Author: Wang Zeren
Xiang Bo, the younger uncle of Xiang Yu, the king of Chu, followed his brother Xiang Liang and nephew Xiang Yu on a crusade to the west, and ding the world, and he had his share of merit in the Battle of Julu and the Battle of Advancing into Guanzhong, thus gaining the trust of his nephew Xiang Yu.
When Xiang Bo was young, he and Zhang Liang were close friends, and both of them were good at ren and often traveled together. After Xiang Bo committed murder and fled everywhere, it was heard that Zhang Liang became a national first-class wanted criminal because of his failure to assassinate Qin Shi Huang, hiding in Xia Pi (northwest of present-day Suining, Jiangsu), Xiang Bo then defected to Zhang Liang and left, the two called brothers and brothers, ate the same table, slept in the same bed, and had a deep friendship.
The two did not hide for long in Xia Pi, and the whole world rose up one after another, and everywhere rose up. Xiang Bo then defected to the Xiang family army, and Zhang Liang eventually served Liu Bang. All the rebel forces followed the agreement of the allied commander-in-chief that "the first to enter Guanzhong is the king", and all wanted to enter Guanzhong first, and finally Liu Bang became the lucky one, he was the first to ascend, and the first to lead the army to occupy the capital of the Qin state, Xianyang, and Xiang Yu delayed the entry time because of the decisive battle with the main force of the Qin state in the Battle of Julu.
Liu
Liu Bang occupied Hangu Pass and wanted to prevent the various princes' troops from entering the pass, but when Xiang Yu heard about it, he was furious and ordered 400,000 troops to prepare to teach Liu Bang a lesson the next morning. In terms of strength at that time, Xiang Yu wanted to destroy Liu Bang, just like stepping on an ant. But at this critical moment, a person changed the direction of history, and this person is the protagonist of this article, Xiang Bo.
Xiang Bo learned that Xiang Yu was going to attack Liu Bang, thinking that his good friend Zhang Liang was still working in Liu Bang's company, and remembering the grace of taking zhang Liang alive in that year, Xiang Bo wanted to save Zhang Liang from danger, so he quickly stepped up his whip that night and ran to Liu Bang's company to meet Zhang Liang privately, explaining the situation, hoping that Zhang Liang would leave with him, so as not to die tomorrow without a place to die.
Zhang Liang, a man who has always been loyal and righteous, at this time, how could he disregard the leader's life and run away without permission? He immediately reported the matter to Liu Bang and introduced Xiang Bo to Liu Bang. Liu Bang is an old fox, when he saw Xiang Bo, he had great respect for him, the mountain treasures and sea flavor were entertained, and personally toasted, calling Xiang Bo a brother, calling himself a younger brother, there was a great sense of seeing each other and hating the evening, Xiang Bo did not expect Liu Bang to be so kind to himself, so he gladly accepted Liu Bang's warm and beautiful intentions. Zhang Liang was accompanied by zhang liang, the three of them drank and talked, and they were happy, and through the intention of drinking, Liu Bang followed Zhang Liang's prior instructions and said to Xiang Bo: "The younger brother occupied Guanzhong not for himself, but for the sake of General Xiang Yu, I was afraid that the other princely troops would enter the pass and wantonly loot and destroy, so I guarded Hangu Pass and waited for General Xiang. How dare I betray the Great General and do such a great rebellion? I hope that my brother will clarify the misunderstanding for me in front of General Xiang and say a few kind words for me, and the younger brother is very grateful! ”
Zhang liang
Xiang Bo was drunk at this time, and even nodded his head and promised to intercede for Liu Bang, and warned Liu Bang that he must personally go to Xiang Yu's military camp early tomorrow morning to apologize, and leave other things to him to settle down. The three of them dispersed, and Liu Bang also made a kiss with Xiang Bo as a sign of intimacy.
Xiang Bo returned to the company, immediately visited Xiang Yu, excused Liu Bang, and said: "If Liu Bang had not broken through the pass first, how could you have driven straight in, General?" Nowadays, people have great merits, but we go to attack him, which is a great injustice, and it is better to treat Liu Bang kindly. Xiang Yu also felt quite reasonable, and then it was up to Liu Bang to see how he behaved.
Early the next morning, Liu Bang kept his promise and personally came to apologize to Zhang Liang. At the banquet, Xiang Yu's father Fan Zeng, bent on killing Liu Bang, ordered Xiang Zhuang to dance the sword to help Him, with the intention of assassinating Liu Bang; Xiang Bo saw the situation, he also drew his sword and danced, and sheltered Liu Bang with his body, making it impossible for Xiang Zhuang to assassinate him closely, and Liu Bang was finally able to escape from danger, and Xiang Bo was indispensable.
Xiang Yu entered Guanzhong and divided the world, and Liu Bang was made the King of Han and ruled the area around Bashu. Before leaving, Liu Bang wanted the land of Hanzhong, so together with Zhang Liang, he bribed Xiang Bo on a large scale, hoping that Xiang Bo would intercede in front of Xiang Yu and give Him Hanzhong land; Xiang Bo was greedy for money and gladly accepted it, so he persuaded Xiang Yu to give Hanzhong to Liu Bang, and Liu Bang got his wish and occupied the key strategic frontier for his future return to Guanzhong.
Xiang Yu
After Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought for supremacy, the two armies confronted each other at Xingyang, holding each other for several months and exhausted. At this time, the Liang king Peng Yue rebelled against Xiang Yu, invaded Xiang Yu's rear several times, cut off the Chu army's grain routes, Xiang Yu was anxious, wanted to quickly solve Liu Bang, and in desperation, pulled Liu Bang's father Liu Taigong out, wanting to cook him in front of the two armies, in order to threaten Liu Bang to surrender. Who knew that Liu Bang was very calm, it was not the same thing at all, and he said to Xiang Yu with a hippie smile: "We are brothers, my father is your father, if you want to cook our father, you eat meat, remember to give me a cup of soup!" ”
Xiang Yu was so angry that he scolded, and Xiang Bo, who was standing aside at this time, explained: "The situation in the world is not yet known; moreover, how many people who aspire to the world will take care of their families?" Even if the general killed Liu Bang's father, what good would it do? It's just a futile increase in misfortune. Xiang Bo's words are simply nonsense, killing Liu Taigong, although there is no benefit, but why is there a disaster? However, Xiang Yu did not know why, as long as it was uncle Xiang Bo's words, he always felt that it was very reasonable, and every time he obeyed his words, Liu Taigong was able to survive.
After five years of rivalry between Chu and Han, Liu Bang finally defeated Xiang Yu and established the Han Dynasty. In order to thank Xiang Bo for saving his life at the Hongmen banquet and his righteousness to Liu Taigong's survival in Xingyang, Liu Bang made Xiang Bo the Marquis of Sheyang and gave him the surname liu as a token of gratitude.
If Xiang Yuquan knew about it, it was estimated that he would die blindly, and he would definitely be angry with Xiang Bo, and his nostrils would smoke; with the temper of the overlord, he would like to slaughter this uncle who had forgotten his ancestors and ate inside and outside. Unfortunately, Xiang Yu was confused and arrogant before he was born, such a big traitor and a big spy was around, but he didn't know it, but he was doubly close and trusting, which can only be said to be self-inflicted!
Ze Ren Yue: Ancient People's Cloud: Sheyang is not related to the old Hou Hou, and the rise and fall of chu and Han is unknown. Xiang Bo yu Han is meritorious; Yu Chu, then sinful! In private, he is the uncle of the overlord; in terms of publicity, he holds an important position in the Chu state; but he does not think of doing his best, but he is opposed to Han, and the public and private are not separated, this is an internal thief, and he belongs to the disloyal and unrighteous!
