In the eyes of many people, the view of Liu Bang as a person is very bad, thinking that he is just a bastard, and the establishment of the dynasty is all because of the great strength of his subordinates. This view is very one-sided, if an emperor is such an image, then how can he become an emperor? Therefore, many people underestimate Liu Bang as a person.
In the early years, Liu Bang was really just a jerk. He came from a peasant family and had a relatively low starting point, so it was impossible for him to do something at the beginning. But Liu Bang is a very smart person, he has lofty ideals, and when he was a jerk, he made a lot of friends and expanded his network.
There are records in history that Liu Bang was very fond of Wei Wujie, the Prince of Wei, and went to Wei Wujie when he was thirteen or fourteen years old. It can be seen that Liu Bang is very idealistic, and he needs a platform to help him. It was just that his luck was bad, and after receiving Wei Wujie's notice, Wei Wuji died.
Fortunately, Liu Bang was not discouraged, he heard that Wei Wuji's friend Zhang Ershi was a foreign Yellow Ling, and was recruiting customers, so he took this opportunity to run to Zhang Ershi's place and became good friends with Zhang Ershi. The difference between the two of them is eight years, and it is not a simple matter to become good friends, indicating that Liu Bang's communication skills are still very strong and he knows how to deal with people. After Liu Bang became emperor, he also betrothed his daughter Xu to Zhang Ershi's son, and the two married each other.
I think Liu Bang's strongest ability is to know how to get along with others, have affinity, and be able to use personal connections to increase his own strength. There are historical records that Liu Bei and the peng pawn doorman can play together and talk about homely routines, which shows that he does not have a distinction between high and low. Later, Liu Bang met Xiang Yu, who was proud and arrogant, but in a short time he married Liu Bang as a brother. Not only that, Xiang Yu's relatives and friends and Liu Bang also get along very well, and Liu Bang is really a person who cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, as an emperor, you need to have foresight and talent, and although Liu Bang has these abilities, although they are not very prominent, his affinity is beyond doubt. There was once a Confucian named Han Sheng who said that Xiang Yu was a Mu monkey and crowned, and was boiled alive by Xiang Yu. If you change it to Liu Bang, the consequences may not be so serious, at most it is just scolding back.
Therefore, there is a saying that "the most powerful emperor in the Han Dynasty was Liu Bang." "It's still convincing!"
