葛婴 / Ge Ying

葛婴 / Ge Ying enters the wiki through Qinji 128-2 at the episode’s closing edge rather than in the main uprising narrative. The source says Ge Ying’s death has a large effect on 张楚政权 because it deprives the rebel regime of a major general and intensifies 陈胜’s suspicion of subordinates.

This page is intentionally narrow until a later source narrates Ge Ying’s actions and death directly. Its current role is to preserve the episode’s transition from the successful outbreak of the 大泽乡起义 to the internal-trust problem that helps explain later rebel failure.

Qinji 128-3 adds his first operational role before that later death problem. After the rebels take Qixian, Chen Sheng sends Ge Ying east to keep taking cities while the main force grows toward Chen County. The transcript renders the name as “葛英”; this page keeps the existing normalized 葛婴 identity.
