Chapter 261: One is willing to fight and one is willing to suffer
"After being promoted, Zhu Yuanzhang left Haozhou City and settled a little far in the south."
"On the way to Dingyuan, he successfully recruited thousands of people, Zhu Yuanzhang led this team to break through the Yuan army camp in Dingyuan, at this time Zhu Yuanzhang was recruiting new soldiers while fighting, and at the same time constantly recruiting and expanding his team, Zhu Yuanzhang's wings are gradually full."
"After Zhu Yuanzhang captured Chuzhou, the old chief Guo Zixing was forced to fight within Haozhou, so he had to leave Haozhou and come to Chuzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately handed over the military power, and in 1355 Zhu Yuanzhang took Hexian, Guo Zixing immediately appointed Zhu Yuanzhang as the chief military officer to guard Hezhou."
"In the sixteenth year of Zhizheng (1356), Guo Zixing died of illness, and the 28-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang became the actual coach of this team, taking advantage of Zhang Shicheng's opportunity to attack the Yuan army in Jiangnan."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was recuperating, finally made a move, and he personally led the army of water and land, and the soldiers attacked Jiqing in three ways. On the 10th, he won Jiqing. and changed its name to Yingtianfu (now Nanjing). ”
"After Zhu Yuanzhang got the territory of Yingtian, he recuperated and quickly expanded his strength, and he was also a warlord at that time."
"While winning the hearts of the people, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang have one thing in common is that they have a strong ability to recognize and employ people, so all kinds of talents are willing to join Zhu Yuanzhang."
"Zhu Yuanzhang has always respected Confucianism very much in the process of opening up the territory."
"These people played a great role in Zhu Yuanzhang's process of unifying the whole country."
"Zhu Yuanzhang established a base with Yingtian as the center, but his own territory was also the smallest, at that time in the Central Plains was also a group of heroes, Yingtian has Chen Youliang in the west, Zhang Shicheng in the east, Chen Youding in the south, Guozhen in the southeast, Zhu Yuanzhang can be said to be the enemy on the back of the abdomen."
"Chen Youding's goal is to protect the land and make a base, and he doesn't have much ambition."
"Zhang Shicheng is a wall-header, and he shouts at the head of the Yuan Dynasty, among which Chen Youliang in the west is the strongest, and at the same time his ambition is also the greatest, he is the most dangerous enemy that Zhu Yuanli encountered after occupying Yingtian."
"Sure enough, as Zhu Yuanzhang expected, soon after Chen Youliang killed Xu Shouhui in quarrying and became emperor, but these territories obviously could not satisfy Chen Youliang, he persuaded Zhang Shicheng to attack Yingtian together, and after the matter was completed, he promised to divide Zhu Yuanzhang's territory equally, and Yingtian's situation was critical."
"Zhu Yuanzhang convened the generals to discuss countermeasures, and for a while there were different opinions, and it was difficult to have a good plan."
Zhu Yuanzhang then asked Liu Bowen's opinion, Liu Bowen thought that although Chen Youliang was the most powerful, but he killed the king and stood on his own, and he was unpopular with the people, Zhang Shicheng has always been a wall-to-wall grass, if he attacks Chen Youliang, he will definitely sit idly by, if he hits Zhang Shicheng first, Chen Youliang will take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
Zhu Yuanzhang agreed with his judgment, so he designed to lure Chen Youliang into his trap.
"Zhu Yuanzhang learned that his subordinate Kang Maocai and Chen Youliang were old friends, Kang Maocai played the role of the Three Kingdoms Huang Gai, he repaired a book, sent someone to Chen Youliang's camp, Kang Maocai pretended to say that he met at Jiangdong Bridge, and asked Chen to attack Yingtian, and sure enough, Chen Youliang believed it."
Yellow Cover: ......
Qianlong: Haha! The description is in place, that Huang Gai, you can have time to let Miss Zhang talk about that problem later, we can't say it.
A sentence after the break: Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer! Let's talk about the specific things later, which basically means that you are willing to be deceived! ”
Fusu: ?? Is that how this sentence is explained? Who else wants to be scammed?
Zhao Kuangyin: Ahem! Right! That's what it means!
"At this moment, Chen Youliang led the main force of the fleet to the Jiangdong Bridge on the outskirts of Yingtian, thinking that he could catch Zhu Yuanzhang off guard, but after he came, he found that he had been deceived."
"But it was too late, Zhu Yuanzhang personally led his generals to attack, and the unprepared Chen Youliang was defeated and fled."
"Subsequently, Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity to attack Jiangxi and southeastern Hubei in an all-out way, and even Chen Youliang's old nest Jiangzhou was ended, and Chen Youliang was homeless and was forced to flee to Wuchang."
"It is not too late for the so-called gentleman to take revenge for three years, and three years later, Chen Youliang, who regained his strength, fought a decisive battle with Zhu Yuanzhang again in Poyang Lake, and the battle between the two sides lasted for 36 days, because Chen Youliang's fleet was defeated by Zhu Yuanzhang's small boats, and as a result, Zhu Yuanzhang burned the serial boats and fled."
"On October 3, 1363, Chen Youliang, one of the heroes of the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, was killed by a cold arrow while breaking through."
"After destroying Chen Youliang, his next target is Zhang Shicheng."
"In May of the twenty-sixth year of Zheng, Zhu Yuanzhang officially issued an order to crusade against Zhang Shicheng."
"Zhu Yuanzhang first surrounded Pingjiang with heavy troops, and then sent people to fight a war of public opinion, revealing the decadence of the rule at the end of the Yuan Dynasty in the crusade, winning the masses, and calming the people's hearts, in November of the same year, Hangzhou, Huzhou and other places surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Shicheng has been isolated and helpless, and can only defend Pingjiang."
"In the end, Zhang Shicheng was captured and sent to Yingtian."
"In the same year, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Tang He to be the general of the southern expedition to defeat Fang Guozhen, who had been in eastern Zhejiang for many years, and finally Fang Guozhen also surrendered."
"After destroying Zhang Shicheng and unifying Jiangnan, in the first year of Hongwu, the 40-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang was proclaimed emperor in Nanjing, and the country was called Daming.
"Zhu Yuanzhang began to order the Northern Expedition, and Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Xu Da to be the main general and Chang Yuchun to be the deputy general, leading an army of 250,000 to the north into the Central Plains."
It took only a little more than a year for the Northern Expeditionary Army to capture Dadu, and the general trend of the Yuan Dynasty had gone, and Emperor Yuan Shun could only abandon the city in embarrassment and flee to the Mongolian steppe. At this point, the 98-year rule of the Mongol aristocracy in the Central Plains came to an end. ”
"Zhu Yuanzhang, as a sheep herding baby, has no background and aristocratic blood, but he miraculously rose to become the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty and created the era of the Ming Dynasty."
"This scene can be said to be a miracle in history, and people have to want to understand the reason for Zhu Yuanzhang's rise."
"Zhu Yuanzhang's early life experience does not seem surprising, but the leadership talent he showed when he was young is amazing."
"He has a great understanding and insight. He quickly saw through the stratagems and tricks of others, and averted many dangers with his clever mind. ”
"In addition, he is extremely mobile, which can be seen from what he rewarded, this hunting is really powerful, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also proficient in equestrianism and bow and arrow skills, and he also has a high interest and understanding of war and military strategy."
"And Zhu Yuanzhang's leadership style is also unusual, in many cases, he will personally go into battle, charge into battle, and be not afraid of robes."
"This particularly courageous act led his soldiers to see him as not only a leader, but also an army commander who would fight to the end for his beliefs and his country."
