The happiest person to unify the world should be Liu Bang. Because in the end, Qin Shi Huang unified China fell into the hands of Liu Bang, and in his descendants, it was passed down for more than 400 years.
So, the question is, in the process of unifying the world, what is Liu Bang doing? To understand this question, we must first see how many years apart Liu Bang and Yin Zheng are.
Liu Bang is three years younger than Yingzheng
Qin Shi Huang was born in 259 BC, and Liu Bang was born in 256 BC, which means that Yin Zheng was only three years older than Liu Bang. Many people may not think that the two of them are actually a generation, living in the same world.
Although many people think it is incredible, it is true, and it is recorded in the historical records.
The key historical materials also say that Liu Bang had met Qin Shi Huang, and that year Liu Bang went to Xianyang City to serve in the army, and he happened to see Qin Shi Huang who was out of town.
Qin Shi Huang's motorcade was mighty and mighty!
At that time, Liu Bang also said a very famous sentence, "The big husband should be like this." Therefore, Liu Bang and Qin Shi Huang, they belong to the same generation, this is not a problem at all.
When Yingzheng unified the world, Liu Bang, who was in his 30s, was chasing the stars
Knowing the approximate age of the two of them, let's look at how old he was when He unified the world?
Yingzheng unified China in 221 BC, when Yingzheng was 38 years old. The Great Qin Empire established by Yingzheng only existed for 15 years, of which Yingzheng was in charge for 13 years and Qin II was in charge for 2 years. Yingzheng died at the age of 50, so It is said that Yingzheng is 38 years old to unify China and call himself emperor.
At this time, Liu Bang is 35 years old, and what is Liu Bang in his 30s doing?
It is safe to say that in the process of unifying the world, Liu Bang was by no means the chief of the Surabaya Pavilion. He became the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, which was a matter of many systems formulated after the unification of the Qin State.
If it is said that when Yingzheng unified the world, Liu Bang was pursuing the stars and making progress in his studies, many people may not believe it. In fact, it is true that the person whom Liu Bang admired was called Xin Lingjun.
The story of Xin Lingjun stealing the charm to save Zhao, Liu Bang still knows, Liu Bang admires such a hero very much, and also wants to see him. However, Liu Bang did not see Xin Lingjun after all.
Because Xin Lingjun died in 243 BC, Liu Bang was only 13 years old at the time. Therefore, by the time Liu Bang knew that Xin Lingjun worshipped Xin Lingjun and wanted to see Xin Lingjun, he was no longer there.
Not seeing Xin Lingjun, this became a regret in Liu Bang's life, after he became emperor, when he passed by Da Liang, he also went to the tomb of Xin Lingjun to worship. At the same time, he also found five families to guard the tomb of the Xinling Jun.
Xin Lingjun did not see it, but Liu Bang heard that there was also a famous scholar named Zhang Er in the State of Wei, and he was a disciple of Xin Lingjun before.
In Liu Bang's view, Zhang Er must be a very powerful person, after all, he can be a disciple of Xin Lingjun. Therefore, Liu Bang went to Zhang Er. Zhang Er also has many doormen, and Liu Bang is one of all the doormen.
When Liu Bang became emperor, he made Zhang Er the King of Zhao, and at the same time, he also married his daughter Princess Lu Yuan to Zhang Er's son Zhang Ao.
It can be seen that Liu Bang has a lot of weight on this Zhang's ears. In fact, when Liu Bang was in his thirties, he followed Zhang Er. However, by 225 BC, the state of Wei was destroyed. Liu Bang, who was 32 years old at the time, could only say goodbye to Zhang Er and go back to each family to find his mother.
Liu Bang, who was about 40 years old, became the chief of the Surabaya Pavilion
After following Zhang Er, Liu Bang returned to his hometown.
After that, he became the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, and when Liu Bang became the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, the Great Qin Empire had been unified for several years. Moreover, when he was the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, he had a good relationship with Xiao He, the secretary of the Pei County Governor at that time.
At this time, whatever mistakes Liu Bang made, Xiao He had done it for him. It was also during this period that Liu Bang made many good friends, such as: Xiahou Baby, Zhou Bo, Cao Shan, and so on.
It was these people who helped Liu Bang lay the foundation for the world.
When Qin II came to power, Liu Bang had already fallen into the grass. In the chaotic era at the end of Qin, especially after Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising, Liu Bang also joined the camp of the rebel army.
At the age of 48, Liu Bang began an uprising, destroying Qin in three years and destroying Xiang in four years
At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang led the brothers of Pei County to start an uprising, and they were originally vulnerable, but Liu Bang was wise and discerning, and he joined Xiang Liang's ranks. Because of the protection of the Xiang family army, they survived. After Xiang Liang's death in battle, he and Xiang Yu destroyed the Great Qin Empire.
From the uprising to the fall of the Qin state, it took three years.
After the fall of the Qin state, the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony began. At this time, Han Xin joined Liu Bang's camp, and Zhang Liang officially became an employee of Liu Bang.
With these two people, plus Xiao He, who was already following him. It took these people 4 years to defeat Xiang Yu and unify the world.
At the age of 55, Liu Bang finally became emperor. When Liu Bang became emperor, Yin Zheng had been dead for 8 years. That is to say, after eight years of Yin Zheng's death, Liu Bang's glory has just arrived.
