    In this scene between Xiangyu and his mentor Fan Zeng we learn why.

    I loved Peter Ho as Lü Bu in Three Kingdoms. I don't think I've heard of this series. Will come to it after Chu and Han series that I started but never finished.

      yes. he's great as Xiangyu. A suitable mixture of arrogance and naive child.
