Zhang Liang, courtesy name Zifang, was a minister in the early Han Dynasty. According to "Historical Records: The Liuhou Family", Zhang Liang was born in Chengfu (now southeast of Bozhou, Anhui). His ancestors and father successively became Han Zhaohou, King Xuanhui and other ministers. After Qin destroyed Korea, he attempted to restore Korea, made friends with assassins, and failed to snipe Qin Shihuang in Bolangsha (now southeast of Yuanyang, Henan). Legend has it that when he fled to Xiapi (now north of Suining, Jiangsu), he met the old man Huang Shigong and obtained "Tai Gong's Art of War". During the peasant war at the end of Qin Dynasty, he gathered people to return to Liu Bang, and soon lobbied Xiang Liang to make the Han nobles the king of Han and appointed Han Situ. After Xiang Yu killed Queen Han, he returned to Liu Bang to advise him. During the Chu-Han War, he proposed not to establish descendants of the Six Kingdoms, and united with Chu generals Yingbu and Han Xin and Qin general Peng Yue to finally annihilate the Qin army. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, he was enfeoffed to Liucheng in Jiangsu Province and was named Liuhou. Zhang Liang, Xiao He and Han Xin were known as the "Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty". Liu Bang once said that he "made strategic plans and won decisively from thousands of miles away". Not long after Liu Bang came to the throne, he successively killed Han Xin and other meritorious ministers. Zhang Liang retreated bravely and came to Zibai Mountain to practice in hiding. Later generations called this place "Bigu".
