In the late Qin Dynasty, XIANG Yu dispatches troops for a fierce battle at Jiuli Mountain, only to get ambushed on all sides by HAN Xin, becoming trapped in Gaixia. The Han soldiers sing Chu songs loudly in the dark of night. Concubine YU hears the sound of singing and informs XIANG Yu of this. XIANG Yu steps out of the tent and listens carefully. Aware that his day has gone, XIANG Yu walks back into the tent and drinks with Concubine YU, singing in a mournful tone. After performing a sword dance, Concubine YU throws herself on her sword in order to clear up XIANG Yu’s worries. XIANG Yu breaks out of the encirclement and escapes to Wu River, where he commits suicide.

秦末，项羽发兵大战九里山，遭到韩信设下十面埋伏阵，被困垓下。汉军深夜高唱楚歌，被虞姬听到，告知项羽。项羽出帐细听，感到大势已去，便回帐中与虞姬饮酒悲歌。虞姬为解除项羽后顾之忧，舞剑后自刎。项羽突围，逃至乌江，自刎而死。
