Han Xin (about 23 BC1-BC 196), a native of Huaiyin (formerly Huaiyin County, Jiangsu Province, now Huaiyin District, Huai 'an City), was a founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, an outstanding strategist in the history of China, tied for three outstanding heroes of early han dynasty with Xiao He and Sean, and was also called a famous soldier in the third year of Han Dynasty with Peng Yue and Ying Bu. In his early years, he was very poor and often sent food from people. At the end of Qin Dynasty, he took part in the anti-Qin struggle and defected to Xiang Yu. After that, he was recommended by Xia Houying and worshipped Su Dawei, but he was not reused. Xiao He recommended Han Xin to Liu Bang, so Liu Bang named General Bill Han. In the Chu-Han War, Han Xin played an outstanding military talent. After Wei pacified, he finally defeated Dai and Zhao. Then go north and surrender to Yan.
Han Xin is the representative figure of China's military thought of "seeking war", and is praised by Xiao He as "the national soldier of chinese odyssey". Liu Bang commented: "If you win the war, take it. I am not as good as Han Xin. " Han Xin is the representative figure of China's military thought of "seeking war", and is regarded as "the soldier fairy" and "the god of war" by later generations. "Princes and princes" Han Xin is in power. "The national scholar is unparalleled" and "meritorious service is the best in the world, slightly out of the world" is the evaluation of people at the time of Chu and Han Dynasties. As a military theorist, he and Sean compiled military books and wrote three articles about Sun Tzu's Art of War.

1. Sima Qian's evaluation: I have been to Huaiyin County, where people told me that even though Han Xin is a civilian, his ambition is different from ordinary people. At that time, her mother died and her family was poor, so Han Xin could not bury her mother according to the etiquette at that time. However, he found a treasure trove of geomantic omen-a place with high, flat and spacious terrain, which can accommodate tens of thousands of families, as his mother's cemetery. I have also been to his mother's grave, and it was exactly the same as Huaiyin's elder said.
2. Sima Guang's evaluation: Most people may think that Han Xin was the first person to put forward the grand strategy of unifying the world. He and Liu Bang started an uprising in Hanzhong. After pacifying the Three Qin Dynasties, they split up with Liu Bang to capture the north, capture Wang Wei alive, seize Dai Guo, defeat Zhao, threaten Yan State, attack and occupy Qi State in the east, and destroy Chu State in the south. Generally speaking, the Han dynasty was able to win the world. Seeing that he refused Kuaiche's lobbying and greeted Liu Bang in Chen, how could he have a rebellious heart? ! It was because he was unhappy about losing his aristocratic status that he committed betrayal and rebellion.
3. Liu Shao: "If you are bold, you will be slightly better. Just call Xiao Xiong, Bai Qi and Han Xin. "
4. Make peace: "These two generals are almost enemies of Chiyou. They have opened what they want. How can they win? In other words, they said that Bai Qigong did more, which was considered great by previous history. If you want to see the sea, you will win in vain. If Han Xin breaks the flag to cover the army and draws a flag to bleed, you will win, which will be described as amazing and amazing.
5. Su Shi: "Hold the general idea of Wang Ba, save the heroic picture, swallow Liuhe and cover ten thousand people."
6. What to do: "Say that soldiers are not like Sun Wu, and soldiers are not like Han Xin and Tsao Gong. Although Wu used soldiers as a book, his personal use was rare. Han Xin didn't write a book for himself, but Tso did, and later generations didn't see it. However, it is said that both of them are studying martial arts, so they can use it endlessly. Stealing and studying it, thirteen martial arts articles are also read by people who are out of school all over the world. Everyone knows it and uses it wisely, so who is not Han and who is not Cao in the world? If Han and Cao have no descendants, those who read the Wu Jing may not be able to do it in the war. "
7. Chen Liang: "Xiao He, Han Xin and Sean beggars run in the middle, because Gaudi, the Emperor of Han Dynasty, won the world. The world is established, but it is also inevitable. So Sean supported himself and became a fairy; Xiao He protects himself with fear; Han Xin's advance and retreat is self-evident because of his contribution to the world. Xiao He can know that it is useless, and the pawn can't protect his rebellion, but he can protect himself by trust. "
8. Hong Mai: "Emperor Gaozu used Han Xin as a general, and the third was to cheat him: the letter stood in Zhao, and the emperor became a river. In the morning, he claimed that the Chinese ambassador rushed into the letter wall, but the letter did not rise, that is, he fell down, grabbed its seal, and called the generals to change places; When Xiang Yu died, he attacked his army and seized it. The pawn is false and dreams are bound to the letter. The husband is open-minded and generous, so he acts. The letter eventually rebelled and was enlightened. "
9. Yang Weizhen: "On the day when Han Xin stepped onto the altar, Chen Bi's paintings were sketched. On the reason why Chu defeated Han De, the plan of the Three Qin Dynasties was decided by Han Xin. "
