Who have contributed a lot to the Lord in history but died a worthy death? How do they keep their heads?
Many emperors took back the military power of many generals in order to keep their country and strengthen centralization. I was afraid that the competent generals would not accept it, and in order to put an end to future troubles, I did not hesitate to kill the generals who had the honor to accompany me to lay the country. After all, "a bird hides its bow, but a sly rabbit cooks its dogs." As long as your country can sit still, you don't care about those generals. Han Xin, a soldier fairy, was hanged by Lv Hou. However, some generals are too clever to escape the king's murder.

1. Wang Jian, a great soldier of Qin State.

Wang Jian, together with Bai Qi, Li Mu and Lian Po, became the four famous soldiers in the Warring States Period. We all know that the Qin Dynasty destroyed six countries and unified the whole country. But three of them were destroyed by Wang Jian! Like father, like son, Wang Jian's son Wang Ben destroyed two countries! So the Wangs destroyed the five kingdoms. It is enough to see how great Wang Jian's exploits are. Even Ying Zheng is afraid of such a powerful person. Fortunately, after Wang Jian succeeded, he abdicated and handed over all the military power. The father and son can finish the job well and spend their old age peacefully.

2. Zeng Guofan, a famous minister in Qing Dynasty

We are all familiar with Zeng Guofan. He was a minister of the Qing Dynasty. He established the Xiang Army and wiped out the remnants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. It can be said that Zeng Guofan was also a man who made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. Later, many people repeatedly advised Zeng Guofan to rebel, because the Xiang army led by Zeng Guofan had a good climate at that time, which was enough to fight against the Qing army. But Zeng Guofan was not greedy, but refused one by one. Also because Zeng Guofan was loyal to the Qing Dynasty, he died from beginning to end.

Many ministers don't do it because of greed for power. How could the emperor allow you to hold heavy troops and pose a threat to him?
