First of all, the savior is in danger because of constant surprises.
Chen Ping was born in poverty. His family only has 30 acres of land. In the Qin dynasty, there were very few people. According to the agricultural production level at that time, he could barely make ends meet. Due to the early death of his parents, Chen Ping followed his brother and sister-in-law since childhood. My brother worked hard and raised Chen Ping wholeheartedly, so that he could go to school and invite teachers to visit relatives and friends. Chen Ping didn't live up to his brother's expectations. I like reading, devoting myself to studying Taoism and exploring the art of governing the country. Visiting friends and teachers, studying abroad, determined to do world affairs.
Once, Chen Ping presided over a sacrifice in the village. It is fair to share meat after sacrifice. The villagers praised: "Chen's children presided over the sacrifice and divided the meat. Delicious! " Chen Ping sighed disappointedly and said, "It is only fair to let Chen Ping preside over world affairs."
Later, in the turmoil at the end of Qin Dynasty, Chen Ping actively sought his wise master. After following Wang Wei and Xiang Yu for a period of time, he defected to Liu Bang and became an important counselor of Liu Bang. Whenever Liu Bang encounters a crisis and a critical moment, Chen Ping will put forward a plan. The result of Liu Bang's adoption is to lift the crisis and overcome difficulties, and the strategy itself is often unexpected.
In 204 BC, Liu Bang was besieged by Xiang Yu in Yang Rong for nearly a year, cutting off the foreign aid and food supply of the Han army. Liu bang had to make peace with Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu refused, continued to step up the siege, and soon killed Liu Bang. Liu Bang was in a hurry, and Chen Ping took the opportunity to divert attention: "I think the people who can confuse Chu and Han now are Fan Zeng, his second father Zhong Limei, Long Che, and Xiang Yu's most trusted and relied on people." If the king is willing to give up all his money, he can throw a counter-plan, alienate his monarch and subjects, and make Chu Jun suspicious from top to bottom. Xiang Yu loves suspicion and listens to rumors, which will inevitably make Neijiang and Chu Jun kill each other. At that time, our army took the opportunity to counterattack, which was bound to break Chu. "Liu bang knows that if there is no life, no amount of gold is useless. So he took out 42,000 gold coins and gave them to Chen Ping. Sure enough, the effect soon appeared. Fan Zeng was forced to resign and died on his way home. Zhou Yin betrayed Liu Bang, and Zhong Limei was alienated by Xiang Yu. So, the plan of "Li" was put forward, pretending to be Hanwang, making General Ji Xin pretend to be Liu Bang, leading more than 2,000 Han troops to surrender in Dongcheng, while Liu Banghe took advantage of the emptiness in Xicheng, opened the gate and fled to the Guanzhong base area guarded by Xiao He and escaped from the encirclement of Xiang Yu.
In 203 BC, Liu Bang worshipped Han Xin as a general and launched a surprise attack on Qi controlled by Xiang Yu. After Han Xin occupied Qi, his ambition expanded. He sent someone to report to Liu Bang and suggested that he represent Qi. At this time, the Han army commanded by Liu Bang was at war with the Chu army with Xiang Yu as the main force, forming a deadlock. Liu Bang was very angry, so he opened his mouth and scolded in front of the messenger: "I have been trapped here for a long time. Looking forward to Han Xin's help every day. You have to be king by yourself! " Chen Ping stood beside Liu Bang. He couldn't hear clearly, so he ignored the ceremony of the monarch and the minister and kicked Liu Bang. When Liu Bang is in pain, shut up quickly. Looking back, it turned out that Sean and Chen Ping both kicked him and winked at him. Liu Bang immediately realized that he had said something wrong. I think: Han Xin is both civil and military, armed to the teeth and far away from Qi, and I, Liu Bang, can't stop him from becoming king. Han Xin is very important now. if
Soon, Chu and Han made peace and the two sides were surrounded by a gap. This is the origin of the "Chu-Han border". Xiang Yu led the army to retreat eastward. Chen Ping found that Xiang Yu's army was short of food and grass, demoralized and exhausted. So he immediately put forward a plan to Liu Bang: a plan to win. At this time, Sean just caught up with Chen Ping, and he also suggested that Liu Bang pursue the victory. The reason for Liu Bang's questioning is that he can't break his promise to the world before the ink of the peace treaty is dry. Because Liu Bang attacked Chen, they advised Liu Bang not to let go. When Liu Bang woke up, he immediately sent troops to kill Xiang Yu. By 202 BC, Liu Bang, Han Xin, Peng Yue and other allied forces surrounded Xiang Yu under the grave, "besieged on all sides", completely defeated the Chu army and forced Xiang Yu to commit suicide on the bank of Wujiang River.
Later, Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, led an army to attack Xiongnu, and was besieged in Pingcheng. There is really no food and grass inside, and there are no reinforcements outside. The situation is critical. Chen Ping used two tricks: anti-honey trap and bribery to make Liu Bang escape. Chen Ping was richly rewarded, surpassing all the heroes in the early Han Dynasty.
Second, resourceful and helpful.
After Chen Ping escaped from Xiang Yu, he went to the ferry to cross the river. When the boatman saw Chen Ping wearing new clothes and wearing a sword around his waist, he thought it was a "fat sheep". He thought that Chen Ping had a lot of gold and silver on him, so when the boat reached the middle of the river, he wanted to kill Chen Ping. Chen Ping couldn't see clearly, so he took off his clothes on the pretext of hot weather, so that the boatman could see that he had nothing of value and crossed the river to find Liu Bang.
Before his death, Liu Bang ordered Chen Ping and Zhou Bo to go to the front to suppress the rebellion and killed the general Fan Kuai. This Fan Kuai is not only an old friend of Liu Bang, but also his brother-in-law, that is, Lv Hou's brother-in-law. Chen Ping knows that it is difficult to violate his own life, but he knows that Liu Bang and Lv Hou are both human beings and are afraid of repetition. So I discussed with the frequency, only going to put Fan Kuai on the van, instead of killing him immediately and personally escorting him back to Chang 'an for disposal. Sure enough, during this period, Liu Bang died and the imperial power was held by Lv Hou. Hearing the news, Chen Ping knew that the situation was very dangerous. Fortunately, I didn't kill Fan Kuai, but I can also make a clear defense against Lv Hou and avoid plotting against him. Afraid of sleeping, Chen Ping let the prison car drive as usual and return to Chang 'an by bus.
After returning to Chang 'an, he pretended to be heartbroken, stumbled into the palace, knelt in front of Liu Bang's spiritual pivot, and wept bitterly, deeply touching everyone present. In fact, Chen Ping is worried about his fate. When acting, Chen Ping said a lot, but the most important thing was to tell Lv Hou present: My late emperor ordered me to kill Fan Kuai, and I dare not do it easily. Now I have escorted him back to Beijing. Of course, Lv Hou knew that Chen Ping was acting, but he was relieved when he heard that Fan Kuai had not died. After listening to Chen Ping's confession, I saw that Chen Ping's eyes were full of tears. Knowing that Chen Ping was indeed a genius, he dismissed the idea of punishing him and appointed him as a doctor, responsible for educating and assisting the new emperor Han Hui.
During Lv Hou's dictatorship, Chen Ping was appointed as the left-wing prime minister, but he was afraid of being suspected, so he went with the flow in government affairs and enjoyed life [/s2/] to protect himself. Later, after his death, he joined Qiu to kill the kings of Lu and let Di Hua continue to assist Di Hua. In BC 178, Chen Ping died happily at home.
Chen Ping is a rare intellectual consultant in the ancient history of China. Although he is the prime minister, he is still an adviser. Although Chen Ping's tactics can't be said to be upright and upright, and even smack of "intrigue", he himself once said that "I often use intrigue, which is forbidden by Taoism", but they are very practical, can solve problems, and can play a role in reversing Gan Kun at a critical moment, which is really amazing.
