Zizhi Tongjian_Han Dynasty_Han Xin Worship General

First year of Emperor Han Gao (Yi Wei, 206 BC)

In the beginning, Han Xin, a Huaiyin man, had a poor family and no deeds, could not be elected as an official, and could not cure the life of a merchant, and often sent food and drink from people, and many people hated it.

At first, Han Xin, a Huaiyin man, grew up poor and did not cultivate good virtues, so he could not be elected to become an official, and he did not know how to do business and make a living, so he often followed others to eat idle meals, and most people hated him very much.

Letter fishing under the city, there are drifting mothers to see the letter hungry, rice letter.

Han Xin once went fishing under the city, and an old lady who was rinsing silk wool by the water's edge saw that he was hungry and brought him her own food to eat.

Xin Xi said to the drifting mother: "I will repay my mother with a heavy retribution." ”

Han Xin was very happy and said to the old lady, "I will definitely repay your old man's home heavily." ”

The mother was furious: "The eldest husband cannot eat himself, and I mourn the king and grandson and eat, and I hope to repay!" ”

After hearing this, the old lady was very angry and said, "The manly husband can't support himself!" I only pitied you to give you food to eat, is it because I want to get something in return? ”

The young man in the Huaiyin Massacre had a believer who said: "If you grow up, you will bring a sword, and you will be afraid of your ears." ”

A young man in the butcher's house in Huaiyin County insulted Han Xin and said, "Although you are tall and like to hang a sword and carry a sword, in fact, you are very timid in your heart." ”

Because of the insults of the multitude: "Faith can die, stab me, cannot die, out of my crotch!" ”

He took the opportunity to humiliate him in public: "Han Xin, if you are really not afraid of death, come and kill me." If you're afraid of dying, you'll have to get through my crotch! ”

So I believed in it, and I pulled out my crotch and put it down. Everyone in the city laughed and believed that they were timid.

Han Xin then carefully examined the young man for a moment, then leaned down, crawled to the ground, and drilled between his legs. At this time, the whole street market laughed at Han Xin and thought he was timid.

and Xiang Liang crossed the Huai, and the letter staff sword followed it. Under the command, there is no one to be known.

When Xiang Liang crossed the Huai River north, Han Xin went to him with a sword, so he remained as Xiang Liang's subordinate, where he remained unknown.

Xiang Liang was defeated, and it belonged to Xiang Yu, and Yu thought that langzhong was langzhong.

Later, after the defeat of Xiang Liang's soldiers, Han Xin returned to Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu made him Langzhong.

Count the number of dry feathers, feathers do not use. The King of Han entered Shu, and the chu who died in Chu returned to Han, with an unknown name.

Han Xin had offered advice to Xiang Yu many times for reuse, but Xiang Yu did not accept it. Liu Bang, the king of Han, entered Shuzhong, and Han Xin fled from the Chu army and submitted to the King of Han, where he was still unknown and only served as a petty official who received guests.

For Lian Ao, sit and chop. Thirteen of his generations have all been beheaded, and the second is the letter, and the letter is looking up, and it is appropriate to see Teng Gong, who knows: "If you don't want the world, do you care?" What is a chopper? ”

Later, Han Xin violated the law and should be sentenced to beheading, and the thirteen people who were in the same case with him had already been beheaded, and when it was Han Xin's turn, he looked up, just happened to see The Infant Ofegong Xiahou, and said: "Doesn't the King of Han really want to seize the world?" Why kill the mighty man! ”

Teng Gongqi's words, his appearance, his interpretation without chopping; and the language, the big talk, the words to the king. Wang Bai thought that he was a lieutenant of The Su Dynasty, and he was not surprised.

Teng Gong thought that his words were extraordinary, and when he saw that he looked like a tiger with a bear's waist, he released him without beheading him, and talked to him, feeling very happy, so he reported the specific situation to Liu Bang. Liu Bang then appointed Han Xin as the Governor of Zhisu, but still did not think there was anything peculiar about him.

Letter number and Xiao He language, He Qizhi.

Han Xin talked to Xiao He many times, and Xiao He felt that he was extraordinary.

From the King of Han to Southern Zheng, all the generals and soldiers sang and thought of the return of the East, and many of the dead.

By the time the King of Han arrived in Southern Zheng, all the generals and soldiers were singing songs of longing for their hometown, and many of them fled halfway.

How many times the faith has been said to the king, the king does not use it, that is, he will die.

Han Xin estimated that Xiao He and the others had already recommended him to the King of Han many times, but the King of Han still did not reuse him, so he also fled.

He heard that he believed in death, and he could not hear it, and chased after himself.

Xiao He heard the news of Han Xin's escape, and before he could report to Liu Bang, he personally went after Han Xin.

There is a saying to the king: "What is the death of the prime minister?" The king was furious, as if he had lost his right and left hands.

Someone told Liu Bang, "Xiao He, the prime minister, also fled. Liu Bang was furious after hearing this, as if he had lost his left and right hands.

On the first or second day, how to come to the king. The king was angry and joyful, and cursed Ho, "If you die, why not?" ”

After a day or two, Xiao He came to see Liu Bang. Liu Bang was overjoyed, and then scolded Xiao He: "Why did you run away?" ”

He Yue: "The subject does not dare to die, and the subject pursues the ear of the deceased." ”

Xiao He then said, "I don't dare to run away, I'm going to chase after the escapee." ”

Wang Yue: "Who is it that you are chasing?" ”

The King of Han then asked, "Then who are you chasing?" ”

He Yue: "Han Xinye." ”

Xiao He replied, "It's Han Xin." ”

Wang Fu scolded: "The generals will be counted in ten, and the public will not be pursued." Chase the letter, cheat also! ”

The King of Han therefore scolded again: "Among the generals, there are already more than ten figures who have escaped, and you do not chase them, but you say that you are chasing Han Xin, which is purely a lie!" ”

Ho Yue: "The generals will have easy ears." As faithful as the believer, the nation is unmatched. The king will want to grow up in the king and Hanzhong, and he will believe in nothing, and he will want to fight for the world, and he who has nothing to do without faith and nothing to do. Gu Wang Ce'an's ear was decided. ”

Xiao He said, "Those generals are easy to get. And a talent like Han Xin is indeed an outstanding talent unparalleled in the world. If you plan to claim the title of King of Hanzhong for a long time, there is certainly no place for Han Xin to be used; if you want to seize the world, I don't think anyone can plot a great cause with you except Han Xin. Now it's up to you to decide! ”

Wang Yue: "I also want to be in the east ear, and An Neng is depressed and dwells here for a long time!" ”

Liu Bang said, "Of course I want to go east, how can I stay here for a long time in a depressed mood!" ”

He Yue: "If you want to be east, you can use faith, and if you can use faith, you will stay; if you can't use faith, you will eventually die." ”

Xiao He took the opportunity to say, "If you are determined to develop eastward, if you can reuse Han Xin, Han Xin will stay; if you can't reuse him, he will eventually escape." ”

Wang Yue: "I am a public general." ”

Liu Bang said, "Then I will now look at your face and appoint him as a general." ”

He Yue: "Although it is a general, the letter is not left." ”

Xiao He said, "Even as a general, Han Xin still won't stay. ”

Wang Yue: "I thought it was a general." ”

Liu Bang said, "Then let him be a great general." ”

He Yue: "Fortunately! So the king wanted to call him to worship.

Xiao He said happily, "Great! So Liu Bang wanted to summon Han Xin to come and grant him an official position.

He Yue: "Wang Su is slow and rude. Worship the great general now, as if calling on the little child, this is the faith so go also.

Xiao He said, "Great King, you are arrogant and rude, and now you are going to worship the Great General, but it is like greeting a child, which is the reason why Han Xin wants to leave."

The king will worship him, choose a good day, fast, set up an altar, and give a liturgy. "Wang Xuzhi."

If you plan to grant him an official position, then choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, a routine fast, set up an altar and square for worship, and prepare various ceremonial facilities for worship. Liu Bang agreed to Xiao He's request one by one.

All the generals rejoiced, and everyone thought that they were great generals. To worship the great general, Han Xinye, all the armies were shocked.

All the generals were very happy when they heard the news, and everyone thought that it was themselves who had won the position of general. However, when it came time to appoint the great general, it was found that it was Han Xin, and the whole army was surprised by this.

After believing in the prayer, sit up. Wang Yue: "The general counts the words of the general, why does the general teach the widow to plan?" ”

After the ceremony of paying homage to Han Xin was completed, Liu Bang returned to his seat and said, "The Prime Minister has praised you to me many times, what strategy will the general take to teach me?" ”

The letter thanked him, because he asked Wang Yue: "Isn't it King Xiangye who is now fighting for power in Dongxiang?" ”

Han Xin first gave in, and then took the opportunity to ask the King of Han, "Now go east to fight for the world, isn't your opponent Xiang Yu?" ”

King Han said, "Yes." ”

Liu Bang said, "It's him." ”

"The Great King thinks of himself, brave and benevolent, and King Xiang?" ”

Han Xin also said, "Great King, if you think about it yourself, how is it compared to Xiang Yu in terms of bravery, strength, benevolence, and strength?" ”

The King of Han was silent for a long time, and said, "It is better to be also." ”

Liu Bang was silent for a long time and said, "I am not as good as him." ”

The letter said, "But the letter also thinks that the king is inferior."

Han Xin then prayed twice and praised, "I also think that the Great King is inferior to him in these aspects."

If the minister tastes things, please say that the king of Xiang xiang is also a man.

However, I used to work as an errand boy under Xiang Yu, so now let me tell you about his personality!

King Xiang secretly 噁 (ě) 咤, thousands of people are abolished, but can not be subordinate to the sage generals; this Tepif's brave ear.

When Xiang Yu shouted angrily at the people, thousands of people were frightened to stay aside, but he could not appoint a virtuous general; this was the so-called courage of The Pifu.

King Xiang saw people, was respectful and loving, his words were vomited, and people were sick, and they wept and shared food and drink; and even those who made people, who had meritorious deeds, wán bì, could not bear to give; this so-called benevolence of women was also.

Xiang Yu treats people with respect and love, his words are gentle and considerate, and when others are sick, he will shed tears and distribute his food to the sick; but when the person he appoints has made meritorious deeds and should be knighted, he holds the seal that has been engraved in his hand, and he is so hornless that he is reluctant to give it to others, which is what people call the benevolence of a woman!

Although King Xiang ruled the world and subordinated the princes, he did not live in Guanzhong but was in Pengcheng; he betrayed the covenant of the Emperor of Righteousness, but loved the princes and princes of the king, and was not even; he chased after his former lord and the king and his generals, and moved the Yi Emperor to Jiangnan; all that passed was destroyed, and the people were not close to him, and they were robbed of Wei Qiang'er.

Although Xiang Yu dominated the world and made the princes vassals, he did not follow Guanzhong but built the capital Pengcheng; he reneged on his agreement with The Righteous Emperor Huai and divided all his loyal and favored generals into kings, and the princes were indignant; he also expelled all the monarchs of the original princely states, and the generals who became the princely states were kings, and also expelled the Yi Emperor to Jiangnan; there were no places where he led his army that were not destroyed by poison; the common people were unwilling to be close to him and dependent on him, but were only reluctantly overwhelmed by his power.

Although the name is hegemonic, it really loses the heart of the world, so it is easy to be weak.

All kinds of signs have caused him to be a hegemon in name, but in fact he has lost the hearts of the people of the world, so his strength is easily weakened.

Now the great king can do the opposite, let the world be brave, why not be cursed!

Now, If you can really do the opposite, appoint the world's brave and good warriors, where is there any opponent that cannot be eradicated?

With the world's city to seal the hero, why not be convinced!

If the city under the heavens is rewarded to the meritorious ministers, where will anyone be dissatisfied?

Soldiers who return from Sidong with righteous soldiers, why not disperse! Moreover, the king of the three Qins was a General of Qin, and he killed qin's sons for several years, and the slaughter was incalculable; and he deceived his people to surrender to the princes, and to Xin'an, the king of Xiang deceived Qin into surrendering more than 200,000 people, and only Handan, Xin, and Feng (yì) were freed.

Use righteous military action to obey the soldiers who are worried about returning to the east, where is there any enemy that cannot be crushed and defeated? Moreover, the three kings who were divided in Qin were all generals of the Qin Dynasty, and they had led the people of the Qin Dynasty to fight for many years, and there were countless subordinates who had been killed and fled; later they deceived their subordinates and surrendered to the princes' army, and as a result, when they arrived in Xin'an, there were more than 200,000 Qin soldiers who were deceived by Xiang Yu and buried alive, and only Zhang Handan, Sima Xin, and Dong Feng were able to escape.

Father Qin complained about these three people and the pain fell into the bone marrow.

Qin Di's fathers and brothers did not resent these three people, and the hatred was so painful that it was painful to the bone marrow.

Now Chu Qiang was the king of Wei, and Qin Min Mo Aiye was also. When the Great King entered Wuguan, Qiu did no harm; except for the Harsh Law of Qin, there were three chapters of the Law of Covenant with Qin Min; and the Qin People all wanted to get the Great King Qin.

But now Xiang Yu relied on his own prestige and forcibly crowned these three people as kings, and no one in the people of Qin Land would love them. When you marched into Wuguan, Qiu did not infringe on it, and also abolished the harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty, and made three chapters of the law with the people of Qin, and the people of Qin did not want you to be king in Guanzhong.

In the covenant of the princes, the great king was the king of Guanzhong, and the people knew it; the great king derelicted his duties and entered The Qin people hated it. Now that the great king has raised the east, the Three Qins can be passed on to determine the lord. ”

Moreover, according to the original agreement with the princes, it is also a matter of course for you to be the king of Guanzhong, which is well known to the people of Guanzhong. You lost your deserved throne and went to Hanzhong, and the people of Qin did not resent it. Now that the Great King has sent troops to the east, as long as you issue a requisition document to the land of the Three Qins, you can easily settle it. ”

So the king of Han was overjoyed, thinking that he had received the letter late, so he listened to the letter and deployed the generals to attack. He Xiao collected rent from Ba and Shu and gave grain to the army.

Liu Bang was overjoyed by this, and realized that it was too late to get Han Xin as a talent, so he immediately obeyed Han Xin's plan and deployed the tasks that the generals wanted to attack, leaving only Xiao He to collect taxes from the counties of Ba and Shu to supplement the supply for the army.
