The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"No wonder Emperor Gaozu and Xiang Yu were enemies, yet they could also admire each other. Their recklessness was truly cut from the same cloth!"

Li Er was also amazed.

In his youth, he also enjoyed personally leading troops into battle.

Regarding military strategy, I would say that I have a profound understanding of it and I believe I have no problem with it.

But he never expected that Liu Bang would have such a personality when leading troops.

It's important to know that when Liu Bang started his rebellion, he was already half-buried in the ground.

He always thought that Liu Bang would personally lead troops into battle whenever there was war, and at most he would personally lead the troops, while the actual fighting was left to the generals below him.

In retrospect, aside from a slight difference in personal martial prowess, this man was indeed similar to Xiang Yu in leading troops into battle.

"Xiang Ji was stubborn and self-willed, with very high standards. How could the people he admired and befriended be mere rascals?"

Old Zhu was equally impressed.

I can be a wandering knight who makes friends with heroes from all walks of life, and I can be an emperor who intimidates all the heroes under heaven.

This is the Emperor Gaozu of Han in his heart!

"Although there are more ways to break the deadlock, it must be admitted that Emperor Gaozu's clean and decisive choice, as well as his exhilarating victory, was indeed extremely satisfying to watch!"

Zhao Kuangyin also stated that this battle was won cleanly and decisively.

The only one who was dissatisfied was probably Han Xin during the Han Dynasty.

He couldn't understand why Liu Bang used to talk with him late into the night by candlelight, exchanging ideas on military strategy.

During that period, although he did not think Liu Bang could understand it, he still imparted almost all his knowledge to him.

In addition, looking at his almost undefeated record and the battle reports after each victory.

Han Xin thought that Liu Bang should be able to learn something from this.

The best strategy is to subdue the enemy without fighting!

In his view, the military tactics employed by Xiang Yu, no matter how many battles he won, were ultimately inferior.

After all, not everyone can be as brave and fierce as Xiang Yu, who could defeat ten thousand men, nor can everyone lead dozens of riders to break through the encirclement when trapped at Gaixia.

But ironically, his emperor seems to have become quite fascinated by Xiang Yu's tactics.

Of course, he also had to admit that...

In the situation described above, using various factors to boost the morale of soldiers and thus intimidate the enemy to achieve the goal of defeating them in one fell swoop seems to be a more straightforward approach.

Furthermore, this battle gave the aristocratic youths in the enemy camp no time to react.

When Liu Bang's nine-tasseled dragon flag was firmly planted in the enemy camp, under his orders, apart from a few who died in the chaos, the remaining members of the aristocratic families were captured alive and imprisoned in a prison cart along with the previous prisoners.

In stark contrast to their fate, the soldiers who laid down their weapons in time when the Wei army charged were not treated as prisoners, but were instead trusted again.

"I know that you gentlemen have been deceived by those from aristocratic families. You have guarded the borders of our Great Wei for so many years with hard work and dedication. I believe that if you knew the truth, you would not be here. Don't you agree?"

At Liu Bang's instruction, the weapons they had previously laid down were returned to them.

"I trust you all. You are all loyal ministers and generals of my Great Wei. I have always been grateful to you."

"Furthermore, I will give you a choice. If you do not wish to participate in the upcoming power struggle between me and the aristocratic clans, you may return to the borders you once guarded at any time. After the outcome of the power struggle is determined, you can then decide who to serve."

"I assure you, I will not stop you, and I will never seek revenge later."

"No matter what you choose, I will remember your contributions to the Great Wei!"

After distributing the weapons to them one by one, Liu Bang said these words and then stepped aside.

There were more than ten large boxes behind him.

Most of the spoils were captured in the past few days, and a few were brought out by him from Chang'an.

Liu Bang waved his hand, and more than ten soldiers simultaneously opened the boxes.

Each box was filled with gleaming silver.

"Those who choose to return and guard the border for my Great Wei may come forward and receive twenty taels of silver as my gratitude for your many years of dedication."

For a moment, the soldiers present looked at each other in bewilderment.

Some people still looked at Liu Bang with fervent eyes, while others were tempted but dared not be the first to act.

Clearly, they feared Liu Bang was testing them.

Liu Bang could see the apprehension in many people's hearts. He reached into the box, took out a handful of silver, and casually threw it on the ground.

"Those who want to leave, take your things and go. I made this promise in front of so many people, and I would never go back on my word. So please rest assured, I have not uttered a single falsehood!"

Now that things have come to this point, it's time for Tuo to make his appearance.

Chen Tai stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and picked up the silver coins that had been thrown out.

"Your Majesty, if I can receive such a reward for returning to guard the border for the Great Wei, what about if I follow you to recapture the capital?"

"What if we follow you and wipe out all those aristocratic clans?"

Upon hearing this, many people's eyes lit up.

Which of these soldiers hadn't dreamed of serving the emperor, achieving great military exploits, and being ennobled and appointed as prime minister?

Compared to the twenty taels of silver, what Liu Bang was about to say was clearly a greater temptation for them.

"If you gentlemen are willing to follow me in recapturing the capital and eliminating these rebellious traitors..."

"Everyone here knows the status of the aristocratic families, right?"

"I will completely dismantle their wealth, their power, and everything they own, and distribute it among those who have rendered meritorious service to me."

"Whether it's wealth, power, or a hereditary title, as long as you have enough military achievements, you can have them."

"I hereby declare this, and all can bear witness to it!"

"I will never mistreat anyone who stands by my side!"

Having said all that, at least the vast majority of people would no longer have the thought of returning to the border.

First of all, Liu Bang was the emperor, and serving the emperor, even sacrificing oneself for him, was the greatest honor for a soldier.

Secondly, the emperor bestowed extremely generous rewards upon them.

Those who leave will still receive twenty taels of silver as a reward for guarding the border.

How could the rewards left behind be any less?

"Those who wish to leave, please come forward and collect twenty taels of silver."

"If you still have any concerns, after receiving the silver, you do not need to return to the border. You can go home on your own, and I will not pursue the matter."

"If you still hesitate after I've said this much, then don't worry about my ridicule!"

No one stepped forward; at this moment, most of them were filled with nothing but fanaticism!

Wen Yang, standing to the side: "..."

"Your Majesty, if there's not enough silver to go around, could you give me some?"

"Oh?"

"No need for a reward. You are my Marquis of Champion. This little thing is not worthy of being a reward for you. As much as you want, I will have it sent directly to your camp."

"Is this enough? If not, I'll find a way to get more for you after I return to the capital!"

Although she wasn't speaking for herself, Wen Yang's eyes still instantly welled up with tears after hearing those words.

"The great task has not yet been accomplished; this humble general dares not ask for any reward for himself!"
