    This is mainly because Li Shimin followed his father Taiyuan to raise troops after repeated military exploits, and made significant contributions to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, both in terms of civil and martial arts are far beyond the crown prince Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng encountered such a strong opponent to compete with him for the throne, the contradiction between the two brothers intensified, and it turned into a life-and-death contest, of course, Li Shimin finally won a decisive victory, and his father Li Yuan had to abdicate as the emperor, which should be Li Shimin's prestige at that time has reached the level of people's desire and expectations, That's why he defeated Li Jiancheng so smoothly.

    Li Jiancheng has military talent, but compared to Li Shimin, he is slightly inferior. Li Jiancheng likes to be gentle, combining political means and military attacks, while Li Shimin's style is more fierce and fierce, and he is good at using military force to hit opponents, so when the two sides are bound to fight, Li Jiancheng can only lose.

    Because Li Jiancheng was overconfident. Li Jiancheng pressed Li Shimin step by step, and Li Shimin retreated step by step, which strengthened Li Jiancheng's self-confidence. Before the Xuanwumen Rebellion, Li Yuan summoned Li Shimin to inquire because he received a report from Qin Tianjian indicating that "the King of Qin should have a world", and Li Shimin told Li Yuan about Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's chaotic harem, and Li Yuan decided to hold a family meeting to confront the three brothers.

    Although Li Jiancheng also has a strategy, his personality is a little less decisive. Li Jiancheng, with the support of Li Yuan, isolated Du Ruhui from contact with Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin, and transferred Qin Qiong and others from Li Shimin's side. However, when Wei Zheng proposed to send Li Shimin to remote areas such as Liangzhou and Shudi, he either asked for the abolition of the Tiance General's Mansion and the return of the Qin army's army to the imperial court, or launched a surprise attack to arrest Li Shimin and wait for his army to be disbanded before releasing him.

    He refused, thus losing the initiative.

    Li Jiancheng felt the threat from the King of Qin, maybe Li Jiancheng was not suitable to be a ruler, he had a desire for power and jealousy, but he did not have the ruthlessness to sacrifice all means for power. After Li Jiancheng felt threatened, he also tried to cut off Li Shimin's power through various means. At that time, his loyal fan Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, put forward the idea of killing Li Shimin, but was rejected by Li Jiancheng, maybe he just wanted Li Shimin to lose his power and didn't want his life, he was still too merciful in the end.

    Li Jiancheng is good at employing people, but in comparison, Li Shimin is more able to use people. Not much else, take Wei Zheng as an example, this strategist is not simple, shining. Li Jiancheng listened to some of his words at the beginning, so he achieved some victories, but he didn't listen to them all, especially his suggestion to get rid of Li Shimin.

    Li Shimin was more tolerant, and after Li Jiancheng was killed, he reused Wei Zheng - although he had the intention of killing him, he did not implement it after all, creating a meritorious achievement through the ages.

    When Li Jiancheng arrived at Xuanwu Gate, what was waiting for him was Li Shimin's army with armor. At this time, Li Jiancheng had lost the opportunity in the face of such a situation, and he was even more powerless to resist, and even shot three arrows without harming Li Shimin, but he was shot by Li Shimin with an arrow and lost his life. History only praises the victors, although Li Shimin's move is not recognized by history, he killed his brother and forced his father to seek the throne, but it cannot deny his merits as a king.

    Li Jiancheng has too many conspiracy and too few conspiracies, he didn't prevent his opponent from using assassination at all, and he really lacked a basic understanding of the important place of Xuanwumen, and he was not aware of Chang He's betrayal at all, as for how much he was bought in his own mansion, he didn't know ......

    Whether it is governing the country or founding the country or establishing the country, Li Jiancheng is the level of an ordinary emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and Li Shimin is the first emperor of the ages. It's that gap.

    Li Shimin's descendants have already given the answer. Kill, it doesn't matter what you think, if there's a stir, it's damned. Otherwise, Emperor Shenyao, the hidden prince, would be the end.

    In fact, it only proves one thing, people are invincible. Anyway, the winner takes all, and if you're lucky, you hit the macro dividend, so don't you jump directly to the altar?

    Li Jiancheng. 's strength may not be inferior to Li Shimin.

    Strong, after all, Li Jiancheng has always been cultivated as a prince, Li Yuan.

    Most of the political affairs were handed over to Li Jiancheng to do, which shows that Li Jiancheng's political ability is recognized.

    1. Li Jiancheng's military strength was overshadowed by Li Shimin.

    In the major film and Ming dramas, Li Jiancheng's image is a little unbearable, and many people think that Li Shimin's skills are stronger than Li Jiancheng, so Li Shimin can win the emperor's throne. But history is written by winners, and it is difficult to guarantee that Li Shimin did not change history after he ascended to the throne. According to the existing historical records, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin led the army together at the beginning, and among them, Li Jiancheng also had good leadership ability.

    Even if there is no Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng knows how to use some tricks to seduce the enemy, and then take the city. Although there is no way to compare the military achievements of the two, it does not mean that Li Jiancheng's military strength is worse than Li Shimin. It's just that the record in the history books is that Li Shimin's military strength is more halogenic.

    Second, Li Jiancheng's political ability.

    Very strong. Changes in Xuanwumen.

    Before he appeared, Li Jiancheng had been following his father to deal with government affairs, and the experience accumulated in this was incomparable to Li Shimin. Especially after the establishment of the country, many government affairs were still handed over to Li Jiancheng to do, which is enough to show that the emperor at that time was very sure of Li Jiancheng's status, and definitely wanted to train Li Jiancheng as a future prince. And at the time of the Xuanwumen Change, there were many people who gave advice to you, and were even willing to die for him.

    This is enough to show that Li Jiancheng is kind-hearted and knows how to win people's hearts.

    3. Li Jiancheng is kind to his brothers.

    Li Shimin caught Wei Zheng at the time of the Xuanwumen Change.

    and questioned why Wei Zheng understood the feelings between their brothers. Wei Zheng interviewed unceremoniously, if the prince had listened to me, would you still have the number of rocks today? This shows that Li Jiancheng has a heart of love for Li Shimin in his heart, he can't bear to kill this brother, and he recognizes the feelings between his brother and himself.

    But also because of his soft-heartedness towards his brothers, he gave Zao Da Li Shimin the opportunity to kill Li Jiancheng and then seize his position. <>

    No; According to historical records, in history, they have their own strengths, Li Jiancheng's literary defeat is better than the military, Li Jiancheng is also a very capable person, and his political status is also very high, but because of his own arrogance and domineering, he is not very modest, so he is not as good as Li Shimin in this regard. Reed shed.

    Li Jiancheng's strength is really not as good as Li Shimin, because the Tang Dynasty was able to build a Na Na regime, and Li Shimin paid a lot of nonsense, so Li Shimin's overall strength is very strong, and there is also a lot of popular support.

    Yes; He doesn't have a good ability to employ people, and he is more cautious, afraid of dividing his rights and leaving late, and he is not as ruthless as Li Shimin, if he is stronger than Li Shiman, I think the throne may be his.

  15. Anonymous users2024-02-01

    No; It's just because Li Jiancheng's military ability to stop shouting was covered up by Li Shimin, and Li Jiancheng's IQ is relatively kind, and he doesn't want to compete with his brother Zaijing for Jian Qiye, and his governing ability is also very strong.

    The biggest problem was actually in the emperor at that time, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan.

    Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and among all Li Yuan's children, only Li Shimin is the only one who can really provoke the big beam. Li Yuan had no choice but to make a compromise at this time, this compromise was not only a compromise for himself, but also a compromise for his son, and more importantly, a compromise for the Tang Empire.

    Li Jiancheng saw that the recruited rebels were not trained and worried that they would not be able to fight, so he established a military law and purged the three armies. On the march of the troops into the Xihe River, Li Jiancheng shared weal and woe with the soldiers. The fruits and vegetables planted by the people on the side of the road must be eaten only after they have paid for them, and the food and wine they get are also shared with the soldiers.

    The army marched to the city of Xihe, Li Jiancheng personally went to inform his intention, the people in the city came to vote, only the county Cheng Gao Deru refused to surrender, Li Jiancheng led the army to attack Gao Deru.

    Zhu Zhijin, the county judicial secretary, introduced Li Jiancheng's soldiers and horses into the city from the city, captured Gao Deru alive and beheaded him, and all the other Xihe people were pardoned. Li Jiancheng pacified the Xihe River, and it took only nine days to go back and forth. After the class, Li Yuan was very happy and said:

    With the use of troops in this way, the world can run rampant. "Feng Li Jiancheng was the Duke of Longxi and the Governor of the Left Army.

    Li Yuan was the emperor in the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian was Li Yuan's brother-in-law, and Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty was Li Yuan's cousin, so in the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was officially named the Duke of Tang Guogong, and as Li Yuan's eldest son, Li Jiancheng was buried in the cave since he was born, and Tang Guogong raised an army against Sui, as the second son, Li Shimin killed his father, established an army, recruited generals, and the son Li Jiancheng was promoted to the crown prince, and the inheritance system caused him to be by Li Yuan's side most of the time, if Li Jiancheng was a generous person, Then maybe the King of Qin (Li Shimin's title) will be the King of Qin for the rest of his life, but after all, the military structure of the entire empire was established by Li Shimin, even if Li Shimin does not oppose it, the generals under the Qin Wangfu will also take risks for their own future, so whether there is Li Jiancheng's existence, Li Shimin will seize the status and lead the troops to fight all the year round, which also leads to Li Shimin's decisive character, and the more decisive Li Shimin is, the more worried Li Jiancheng is about himself, but it is a pity that he is burdened by the position of the prince all the year round, and the prince's wings are not full enough, the strength is not enough to compete with Li Shimin, defeat is inevitable, and Li Shimin is given an excuse to resist, this is not a question of ruthlessness, this is a question of whether the military force is enough, in this regard, Li Shimin is far more powerful than Li Jiancheng;

    It's about the same, but Li Shimin's personal force value is higher.

    Li Jiancheng's strength and power are not as wasteful as in the TV series. Xue Wanche, who was praised by Li Shimin as one of the three famous generals in the world, and Wei Zheng, who was outspoken, were his subordinates. At the time of Xuanwu Gate, it can only be said that Li Jiancheng was not prepared, and their brothers were not able to use force alone, if they brought Xue Wanche with them, or Li Yuanji wanted to shout that Li Shimin was the first to kill Li Shimin with an arrow, and the ending would be completely different.

    The following is a personal opinion, first of all, for anyone, the determination required to kill one's own brother is unprecedented. It's hard to imagine someone taking it out as a countermeasure if they weren't in a desperate situation. Li Jiancheng is the crown prince, and he is in an advantageous position from the perspective of political struggle, and killing Li Shimin does not seem to be necessary, as long as there are no mistakes in the middle, he is the rightful emperor.

    Besides, Li Shimin is not so easy to kill. Killing Li Shimin is too risky, but the benefits are not big. If you win, he is the emperor, and if you lose, you may not be the emperor.

    And after doing nothing, he is also an emperor. Li Shimin is different, although it is risky for him to kill Li Jiancheng, but if he doesn't kill him, Li Jiancheng will be the emperor, and it is estimated that he will be destroyed in the future. Moreover, Li Shimin's actions also have great benefits, and if he wins, he will be the emperor.

    Losing or doing nothing ends up being death. In fact, Li Shimin has few choices, his credit is too high, and it is unlikely that Li Jiancheng will leave him alive when he ascends the throne. Either try to be emperor or die.

    Xuanwu Sect Li Shimin can only succeed, once he fails, he will never recover.

    The prince must first control Li Yuan when he kills Li Shimin, otherwise the prince will definitely clean him up if Li Yuan hangs up. Even if it succeeds, it will leave a stain on history. The best way is to divide and disintegrate, eat away at Li Shimin's strength, and then ascend the throne smoothly, which he also did.

    Li Shimin was forced to kill the crown prince.

    Li Jiancheng is the crown prince and has the right to inherit, but Li Shimin has great military achievements and wants to replace him, and Li Jiancheng is also afraid of his younger brother, so both of them want to kill each other, and then Li Jiancheng prepared to do it in advance, but Li Shimin got the news through the traitor, so before Li Jiancheng led the troops into the city, he ambushed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji in the Xuanwu Gate, and then led the troops to force the palace, forcing Li Yuan to establish Li Shimin as the prince, and then Zen throne.

    Li Jiancheng is a good big brother, and the brothers have a very good relationship!

    The tragedy of fratricide was caused by the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang killed his father and brother Yang Yong and other 4 brothers, which spread to the Tang Dynasty and caused Li Shimin's brothers to kill each other, if you don't kill others, others will kill you! (The Chinese have a strong ability to imitate!) )

    Even if Li Jiancheng didn't have murderous intentions at first, but his subordinates said too much, he couldn't help but feel that Li Shimin was his biggest threat, if Li Shimin was not removed, Li Shimin would be called the second Yang Guang, and Li Jiancheng would become the second Yang Yong, and only by killing Li Shimin could he save himself!

    Li Shimin will also encounter the same situation, if you don't kill Li Jiancheng, you will be killed by Li Jiancheng.
