Zheng He's story

Zheng He, whose original name was Ma Sanbao, a native of Yunnan, was intelligent and studious since childhood, because he was a devout Muslim, and his greatest wish in life was to make a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca, so he had a strong interest in sailing since he was a child. Yunnan to the seller is thousands of miles apart, and his father often tells her about the thrilling experiences of breaking the waves and wading through the mountains and rivers during the pilgrimage, and strange people and strange things in foreign countries, which deeply attracted the young Zheng He.

Because of this, he worked hard to exercise and learn the knowledge related to navigation, because he had a belief in his heart that one day he would ride the wind and waves and make a pilgrimage to Mecca.

In 1381, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Blue Jade on an expedition to Yunnan, and soon the Ming army pacified Yunnan, and many children became prisoners of war after the war. But there was an extremely cruel practice in dealing with these little prisoners of war - castration, and Ma Sanbao, who was only 11 years old, was one of them.

From then on, this teenager began to fight with the Ming army in all directions. The wind and snow in the north and the yellow sand of the desert have left the footprints of this teenager everywhere. At his age, it was the age of Trojan horses and dolls, and swords and spears replaced these. In the barracks, no one treated him like a child, and no one went to protect her and take care of him.

We cannot imagine how much suffering he suffered, how many times he escaped death, only that the tragic encounter did not erase his hopes and faith. After spending five years in the barracks, he met Zhu Di, the King of Yan.

Zhu Di took a look at this resolute teenager and followed Zhu Di from then on. In the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Di adopted his strategy and broke li Jinglong's seven battalions. Defeated the Confederates.

After Zhu Di ascended the throne, he made him a eunuch of the internal officials, the highest official position within the internal officials, and gave him the surname Zheng, after which he changed his name to Zheng He. The name is destined to shine through the annals of history.

Zhu Di arranged for Zheng He to go to sea, in addition to looking for Emperor Jianwen, there was also a deep purpose, he also shouldered the mission of subjugating the four seas, but any strong and prosperous dynasty, there will certainly be such a move. For example, the Silk Road of the Han Dynasty and the students from other countries in the Tang Dynasty came to the mainland to learn advanced technologies, which are manifestations of this tradition. The mighty Ming Dynasty was now well fed and silver, so what was there around this huge country?

Zhu Di, the wise monarch, entrusted Zheng He with something that no one had ever done in history, and he was the most suitable person from any point of view. Rich navigation knowledge, experienced in the battlefield, tenacious and tenacious personality, who gives up others.

Zheng He sailed away with his armada. Its flagship ship is a treasure ship rare in history. The ship is three stories high and is a veritable aircraft carrier. This time, it also has transport ships, warships, and water ships that transport people, and the number of people it carries is more than 27,800 people.

Wherever such a large fleet goes, there is no war and blood, only peace and friendliness. During this period, the conflict with the king of Java was peacefully resolved, which was greatly appreciated by Zhu Di. When Zheng He reached the end point in Mali, he led his subordinates and locals to build a monument pavilion and engraved an inscription to commemorate this history.

Liang Qichao said: "After Zheng He, there is no more Zheng He."
