At Gaixia, Xiang Yu was surrounded, outnumbered, and losing hope.
He still had a chance to cross the Wu River and rebuild in Jiangdong.
He refused.
That decision ended the Chu–Han War.

On my Xiang Yu x Yu Ji shenanigans again.
There’s a Chinese mobile game that has a cutscene for the songs of Gaixia and like
“If heaven’s will is for Han’s army to kill us, then isn’t my suicide be called victory over heaven?”
Fuck 2000 years of Chinese fanfic writers for making such good doomed het
