In 210 BC, the First Emperor Yin Zheng died of illness, and Hu Hai succeeded to the throne under the edicts of Li Si and Zhao Gao, as Qin II. However, compared with his father's great talent, Hu Hai was incompetent and spoiled, which also made the contradictions of the Qin Dynasty under the undercurrent burst forth, and finally with the great uprising of the peasants at the end of Qin, which was opened by the Dazexiang Uprising led by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the Qin Dynasty was also annihilated in the torrent of history.
Among them, Liu Bang was indispensable, and he was the direct destroyer of the Qin Dynasty. In October 206 BC, Liu Bang forced Xianyang, the Prince of Qin left the city and surrendered, and the Qin Dynasty died. Among such brilliant achievements achieved by Liu Bang, Han Xin, as a minister of the humerus, can be said to have made great achievements. Liu Bang then praised: "Even with millions of people, the battle will be won, the attack will be won, I am not as good as Han Xin." But even so, after the world was pacified, the king's jealousy, Han Xin, a general with great merit, could not escape death after all.
In 197 BC, Chen Feng rebelled. Liu Bang personally marched, while Lü Yan, who was in the rear, conspired with Xiao He to summon Han Xin to Changle Palace and then kill him after Liu Bang's return from the rebellion under the congratulations of his courtiers. A generation of gods of war fell, but the hatred was difficult to reconcile, and left a sentence before dying, and after listening to this language, Xiao He and Lü Hou could not help but have residual palpitations, even if Liu Bangping returned from rebellion later, inquired about this matter, and listened to this remark, he could not help but be shocked. Why?
Han Xin came from a poor background, and even often sent people to the fence and begged for food for a living. This also made him feel disgraced, and even more so, the "crotch humiliation" and "begging for food and drifting mother" that were insulted by the Huaiyin butchers were passed down to the world. However, just as the so-called "times create heroes", when the great uprising at the end of Qin rose and fell, he also resolutely ushered in the opportunity and defected to Xiang Yu, who was the most powerful at that time.
As a Chu person, Xiang Yu was brave and fierce, and the Chu people hated Qin for a long time, so they flocked to qin. However, Xiang Yu was less aware of people's understanding, and not only did he not listen to Fan Zeng's plot so that he let Liu Bang go and let the tiger return to the mountain at the Hongmen Banquet; even for Zhang Liang who was left behind, he was also decisive and indecisive.
As for Han Xin, who was also a case of lost pearls, Xiang Yu only entrusted Lang Zhong with the post, but did not accept his suggestions. As a result, when Jin was hopeless, Han Xin had to surrender to Liu Bang. However, Liu Bang did not use Han Xin at the beginning, but one person was well aware of Han Xin's ability, and this person was Xiao He.
In many conversations with Han Xin, Xiao He was deeply impressed with Han Xin's views. However, for Liu Bang's use, Han Xin once again chose to run away, and after hearing that Han Xin had left, Xiao He was furious and personally chased after him. A story of "Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon" was born from this, and finally under Xiao He's recommendation, Han Xin was finally appointed as a general and ushered in the opportunity to belong to him.
Under the earnest discussion with Liu Bang, he analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, persuaded Liu Bang to appoint brave warriors, and finally had great achievements in using Han Xin to ping the king of Qi and defeating Xiang Yu.
As a master, Han Xin naturally attracted a lot of good help around him, among which there was the counselor Pu Tong. In the chaotic world of that time, the strategists helped the lord with good strategies and made meritorious achievements in the hope of making a contribution, and they wandered among the people, and the good birds chose trees to live. In The midst of Han Xin's conquest of the State of Qi, it was precisely by using the strategy of Pu Tong that the 72 cities and pools of the State of Qi were successfully conquered.
At this time, an incident occurred, when Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were fighting fiercely, Han Xin lived in Qidi, and naturally thought of being like the Warring States, and he split the land to be crowned king, so he asked Liu Bang to make himself the King of Qi.
Liu Bang had no time for himself at that time, so he had to make Han Xin the King of Qi. For such a situation, as a strategist, Pu Tong was naturally also a keen sense of political smell, so he advised Han Xin to do things for the benefit of fishermen, and even more when Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were tired, they stood on their own. In this way, the world's major events, why worry about it! However, Han Xin did not adopt Pu Tong's opinion and chose to submit to Liu Bang, so that Liu Bang, with han Xin's help, established the Han Dynasty.
Although Han Xin was crowned king of Chu at this time, the historical tradition of "rabbit dead dog cooking" did not change, and soon Han Xin was demoted to marquis. This also made Han Xin sullen and unhappy, and he had a disobedient heart. And when he was held by Xiao He and Lü Yan, he had the sentence: "I regret not using kuǎi's plan, but being deceived by my sons and daughters. ”
For Han Xin, laying the foundation for Liu Shi, but ending up with a cursed ending, how could he not be resentful! If you had listened to the plan of Pu Tong, why did you do this! But where in a person's life there are regret medicines, where there are assumptions, ifs.
