I have talked about Han Anguo before, and this time I will talk a little more about it
01
When Han Anguo was young, he studied "Han Feizi" and its miscellaneous teachings, and although he failed to become a prominent celebrity of the Fa, he was able to enter his career through this, which can be said to be more knowledgeable than ordinary people.
He initially served Liu Wu the Prince of Liang and held the position of Zhongdafu.
This Liang king Liu Wu was not an ordinary person, he was the brother-in-law of Emperor Jing of Han's half-mother, and he was deeply favored by Empress Dou.
Liu Wu himself was also able to write and be able to do martial arts, not only was his fief the largest and richest among the princes, but he himself could also be said to be loyal to the central court.
Therefore, when the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms" occurred, Liu Wu's Liang state became the last line of defense for the Chang'an imperial court.
It was also because of this turmoil that Han Anguo was able to get ahead, and he and Zhang Yu, a famous general under the Liang King's account, attacked and defended, and dragged down the Wu-Chu rebels in Suiyang City, and thus became one of the great heroes who quelled the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms".
This can be regarded as Han Anguo's emergence on the stage of history.
Because of his contribution to quelling the turmoil, Liu Wu,the Prince of Liang, began to change in his heart, especially because of Empress Dou's favor, Liu Wu had ideas about the position of the heir to the throne.
This is unconsciously reflected in his usual travels, and his travel honor is even similar to that of Tianzi.
At this point, not to mention that Emperor Jingdi of Han was uncomfortable, that is, Empress Dou felt that it was a little too much, so the emissaries sent by the King of Liang to Chang'an were severely reprimanded by the Empress, and the contradiction between the King of Liang and the Central Imperial Court had the potential to erupt...
02
To say that Han Anguo is a great person, he not only fights wars, but also is very good at lobbying.
He spoke to the empress dowager through Princess Taochang, the half-sister of King Liang.
It is repeatedly shown how during the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, the King of Liang was sleepless day and night, worried about the safety of the Empress Dowager and Emperor Jing, and fought bravely to kill the enemy at the front line, just to keep the Empress Dowager and Emperor Jing safe.
Nowadays, the car battle is somewhat solemn, and it is also hoped that everyone in the world can see the love of the empress dowager and Emperor Jing for him, and there is no intention of arrogance, please the empress dowager and Emperor Jing do not seize the details of some of the behavior of The King of Liang and reprimand him.
His words turned the empress dowager's anger into joy, and at the same time, these words reached Emperor Jing's ears, and emperor Jing was relieved in his heart, and he loved King Liang even more.
Han Anguo thus left a deep impression on the hearts of the empress dowager and Emperor Jing, and he also had the opportunity to establish contact with the central court, which paved the way for his future career from the local to the central government.

When people have scenery, there will naturally be a stage of low tide.
Later, Han Anguo made some mistakes and was thrown into prison, and the prison official Tian Jia insulted him with extremely harsh language, saying that he was already like ashes.
He said to Tian Jia very calmly, "Don't you know that the dead ash will also rekindle?" ”
Tian Jia said contemptuously, even if it is revived, a soak of urine will be poured out.
It's just that the world is so impermanent.
Later, Han Anguo was appointed as the history of Liang Province, which made Tian Jia feel that a catastrophe was imminent, and he was frightened to flee, and although Han Anguo forced him to return, he did not have difficulty for him, on the contrary, he treated him kindly, and his general style was fully revealed.
This is indeed rare compared to Li Guangjun's revenge for killing the gatekeeper who had embarrassed him in the first place.
04
King Liang regained favor, but in the end he did not know how to restrain and not only still coveted the right to inherit the throne.
He even adopted the bad idea of his close ministers Gongsun Wei and Yang Sheng, and sent assassins into Beijing to kill the opposing ministers, especially the famous minister Yuan Ang, who was killed as a result, which greatly angered Emperor Jing.
Emperor Jing sent people to the Liang kingdom to arrest Gongsun Wei and Yang Sheng, but the King of Liang made a small disposition at this moment and hid them for the imperial court to arrest them.
This act greatly intensified the contradiction between Emperor Jing and King Liang.
At this time, Han Anguo rushed to the palace of King Liang and persuaded King Liang with kind words:
The relationship between Han Gaozu and the Emperor Taishang, and the relationship between the Emperor and the King of Linjiang, is far closer than your relationship with the Emperor, right?
But Gao Zu once said that it was he who struck the world with a sword, so even the Emperor Taishang could not ask about the government;
King Linjiang was once a crown prince, but also because of the inappropriate behavior of his mother's concubine, he was reprimanded by the emperor.
If you insist on going your own way, your fate will only be worse!
The emperor is now because of the empress dowager's reasons did not do anything to the king, once the empress dowager is gone, you are bound to regret it.
These heartfelt words finally made The King of Liang wake up like a dream, Gongsun Wei and Yang Sheng committed suicide to apologize, and Emperor Jing temporarily spared the King of Liang.
Han Anguo's visit once again resolved the contradiction between King Liang and Emperor Jing, and his contribution was indispensable.
King Liang was depressed and died young.
Han Anguo was also deposed for making a small mistake and lived idly at home.
05
The second rise of Han Anguo benefited from his foreign relative Tian Tian.
After Emperor Wu of Han ascended the throne, Tian Yu, as his uncle, was reused and served as a lieutenant to take power.
Han Anguo offered a lot of money to Tian Feng, who was strongly recommended by Empress Wang and Emperor Wu, and because Han Anguo's previous talents had already won the attention of Emperor Wu, Han Anguo was reinstated.
Soon after he left the mountain, he cooperated with Daxing Wang Hui to quell the Minyue Rebellion and once again showed his extraordinary military talent.
After that, Tian Yu became the minister, and Han Anguo was also promoted to the rank of Imperial Master, and suddenly entered the ranks of the "Three Dukes".
From the battlefield to the inner court, from the local to the central, Han Anguo showed his outstanding political ability.
Who was Emperor Wu of Han?
It is a generation of male lords, and it is the Emperor Qianqiu who is not willing to be bullied by the Xiongnu.
However, at the beginning of the reign, militarily, the Han Dynasty really did not have enough ability to fight against the Xiongnu.
But the emperor wanted to fight, and the people below echoed it.
Han Anguo did not have anyone in this matter, and still analyzed it for Emperor Wu from the overall situation, and at present he still wanted to focus on peace and affinity.
He analyzed for Emperor Wu:
The Xiongnu were mainly cavalry, and their strategy was all guerrilla, and we pursued them, not to acquire their land.
When we go after them, we can only say that we use our shortcomings to touch each other's strengths, and there is no benefit.
Consider the present, or should be based on peace and affinity.
Emperor Wu weighed the pros and cons of the present and agreed to Han Anguo's claim.
After Tian Yue's death, Han Anguo took charge of the affairs of the chancellor.
Emperor Wu of Han intended to promote him to chancellor, but at this critical moment, Han Anguo accidentally broke his leg and was very lame, so he was again dismissed from his post for several months to recover from illness.
06
Han Anguo was used for the third time and took up the position of a guard lieutenant, but at this time, he was more of a residual heat.
Because the main national policy of the Han Dynasty at this time was to declare war on the Xiongnu, relying on the strong rise of young generals such as Wei Qing and Huo Qiyi.
Emperor Wu of Han changed his previous conservatism toward the Xiongnu and began to vigorously attack the military strength of the Xiongnu in the western region, while Han Anguo, who advocated a relatively conservative view of the Xiongnu, no longer became the reliance of Emperor Wu of Han.
However, this famous minister of the two emperors and one king was still appointed by Emperor Wu of Han as a general of the Material Officer, stationed in the area of Yuyang and Youbeiping to resist the Xiongnu attack in this area.
Under the strong momentum of the whole country against the Xiongnu, Han Anguo could rarely retain a calm, and Emperor Shangshu hoped that Emperor Wu hoped that he could effectively implement the Tuntian strategy when the Xiongnu retreated, otherwise the battle would not be over, and the crops would be barren, and the gains would not be worth the losses.
Unfortunately, this pertinent expectation, Emperor Wudi of han did not realize it until his old age, which made people sigh.

"How big a man is, how wise he is, and wise enough to be in the world, and to be loyal." Greed for money. All those who are elected are honest, and those who are wise to themselves are also. ”
- "History of Han Changru Biography 48"
"The likes of the magicians cannot create vertical rules, but they can be changed into the right to use, and there is more than enough power and wisdom, and there is insufficient justice, which is the wisdom of the will, and Chen Ping and Han Anguo are also."
——Liu Shao
Han Anguo, the first person since Han Gaozu to work from a commoner to the third gong, the degree of cowhide can be imagined
Emperor Wu of Han was fighting so hard against his foreign relatives Dou Jia and Wang Jia, that both the core Dou Bao and Tian Jie had an accident, and as soon as he saw that Wei Qing was about to ascend to the throne, he immediately retreated.
This wisdom is true for the elder.
After that, the leader of the army was stationed, and was bullied and insulted by the Xiongnu, with many losses and casualties, and felt ashamed in his heart.
Hoping to return to the imperial court, he was transferred to the east to garrison.
In the second year of Yuan Shuo (127 BC), Han Anguo, who was frustrated and sullen, fell ill and vomited blood, and died of depression.
At last:
The Han Anguo actor Sun Feihu in the picture accompanying this article has passed away in 2014.
He's a powerful bull.
He also played Zeng Guofan, and coincidentally Han Anguo and Zeng Guofan encountered the same problems in their later years.
