The long river of history is running endlessly, there are calm waves, there are also waves, let Xiaobian take you into history and understand history.
In that year, in October of the first year of the Han Dynasty (206 BC), Liu Bang's army entered Guanzhong in a mighty way, and also arrived at Bashang before the armies of other princes. That is to say, Liu Bang had the prerequisite for being called the King of Guanzhong, which was indeed a matter of pride, and liu Bang's hometown of Liu Bang's hometown of the rogue masses of rich disciples, after the surrender, absorption, rectification and continuous bleaching of political colors along the way, strengthened military management, and straightened out discipline, actually became a well-known iron army, preparing a very good political and military foundation for it to be able to lay a good political and military foundation.
At that time, the prince of Qin rode in a vegetarian car, rode a white horse, and put his neck on a rope (the king of the king was defeated), holding a seal in his hand, and the rune was lowered next to the road, that is, to ask for the white flag to surrender. Seeing this situation, some people also advocated that the prince of Qin be done and let him atone for the crime of violent Qin, anyway, it was the appearance of the crowd boiling for blood debts and blood payments, and seeing the situation was about to be incontinent.
"Everybody don't be impatient, listen to me say a few words, okay?" Maybe you remember when King Huai sent me to recover Guanzhong, I originally thought that I could be lenient and not kill innocents indiscriminately. The ruler of Qin has done a lot of things to apologize to the people, but now that the king of Qin has surrendered, he should be given a way to live, if he is killed, how much difference do we have between us and violent Qin, is this not a violent exchange for violence? Unlucky also. Seeing that the situation was likely to get out of control, Liu Bang immediately ascended to the heights to stabilize the scene.
Seeing Liu Bang say this, there is also a certain truth, because the enemy also gives a way to live, and it is indeed generous enough. Then, everyone stopped shouting, and their mood calmed down a lot, so Liu Bang handed over the King of Qin, who had surrendered and surrendered, to his subordinates to strictly supervise, and continued to carry out the revolution to the end, and led his troops to Xianyang again.
In the face of the magnificent Qin Palace where the former idol Qin Shi Huang once lived, Liu Bang was really a little drooling, which is called the best enjoyment, isn't it to live a good life like a god? Now the glory and wealth are in front of you and you are not moved, that is called stupidity, your grandfather and I Liu Bang will always be a realist, not an idealist. It was also one of the flashes of this extravagant and confused thought that almost ruined Liu Bang's major event, and almost at the Hongmen Banquet, he was asked for his life by the wolf-like Xiang Yuxiang King, and if it were not for the strong persuasion of the far-sighted Zhang Liang and Fan Duo, there would really be an accident.
Therefore, people must often criticize the private words in their hearts, in other words, the bleaching of this political color is a matter of a lifetime, not an overnight effect, and a little inferiority will make the fruits of victory drift away, and many of Liu Bang's political opponents, such as the former good brother Xiang Yu, have suffered losses on these issues, and the result of too much indulgence is a defeat.
Because Liu Bang himself also realized that the world was far from being at peace at that time, and his own strength did not have much advantage in front of the crowd at that time, although he entered the guanzhong first according to the agreement, he also had the most conditions to claim the king in the south first, but the political side effects of this title of king were also large, in case someone disobeyed, it was equivalent to becoming a target of others, putting himself on the fire and roasting himself, and later it was indeed Liu Bang's superior Xiang brother who was the first to disobey, almost opening a film to ask for Liu Bang's life, thinking about it was a bit afraid, and everything was indeed impossible to rush to make quick profits.
Fortunately, in the end, Liu Bang listened to Zhang Liang's advice, did not live in the super five-star imperial suite of the Qin Palace, and also sealed all the gold and silver treasures and all the inventory in the Qin Palace, and then returned them to the army. At the same time, in order to win over the people of Qindi, Liu Bang also specially summoned fathers and villagers from the nearby counties of Guanzhong and various powerful people, and said some heartfelt words to them in the heart of the heart, so that they would know some of Liu Bang's practices.
"Hello fellow villagers, I am Liu Bang, I am also from a poor family, and I also know how miserable it is for everyone to live under the harsh and harsh Qin law for a long time. For example, the Qin Law stipulates that if the people criticize the government and the government, they will be exterminated, and they will also be killed when they get together to discuss major state affairs. I have made an agreement with the princes that the first to enter the customs is the king of Guanzhong. In view of the harsh Qin law, today I am here to make three chapters of the law with my fathers and fellow countrymen: the murderer shall be punished with capital punishment, and the wounded and robbery shall be punished according to law. The rest of the laws of the Qin Dynasty were null and void, and all the officials and people of the Qin Dynasty worked and lived in peace and contentment as before. The reason why I led the troops into the customs was to eliminate violence and be safe, not to encroach on everyone's property and do cruel things, so everyone did not have to be afraid. The reason why I still have our army on the battlefield is to wait for the various princes to assemble in order to conclude a treaty. Liu Bang said to everyone emotionally.
In order to eliminate the fear of the common people, Liu Bang also sent special people and Officials of the Qin Dynasty to tour various villages to understand the situation and carry out vigorous propaganda. The people of Qindi also finally believed that Liu Bang was not here to plunder the people's property, but the people's disciples and soldiers, so they were very happy, and then they competed to take their own cattle and sheep wine and food to labor the army. Of course, Pei Gong did not want to take the masses' hard-earned money casually, and Liu Bang said to them: "There is military food in the warehouse, and there is no shortage of food, please don't break the cost anymore, and our discipline does not allow it." When the common people heard this kind of self-respecting words, they were very touched and overjoyed, afraid that Liu Bang would not be the king of Qin, which was indeed the most effective political color bleaching.
In short, through a series of effective political operations in Guanzhong, Liu Bang's political and military influence not only greatly increased, but also relatively well rectified the previous habits of exile, strengthened army building, effectively promoted the formation of the initial political and military system of the Han army, and laid a solid foundation for later competition for the world.
On this point, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu have a great qualitative difference, originally a little ranger who was born in a mixed day and can have fun in time, but under the influence and experience of the war, there has been such a big change, it is simply Liu Bang himself who does not believe in his own feelings, because this change is also too big, so that Liu Bang himself later has a little bit of a look of not knowing himself. Originally, Liu Bang was so far-sighted and ambitious, this must have the shadow of Xin Lingjun's ambition and lofty mind penetrating inside, mixing has never been my main business, it is only a superficial phenomenon, or it is pretended, just as Liu Bang's father will only see the rogue face of his young people who ate white food, and many people certainly cannot see Liu Bang's lofty ideals in the world through the phenomenon.
And this point can only be seen by Fan Zeng, who is also a very old and treacherous strategist of Xiang Yu, who knows every move of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu after entering Xianyang City, and is also deeply aware of Liu Bang's practice of "not killing children and babies, about three chapters of the law, not being rewarded, and qiu without committing any crimes". It is said that Fan Zeng also offered a plan to Xiang Yu for this reason: "King Xiang, what Liu Bang, a small scoundrel, did after entering Guanzhong is worthy of our admiration, according to the old minister, Liu Bang originally liked wine and money when he was in his hometown of Pei County, and actually such a greedy and lustful person came to the Qin Palace, saw countless antique treasures and beautiful women, but did not move at all, came a change of one hundred and eighty degrees, like a changed person, picking up gold without committing any crime, a great change in temperament, not disturbing the people at all, winning the hearts of the people. A person suddenly has such a great restraint and endurance, not moved by the immediate interests, can only explain one thing, that is, his heart is open-minded, ambitious, this person can not be underestimated, ah, so you have to be wary of him everywhere, maybe it is he who will compete with you in the future. Because I look at the heavens at night and find that he has the qi of the Son of Heaven on his side, you have to be careful of him. ”
Of course, the old slippery head Fan Zeng's words may be correct, telling a part of the truth, but in terms of Xiang Yu, who was strong and strong and young and proud and complacent at that time, basically he would never treat Liu Bang as a figure of his magnitude, at most it was just a small role of accompanying him to play the dragon set with him, this roar can also make the earth tremble three times, even if he knows that Liu Bang's "ambition is not small". Measuring Liu Bang could not shake his position.
And in the end, it was Liu Bang, a small village scoundrel who could not support the wall in the eyes of Xiang Yu, who of course had a problem from quantitative change to qualitative change, no one could eat a fat man in one bite, it was even more impossible to ascend to the heavens in one step, there must be a difficult process of standing up strong from continuous failure and becoming constantly strong.
In fact, from the performance of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu entering Guanzhong almost at the same time, it foreshadows the fate of the two sides in the future battle for the world. Compared with Liu Bang's lofty ambitions of "not killing children and babies, about three chapters of the law, not being rewarded, and not committing any crimes in autumn", Xiang Yu, who was strong in the eyes of the rat for a while, just did the opposite, "killing children and babies, burning the palace, slaughtering Xianyang", killing more than 200,000 Qin soldiers, burning and looting everywhere he went, it was almost the same as what qin had done, and even more than that. Anyway, the heroic Xiang Yu's favorite thing to do is to slaughter the city, that is to say, every time he attacks a city, in order to completely destroy the enemy's resistance force, he likes to kill all the men, women, and children in the city, and not a single living mouth is left, that is, the history books say that "the city has no remnants", which is simply the rebirth of the murderous demon king. Xiang Yu was also crazy enough to burn the Qin King's Palace with a fire, and the fire did not go out for three months, and Liu Bang's magnificent palace that was not willing to live for one night made him burn to ashes, and his heart ached.
Moreover, Xiang Yu's short-sightedness was also manifested in a very heavy localist color, after he burned the palace room, he did not live anymore, so he simply collected the beauties and treasures of the Qin Palace and returned to the east. At this time, someone came out to persuade Xiang Yu: "In the land of Guanzhong, there are mountains and rivers, and the land is fertile, especially Xianyang, which is the capital of the emperor, can be built here to dominate." But at this time, Qin's palace had been burned down, and he was also such a small person who was so shrewd in his children's love, big things, big things, and small things, and he especially missed his hometown, and in the distant Qin Guan Mingyue, he especially missed pengcheng, his hometown in the east, and Xiang Yu replied: "Rich and noble and not returning to the hometown, just like the night of the clothes, who can see it, is this interesting?" In short, he thought of going home and returning home, which was also a manifestation of his lack of ambition. When the lobbyist heard him say this, he immediately shook his head and said sarcastically, "People say that the Chu people are monkeys and crowns, and this is indeed the case." This means that the Chu people have their own appearances, can not be greatly created, Xiang Yu was very angry when he heard it, he threw this lobbyist into the oil pot and cooked, such a short-sighted and narrow-minded Xiang Yu basically determined that his political color was getting darker and darker, and finally he also withdrew from the favorable position in the competition for the world until it died, and also made a favorable position for Liu Bang, people always have to change, become good or bad.
From the beginning of Liu Bang's inability to kill children and babies without greed for a moment and with foresight, it foreshadowed his lofty ideals and fought out the Han Dynasty.
Well, today's sharing ends here, and we'll see you next time
