The triumph over Guanzhong clouds Liu Bang’s mind. Ignoring Han Xin’s strategic advice, he leads a large army to invade Xiang Yu’s territory. Although initially successful, Liu Bang’s campaign ends in a humiliating debacle at the hands of Xiang Yu’s cavalry troops. He calls on Han Xin to come to his aid. Leading freshly trained units, Han Xin successfully blocks Xiang Yu and sets up a stable defence line for the Han army. However, his incredible triumphs begin to rouse Liu Bang’s jealousy.

It's 206 BCE and the Qin Dynasty has fallen. Xiang Yu rules as hegemon king over 18 vassal kings. Fearing he might challenge his power, Xiang Yu has exiled Liu Bang, the king of Han, to the remote land of Hanzhong. Missing their homes, many of Liu Bang’s soldiers and generals desert. Han Xin, a low ranking officer, helps one of these soldiers and is sentenced to death. Yet this is no ordinary young man and Han Xin is given another chance to prove his worth to the king.
