Yes. it's a great source of wisdom. I am working on an analysis of Xiangyu and why he lost. Xiangyu was reputedly a fearsome warrior. He was also a man of "honour" at times. eg. at the feast of hongmen "鴻門宴" refusing to go along with Fan Zeng's plan of killing Liu Bang - a decision which came back to haunt him. I've come to have respect for this type of character. Ultimately, there is no stable "Han dynasty" and Liu Bang without the brute force of someone like Xiangyu to sweep the table of the Qin dynasty (at the battle of Julu).

The last episode 80 has Han Xin returning to his former haunts and there's some well earned plot pay-off to be found there.

enjoy. It's an underrated film.

yes. Han xin makes this point in KingsWar. Liu Bang was a master of delegation. At the same time, Xiangyu didn't help himself. 有一范增而不能用

Glad you enjoyed it

You have solved the entire domain of history, hats off to you. :- )

@@sinolit no need for that. All common sense. Why look at history. Present day events just look at down fall of G7 n uncle sam lol. Brics n puttin alliances so mch powerful now 😁👌

which leader are you referring to?

Indeed, the character is different in Chinese. Interestingly, Zhang Liang 張良, cheif military strategist of Liu Bang (Han Gaozu) was descended from an aristocrat family in the former Hán 韓 state.

Thank-you. This series - Kingswar deserves more attention than it gets.

You have piqued my interest and will definitely give it a try. Thank you!

it was available on Netflix last time I looked. The subtitles are reliably good. It contains many chengyu from Chinese history.

@@sinolit surprised its available in netflix as King’s War! Already finished the first episode. Anyway I will avoid watching your clips for now just to avoid spoilers but looking forward to watching them

yes. it was a pleasant surprise that the subtitles were good to me. usually the subtitles are awful

yes. all the decisions made in adaptation for the Netflix version somehow managed to make a great Science fiction, dull, uninspiring and rushed.

Thank-you. KingsWar is rich in such historical insight.

I remember this scene. Xiao He read documents beforehand and knew that the area was good for farming. It was very difficult to get there though but I guess it worked to their advantage since they were safe from attacks

@@seeanthonyn The Sichuan basin was still fairly new to the mostly Yellow River basin born civilisations - only being incorporated in the Qin conquest. It is plausible that Fan Zeng would know little about it - a fatal error.

Thank-you. The series deserves more attention than it gets.

yes. he's great as Xiangyu. A suitable mixture of arrogance and naive child.

James Legge needs to be known by more people. He was an incredible human being and it's sign of our times that so little is known of his legacy.

We are in agreement that the "manchus" qing dynasty were not a mere replacement of family at the top. They considered themselves as different. Unfortunately, most people were unaware of subversion at the top due to the fact that so many turncoats co-operated with the new "regime"

it was really poor. Remember the embaressing opening lines from "auggie" (YeAH, i'M a rEsEARCher iN NAnoTechnOloGY)? From the first original scene without copying the book it was awful. An incredible feat.

Thank-you. A great adaptation of a great scene in a great book. The scene deserves more attention than it gets.

Unfortunately for Zi Ying, his ruse only kept him alive until after his rival (Qin Er Shi) had died. He reigned for a month before XiangYu at the head of the Chu rebellion took over and according to Kingswar gave him the opportunity to take his own life rather than face humiliation. Playing dumb was probably the only strategy available to him but it didn't work as well as it may have done for Claudius.

Yes. it's great. I started listening back in 2015 approx.

Characterisation in the Netflix version was nursery school level eg. Jin and Auggie in the bar saying their job titles. Ye Wenjie's storyline was embaressing - completely missing out the Yang WeiNing storyline in order to give her unimpeded justification to send the message. The tencent version was for people with a longer attention span. The Netflix one went "faster" for people who couldn't think for themselves or wait for tension to build.

I think i'll be making analysis of the good scenes over the series in the next few months. join me

Well, The Books used the army of the Qin Dynasty. The Tencent series used the army of the Qin dynasty. Both worked visually and were historically credible. Why did they change it? Dumbing down? Appealing to the lowest common denominator? The Qin dynasty gave the world Shang Yang, legalism, the terracotta warriors. Point me towards the comparative legacy bequethed to the world by the mongols. I'll wait. Also, the video never said there wasn't the phenomena of "military discipline" within the Mongol army, but that no-one has this over-arching impression of them and that no legacy of this was left behind. This made the representation in Netflix's dumbed down version unbelievable.

Steady on. It's good youtube has this function because recording in one go would have too many errors if i spoke faster.
