Let's look at the first point first. Although his surname is Liu, although he is also of Chinese descent, this generation can only be counted as a civil servant because of the edict of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Although he has no power, Liu Xiu has not given up on himself. He has been waiting for an opportunity with great ambitions. After Wang Mang usurped power, Liu Xiu felt the opportunity came, so he called a group of brothers to revolt, and Qi Xin joined forces to crusade against Wang Mang and restore the Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu himself grew up in the war, and everyone thought that there was a future with Liu Xiugan, so there were more and more people around Liu Xiu, forming a force to be reckoned with.
Unlike other troops who plundered every time they captured a county, Liu Xiu strictly ordered the army not to disturb the people after each capture of the city, and also personally visited the people and told them not to be afraid. People live in fear every day, fearing that one day their homes will be suddenly copied. At this time, they suddenly heard that someone attacked the county seat not to rob things, but to protect themselves, which was naturally welcomed by the people. Liu Xiu's move won the hearts of the people and laid the foundation for later reunification.
Finally, Liu Xiu is thirsty for talents. Liu Xiu knows that if he wants to defeat other forces, he must have a powerful think tank to advise him. He can't do it alone, so he looks for talents everywhere and has good conditions. Many counselors saw that the boss was ambitious and resourceful, and he would surely achieve great things in the future, so they took refuge in Liu Xiu's door.
