Video Clip: Top 10 Women in Power

Liu Bang, a street ruffian.

This is the evaluation given by Sky Mirror.

In Wu Chen's eyes, this rogue emperor, like Zhu Yuanzhang of Ming Dynasty, can be said to be a reckless hero who has transformed into an empire ruler.

These two emperors were able to leave a strong mark in the history of China, not only because of the wonderful ups and downs of fate, but also because of the thrill of the little people going to the world.

Moreover, the most important thing is the art of leadership, the vision and courage to know people and make good use of them.

In this regard, Zhu Yuanzhang did well, and Liu Bang did better.

Knowing people and being good at assignments is a word we often talk about.

To know people and be good at tasks, the first is to know people, and the second is to be good at tasks.

Knowing people is firstly about confidantes, and secondly about knowing the enemy. This is very difficult.

But Liu Bang did exactly this, and he also knew very clearly what the most important ability of a leader is and how to mobilize the enthusiasm of his subordinates.

What are the talents of the subordinates, what is the personality, what are the characteristics, and what position should be placed in the most suitable position.

This is the main reason why leaders are leaders.

A hands-on leader is never a good leader.

As a leader, if you want to truly master a group of talents, put them in proper positions and let them maximize and fully exert their enthusiasm and role.This is Liu Bang's favorite truth.

Although Liu Bang is not a very good person, he still has a good grasp of people's hearts.

Liu Bang used Han Xin to lead the troops and asked Zhang Liang to conspire. After using Xiao Hebao, everything in the Han army was arranged in an orderly manner, and Liu Bang became a core of his group because of this.

After doing these things, he stayed in the tent all day. Of course, the most important thing he still liked to follow were the suggestions of these ministers and advisors.

This is Liu Bang's biggest advantage.

He uses talents eclecticly, and this is when Liu Bang is more popular than Xiang Yu.

So Liu Bang's team has everyone in it, Zhang Liang is a nobleman, Chen Ping is a tourist, Xiao He is a county magistrate, Fan Kui is a dog butcher, Guan Ying is a cloth dealer, Lou Jing is a coachman, Peng Yue is a robber, Zhou Bo is a drummer, Han Xin is an unemployed youth.

It can be said that there are all kinds of people.

Liu Bang combined them, he didn't care if people said that he was a motley army, what he asked was that all talents could play their roles to the maximum.

History has proved that Liu Bang's employment strategy is correct.

And in Liu Bang's team, there are many people who used to work under Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu was too domineering, so many people couldn't stay any longer, so they ran to join Liu Bang.

For these former enemy troops, Liu Bang didn't have any concerns. Instead, he opened the door, regardless of past suspicions, and welcomed them equally.This is undoubtedly the biggest buy-in.

Among these celebrities are Han Xin and Chen Ping.

Han Xin was originally a member of Xiang Yu's subordinates, because he could not play a role under Xiang Yu's subordinates, he came to Liu Bang.

Chen Ping traveled more roads. Chen Ping was originally a member of the King of Wei. He first defected to King Xiang.

Liu Bang didn't have any official airs, but treated these people frankly.

This not only reflects Liu Bang's quality problems, but also shows his personal charm.

For these talents, what they need is not much money and property, but respect and trust.

Liu Bang knew that to retain talents, one must respect them.

The only way to respect these talents is to treat them with sincerity.

Liu Bang has this advantage. People like Zhang Liang, Han Xin, and Chen Ping, if they have any questions to discuss with Liu Bang, ask questions, Liu Bang will answer them all truthfully, without telling lies.

Zhang Liang got the news before the Hongmen Banquet, saying that Xiang Yu would send troops to destroy Liu Bang the next day. Zhang Liang once asked Liu Bang, can the king beat Xiang Yu?

Liu Bang's answer was "It's not as good as solid".

Later, when Han Xin came to Liu Bang's army, he also asked such a question, saying, is your ability better than Xiang Yu's in weighing your own?

Liu Bang still confessed frankly, "It's not as good as it is."

The reason why these people were able to help Liu Bang come up with his own strategy was because Liu Bang had a premise, that is, to tell the truth and never hide it. If he trusted the other party in this way, he would get the same return from the other party and do his best to help him make suggestions.

After Chen Ping joined Liu Bang from Xiang Yu's army, he gained Liu Bang's trust and dissatisfied many of Liu Bang's old followers, so some people went to Liu Bang to speak ill of Chen Ping, but Liu Bang still insisted on entrusting Chen Ping with important tasks.

At that time, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were in a stalemate, and no one could eat the other. In order to allow Chen Ping to successfully implement countermeasures, Liu Bang allocated [-] catties of gold to Chen Ping, and he did not ask about his income. flat trust.

From another point of view, Liu Bang's employment technique is a typical emperor's technique. On the one hand, you seem to have no doubts about his employment, but on the other hand, he is extremely suspicious in his stomach, but he is suspicious quietly.

But he is clever, this is the general rule of all so-called effective monarchs, and Liu Bang is not alone.

After Liu Bang conquered the world, he rewarded the meritorious officials according to their different achievements. Not only did they reward Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Han Xin, Peng Yue, etc., but he also rewarded the person he disliked the most—Yong Chi.

It is precisely because he can trust talents, use talents, fully mobilize their enthusiasm, and secretly prevent and control them, so that all the talents in the world at that time are gathered around him, forming an optimal combination.

Liu Bang used Han Xin to also bear the responsibility for his mistakes in employing people. Han Xin's position was different from that of other people. Han Xin was appointed as a general, and the general was in charge of fighting.

In the chaos of the late Qin Dynasty, military power was the capital that the princes relied on to fight for hegemony, and it would not be easily given up to others.

For example, Chen Sheng sent his general Wu Chen to attack Zhao, and after taking Chen Sheng with his soldiers and horses to capture Zhao, he made himself king of Zhao, and he was equal to Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng had no choice.

Liu Bang is not Chen Sheng, so he will not easily hand over the military power to others. Even if there are more and more troops under him, Liu Bang's ability to control the army is the strongest among all the princes in the late Qin Dynasty.

There is no evidence to prove that Liu Bang gave Han Xin military power immediately after worshiping Han Xin as a general.

In the battle of Ding Sanqin, there is no record of Han Xin leading the army to fight, and in the battle of Pengcheng, there is no record of Han Xin leading the army to fight. All orders come from Liu Bang.

In fact, in the battle between Ding Sanqin and Pengcheng, although Liu Bang worshiped Han Xin as a general, but at this time Liu Bang was still testing Han Xin's ability, and decided that the battle of Sanqin was a strategy provided by Han Xin, which is also found in history books record:

"Historical Records Gaozu Benji": In August, the king of Han used Han Xin's strategy to return from the old way and attack Yongwang Zhanghan.

Han Xin provided the strategy, and Liu Bang was responsible for the specific implementation. Judging from the results, Han Xin was only a combat staff officer at this time.

Han Xin has no military power, and other generals under Liu Bang have more or less combat records, such as Fan Kuai:
This is the record of Fan Kui leading an army to participate in the battle alone, but Han Xin does not have it. The same record is also found in Han Xin's biography:

"Historical Records of the Marquis of Huaiyin": In August, the King of Han sent troops out of Chencang to the east, and established the Three Qin Dynasty.In the second year of the Han Dynasty, he went out of the customs and took over Wei and Henan. The kings of Han and Yin all surrendered.Together Qi and Zhao attack Chu.In April, as far as Pengcheng, the Han soldiers were defeated and dispersed.Xinfu sent his troops back to Xingyang with the King of Han, and defeated Chu Jing and Suo again. Therefore, the soldiers of Chu could not go west.

If Liu Bang wants to test Han Xin, he should give him an army to lead the army to fight, and test while fighting to prove whether Han Xin is a talent, but Liu Bang obviously did not do this.

This shows that Liu Bang actually hid Han Xinxue.

Although Han Xin was a great general at this time, in fact, Liu Bang did not reuse him.

Liu Bang was defeated in the battle of Pengcheng, and then the Han army was defeated for thousands of miles. It was not until they fled to the land of Jing and Suo that they stabilized their positions. Jing and Suo were near Xingyang.

At this time, there are records of Han Xin leading the army to fight. Han Xin recovered the defeated soldiers and joined Liu Bang in Xingyang, and then defeated the Chu army in Jing and Suo.

Han Xin was only one of the generals who participated in the battle of Jingsuo, and there is no direct evidence that he was the commander.

Although he was a general, he only led a Han army to participate in the battle of Jingsuo, and this was the first time Han Xin really led an army to fight alone. The reason why Han Xin had this opportunity was because Liu Bang was defeated in the battle of Pengcheng. Following Zhang Liang's suggestion, Zhang Liang suggested that Liu Bang reuse three people, namely: Han Xin, Yingbu, and Peng Yue.

"Historical Records of the Family of Liuhou": Liang Jin said: Jiujiang King Tingbu, Chu Xiao general, and Xiang Wang have Qie;If you want to donate it, if you donate it to these three people, then Chu can break it.

Zhang Liang said to Liu Bangjin: "Wang Yingbu of Jiujiang is a strong general of Chu State, and there is a gap between him and Xiang Yu."

Peng Yue and Qi Wang Tianrong rebelled against Chu in Liang.

Among the generals of the King of Han, Han Xin is the only one who can entrust important affairs and be alone.

If you want to abandon these places, give them to these three people, then Chu State can be defeated.

So at this time Han Xin really had the opportunity to lead the army alone.

Liu Bang had always followed Zhang Liang's advice, but Li Shiqi gave Liu Bang a bad idea of ​​enfeoffing the princes of the world. After Zhang Liang heard about it, he immediately persuaded Liu Bang that this plan was wrong, and Liu Bang immediately followed suit.

This shows that Liu Bang can tell whether his opinions are correct or not. Although he occasionally makes mistakes, Liu Bang can quickly correct them.

After the Battle of Jingsuo, Liu Bang appointed Han Xin as Prime Minister Zuo, and led an army alone to attack Wei Wang Wei Bao.

So, from then on, Han Xin began to fight alone. It was not until this time that Han Xin really got rid of Liu Bang and led the army alone.

But Liu Bang's control over the army cannot be underestimated.

General Kong, General Fei, Guan Ying, and Cao Can all fought with Han Xin under Han Xin. These people are Liu Bang's confidantes and are more loyal to Liu Bang.

Once Liu Bang's entire army was wiped out in Xingyang, Liu Bang and Xia Houying entered Han Xin's barracks, then entered Han Xin's bedroom, and took away Han Xin's military power. Kill Han Xin, Han Xin is already dead.

Liu Bang was able to enter Han Xin's barracks and bedroom smoothly, which shows that Han Xin's subordinates knew Liu Bang.

With Han Xin's level of army management, it is unlikely to make such a low-level mistake. This only shows that Liu Bang has planted eyeliners and cronies in Han Xin's army, and these people are loyal to Liu Bang.

All supplies for Han Xin's army were provided by Xiao He. Han Xin was only responsible for running the army and fighting wars, and Xiao He took care of logistics supplies and soldiers.

Therefore, Han Xin's army is not a completely independent army. At the same time, Liu Bang provided Han Xin with recruits. Once Han Xin trained the recruits into veterans, he was recruited by Liu Bang, and then provided recruits.

Liu Bang used Han Xin as a training camp for recruits, and at the same time prevented Han Xin from cultivating cronies. This is also Liu Bang's method of controlling the army.

Therefore, Liu Bang never really gave Han Xin the military power, and Liu Bang has been guarding against Han Xin.

Xiao He, a fellow from the same county and a former colleague who came from the same county as Liu Banglian, had no military power and knew everything about him, let alone Han Xin, whom he was not familiar with.

Later, although Kuai Tong persuaded Han Xin to stand on his own feet, in fact Han Xin had no conditions to stand on his own. Han Xin knew that once he stood on his own, he would die without a place to bury him.

In fact, Han Xin's final ending was tragic, which is closely related to Liu Bang's methods when he was in Han Xin, and Han Xin's political performance was enough to make Liu Bang suspicious.

Although Han Xin's military talent is extremely outstanding, he is powerless in front of Liu Bang's way of employing people. Just like Monkey King cannot escape Wuzhi Mountain of Tathagata Buddha, Han Xin has not been able to escape Liu Bang's Wuzhi Mountain from beginning to end.
