He is known as the most learned, the most proficient in employing people, and the most proficient in warfare in history, but at the same time, because his ability is too strong, he leads to the fact that he fights the world too smoothly, so his sense of existence in history is extremely low.
He is known as the chosen son by many people, and even because of his "luck", he is called the son of the plane.
He is the ninth grandson of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu is also one of the very few emperors who can build the country into a prosperous era after the founding of the country.
When Liu Xiu was born, it is also rumored that a red light shone into the room he was in, and his father Liu Qin asked people to divinate before learning that it was a symbol of good fortune.
Also from this year, the place where Liu Qinfang planted sedum grew millet, there are three plants in total, each millet has a stem and nine ears on it, and it is longer than ordinary millet, so there is the name "Liu Xiu".
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, due to the promulgation of the Tui'en Decree, after the death of the princes and kings, not only the eldest son could inherit the throne, but the other sons could also divide a part of the kingdom and call the liehous.
So when it comes to Liu Xiu's father's generation, he can only be a petty official like a county magistrate, but at least he still has an official position and still has some small power.
When Liu Xiu's father died, Liu Xiu was only nine years old that year, so he could only send people under the fence and chose to live with his uncle Liu Liang.
In the last years of Wang Mang, due to the overly radical reform, a large-scale peasant uprising broke out, and Liu Xiu was also in the list of uprisings, wanting to restore the Han dynasty.
At that time, the world was in turmoil, and the peasant armies in various places rose up, and after learning Liu Xiu's idea of raising troops, he was stopped by Liu Liang, but the surname Liu did not listen, and still chose to raise troops against recklessness, and finally Liu Liang was forced to take the whole family to follow Liu Xiu and join the anti-reckless column.
With the continuous growth of the rebel army, Liu Xiu's brother Liu Xiu even shouted the slogan of "restoring the cause of the ancestors, determining the eternal future", and the children of the Nanyang clan also rebelled with the Liu Xiu brothers at that time.
During this period, Liu Xiu's brother Liu Xuan was supported by the generals of the Green Forest Army as the "First Emperor", although Liu Xiu was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but at this critical moment, in order to prevent the army from being disheartened, and facing the common goal of recklessness, he could only endure it.
After Liu Xuan was proclaimed as the first emperor, he began to establish his own regime, and began to crusade against Wang Mang under the banner of reviving the Han Dynasty.
But such a big movement made Wang Mang feel uneasy, so he dispatched 420,000 troops, led by Wang Xun and Wang Yi, to completely annihilate the emerging regime of the First Emperor.
Faced with an army of 400,000, Liu Xiu's army was forced to retreat to Kunyang, but his troops were less than 10,000 at that time, and the local number was 40 times that of him.
In desperation, Liu Xiu could only let the army defend Kunyang, and he asked for help overnight, and finally led 17,000 elite soldiers to Kunyang to support.
In the battle of Kunyang, Liu Xiu, as a general, personally led the charge and mobilized the morale of the army.
Seeing that the general trend had gone, the morale of the Han army led by Liu Xiu became more and more vigorous, although the number was superior, but the new army led by Wang Yi had long lost the courage to fight, and they chose to flee for their lives.
Eventually, when they fled to the river, hundreds of thousands of the new army were drowned on the way to cross the river because of the swelling of the river, and the new dynasty was declared doomed.
Unexpectedly, after the fall of the new dynasty, Liu Xuan, the first emperor, killed Liu Xiu's brother Liu Xuan for no reason, just because Liu Xuan repeatedly made military exploits, and his prestige gradually overwhelmed the momentum of the first emperor.
Although Liu Xiu was grief-stricken, he knew in his heart that the next one might be himself, so in order to prevent being killed without being charged, Liu Xiu could only endure the humiliation.
Although he made great contributions in the battle of Kunyang, Liu Xiu did not have any plans and ideas to invite merit and rewards, and even said that Liu Xiu was killed, it was his own fault, his brother's mistake, and his own fault.
Seeing this, the first emperor Liu Xuan had no excuse to punish Liu Xiu, and even named Liu Xiu as the Marquis of Wuxin, but Liu Xiu knew very well in his heart that sooner or later, he would kill himself because of Liu Xuan's suspicion and fear that he would be the master of his high achievements.
At that time, the power of the first emperor was not yet stable, and the forces in Hebei still needed someone to appease him, and the best candidate was naturally Liu Xiu.
However, Zhu Kun strongly opposed Liu Xuan's attempt to appease the forces in Hebei, because Liu Xiu's performance in the war against recklessness was too good, and he was worried that Liu Xiu's departure would threaten the position of Liu Xuan, the first emperor.
But except for Liu Xiu, it seems that there is no second person who can appease the Hebei area, and in the end it was Liu Xiu who went, and Liu Xiu already had a plan to overthrow the first emperor at this time.
On the way, only Deng Yu of Liu Xiu also hoped that Liu Xiu could personally establish the great cause of Gaozu, thinking that Liu Xuan's reign would not last long, and only Liu Xiu could save the people of the world.
At this point, Liu Xiu's determination to overthrow the first emperor was even stronger, and he established his own power, which was once so great that the first emperor felt threatened.
In order to prevent Liu Xiu from overthrowing him, Emperor Gengshi ostensibly gave him the title of King Xiao and asked him to return to Chang'an to accept the reward, but in fact he wanted to take the opportunity to control Liu Xiu and force him to hand over his military power.
Liu Xiu naturally knew what Emperor Geng Shi was thinking, so he refused to return to Chang'an on the grounds that Emperor Gengshi had not yet completed his Hebei affairs.
At this point, Liu Xiu and Emperor Genshi completely tore their faces, and Liu Xiu collected rebels everywhere in Hebei, got rid of the control of Genshi Emperor, and finally expressed himself in order to re-establish the Han family, so he took "Han" as the country and called the emperor. Subsequently, Liu Xiu swept Guanzhong, pacified Longxi, attacked Sichuan and Shu, and spent twelve years after ascending the throne to reunify the fragmented China caused by Wang Mang.
After the reunification of the world, due to decades of war, the economy was hit hard again, and the people suffered heavy casualties, so Liu Xiu implemented many policies to rule the world with "judo", alleviating the crisis in the last years of the Western Han Dynasty, and making the period of his rule reach an unprecedented prosperity.
