The Three Emperors and Five Emperors of Daode, with the name of Xia Hou Shang Zhou. Qingshi has several lines of names and surnames, and countless barren hills in the north. Welcome to the Hundred Families of History, get close to historical figures, and feel the life of hundreds of families. In this issue, we introduce you to a generation of famous people - irrigation babies.
Dou Bao, date of birth unknown, died in 176 BC, Sui (sui) Yang people, now Henan Province Shangqiu people, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty. Of course, regardless of age or merit, douba can only be regarded as a small brother compared with Xiao He, Cao Shan, Han Xin, Zhang Liang and other big men, but when these big brothers have stepped off the stage of history, douba has become the protagonist, after Liu Bang's death, he became the Dinghai god needle that destroyed Zhu Lu and saved Liu's surname Jiangshan, because of his meritorious service, he was appointed by Emperor Wen of Han as a chancellor and became the elder brother of a number of civilian and military generals. Let's start at the beginning.
It is said that in the last years of the Qin Dynasty, Chen Shengwu revolted, and the whole world changed. At this time, the irrigation baby was just a small merchant engaged in selling silk in his hometown of Henan. In the face of such chaos, the douba did not immediately roll up his sleeves and carry the knife and gun, but with the sensitive sense of smell of a businessman, he has been observing and waiting for the opportunity. There are so many factions of the rebel army, and the leaders are also mixed, and the irrigation baby has to turn to a promising leading big brother. Finally, one day, he clearly saw that Liu Bang was a rising star, and it was the Lord in his heart, so he took the initiative to approach Liu Bang and expressed his red heart. Maybe the businessman can talk, maybe the two people have the same eye, in short, Liu Bang immediately took in this irrigation baby who was not a fellow countryman, and also called the little brother affectionately, making him his close attendant.
What has to be admired is that Liu Bang does have the ability to identify Maxima. After Dou Bao followed Liu Bang, the transformation from a merchant to a soldier was very fast, and soon in the two battles of Chengwu and Baoli, he was promoted to the rank of Seventh Doctor with his military merits; then after the battles of Kaifeng and Quyu, Dou Bao had become Xuanling Jun; and finally by the time Liu Bang successfully invaded Guanzhong and destroyed Qin, Dou Bao was again named Chang Wenjun.
Judging from the knighthood that dousers advanced so quickly, it can only prove one thing, he is indeed a natural general, so he can make such a great achievement in such a short period of time. After all, famous generals such as Cao San, Fan Duo (kuai) and other famous generals under Liu Bang were only knights with the same titles as douba babies at this time, and these people had already participated in the revolution. The young douba can be said to be the brightest general of the young generation cultivated by Liu Bang, and it seems to be the brightest star in the sky.
Objectively speaking, in the early Han Dynasty, when cattle people were born, there was a sample of irrigation babies, and if he ranked second and no one dared to rank first, this was to lead cavalry combat.
In 205 BC, Liu Bang's Han army and Xiang Yu's Chu army fought in the Battle of Pengcheng, and Xiang Yu defeated 560,000 Han troops in half a day with a division of 30,000 troops, and Liu Bang suffered the biggest defeat since the beginning of the army. After analyzing the reasons for the failure, it turned out that the cavalry was weak and vulnerable! In the face of Xiang Yu's powerful cavalry force, Liu Bang knew that the Han army must also organize such a cavalry unit, otherwise it would be powerless to resist. Who's going to lead? Liu Bang selected the young douba. After the formation of a cavalry unit, in less than a few months, the Infant Irrigation first broke the Western Chu cavalry Xiangguanbu at Luxia, then the Western Chu King's Wu army in Yanxi, and then the Huan Infant's troops at Baima. This series of battles completely suppressed the offensive of the Western Chu cavalry. Since then, there have been no cavalry in the entire Central Plains to compete with the irrigation babies. Liu Bang was overjoyed, and promoted the infant to the rank of Imperial Grand Master, ranking first among the secretaries of state.
At this time, the age of the irrigation baby was not yet thirty years old. Therefore, it is said that Han Xin is a young talent, in fact, the irrigation of babies is not nothing less, at least in cavalry combat, the irrigation of babies is not inferior to Han Xin at all.
In addition, the irrigation of babies is not only a famous military general, but also a political mind. After Liu Bang's death, the world of the Great Han was held in the hands of Lü Hou, and she made many Lü family members kings, among which Lü Lu and Lü Chan, two nephews, controlled the military and political power in the dynasty. Lü Hou also drove and killed Liu's descendants and old ministers, and there were only a few left, and because he was not Liu Bang's concubine, he escaped the disaster.
In 180 BC, Lü Hou died, Zhu Lü had monopoly power, Lü Lu the King of Zhao was appointed as a general, and Lü The King of Lü was appointed as Xiang Guo, plotting to launch a rebellion and usurp Liu's Jiangshan. Liu Bang made his eldest son Liu Fei the King of Qi, and at that time Liu Fei was no longer there, and it was his eldest son Liu Xiang who was in charge of the State of Qi. Liu Xiang heard that Lü Chan and Lü Lu were plotting to rebel and led his troops to kill Ben Chang'an. Lü Chan and Lü Lu sent troops to meet the attack, and the commander chosen was the veteran irrigation. They promised to the infants: "You are of high moral standing and invincible, and the court has ordered you to go on a campaign, and I believe that you will definitely destroy the rebel thief." On the day of returning to the master, the imperial court will rely on you even more. Some people advised him not to be a commander, saying: "After Liu Shi was a high ancestor, they were not accustomed to what Zhu Lu did, so how could they be considered traitors?" Whether you succeed or fail, you will be saddled with the name of aiding and abetting abuse, and you should try to quit it. The infant said, "If I disobey my life in person, I will die a small thing and mislead the state." If they reassign others, there will be a big fight. Before the infant was about to leave, he had a secret conversation with Zhou Bo and other old ministers: "Although Liu Xiang is nominally a traitor to the imperial court, he came to the Lü family and stood on the same line with us. I am out with my troops, and the Beijing Division will rely on you. ”
The irrigation infant led the troops to Xingyang, and was ordered to be stationed on the spot and not to move forward. The irrigation baby sent someone to hint to Liu Xiang, the purpose of your coming is to destroy the Lu family, and our old guys are also ready to do something to them, let's not hurt and be angry, first rest and rest. In this way, the army of the State of Qi stopped at Xingyang and stopped advancing.
Not long after, Zhou Bo, the grand lieutenant of the Jing Division, and Chen Ping, the chancellor, joined forces to hunt down Lü Chan at Weiyang Palace, and then wiped out the Lü family. Together with Chen Ping, Zhou Bo, and others, Dou Bao established Liu Heng, the Emperor of Han, to succeed him. Because of his meritorious service, he took the post of lieutenant, and later after Zhou Bo's abdication, he officially ascended to the post of chancellor.
It took a full thirty-two years to go from Liu Bang's little brother to today's extremely popular minister and reached the peak of his life. Although the hero is late, the irrigation baby is not willing to retire. In the last period of his life, douba also staged a wonderful scene of attacking the Huns. We know that all along, the Xiongnu in the north have been eyeing the Central Plains and harassing them many times. In 200 BC, Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, was even besieged by the Xiongnu regiment at Baideng Mountain, which is today's Datong City in Shanxi Province, and for 7 days and 7 nights, he completely cut off contact with the main force, but thanks to Chen Ping's dedication, he was able to escape from danger. After the Battle of Baideng, the Xiongnu even humiliated the Han Dynasty in every way. Why were the Huns so cattle? Because his cavalry was fierce, rampaged, and invincible. Many of our descendants are familiar with the unique style of Wei Qing and Huo Toyi in the period of Emperor Wu of Han and the xiongnu. However, the earliest cavalry war launched by the Western Han Dynasty against the Huns did not begin with Emperor Wu of Han, but began when Emperor Wen of Han was the main general. In the third year of Emperor Wen of Han, the Xiongnu invaded again, Emperor Wen of Han ordered Xiang Xiang to go out on a campaign, and the dying douba baby with a seriously ill body personally led 85,000 cavalry to attack the Xiongnu in the north, and the Xiongnu Right Sage King was forced to flee out of the plug, and the Han army won a great victory. After the irrigation baby participated in this unprecedented war against Hungary, less than half a year, he died of illness.
We believe that the infant before death must not be willing, if he is a few years younger, with his ability, with a well-trained cavalry, he may not be able to trample on the Huns and seal the wolf. Unfortunately, no matter how big the hero is, he can't withstand the ruthlessness of the years. In 176 BC, in December of the fourth year of Emperor Wen of Han, he died of infant disease, and the imperial court gave him the title of Marquis of Yi. A generation of famous generals and famous faces have fallen.
Well, today's generation of famous people - irrigation, we will talk about this, thank you. Welcome to search and follow today's headlines, WeChat public account, Himalaya "Historical Hundred Family Ancestral Hall".
