秦亡之际,“项羽兵四十万,号百万。沛公兵十万,号二十万,力不敌。”然而,经过四年多的楚汉战争,兵寡力弱的刘邦居然战胜了“暗噁叱咤,千人皆废”的盖世英雄项羽,成为一代开国帝王。原因何在?刘邦曾自我总结说:“夫运筹策帷帐之中,决胜于千里之外,吾不如子房。镇国家,抚百姓,给馈饷,不绝粮道,吾不如萧何。连百万之军,战必胜,攻必取,吾不如韩信。此三者,皆人杰也,吾能用之,此吾所以取天下也。项羽有一范增而不能用,此其所以为我擒也。”我们认为,善于用人确实是刘邦取胜的主要原因。本文拟对刘、项的用人得失作一番比较研究,以进一步揭示楚汉相争成败之因。一、唯才是举和苛礼唯亲的用人原则在选人用人标准上,是尚礼行,还是赏功能;是唯贤,还是唯亲,反映了两种不同的用人原则。楚汉相争中,在用人原则上, However, after more than four years of the war between Chu and Han, Liu Bang, who was weak in the armed forces, actually defeated the “ Dark evil 叱 咤, thousands of people are wasteful ”Heroes Xiang Yu, a generation of founding kings.

This article intends to make some comparative studies on the pros and cons of employing Liu and Xiang in order to further reveal the causes of the success or failure between Chu and Han. First, the only reason is to use the principle of hiring and cronyism In the selection of employment standards, is still Shang Li, or reward function; is Yin Yin, or only relatives, reflects the two different employment principles.
