In the 11th year of the Western Han Dynasty, Han Xin was tricked into going to the capital by Lü Hou and Xiao He and died in the Changle Palace. Before dying, he shouted, "Regret that you did not obey The Strategy of Pu Tong, started an army against Liu Bang, and was deceived by a woman and a child today, is this Providence?" "Then why didn't Han Xin choose to divide the world with Xiang Yu and Liu Bang in the first place?" At that time, Han Xin had a heavy army in his hands.
After killing the famous general Long Ji of the Chu State, Han Xin completely pacified the State of Qi, and At this time Xiang Yu was very passive, so he sent a lobbyist Wu Shi to persuade Han Xin to divide the world into three parts and dominate qidi, but Han Xin did not hesitate to refuse. Soon, Ku Tong also began to persuade Han Xin to establish himself as king, analyzing that Liu Bang was a person who could not share the blessings, taking advantage of the fact that he now had heavy troops, and it was the best time to divide the world with Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, and Han Xin also refused on the grounds that Liu Bang did not treat him thinly.
Is this really the reason? I don't think so. On the surface, Liu Bang treated Han Xin not thinly, entrusting heavy responsibilities and giving heavy troops, before Han Xin had always encountered a wall in the Chu camp, and many times he gave Xiang Yu a plan and did not get attention. However, if you carefully study the situation when Han Xin first arrived at Liu Bang's camp, you will find that Liu Bang at that time also looked down on Han Xin, which has the allusion that Xiao He chased Han Xin at night. All this was because Liu Bang had asked han xin, so when Han Xin asked for the title of "false king" of Qidi later, Liu Bang stomped his feet and scolded Han Xin for taking advantage of the fire to rob him, liu Bang has never regarded Han Xin as his own, and also used the brothers brought out by Pei County to restrain Han Xin. This point Han Xin is very clear, so why doesn't he oppose it?
On the surface, Han Xin was holding the world's heavy troops, and it seemed that thousands of soldiers and horses responded to him as soon as he raised his arm, but the reality was not so simple. If you carefully study the generals under Han Xin, you will find that many people are Liu Bang's concubines, and what they really obey is Liu Bang's orders, such as Dou Bao and Cao Shen, who have always controlled Han Xin, these two people lead the cavalry and the other with infantry. This was one of the most important reasons why Han Xin did not react, he had no way to completely control these subordinates, but he just had the right to give orders.
Another reason is that Han Xin thinks that he has worked hard and achieved great feats, and even if Liu Bang does not let himself be called the King of Qi, he will let himself start and end well. However, what he did not expect was that the last to kill him were Lü Hou and Xiao He. It is really cheng also Xiao He defeated Xiao He! It is said that after Liu Bang returned to the capital that year, he was both happy and pity for Han Xin after learning this news.
