Xiang Yu was born into a lower class farming family in Pei County. He relied on his brother's family for food. After he grew up, Xiang Yu served as a patrol officer in his county. Once, he was sent to transport a group of prisoners to Mount Li. During the trip many prisoners fled. Fearful that he would be punished for the escape, Xiang Yu offered the remaining prisoners their freedom if they would fight for him. Xiang Yu became the leader of a band of thieves.
