Consort Yu
Unfortunately for Xiang Yu, fortune turned against him. In one of the ambushes, Xiang Yu's wife, Consort Yu (), was captured by Han troops. Han Xin immediately ordered that she be taken into the canyon. Xiang Yu, without a choice, sent most of his worn-out forces back to the Chu capital, while he himself led a smaller force of 100,000 soldiers into the canyon to save his wife.
