Social background can also be understood as a person's growth experience. What a person experiences in his life directly determines his character, then his behavior, and finally reflects his success or failure.
If you want to say why Liu Bang became emperor, you have to say Xiang Yu. Only by comparing the two can we know the advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, the following respectively from the behavior, personality, social background to analyze the gap between the two.
Behavior:
1. Liu Bangxian entered the customs. According to the previous agreement of the King of Chu, "Wang Zhi was the first to enter the customs", so Liu Bang took the lead in public opinion: Xiang Yu did not respect Liu Bang, the first to enter the customs, which made some people more inclined to "wronged" Liu Bang.
2. Xiang Yu's mistake in sealing the king. It seems that it is a wonderful idea to keep Liu Bang in Hanzhong. Don't you know that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it can be used as an ideal rear area? In addition, the land of Sanqin outside Hanzhong was given to the old general of Qin who was incapable of leading troops (compared with Liu Bang's men, they were incompetent). Doesn't this mean giving Sanqin directly to Liu Bang?
3. The number of counselors. Liu Bang's men, Han Xin, Sean and Xiao He, are all famous figures in history. These four people can be said to be the perfect combination of the founding monarch and ministers, a perfect match in history. Look at Xiang Yu. There is only one Fan Zeng around, and he still suspects others, so he can be unbeaten.
4. Liu Bang loved the people and Xiang Yu slaughtered the city. Liu Bang equates people everywhere, and caresses them everywhere. Xiang Yu, on the other hand, regarded the former people of Qin as enemies and slaughtered them everywhere! How can everyone support a tyrant like Qin and not the benevolent Lord?
Personality:
1. Liu Bang is cunning and Xiang Yu is straightforward. Liu Bang is a man who dares to lie with the cheek. For example, after the demarcation of the Chu-Han-Honggou, it was originally agreed and understood, but we went back on our word and continued to fight. For example, Xiang Yu said that he would kill Liu Bang's father, but Liu Bang actually said that he would divide me. In the cunning and straightforward duel, the cunning wins, and the straightforward gets its name!
Liu Bang can endure what ordinary people can't. Before the Battle of Gaixia, Liu Bang asked Han Xin for help. Han Xin was still a general of Liu Bang, but he wanted Liu Bang to make him a fake king! You know, Liu Bang was the king at that time! Don't you want to be an equal with your master? However, Liu Bang actually agreed. When Chu and Han confronted each other, Xiang Yu provoked many times, but Liu Bang was unmoved and showed extraordinary endurance. I was sealed to that remote place in Hanzhong (now, it is not bad to go to Hanzhong. But at that time, Liu Bang really didn't want to go, but he could accept it silently. The patience of all this is the foundation for Liu Bang to finally break out, seize the Sanqin, and then pacify the world.
Liu Bang knows how to be a good person. Knowing people means that Liu Bang can see a swift horse, instead of taking away the great talent Han Xin like Xiang Yu. Being kind means that Liu Bang can retain talents. After listening to Xiao He, he worshipped Han Xin as a general and talked with Sean all night. When Han Xin and Peng Yue came to help Liu Bang fight Xiang Yu, Liu Bang greeted him with the ceremony of welcoming Wang. These are far less than Xiang Yu. Who doesn't want to talk to such a master? All the talents in the world have been taken in by Liu Bang, but how can they be safe?
Liu Bang himself is extremely tough. Liu Bang is the most powerful opponent among the founding emperors in the whole history of China! Throughout history, who is the most admirable loser? Beating such a powerful opponent is not necessarily smooth sailing. Liu Bang experienced failures and setbacks, far behind other founding emperors. But no matter how difficult Liu Bang encountered, he never thought of retreating! Liu Bang never gave up until he became king, and was sealed in Hanzhong. The battle of Pengcheng was defeated by 50,000 to 60,000 allied forces. In order to escape, he almost abandoned his son. His father and wife were captured by the other side and forced to be an official by their own people. This is the most worthy advantage of Liu Bang's character for our generation to learn, that is, a heart that never gives up! As long as there is breath, we will struggle.
Social background:
1. Why does Liu Bang know that people are good at their duties? Liu bang was born in the dirt, and his own strength was insufficient. Who does he rely on instead of his people? In other words, it is not that Liu Bang is willing to know people and be good at their duties, but that he, a farmer, wants to be an emperor and has to know people and be good at their duties! On the other hand, Xiang Yu, after Xiang Yan, a famous soldier of Chu, became a noble son and a worthy corporal, which is not as good as a common people!
2. Why did Liu Bang win the hearts of the people? Wherever Liu Bang went, he never made mistakes, in sharp contrast with Xiang Yu. The fundamental reason is that Liu Bangben was born in cloth and knew the sufferings of the people. I am a common people, so of course I know what kind of monarch the common people want, and then I will do what the common people think. But Xiang Yu, after becoming a general, is naturally invincible in the world, but to win the hearts of ordinary people, he is not as good as Liu Bang, who is a common people! Therefore, Liu Bang became popular because of his birth. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.
3. Grasp the overall situation of the world! This is an original point of view, please listen carefully.
China at that time, the wheel of history at that time, was no longer suitable for the warlord regime. Since Qin unified China, unified writing, weights and measures, currency and other things, the unification of China has been the general trend. Historical inevitability, right? The historical inevitability at that time meant that China should establish a unified feudal country, rather than continue to maintain a state of separatism. If you meet this inevitability, you will win, otherwise you will fail.
Liu Bang, an old farmer, became the leader of a group of people. What does he want to do next? There is no doubt that it is to continue to climb and climb to the highest. The highest position is undoubtedly the emperor. In other words, Liu's ultimate goal is to be an emperor! And Xiang Yu? After Xiang Yan, a famous Chu star, he just wanted to destroy Qin for Chu and six countries, that's all! He became famous as a descendant of the Six Kingdoms, which determined that his ultimate goal was to destroy Qin and then restore the Six Kingdoms! No, that's all. That is to say, Xiang Yu didn't even want to be emperor! The fundamental reason why Liu Bang wants to be emperor and Xiang Yu doesn't want to be emperor is that their social backgrounds are different! Imagine, in a battle for the throne, can a person who never thought of being an emperor defeat a person who always believed that he could be an emperor?
Different understandings of the overall situation of the world (Liu Bang thinks that the world belongs to the emperor alone and Xiang Yu thinks that the world belongs to the princes) make their attitudes towards each other very different! It can be said that Xiang Yu has many opportunities to directly kill Liu Bang before the next trip. But why didn't he do it? The fundamental reason is that Xiang Yu felt that the society at that time should be a society where the heroes were separated. As one of the princes, Liu Bang is an enemy, but his existence is acceptable! Liu Bang, on the other hand, thinks that the world belongs to one person, and I can't tolerate you being an enemy of Xiang Yu, so Liu Bang, who has only one chance to kill Xiang Yu, firmly grasped that opportunity. Xiang Yu, who killed Liu Bang many times, often couldn't bear to do it.
King with the world, die against the sky! Now that I think about it, the defeat of overlord is really not a war crime, but the death of overlord!
I have written so much, I wonder if Vivian will read it all in her busy schedule. I dare say that in the whole Baidu, no one has a deeper analysis of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu than me!
