Knowing people and being good at their duties is a word that is often used to describe leaders. To know someone is to know someone. Kindness means being good at giving others tasks. Only by knowing your own advantages and disadvantages can you know your own usefulness. Liu bang did a good job on this point. Liu Bang knows very well what is the most important thing for a leader, how to arouse the enthusiasm of his subordinates, and what is the most suitable position according to his personality characteristics.
This is also what Liu Bang is best at. It is not easy to do this by giving full play to their respective strengths. So Liu let Han Xin lead the troops, Sean advised, and Xiao He was guaranteed, so he became the core of power.
Liu Bang once said: "On advice, I am not as good as Sean; I am not as good as Xiao He in appeasing the world's pay supply; Together, win the battle, I am not as good as Han Xin; These three people are outstanding talents, and I can use them, which is why I win the world. Xiang Yu has Fan Zeng, but it's useless. That's why I beat him. "
Liu bang himself said that being good at employing people is the main reason why he won the world, which shows how clever his skill in employing people is.
First of all, Liu Bang is good at wooing talents. Many of his advisers and generals became good friends when they were in the country. Liu Bang's trusted confidants are mainly Xiao He, Cao Can, Fan Kuai, Xia Houying, Shenshiqi and Tomb, who have been following him since the Pei County Uprising. Their relationship with Liu Bang for many years made them loyal to Liu Bang. On one occasion, in the battle, Liu Bang left his children several times, but saved Xia Houying who had been driving for him since the day of Liu Bang's uprising. This is enough to make Xia Houying loyal to Liu Bang.
Secondly, Liu Bang rewarded people with meritorious service. He rewarded them according to their merits and made everyone obey. After Liu Bang ascended the throne, he was rewarded for his merits. Liu Bang thinks that Xiao He has made the greatest contribution, but the military commanders all feel that they have made the greatest contribution. At this time, Liu Bang said metaphorically: "It is hunting dogs that hunt animals, but it is hunters who can find their traces and give instructions. Today's military commanders can only hunt animals, so it is the credit of hunting dogs; And Xiao He is the credit of the hunter who gives orders and is good at discovering the enemy. " It can be seen that Liu Bang's attitude towards the wise and the brave is quite different. He respects truly talented people. For example, he named General Bill Han and King Qi. Treat Sean as a military adviser, and do as you say. Liu bang appointed Chen Wei, unmoved by slanderers. Because these people build immortal honors.
Finally: Liu Bang himself is in charge of the overall situation, good at layout, and there is no doubt about employing people. On one occasion, Liu Bang and General Han Xin evaluated the abilities of the generals. Liu asked how many soldiers Han Xin could take, and Han Xin said that there were only 100,000. He thought that the more troops, the better. Liu bang said jealously in his heart, since the more troops you have, the better. Why are you captured by me? Besides, your majesty relies on divine right, not manpower. "The divine right of the monarch" is a superstitious statement, which is flattering. In fact, Liu Bang is good at mastering generals. He can monopolize power and disperse small power. There is no doubt that he employs people, but it is true that he can get the hard work of the soldiers.
Therefore, Liu Bang is good at employing people and making him win the world.
