214. 510s BC part 4: Wu Chu War!

The Vengeance of Wu Zixu: Blood Feud in the South

The Spring and Autumn period just got personal. Wu Zixu watched his family fall at the hands of King Chu—and now, serving King Helü of Wu, he’s coming for payback. This episode dives into the explosive campaigns against Chu in the 510s BCE, with a certain strategist named Sun Tzu lurking at the edge of the battlefield. Revenge, war, amphibious assaults, and the art of patience—this is Part 2 of the chaos of the 510s.

And Dan has some classic lines for Fan of History style good times!
