Zhou Bo's ancestral home was in Juan County but he was born in Pei County. He was a friend of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han dynasty, and joined Liu in rebelling against the Qin dynasty. After the fall of the Qin dynasty, Zhou Bo fought on Liu Bang's side in the Chu–Han Contention and assisted him in overcoming his rival, Xiang Yu.
