When playing landlord fighting, I often hear a voice: I am not afraid of god-like opponents, but I am afraid of pig-like teammates.
A famous person once said, "It is beneficial to act with people who are better than you, both in terms of learning and in terms of life".
It doesn't matter who you are, it's who you're with. Who you associate with determines the height of your life and the direction of your destiny.
If Liu Bang can hear these words, he will definitely give a big thumbs up.
Because, when he met Zhang Liang on the road of working hard for the emperor's ideals, it was definitely the most beautiful encounter in his life.
Walk with the wise and you will be extraordinary;In the company of the masters, you can reach the top.
Zhang Liang, after South Korea, it is a pity that before he could become the "second generation of officials", South Korea was wiped out by Qin.
His brother lost his life as a result. The hatred of the country and the family hit his soul strongly, and the blood boiled in his heart.
He wants to avenge the country, and he wants to assassinate Yingzheng.
Historically, the story of Yi Shui's farewell and Jing Ke's assassination of Qin has been passed down through the ages.
As everyone knows, after this, Zhang Liang also committed assassination.
Jing Ke is a swordsman anyway, what kind of fun are you a powerless scholar making fun?
He didn't know how to use a sword, so he found a strong man and hit a hammer weighing 120 pounds.
When Ying Zheng was patrolling Huaiyang in the east, he and Hercules laid an ambush in advance, planning to use a hammer to take Ying Zheng's life.
Ying Zheng has a lot of experience in preventing assassinations, and his fleet cars are all the same.
I don't know which unlucky ghost the hammer thrown, but Yingzheng is fine.
A wanted warrant was immediately issued, "The world is very demanding, and the thieves are in a hurry." ”
Zhang Liang was helpless and hid incognito in Xiapi.
A scholar can have such blood, such courage, and such a strategy, which is already very incomparable.
Encounters are always so beautiful, and encounters with wise people are like stars, which can always show you the way forward.
One day, Zhang Liang wandered aimlessly and met an old man in cloth on a bridge.
This old man was very strange, and when he saw Zhang Liang, he deliberately threw his shoes under the bridge and asked Zhang Liang to go down and help him pick them up.
When Zhang Liang heard this, he was angry, because he was wanted, he was hiding all day long, and he was annoying, and you still asked me to pick up shoes.
The first reaction was to beat him, but when he saw his age, half of his anger disappeared, and he was idle, so he picked it up.
Who knew that the old man had to inch in, and asked Zhang Liang to help him put it on. Zhang Liang endured it and helped the old man put on his shoes.
What made Zhang Liang even more speechless was that the old man got up and walked away laughing, without even saying the word "thanks".
Looking at the old man's distant back, Zhang Liang was stunned for a while.
As soon as he turned around to leave, the old man came back again, "You can teach, you will still be waiting for me at dawn in five days." ”
Five days later, Zhang Liang came to the bridge, and the old man arrived early, "You kid, it's better for an old man to come early, come back in five days." ”
The second time, Zhang Liang was late again.
After another five days, Zhang Liang rushed to the bridge in the middle of the night and waited, and the old man came just after dawn.
The old man took out a book from his arms and handed it to Zhang Liang: "If you read this book well, you can become an imperial teacher." In ten years, the person you assist will be able to become kings. ”
This old man is the legendary old man of Huangshi, and this book is the legendary "Taigong Art of War".
Everyone has heard the story of Zhang Liang's pick-up, and the reason why I repeat it again is to say:
You may encounter such opportunities, but not everyone can seize them.
In fact, the old man of Huangshi made things difficult for Zhang Liang, and what really tested his heart was his heart.
Those who achieve great things must maintain inner tranquility, be calm and patient.
If the heart is impetuous and full of various impulses, you will not see the long term and will not be able to become a true wise man.
They are not qualified to pursue their own achievements in this troubled world, or even create historical achievements.
Obviously, Zhang Liang's answer sheet is 100 points.
has just experienced the failure of the assassination of Ying Zheng and is wanted everywhere, in this situation, he can behave so calmly and calmly, which shows that Zhang Liang's mind has matured.
This is also the most important trait of Zhang Liang: when faced with the most serious and terrible events and setbacks, nothing can shake him.
It was Zhang Liang's luck to meet the old man of Huangshi, who devoted himself to studying the "Taigong Art of War" and climbed to his own peak.
He followed the direction pointed out by the old man and walked down without hesitation.
Surviving with a wise man is tantamount to owning a treasure, and the wisdom and inspiration he gives will be the cornerstone of your progress.
Zhang Liang and Liu Bang's first encounter was in Liu, at that time, Zhang Liang wanted to go to Jingju, and Liu Bang came out of Pei.
The two hit it off at first sight and often discussed the art of war together.
At this time, Zhang Liang wanted to establish his own power, and he still wanted to recover Korea in his heart, and did not follow Liu Bang.
The second time they met was at Xiang Liang's place, Zhang Liang asked Xiang Liang to become the king of Han, the son of Han, and Liu Bang was also working for Xiang Liang at that time.
Later, Han Cheng's development was not smooth, and Liu Bang helped him capture more than a dozen cities, and Zhang Liang was very grateful.
Later, Han Cheng was killed by Xiang Yu, which completely broke Zhang Liang's dream of recovering the country and pushed Zhang Liang to Liu Bang's side.
Since then, Zhang Liang has wholeheartedly assisted Liu Bang, and has helped Liu Bang resolve crises many times, turn danger into relief, and reverse the situation.
In the war against Qin, there were several key battles, and Zhang Liang played a crucial role.
Liu Bang had 20,000 troops under his command and was in a hurry to bypass Wancheng and attack westward.
Zhang Liang analyzed: Wancheng is very difficult to fight, but if we bypass it and go west, once we lose, the Qin army will attack back and forth, and we will be given dumplings.
Liu Bang listened to Zhang Liang's advice and turned around to attack Wancheng.
After capturing Wancheng, to the west is Wuguan, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a hard bone.
Liu Bang frowned, and Zhang Liang said: The defender of the city is a butcher, a businessman, who values profit the most, and can buy it with a lot of money.
At the same time, let the army build stoves, light fires, and cook meals for 50,000 people, which were used to confuse the Qin army.
As expected, Li Shiqi bribed the chief general with a lot of money, not only willing to surrender, but also willing to follow Liu Bang into Xianyang.
Liu Bang was overjoyed, but Zhang Liang still prepared for the worst, just in case.
Further west is Lantian, this battle is recorded in the "Historical Records": the Qin army was defeated.
These battles seemed impossible to win, but under Zhang Liang's strategy, they were won one by one.
In this way, Liu Bang, who was not optimistic, went all the way to the west and entered Xianyang one step ahead of Xiang Yu.
After entering Xianyang, Liu Bang strode straight into the Qin Palace.
The gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful beauties almost blinded him, and he sat on the dragon bed and slept beautifully.
It's a human life, and it's enjoyable.
Liu Bang didn't leave the Qin Palace for three days, Fan Hao was in a hurry, and broke in to find Liu Bang, but was scolded by this brother-in-law.
Zhang Liang understands Liu Bang's mind and knows his weakness, that is, Liu Bang is most afraid of others mentioning his origin.
I'm a hooligan, and I don't want others to say he's a hooligan.
Liu Bang's biggest advantage is that he is self-aware.
On the fourth day, Liu Bang reluctantly bid farewell to the Qin Palace and returned to the army.
After the Hongmen banquet, Xiang Yu broke his promise, named Liu Bang as the king of Han, stationed in Bashu, and entered Xianyang by himself.
Although Liu Bang was unwilling, with the help of Uncle Xiang, he finally saved his life, and he had no choice but to admit it.
Before leaving, Zhang Liang offered another plan: he asked Liu Bang to burn all the plank roads he had walked on.
The purpose is to reassure Xiang Yu and show that he will not come back.
When Xiang Yu left Xianyang to attack Qi, Liu Bang fought back to Guanzhong, laying the foundation for the dispute between Chu and Han.
In the battle of Pengcheng, Liu Bang was defeated and fled to Xiayi.
He said to Zhang Liang in frustration: "Our 400,000 army can't defeat Xiang Yu's 30,000, what will happen next?"”
At this time, Liu Bang was like a defeated rooster, dejected.
Zhang Liang said: "Boss, don't worry, don't worry, there are three people who can help us." ”
Liu Bang instantly came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Who?"”
Zhang Liang said two names: Jiujiang Wang Dubu and Peng Yue.
And what about the other one?Liu Bang couldn't wait to ask.
Far away in the sky, close in front of him, it is Han Xin, only he can be alone. ”
Liu Bang immediately sent people to win over Tu Bu and Peng Yue.
Later, Han Xin won the battle and asked for the king of Qi.
At first, Liu Bang disagreed, but was finally persuaded by Zhang Liang.
It turned out that Han Xin played a decisive role in defeating Xiang Yu in the battle of Xiaxia.
From the anti-Qin, Chu and Han rivalries to the establishment of the Han Dynasty, how Liu Bang won the world and ruled the world, Zhang Liang basically accompanied him throughout the whole process.
It is Liu Bang's luck to meet Zhang Liang, without Zhang Liang's "strategizing", there would be no Liu Bang's "decisive victory".
A wise man is not greedy, not stupid, not arrogant or impatient, has insight into the world, is discerning, advances and retreats freely, and knows how to make trade-offs.
After Liu Bang became emperor, Zhang Liang often used poor health as an excuse to stay at home.
* During the reward, Liu Bang asked Zhang Liang to "choose 30,000 households".
This is a big fiefdom, Zhang Liang didn't want it.
Boss, if you want to reward me, leave it to me, and meet you there, and now that the great cause has been accomplished, I should go back there to retire. ”
Zhang Liang was named "Waiting".
In fact, he played another emotional card.
The implication is to tell Liu Bang: When you clean up the heroes, leave me a life.
Since then, Zhang Liang has "learned to open the valley and lead to lightness", using this way to distance himself from real politics.
When your life and career are at their peak, choosing to retire and return to the ordinary is not something that every successful person can do.
After Liu Bang's death, Empress Dowager Lu found Zhang Liang and said to him: "Life is short, why bother living so hard, eat something." ”
Zhang Liang saw through Empress Lu's thoughts, either he was sincerely grateful to him for helping him keep the crown prince, or he was not at ease about his existence.
This face must be given, Zhang Liang occasionally goes out of the mountains for a walk, showing his face in front of the Queen Mother, hello, hello, everyone.
Liu Bang once praised Zhang Liang: In the midst of the husband's strategy, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, and I am not as good as the ovary.
Zhuge Liang commented on him like this: Looking up to his image is not prestigious, but he strategizes, wins thousands of miles, and becomes the emperor's army.
Sima Qian commented on him: In the midst of strategizing, winning is invisible;The ovary is scheming, no well-known, no bravery, the picture is more difficult than easy, and it is greater than the fine.
Later generations called Zhang Liang the originator of "strategizing", called him "seeking sage", and called him the "fourteen sages" in ancient China, along with the literary sage Confucius and the martial saint Guan Yu.
