At that time, Liu Bang took advantage of the opportunity of Xiang Yu's army to recover the Liang land, aiming at teasing and sticking to Cao Cao, the stronghold of Xiang Yu's western expedition at that time, and Cao Cao was trapped. Liu bang then occupied the altitude in one fell swoop, "got the gold and jade goods of Chu" and almost took Xiang Yu's money. In a rage, Xiang Yu quickly led the elite troops back to the Western Heaven and confronted Liu's army in Guangwu River, which was called a crack.
After the confrontation, Xiang Yu constantly challenged Liu Bang and shouted every day. However, whether it is fighting alone or fighting among the three armies, Liu Bang just won't fight, and only insists on not fighting. Even if Xiang Yu arranged for people to abuse at the edge of the gap, he silently endured and remained silent.
After months of this anxious confrontation, Xiang Yu decided to use his killer weapon because of lack of supplies. He once captured Liu Bang's family, especially Liu Bang's biological father Liu Taigong. So Xiang Yu ordered Taigong to be tied to the chopping board and carried out, and shouted at Liu Bang on the other side of the gap: If you don't surrender, I will cook your old father alive.
So, there is the answer of Liu Bang's "classic quotations" above. You and I were brothers when we met, so my father is also your father. If you insist on cooking his old man's food, then share it with me.
Liu Bang's words left a deep impression on later generations.
Taigong was captured in the Battle of Pengcheng in the second year of Han Dynasty, and his old man was held hostage in Chuying for two years until the fourth year of Han Dynasty. You have to admire Liu Bang's "wit" and say such humorous "one-liners" to be in an invincible position, although no one can predict whether Xiang Yu will really cook Taigong alive.
It should be said that the failure of the battle of Pengcheng made people see Liu Bang clearly, and even the privacy hidden in the deepest part of their hearts was completely exposed. This attitude towards your biological father gives you a better attitude towards your children. Also after Cheng Peng's defeat, on the way to escape, he pushed his son and daughter out of the carriage three times because there were many pursuers, many people in the carriage and slow horses. In order to survive, win the war, and kill his parents and children, Liu Bang is unique. Liu Bang is not only hard-hearted, but also mean at times.
In the ninth year of Han Dynasty, the Weiyang Palace in Chang 'an was completed, which coincided with Taigong's birthday. Liu bang set up a wine lobby to celebrate Taigong's birthday with his ministers. When Liu Bang was drunk, he remembered that he owned Kyushu, which was the best in the world, and proudly said to Taigong, "You used to say that I was worthless, couldn't support my family, couldn't manage my property well, and was nothing like Brother Zhong. Now you see, in my property, who is more than Brother Zhong and who is less than Brother Zhong? " What was Taigong's answer and expression at that time? There is no record. This must be awkward.
Teacher Cai Dongfan, a famous novelist, once commented that the words "bold and unconstrained" and "bold and unconstrained" are really appropriate for Liu Bang. Rough people have no rules, no feelings and no laws. But in history, it is precisely this kind of people who can achieve great things, unimpeded, fearless, unscrupulous and invincible.
