Han Xin, the founding hero and strategist of the Western Han Dynasty, was one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty. Han Xin was born as a commoner. His family was poor in his early years.
Han Xin's family was poor in his early years, so he often sent food from others. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, he participated in the anti-Qin struggle and defected to Xiang Yu. Later, he was recommended by Xia Houying and became the governor of Su, but he was not reused.
Xiao He recommended Han Xin to Liu Bang, so Liu Bang worshiped Han Xin as his general. Han Xin analyzed the situation between Chu and Han to Liu Bang and raised his troops eastward, so that the Three Qin could capture it. Liu Bang adopted this suggestion and immediately made arrangements, quickly occupying Guanzhong. In the Chu-Han War, Han Xin displayed outstanding military talents. He pacified Wei and defeated Dai and Zhao in a last-ditch battle. After that, he went north and surrendered to Yan State. In the fourth year of the Han Dynasty, Han Xin was worshiped as the prime minister, led his troops to attack Qi, captured Linzi, wiped out the dragon in Weishui, and led the 200,000 Chu troops to aid Qi. Therefore, Liu Bang sent Zhang Liang to make Han Xin king of Qi. In October of the following year, he ordered Han Xin to join forces in Gaixia to encircle and annihilate the Chu army, forcing Xiang Yu to commit suicide. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, he was relieved of military power and moved to the throne of Chu. After being accused of treason and demoted to the title of Marquis of Huaiyin, Empress Lu conspired with the Prime Minister Xiao He to trick Han Xin into the Changle Palace on the pretext of treason, and beheaded him in the Bell Chamber, barbarizing the other three tribes. It's true that "Succeed is Xiao He, and failure is Xiao He."
