mentioned the strikingly similar descriptions in the famous book, [Water Margin]
Here's what he said:
【Journey to the West】
Here's what it says:
Readers at home and abroad know that [Journey to the West] is a novel of gods and demons, and it should not be true.
Is it possible that this scene is real?
[Water Margin] has to think about it, because the author Shi Nai'an experienced the tragic famine at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and he really went to the battlefield to kill people.
In the first year of Hongwu (1368), soon after Ming Taizu ascended the throne, he toured Yangzhou in the north, and was stunned to find that Yangzhou officials brought a small group of beggars to the emperor.
Stills from Hu Jun's version of the TV series [Zhu Yuanzhang].
What about the rich world in Yangzhou?
This official's name is Lu Mingyi, who is the lord of Yangzhou, and when he saw the emperor's inquiry, he hurriedly explained that it was nothing more than the emperor in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty who was mediocre, greedy for pleasure, and overwhelmed the working people at the bottom with excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
This is part of the TV series shown to the audience, in fact, it is even more cruel!
The real reason is that Ming Taizu knows it well! Yangzhou people have been eaten up!
In the Zheng period, drought and locusts alternately famine and plague broke out, officials were corrupt, the Yuan court disaster relief was better than nothing, the Yuan government was not outlined, thieves were everywhere, all kinds of uprisings ant gathered in the bee tun, and Zhang Mingjian, the leader of the Tsing Yi Army, took refuge in Zhennan Wang Polo Puhua (also known as Polo Buhua).
[History of the Ming Dynasty, Benji I, Taizu I]
The account of Zhang Mingjian is very brief
Zhang Mingjian only said in the end that he surrendered to Miao Tycoon
[Ming, Gold, Emperor Ming, Founding Heroes, Biography of Miao Tycoon]
Records
The introduction of Zhang Mingjian is also a passing mention
[History of the Ming Dynasty, Volume 1340, Biography 22, Miao Daheng] is more detailed
At the beginning, Mingjian gathered people in Huaixi, with the name of green cloth, called "Qingjun." He also used the good spear (according to the original word iron word next to the warehouse, can not be played), called "long army." ”
From Hanshan to Yangzhou, the southern king of Yuanzhen Po Luo Puhua surrendered, thinking that he was the marshal of the Haosi Volunteer Army.
Over the years, he ate all his food, and plotted to support the king and make trouble.
The king died in Huai'an.
Ming Jian then took the city and slaughtered the inhabitants for food.
The tycoon said to Taizu: The thief is hungry, and if he preys on it, it will be difficult to control it. And the owl can be used, and nothing is available for others. Taizu ordered the tycoon to attack urgently, and Mingjian surrendered, winning tens of thousands of people and more than 2,000 horses
Zhang Mingjian started an incident in Huaixi, and all of them wore green clothes, so they were called the Qingjun or Tsing Yi Army, and their soldiers used spears, so they were also called spear troops.
Named the Righteous Army, it is actually a thief, plundering everywhere, there is no military discipline at all, and then he took refuge in Yangzhou Zhennan Wang Polophua, and served as the marshal of Hao and Siyibing.
Immediately after a severe famine, Zhang Mingjian wanted to support Porop and become the emperor, and completely rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty to attack the city and plunder the land.
Polo Puhua, the king of Zhennan, was the grandson of Tuhuan, the ninth son of Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, and was expelled to Huai'an Road by Zhang Mingjian.
In October of the sixteenth year of Zheng (1356), Zhao Jun attacked Huai'an, and Polopuhua was forced to commit suicide by diving.
In the seventeenth year of Yuan Zhizheng (1357), in October, Miao Tycoon broke Yangzhou, and Zhang Mingjian surrendered
