First, it was the first time that Liu Bang became emperor as a civilian.
The society before Liu Bang was a feudal system with strict barriers. Since the Xia Dynasty, the system of succession to the title of title was finalized in the Western Zhou Dynasty, which doomed that it would be difficult for a person to enter the upper class if he was not from a noble family. It's hard to get out of the picture, let alone the supreme ruler.
Although Qin Shihuang implemented the military reward system, soldiers had the opportunity to be promoted upward. But promoted to the highest, that is, when a Hou. At this time, he was still a courtier. If you want to be an emperor, no one has the right except Qin Shihuang.
Bobby Chen said? The prince and the prince will be together. What kind of people would you rather have? ? This statement on the one hand shows that the prince and the prince are related by blood. Is there really? Kind? Yes; On the other hand, it also shows that Bobby Chen only dares to think? Princes and princes will meet? Dare not think? The emperor? .
Xiang Yu has pacified the world, why only dare to be one? King Chu? , and dare not when the emperor, obviously is the established concept at that time, limited his imagination.
So when Liu Bang went up from a civilian, everyone didn't trust him very much, and they all doubted whether he could eventually become emperor and supreme ruler.
When Tian Heng was summoned by Liu Bang, he even committed suicide instead of going to him. Obviously, Tian Heng, who was born in a noble family, despises Liu Bang, who was born in a civilian family.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang also became emperor from a civilian, he was the first because of Liu Bang. Coupled with the uprising of Zhu Yuanzhang and others at that time, was it an expulsion? Foreign? (Mongolian), in some way? Justice? So Zhu Yuanzhang was believed by more people.
Second, Liu Bang's own ability to fight is not good, and he survived several times.
From the uprising to the emperor, and even after the emperor, Liu Bang survived several times and hardly escaped.
The first time, the hongmen banquet. Man is a knife and I am a fish. Xiang Yu killed Liu Bang almost in an instant. Even if Xiang Bo becomes the mole, he will block Xiang Zhuang with his sword. Even if Fan Kuai is brave enough to eat a whole pig's trotters, how can he save Liu Bang?
The second time, I was trapped in Pengcheng. Liu bang was besieged by Xiang Yu's army in Pengcheng. Pengcheng is the capital of Xiang Yu. After Liu Bang captured Pengcheng, Xiang Yu led 30,000 troops to retreat to the siege, killing 100,000 people of Liu Bang's allied forces and drowning 100,000 people. Han Xin also found an excuse not to save. In the end, Liu Bang was only escaped by dozens of riders. If it weren't for Chen Ping's clever plan, he might be washed away again.
For the third time, after Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, he distrusted the governors and had to lead the troops to fight by himself. He attacked Xiongnu in the north and was besieged by modu chanyu in Deng Bai for seven days and seven nights. Modu chanyu had not listened to that woman, Liu Bang would not have lived.
The fourth time, Ying Bu rebelled and Liu Bang was killed by an arrow. Although he saved his life, the injury hit him too hard and eventually he died of an arrow wound.
It was really not easy for Liu Bang to finally become emperor.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang was also hard, he didn't have such a narrow escape on his way up.
Third, even if Liu Bang became emperor, everyone would be unconvinced and want to create his rebellion.
Liu Bang left a bad reputation in history, that is, killing heroes. However, it is really necessary for Liu Bang to kill the hero. He has a lesson from Xiang Yu, and then the princes are ready to move. He won't kill any heroes for no reason. Only Han Xin and Peng Yue killed the enemy the hardest. However, the two men, it should be said that Liu Bangyou killed the heart, but did not start work, it was Lv Hou's hand.
Obviously, so many people rebelled because everyone was not convinced that Liu Bang was the emperor. They felt that they were born nobler than Liu Bang, fought better than Liu Bang, and contributed more than Liu Bang. Why did Liu Can become emperor instead of himself?
Zhu Yuanzhang's killing of heroes is naked killing. It is much easier for him to kill heroes than Liu Bang, and it is also much more cruel than Liu Bang.
So relatively speaking, it is not easy for Liu Bang to be emperor.
