Liu bang is a small official in a county. He is the curator. One day, when the task came down, he was asked to escort Li, that is, a group of prisoners who went to build Xianyang Palace.

Liu bang had to go, with people on the road. At this time, it rained heavily and the road was slippery. Many people ran away on the first day, which was beyond Liu Bang's control. After all, he is alone, where can he see so many prisoners?

The laws of the Qin Dynasty were very strict. Liu bang can't die, missed the time to die, missed the time, arrived, but there were not enough people, so he had to die!

Reasoning, anyway, is to die, it is better not to go, simply, Liu Bang let the rest of the prisoners die!

On the contrary, these prisoners did not escape. They think that Liu Bang is brave, interesting and a good big brother who can achieve great things, so they all follow Liu Bang, and Liu Bang changed his destiny from here.
