing Qin Wang burned everything so easily.

Anecdotes buried alive 20,000 lives Qin

The fact that the West Division of Xiang Yu kills tens of thousands of Qin prisoners without the history of Chinese records.

Anecdote states that Xiang Yu secretly planned to kill all the prisoners, by forcing them to dig a large hole.

West Fan Xiang Yu is known to be a hermit, tyranny and refuses to listen to anyone.

In the west of Tan An citadel at that time, there was a very large suburban grassland. Xiang Yu immediately ordered 20 thousand prisoners to dig deep holes, so that they themselves were buried alive in that hole without any way to escape.

Those who tried to escape were cut to death and threw their bodies into the deep hole they dug out.

Today, the mass grave of the Qin army is often mentioned near Nghia Ma commune, Henan province, China. In this area, four directions have flat grasses like those recorded.

As noted in 1912, during the renovation of the rail system in the region. The workers unearthed many white skeletons. That may be the 20 thousand remains of the Qin army killed by Xiang Yu in the past.

Through decades of Chinese civil war, the relics and other remains are not excavated or preserved.

The event of Vu Vu buried alive with 20,000 troops was considered one of the bloodiest massacres in Chinese history.

This event is compared to the death of 45,000 million troops of General Zhao's White Army at the Battle of the Warring States School.
