Liu Bang and the Battle of Gaixia: Founding the Han Dynasty
Om avsnittet
In this episode, we explore the life of Liu Bang, the peasant-born founder of the Han Dynasty, and his climactic victory over the rival general Xiang Yu at the Battle of Gaixia in 202 BCE. We trace Liu Bang's rise from a village head to rebel leader, the strategic genius of his advisor Han Xin, and the dramatic siege that ended the Chu-Han Contention. Along the way, we discuss the Feast at Hongmen, the loyalty of key followers like Zhang Liang, and how Liu Bang's humble origins shaped his governing philosophy. This is the origin story of China's first golden age, a tale of ambition, betrayal, and the forging of a dynasty that would last over four centuries.
