The famous generals of the Ming Dynasty were mainly concentrated in the three periods of taizu and chengzu in the early Ming Dynasty, the anti-Wu and the late Ming dynasty, and the other periods were lackluster; in fact, there were two people who used soldiers quite strongly, one was Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and the other was Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, but they were not counted among the famous generals.
