Untitled[edit]

Note, although i have merged these two articles, they probably deserve to be two separate articles, when there's more in them. i only put them together because they were heading in the same direction. feel free to recreate Chu-Han War as a full article. tooto 12:22, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Need clarification[edit]

Under "End of the War":

'In the third month of 202 BC, Han Xin found himself besieged in the city of Gaixia, by the coalition force of Han and the other kings...'

I'm pretty sure it's Xiang Yu who's being besieged here? Dangerous Angel 09:05, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

What is Guanzhong?[edit]

Guanzhong currently redirects to Guangzhou, which is obviously not what is intended. Googling for "Guanzhong" returns no relevant results. It is my understanding that Qin was based in what is today Shaanxi? (It would be good if information about this was added to Qin (state) as well.) -- JanSöderback

Guanzhong = "within the passes", a corridor roughly between Xi'an and Luoyang--Confuzion 03:55, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, not quite -- Luoyang is clearly east of Hangu Pass, which is the eastern most point of Guanzhong. I'll try to fix the redirect situation. --Nlu (talk) 04:38, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Please take a look and see what you guys think. --Nlu (talk) 04:42, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Very precise definition; looks good to me--Confuzion 06:04, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much. -- JanSöderback 07:55, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs to make it clearer to the causal reader which calender the months are based on Fornadan (t) 16:30, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

improvements[edit]

A map of the various states and movement of the armies would be nice, as well as a quality polish. I mean statements like 'Therefore Xiang Yu disliked Tian Rong a lot.' are really painful.

Swords[edit]

Going by the Chinese swords article iron and steel swords were becoming common prior to the CHC: how familiar/available would they be to the military participants? Would 'leading generals', middle ranking officers, the ordinary soldiers have had iron/steel swords and/or daggers and under what circumstances? 82.44.143.26 (talk) 18:34, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
