Evony recently released a new Epic Historic General named Zhang Liang during their 2022 Anniversary Celebration. Zhang Liang was a prominent Chinese military strategist and politician who lived in the early Western Han dynasty. He is known as one of the “Three Heroes of the early Han dynasty” in Chinese history, and in Evony, he is also a powerful Duty General. In this article, we will introduce the story, Special Skill and Specialty of Zhang Liang first. And then discuss how to get Zhang Liang and how to use him correctly.
The Story of Zhang Liang
In 206 BC, a power struggle for supremacy over China began between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, which lasted for four years. It was during this time that Zhang Liang proposed a strategy to Liu Bang to counter Xiang Yu, known as the “Xiayi Plan”. Liu Bang followed Zhang Liang's advice, and by late 203 BC, Zhang Liang saw that the tide had turned in favor of Liu Bang as Xiang Yu had been surrounded on three sides.
Together with Chen Ping, Zhang Liang suggested to Liu Bang to renounce the Treaty of Hong Canal and use the opportunity to eliminate Western Chu. Liu Bang followed Zhang Liang's advice and granted land to Han Xin and Peng Yue. As Zhang Liang predicted, Han Xin and Peng Yue arrived with their armies and formed a coordinated attack on Western Chu together with Liu Bang's force, defeating Xiang Yu at the Battle of Gaixia in 202 BC.
Zhang Liang's contributions to the establishment of the Han Dynasty were significant, and he became one of the most famous strategists in later generations.
