Liu Bang was a famous civilian emperor in history, who fought all the way from a small pavilion chief to the founding emperor. The following Sinology Talk Xiaobian will bring you a detailed introduction, let's take a look at it.
You know, the uprising is a very difficult road, not an overnight thing. If it fails, it may affect the family. There are many uprisings in history, the reasons are not to be said, it is certain that the people cannot survive.
However, like Li Yuan's army to establish the Tang Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin's yellow robes were added, and these people were either nobles and powerful. Or a general with thousands of troops and horses.
But for Liu Bang, none of this was there, he was just a small pavilion chief. Liu Bang originally had nothing, how did he grow up?
We know that the system of the Qin Dynasty was ten miles for pavilions, and ten pavilions were townships.
Liu Bang mixed up such a position, the official position is not high, but he also got to know too many people, many later famous figures, are old acquaintances of this period. For example, Xiao He, Cao Shan, Fan Duo and so on.
Liu Bang's wife was Lü Shi, the daughter of Lü Gong, named Lü Yan. Before he could embark on the path of insurrection, the two men married. On this point, it is said that Lü Gong likes to show people, and he believes that Liu Bang will definitely get ahead in the future, so he married his daughter to this potential stock.
I have to say that this guy is really a bit accurate in looking at people.
Since he was the chief of the pavilion, his main duties were to arrest bandits, apportion servitude, and collect money and grain. When Liu Bang started his family, there was a group of prisoners under his command and several brothers who lived and died, and there was nothing else.
After Chen Sheng's wuguang uprising, the world was in chaos. At that time, Peixian was also surging with undercurrents. PeiXian Ling also wanted to respond to the uprising, and Xiao He and Cao Shan, who were Pei County officials at the time, suggested that the county order should bring back the exiled people in the county, which could improve the success rate.
At that time, Liu Bang already had hundreds of people in his hands, and he was naturally the focus of the gathering, but the county commander was afraid that Liu Bang would not be able to control his return, and if he did not get it right, he would be killed by him, which was equivalent to attracting wolves into the house.
Later, the people killed the county order, and Liu Bang returned to Pei County. Then, since the uprising had started, it was important to have a leader, and at that time, Xiao He and others were just civilian officials, and they did not have this ability. The so-called Xiucai rebellion did not succeed for three years.
Therefore, everyone elected Liu Bang as the leader, and it is also because of this that Liu Bang embarked on the road of uprising.
After that, it is natural to expand their own power. However, this process was not smooth, especially in the early days, Liu Bang's rebel army encountered trouble, and later, Liu Bang defected to Xiang Liang, who was very famous in the rebel army at that time, and there were many subordinates, and Liu Bang became a general under Xiang Liang.
Xiang Liang was a descendant of the original Chu nobles, and at the suggestion of Fan Zeng, he established Xiong Xin, the grandson of King Huai of Chu, as king of Chu during the Warring States period. After Xiang Liang's death, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu became the main opponents.
Xiang Yu also tried to get rid of Liu Bang many times, but in the end he did not succeed. While expanding his power, Liu Bang's Western Expedition even invaded Xianyang and destroyed the Qin state.
Later, in the Chu-Han war, Xiang Yu was completely eliminated and the Han Dynasty was established.
