At the end of the Qin Dynasty, heroes from all walks of life appeared. Among them, the most individual is the Liu Bang Group. Liu Bang, who has no strong family background, is a great talent who has both literature and martial arts, he is just an ordinary commoner, and he has reached his twilight years, how can he defeat the invincible Western Chu overlord Xiang Yu and create a Great Han Dynasty that spans four hundred years of history?
I think that among them, Liu Bang's own characteristics have played a crucial role.
Jianghu spirit
Liu Bang came from a humble background, his father and mother were farmers, living at the lowest level of society. He has a group of good brothers, such as Zhou Bo and Douba. After that, he became the chief of the Surabaya Pavilion. During this time, he met the butcher Fan Huan, the jailer Cao Shan, and the chief official Xiao He.
Regardless of their personality and social status, these people are willing to become Good Friends of Liu Bang and do things for him. The reason for this is that Liu Bang has a jianghu spirit in his body.
So, what is "jianghu morality"?
In my opinion, the so-called "jianghu spirit" is to share the hardships with friends when brothers and friends encounter difficulties, and they can take everything they have to help friends tide over difficulties, which has nothing to do with interests and is one of the most beautiful qualities in people.
On the way to Lishan mountain where Liu Bang was ordered to escort the criminals, Liu Bang and his party could not reach Lishan on time due to continuous rain, and the consequence of not reaching Lishan on time was to kill the head. The horizontal and vertical were all dead, so Liu Bang simply released the criminals, and he hid himself in a big mountain, and the criminals thanked Liu Bang for his great virtue and followed Liu Bang. This gave Liu Bang a chivalrous demeanor, and he dared to disregard the orders of the imperial court and disregard the dangers of himself and his family, giving the criminals a way to live. And this chivalrous style is also one of the "jianghu spirits" on Liu Bang.
It was this "jianghu spirit" in Liu Bang that made countless people willing to turn to Liu Bang's command to serve him. Whether it is Han Xin, Peng Yue, or Yingbu, this is the case.
With these people who are willing to serve Liu Bang, Liu Bang also has the capital to chase the deer in the world.
Eclectic in order to be able to use talent
Although he had the support of everyone, if Liu Bang would not know how to make good use of people, he would not be enough to break out of the heroic Chu and Han Dynasties.
The story of Liu Bang's worship of Han Xin as a great general must be well known. This is Liu Bang's second advantage - knowing people and making good use of them.
Han Xin can be said to be a wizard, and before Liu Bang reused him, he achieved nothing, just a small soldier in the Han army. Later, his unparalleled military ability was discovered by Xiao He, and in the process of Xiao He's recommendation to Liu Bang, Liu Bang also knew that Han Xin had excellent military ability. For such a military expert who achieved nothing but had excellent ability, Liu Bang finally chose to let him grasp the military power and lead the Han army out of Shu.
Liu Bang's worship of Han Xin as a great general was bound to cause dissatisfaction among Fan Duo and others. Because Fan Duo and others have always been one of the top generals in the Han Army, and Han Xin is just an unknown and unknown pawn, who has made no contribution to the Liu Bang clique. But it was under such circumstances that Liu Bang finally chose Ton xin as a general, because he knew that only this person could lead the Han army to the final victory.
Knowing people to make good use of them is the only magic weapon that Liu Bang can control many of the world's able subjects.
Reward talents with performance
Just putting the military generals under their command in the right position is not enough to make them fight for themselves. And Liu Bang's way to solve this problem is to reward talents with performance.
For those who have made outstanding contributions to the entire Liu Bang Group, Liu Bang will reward him without hesitation.
Han Xin broke through the Dynasty, attacked Zhao, Cut Yan, and surrendered Qi, and finally caused the Han army to form a siege of the Chu army; Peng Yue fought guerrilla warfare day and night behind the Chu army, so that Xiang Yu could not fight Liu Bang with all his strength; Chen Ping used a divisive strategy to make Xiang Yu's monarchs doubt each other, resulting in discord between The Xiang Yu clique.
The reason why the people under Liu Bang's command served Liu Bang so much must be the reason why Liu Bang judged his talents with his achievements. Because they can only work hard during the entrepreneurial period, they can get more benefits after the success of their careers.
Now there are some remarks on the Internet that Liu Bang is completely a villain, and he has to be favored by heaven to have a chance to defeat the Western Chu Overlord. In fact, this is completely untenable, there is no white pie in the sky, and the reason why Liu Bang will succeed is because he has this ability.
In fact, there are many reasons why Liu Bang created the Great Han, but the space is limited, and he can only write so much, and the rest will wait until later.
