As we all know, the Ming Dynasty was a unified dynasty established by Zhu Yuanzhang, replacing the Yuan Dynasty established by the Mongols. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang use this name of the Ming Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty has had a profound impact on the history of later generations, so let Xiaobian come with you one by one!
?? Zhu Yuanzhang, who started as a farmer and was forced to rebel helplessly, became the emperor, and very early on he ran to the landlord's house to work as a cattle herder because of his livelihood, and at that time there were many small friends together, and once a small partner said that he was hungry and wanted to eat. Ask zhu yuanzhang what to eat, Zhu Yuanzhang said that you can not eat it in front of your eyes, so he killed this calf for everyone to eat, Zhu Yuanzhang told everyone that after you eat this calf, don't be afraid, I will bear it alone. Zhu Yuanzhang was still young, so he ordered everyone to stuff the tail of the ox into the crack of the stone after eating, and went to the landlord's house to tell him that the cow could not be seen in the crack of the stone. As soon as the landlord saw this situation, he immediately understood that they had eaten the calves, so he beat Zhu Yuanzhang violently and did not let him herd the cattle again. At this time, when he returned home to see that his parents were dead, there was only one brother left who was dependent on each other, so he found a place to bury their parents. His brother defected to a family as a door-to-door son-in-law, and Zhu Yuanzhang went to a temple to become a monk.
?? After being a monk for several years because of the war, the abbot let him be good, so he wandered around outside, because the experience of these years made Zhu Yuanzhang enrich a lot of social experience and increase his insight. Once, when I went back to the temple, my friend Tang He, who had grown up playing since childhood, wrote to him that he was now a thousand generals, hoping that he could also be a soldier to defend his family and defend the country!
At this time, it was the turning point of Zhu Yuanzhang's fate, slowly starting from a small soldier, and then step by step becoming the marshal of the rebel army. But at this time, there were two very powerful opponents on both sides of the Yangtze River, one named Chen Youyu and the other named Zhang Shicheng. In the Battle of Poyang Lake, Zhu Yuanzhang destroyed the main force of Chen Youyi, and the Han regime established by Chen Youyu perished! Immediately after that, he personally deployed to first attack some cities next to Suzhou, then Suzhou was isolated and helpless, and finally successfully defeated Zhang Shicheng to occupy half of the jiangnan and had the capital to compete with the Ming Dynasty for the world.
?? Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the time was ripe, so in 1368 he ascended the throne as emperor, with the name of Daming, Jianyuan Hongwu, and the capital of Nanjing, and in the same year sent the general Xu Dabei to destroy the Yuan Dynasty. The reason for using Ming as the national name, the first is that under the Xiaoming King's regime, he was the minister of Jiangnan Zhongshu Province, an official under the Longfeng regime, and according to the Book of the Dragon Slaughter, Zhu Yuanzhang was a sub-altar master of the Ming Sect. Zhang Wuji's prototype is Xiaoming Wang, and later Zhu Yuanzhang killed Xiaoming Wang in order to win the world, of course, this is a political need. Secondly, according to the Five Elements Theory, the predecessor of the Ming Dynasty was Yuan, and the Yuan attribute gold in the five elements, while the Ming attribute fire, light nature and fire are closely related.
History gave Zhu Yuanzhang the opportunity to establish the Ming Dynasty. The Battle of Poyang Lake was more or less accidental, if the arrow shot at that time was not Chen Youyi, but Zhu Yuanzhang, it may be that the powerful Ming Dynasty behind it will soon cease to exist, and the facts have proved that Zhu Yuanzhang is a good emperor!
