It can be said that without Zhang Liang, there would be no Han Dynasty of Liu Bang.

It can be said that the growth of the Western Han Dynasty is closely related to Zhang Liangna. If we want to understand Zhang Liang's life story, we have to start from the beginning. Zhang Liang Zifang was born in 250 BC, and it can be said that he was the most prominent of the three masters of the early Han Dynasty. His ancestors served as the minister of state for five generations in Korea, so Zhang Liang received a very formal poetry and etiquette from a young age, and in the end, he was the chosen one of the Korean national ministers. And Zhang Liang is not only from a noble background, but also looks as beautiful as a woman, and is simply a rich and handsome. In this way, Zhang Liang spent his youth in his thousands of favors. The private servants devoted all their wealth to the anti-Qin cause, bent on avenging Korea. In 218 BC, Zhang Liang exhausted the Wanguan family property, bought a strong man, built a large iron cone weighing 120 pounds for this strong man, and sent people around to find out the whereabouts of Qin Shi Huang's eastern tour, preparing to assassinate Qin Shi Huang. When the car of the eastern patrol drove to Bolangsha, Zhang Liang, who had been ambushed in advance, commanded Da Shi to use a large iron cone to smash towards the most luxurious car in the convoy. Although the passenger died when he was smashed, Qin Shi Huang had long been prepared for repeated assassinations, so he often changed cars and survived. Do you know what allusions to this story come from? After the incident, Qin Shi Huang was furious and ordered the arrest of the culprit throughout the country.33 Zhang Liang had to change his name and surname, wandering to the next batch, from a fledgling aristocratic boy to a complete wanderer, but it was also his experience of wandering in the next batch that allowed him to grow rapidly. One day a year later, Zhang Liang walked to the head of the Yishui Bridge and met an old man wearing a coarse cloth short robe, this old man deliberately took off his shoes and threw them under the bridge, and then arrogantly sent Zhang Liang to pick up shoes for himself, picked up shoes without speaking, and raised his feet for Zhang Liang to put on for himself. Thanks to the momentary downfall Zhang Liangqiang suppressed his anger, in line with the view that more is better than less, he carefully helped the old man put on his shoes, and endured the old man's unreasonable difficulties many times, which was the priceless treasure called the Taigong Art of War. During his ten years of wandering, Zhang Liang carefully studied this book, which laid a solid foundation for helping Liu Bang to plan in the future, and at the same time, his wandering career also gave Zhang Liang insight into the basic sufferings of the people, thus strengthening his determination to overthrow the Qin dynasty. 2000 BC. In 09, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up in Daze Township and raised troops against Qin, and anti-Qin forces in various places also surged up. The 42-year-old Zhang Liang gathered more than 100 people at this time and raised the banner of anti-Qin. However, because he was lonely and could not stand on his feet, Zhang Liang led his people to join the king of Chu, who had just been supported by Xiang Yu, but who knew that he was cut off by Liu Bang halfway. As soon as the two saw each other, Zhang Liang repeatedly offered advice to Liu Bang with the art of war of the ether gong, and Liu Bang was able to understand it immediately. Therefore, Zhang Liang decisively changed his plan to defect to the king of Chu and decided to assist Liu Bang. A year later, the ranks led by Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew had grown to as many as 70,000, and they summoned the leaders of the rebel army to discuss important matters in Xuecheng. Zhang Liang, who did not forget to revive Korea, offered advice to Xiang Liang, allowing him to support the Hengyang Army as the king of Han, taking the opportunity to become the majority of the hengmen of the Chu state. In this way, Zhang Liang achieved his goal of returning to Korea, and became the Situ of Korea as he wished, which is equivalent to the prime minister. But King Han's army. However, in the battle to regain the lost territory, he fought a tug-of-war with the Qin army, and was unable to open the situation. And Liu Bang was also promised by the king of Chu that whoever entered the pass first would be established as king. In 207 BC, Liu Bang led his troops to capture Yingchuan, joining forces with Zhang Liang and the Han king Liu, and then captured dozens of cities in the Qin state. Liu Bang asked King Han to stay in the former capital, and Yang Zhai took Zhang Liang to continue his march south. Under Zhang Liang's strategy, Liu Bangbing took Wancheng without bloodshed, lifted his steps, entered Guanzhong, accepted the jade seal of the kingdom offered by Prince Qin's baby, and retired to dominate the three chapters of the covenant, thus taking the initiative in the battle for hegemony with Xiang Yu. In 206 BC, Xiang Yu led an army to break through the Hangu Pass, intending to fight Liu Bang. Zhang Liang took advantage of his friendship with Xiang Yu's uncle Xiang Uncle. Liu Bang came up with a plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the cauldron, so that Liu Bang could retreat in the Hongmen banquet. Soon after, Xiang Yu bullied the weak, established himself as the overlord of Western Chu, fixed the capital at Pengcheng, and according to his own habits, divided 18 princes, and Liu Bang was naturally sealed to the most remote and desolate Bashu and became the king of Han. What's more, Xiang Yu also divided the land of Guanzhong into three, and the three of the Qin Dynasty wanted to use this to strangle Liu Shang. Before Zhang Liang opened Liu, he gave Xiang Bo all the gold and silver treasures given by Liu Bang, and asked him to persuade Xiang Yu to seal Liu Bang with the Hanzhong region, and also suggested that Liu Bang lead the Han army and burn all the plank roads, indicating that there was no intention of the east, in order to eliminate Xiang Yu's suspicions, and at the same time take the opportunity to recuperate and wait for the opportunity to cut the grand plan again. This is why Zhang Liang and Han Xin joined hands in the future, a bright burning plank road, and a historical story of darkness Chen Cang. However, the innocent King Han was killed by Xiang Yu because of this, and Zhang Liang had to defect to Liu Bang. was sealed as. Cheng Xinhou was 45 years old at the time, so Xiang Yu's killing of King Han also indirectly helped Liu Bang a lot. In 205 BC, Liu Bang successively captured five princes and kings, with 560,000 soldiers, and took advantage of Xiang Yu's opportunity to concentrate his forces on attacking Tian Rong and captured the capital of the State of Chu. However, Liu Bang, who was carried away by the victory, soon suffered a great defeat to Xiang Yu, and the troops who returned had to flee with Zhang Liang and dozens of other horses. Fleeing to the subconscious, the frightened Liu Bang was already discouraged and thought that the general trend was gone, but Zhang Liang offered the famous Xiayi conspiracy at this most critical time, first plotting against King Yingbu of Jiujiang, and then sending envoys to contact Peng Yue, and then sending Han Xin to attack Yan Zhao and other places, outflanking the Chu army, and combining inside and outside, and finally turning the situation of the Chu-Han War around. A year later, Han Xin defeated Longju and destroyed the Chu army of 200,000 Han troops, completing a strategic detour of the flank of the Chu army. In 203 BC, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were bounded by a chasm and divided the world. Just as Liu Bang was preparing to withdraw his troops, Zhang Liang saw Xiang Yu's situation of being overstretched by the enemy with a deepening of his strategy, and suggested that if Liu Bang let Chu return to the east, it would be like releasing a tiger back to the mountain, and there would be endless trouble. So Liu Bang adopted Zhang Liang's advice, tore up the covenant, and personally led the army in pursuit. Xiang Yu saw that Han Xin and Peng Yue were slow to send troops, and Zhang Liang knew the mystery of this, so he asked Liu Bang to seal the land at the cost of sealing land, and finally let Han Xin and Peng Yue lead the army down, and the five-way army trapped Xiang Yu to the bottom, and finally killed himself in Wujiang. A year later, Liu Bangzheng held a celebration ceremony in Luoyang Nangong and a banquet for the ministers. Han Xin, Zhang Liang, and Xiao He were considered by Liu Bang to be the greatest heroes of the Han Dynasty, so these three were called the Three Masters of the Early Han Dynasty by later generations. Liu Bang even praised Zhang Liangdao's strategy in the tent, decisively winning thousands of miles away, saying that he was inferior to Zhang Liang, and under Zhang Liang's persuasion, he fixed the capital in Guanzhong, and wantonly divided it. The stability of the Han Dynasty was ensured. At this time, Zhang Liang was 48 years old, strategizing in the drapery, decisively winning thousands of miles away, and also became the highest evaluation of future strategists. In the brutal struggle of King Xing, Zhang Liang also followed the principle of doing things without being practical and rarely participated in meetings. In the brutal struggle within the royal family, Zhang Liang scrupulously abided by the unintentional instructions and saved his life. It was not until 197 BC that there was a new crisis in the Western Han Dynasty, and Liu Bang sensed that Empress Lü had a different intention and showed signs of wanting to die in exile, so he wanted to make him crown prince. Seeing that her son's position as crown prince was not secure, Empress Lü hurriedly asked Zhang Liang for help. Zhang Liang believed that the world was determined, the foundation of the Han Dynasty's rule was not yet solid, and only by going with the status quo and ruling without doing anything could the world be stable, so he told Empress Lü that he could only invite him. Shangshan No. 4 can save the prince, and this Empress Lu really invited the four old men down the mountain to assist the prince. Liu Bang saw that the crown prince had been sealed, so he never mentioned the change of subordination again, and Empress Lü also respected Zhang Liang even more. A year later, King Yingbu of Huainan rebelled, and Liu Bang personally went to suppress it, allowing Zhang Liang to assist the crown prince in acting for the imperial government, and Zhang Liang rarely came out to discuss matters. Zhang Liang died in 186 BC at the age of 65. When Zhang Liang was discussing meritorious deeds in his life, he resigned from the fiefdom of 30,000 households and Shiyi, and chose to become a marquis in the place where he and Liu Bang first met. When the Han Dynasty regime became more and more stable, he retreated from self-examination, abandoned all things in the world, concentrated on cultivation, and saved his life, which led to the current Liuhou Temple, which became one of the rare advisers in Chinese history and was emulated by later generations.
