Many people overestimated Qin Shihuang and underestimated Liu Bang. I think Liu Bang is far greater than Qin Shihuang. The reasons are as follows:

First: From a political point of view, Qin Shihuang's national policy was a complete failure, as evidenced by his death. This shows that the people of the world did not recognize Qin's tyranny at that time, and it can be said that there was great hatred , the unification of Qin was completely the result of violent massacres and suppression. The world did not return to its heart. It only knew how to be tyrannical and did not know how to be gentle. Therefore, the national fate was very short-lived. It would never be like this if it were the real dragon emperor. Liu Bang's return to the world of the Han Dynasty lasted for more than 400 years. , isn’t it obvious who the real Dragon Emperor is?

Second: From the perspective of military achievements, the Qin army was not founded by Qin Shihuang. When Qin Shihuang came to the throne, several of Qin's powerful neighbors had long been beaten to a point of weakness, and Han and Wei were already on their last legs. , Zhao State was severely weakened after the Changping Battle, and the Changping War happened during the period of King Qin Zhaoxiang, and the decline of Chu State was also caused by the consecutive defeats by Qin State during the period of King Huai of Chu, and had nothing to do with Qin Shihuang. Even so, Qin Shihuang It still took nearly ten years to destroy the Six Kingdoms. Qin Shihuang's military achievements were not as good as those of King Qin Zhaoxiang. The most difficult obstacle for Qin to destroy the Six Kingdoms was actually cleared by King Qin Zhaoxiang; while Liu Bang started from scratch from the Snake Rebellion to annihilating Xiang Yu Dingding in the battle of Gaixia. In the world, it only took eight years. Who is better than who?

Third: From the perspective of knowing and employing people, Li Si is not as good as Xiao He and Zhang Liang, and Wang Jian is not as good as Han Xin. Qin Shihuang promoted traitorous ministers like Zhao Gao and expelled wise princes away from the center of the court, laying the foundation for future generations. Huge hidden danger: Liu Bang did not make such a fatal mistake. Although Empress Lu took over the government after Liu Bang's death, Liu Bang had long seen this and pointed out that Zhou Bo would definitely be able to pacify Liu. In the end, this was the case. In terms of selecting talents, Liu Bang Better than Qin Shihuang.

Fourth: From a management level, Qin Shihuang concentrated all his power on himself and did not trust his ministers. He had to read hundreds of kilograms of bamboo slips every day, and it took two strong men to pick them. Liu Bang, on the other hand, only grasped the general direction and left specific government affairs to ministers. Liu Bang's division of labor between monarch and ministers was much more reasonable than that of Qin Shihuang. This was also an important reason why the Han Dynasty could last for such a long time. In terms of management level, Liu Bang was better than Qin Shihuang.

Fifth: From the perspective of intellectual policy, although Qin Shihuang and Liu Bang did not like Confucian scholars, Liu Bang soon realized the positive role of Confucian scholars in the construction of national power and changed However, Qin Shihuang failed to realize throughout his life that Confucianism was actually more reasonable and more suitable for the Chinese people than Legalism. In terms of intellectual policies, Qin Shihuang was not as good as Liu Bang.

Sixth: Qin Shihuang imposed harsh punishments and heavy taxes, while Liu Bang's three chapters of the law were light on corvee and light on taxes.

To sum up, Qin Shi Huang was inferior to Liu Bang in everything.
