Han Xin, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, an outstanding military figure, one of the three masters of the early Han Dynasty, and the only prince in history who has done it.
Han Xin
Early fall
In his early years, Han Xin was a commoner, bohemian, poor, and did not produce, and after his mother died, he had no money to bury, and he often sent people to the fence and relied on others to make ends meet. He once defected to the chief of a pavilion, and the wife of the chief of the pavilion hated him, so Han Xin left. He once went fishing in the city, was received by an old woman, and delivered food every day for dozens of days. A young man in Huaiyin City bullied Han Xin and said, "Although you are tall and like to wear swords, you are actually very timid!" And publicly humiliated Han Xin, saying, "If you are not afraid of death, stab me with your sword; If you are afraid of death, crawl under my crotch. So Han Xin stared at the young man carefully, then bent down and crawled under his crotch. This is the humiliation of the crotch
The world was in chaos, and he joined the army
With the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in Dazexiang, peasant uprisings broke out in various places, and when Xiang Liang led his troops across huaishui to the north, Han Xin went to him with his sword and became a nobody under Xiang Liang's men. Later, he threw xiang yu again, but did not have to be reused, and switched to Liu Bang. Because he was about to be beheaded, he was fortunately rescued by Xiahou Bao, and recommended ren Zhisu Du.
Han Xin chatted with Xiao He many times, and Xiao He greatly appreciated his talent. The Han army arrived in Southern Zheng, and dozens of the generals escaped in the middle of the road. Han Xin considered that Xiao He and others had recommended him to the King of Han many times, but they still could not be reused, so they also fled. Xiao He heard that Han Xin had fled and hurried to catch up. Due to the rise of the river, Han Xin wandered by the river and was finally caught up by Xiao He. Li Bao Han Xin was a great general and left Han Xin behind, and Liu Bang, under the persuasion of Xiao He, soon set up a general platform and worshiped Han Xin as a great general, and Han Xin embarked on the peak of his life.
Meritorious service
After Han Xin was made a general, he began the Eastern Expedition for Liu Bang, leading an army out of Chen Cang, Ding Sanqin, Wei, Broken Dynasty, Zhao, Yan, and Qi, until he completely annihilated the Chu army, without a single defeat, and made immortal merits for the founding of the Han Kai. The most famous of these is the Battle of the Backwaters, a rare battle in history in which few victories are won. Han Xin led his army to confront the Zhao army head-on, and at the same time ordered 10,000 troops to deliberately turn their backs on the river and line up in a one-line formation to lure the Zhao army; then sent two thousand light cavalry, each holding a Han army flag, to go around the back of Jingxingkou Mountain overnight, and when the Han army and the Zhao army launched a fierce battle the next day, when the Zhao army camp was empty, let the two thousand Han troops raid the Zhao camp, pull out the Zhao army flag, and replace it with the banner of the Han army. The Zhao army was calculated, driving the Han army to the river, the Han army had no way to retreat, put it to death and live later, bravely killed the enemy, the Zhao army retreated and found that the camp was occupied, in a dilemma, the army was in chaos, in the chaos, the King of Zhao was captured.
In the Battle of Xiaxia, Han Xin ordered the Han army to sing Chu songs at night, and the Chu army thought that the Han army had exhausted the Chu land, and the morale collapsed. The Chu army was completely annihilated, Xiang Yu only led 800 horses to break through, and only more than 100 horses were left in Huaishui, and the Han army pursued them closely, and finally Xiang Yu killed himself in Wujiang, and a generation of tyrants came to an end.
End with hatred
The Chu-Han War ended with Liu Bang's victory, and Liu Bang finally won the world, and at this time, Liu Bang had begun to be jealous of Han Xin and seized his military power. Later, Xiao He conspired with Lü Hou to trick Han Xin into the palace and kill him. Before han xin died, he said, "I did not use the scheme of Pu Tong, but was deceived by a woman, is this not providence?" Lü Hou then exterminated the Han Xin clan. It can really be said that Xiao He also failed Xiao He, and Han Xin would not have thought that in the end, Xiao He would have buried himself.
Historical anecdotes
Legend has it that Han Xin passed under a tree and came across a naughty boy digging a bird's nest in a big tree on the side of the road, and when the naughty boy saw Han Xin, he peed on Han Xin in the air. Han Xin looked up, and instead of getting angry, he said to the child, "You pee so well!" Let me cool down a little, come, give you a few copper coins. Xiang Yu chased Han Xin past the tree, and the child peed on Xiang Yu's head, only to be killed by Xiang Yu's sword.
