The ancients said that "the boy's meritorious name only needs to be taken immediately, and should not be asked from the book", so the Ban Chao in the Han Dynasty threw his pen from Rong, and he relied on powerful martial arts to fight on the battlefield and establish a powerful meritorious deed. There are many people who imitate Ban Chao in later generations, but there are very few people who are really successful, but battlefield conquests often have a huge danger to their lives, because swords and guns have no eyes, and everyone can be hit by the enemy, even the emperor.
In the Battle of Poyang Lake in the 23rd year of Zhizheng (1363), Zhu Yuanzhang, who later became emperor, was almost hit and whimpered, and the reason why he survived and was able to establish the Ming Dynasty was because a general named Chen De blocked 9 arrows for him with his body, which gave him the opportunity to escape calmly.
The Poyang Lake Water Battle was the largest water battle in the world in the entire Middle Ages, which was a strategic decisive battle fought in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty led by zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youyi respectively in order to fight the strategic poyang lake, which had a far-reaching impact.
Zhu Yuanzhang led an army of 200,000, while Chen Youyu had an army of 650,000, and his family was extremely generous, and there were hundreds of tall and well-equipped warships in the water army, and the ships used when Ming Chengzu sent Zheng He on missions to the West later inherited Chen Youyu's shipbuilding technology, but at that time, this tall warship made Zhu Yuanzhang extremely distressed, because he could not fight no matter how he fought.
Fortunately, although Chen Youyi's warships were tall and strong, their speed was relatively slow, so the two sides fell into a state of confrontation for a while, but the situation developed day by day in a direction unfavorable to Zhu Yuanzhang, especially in the Battle of Kanglang Mountain on July 21, Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on a handsome ship, commanding Xu Da and others to kill the enemy, but was discovered by Zhang Dingbian, a fierce general under Chen Youyu.
Zhang Dingbian was revered by posterity as the "first fierce general at the end of the Yuan Dynasty", because after discovering Zhu Yuanzhang's handsome ship, he immediately drove a small boat and directly rushed into the camp of Zhu Yuanzhang's army, broke through the blockade, and killed three generals in succession, all those who tried to stop him were killed.
However, at this critical moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's ship had a problem, I don't know whether the soldiers driving the ship were too nervous or for what reason, the ship was directly stranded and could not move (the boat was glued to the sand, could not retreat, the danger was very serious), at this time Zhu Yuanzhang's general was only Chen De, he struggled to block Zhang Dingbian, Zhang Dingbian ordered the accompanying soldiers to shoot arrows at Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen De used his body as a shield, after 9 arrows, he fainted, but still stood in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's body and did not fall.
In the end, Chang Yuchun arrived in time, an arrow shot Zhang Dingbian to frighten him back, only to save Zhu Yuanzhang's life, and Chen De also immediately received proper treatment, his body recovered as before, continued to fight for Zhu Yuanzhang's southern conquest of the north, Yu Hongwu was named the Marquis of Linjiang in 3 years, and later he died of illness in Hongwu 11 years because of the recurrence of arrow sores, his son Chen Yong inherited the title of Marquis of Linjiang, and after Chen Yong died on the battlefield, Chen De's grandson Chen Zishan inherited this title.
It was only in the 23rd year of Hongwu that the Korean duke Li Shanchang was reported to be related to Hu Weiyong's case, zhu Yuanzhang ordered a thorough investigation, and finally found out that Chen Yong was also involved in The incident of Hu Weiyong's rebellion, so he ordered the Linjiang Marquis to raid his home but left Chen Zishan's life, Chen Zishan was still unconvinced to question Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "If it were not for the favor of Chen De, the Linjiang Marquis Would have been extinct, and He gu could not bear to see Chen De without a queen!" ”
