蒲将军 / Pu General

蒲将军 / Pu General enters the wiki through Qinji 134 as the Chu commander paired with 英布 in the first stage of 项羽’s 巨鹿之战 operation. The episode does not develop his biography, so this page keeps him source-scoped as a named military actor in the corridor attack.

After Xiang Yu kills 宋义 and the Chu army reaches Pingyuanjin, Ying Bu and Pu General lead twenty thousand elite troops across the Yellow River before the main force. Their assignment is not the final head-on battle against 王离, but the attack on Qin support units and protected yongdao lines supplying 巨鹿.

The result is decisive for the episode’s interpretation. By breaking the corridor guarded for 章邯 and Wang Li’s besieging army, Pu General and Ying Bu help turn Qin’s numerical and supply advantage into vulnerability. Their work prepares the conditions for the later 破釜沉舟 attack.
