Idiom story

Related characters: Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, Ban Gu related works: Hanshu at the end of the Qin Dynasty, a group of heroes came together, and all the volunteers shared a common hatred and overthrew the brutal rule of the Qin Dynasty. In 206 BC, Liu Bang led the army to attack Xianyang, the capital of Qin, and Prince Qin surrendered. However, because of his weak military strength, he was unable to compete with Xiang Yu, who was powerful. He only listened to the advice of fan Kuai and Zhang Liang, sealed up the warehouses of the Qin Dynasty, and made three rules to pacify the people. Then he withdrew from Xianyang and led his troops back to BA to stay, waiting for Xiang Yu to enter the city. After Xiang Yu came to Xianyang, he regarded himself as the leader of the rebel army. He learned the way that the emperor of Zhou enfeoffed the princes, and made a total of 18 kings of the old nobles of the six countries and the generals who had made contributions against Qin Dynasty. He called himself the overlord of the Western Chu, which means overlord. Liu Bang was granted the title of king of the Han Dynasty in the remote areas of Bashu (today's Sichuan Province) and Hanzhong (today's southwest Shaanxi and Northern Hubei). Although Liu Bang was very dissatisfied, he did not dare to argue with Xiang Yu, so he had to bring his 30000 troops and tens of thousands of people who were willing to follow him to Nanzheng (now Hanzhong City East, Shaanxi Province). Liu Bang's subordinates are all mainlanders. When they come to this remote and desolate place, they are all homesick. Almost every day, some people run away. Liu Bang is very anxious. At this time, Han Xin said to Liu Bang: "the king took the lead in attacking Xianyang. Originally, he made the greatest contribution, but Xiang Yu sealed you in such a place. It's unfair. The soldiers are looking forward to returning to their hometown day and night. You can take advantage of this homesickness to call on them to fight back to their hometown and compete with Xiang Yu for the world. You will win a great victory. " Liu Bang adopted Han Xin's suggestion and returned to the East. He really defeated Xiang Yu, unified the whole country and established the Han Dynasty.
