[Biography of Zhu Yuanzhang] 21 History of the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties.

The content of this video It’s a thrilling battle to defend Hongdu. But before talking about the war in the south Let’s briefly lay the groundwork for the situation in the north. mentioned in the previous issue Li Chahan's business failed half way through Wang Baobao inherited the power of his uncle Li Chahan Completely annihilate the Shandong Red Turban Army The Longfeng regime was completely wiped out in its three-pronged Northern Expedition. Only Zhu Yuanzhang in Nanjing is left alone. Most of them received good news Reward the meritorious soldiers Confer Wang Baobao the title of Taiwei Privy Academician of Central Pingzhang Branch Crown Prince Zhan and a series of official titles Richard Khan died at the age of 34 Wang Baobao was raised by him as a son since he was a child The age gap between the two should be quite large Infer this Baobao Wang is estimated to be sixteen or seventeen years old at this time. He became a Taiwei at the age of sixteen or seventeen. He is also considered a top-notch rich and handsome man. Long Aotian starts the game After Wang Baobao wiped out the Shandong Rebel Army, Return to Luoyang and take charge Start planning for the next step From the perspective of Wang Baobao Boro is more annoying than anyone else Because he had repeatedly taken advantage of his uncle Richard's rebellion When suppressing the Red Turban Army stabbing in the back Later Richard rebelled against sailing in the gutter Not only did Boluo not send anyone to offer condolences and condolences, Instead, they took advantage of the situation and robbed it. Shijiazhuang where the baby was taken away Not to mention the conflict between Wang Baobao and Bo Luo In fact, it was passed down from their previous generation. Belongs to a feud The kind that doesn’t reconcile unless necessary So Wang Baobao’s first hunting target Not the Red Turban Army south of the Yangtze River But it is located in Boluo, north of Taiyuan. Of course, get rid of this layer of personal grudges Only from a strategic analysis perspective Baby Wang should do the same Zhu Yuanzhang agrees The Yangtze River has been a natural hazard since ancient times Of course we should win the division championship first Expedition to the north or south It depends on whose integration speed is faster So after Wang Baobao stabilized the situation, he Immediately, he took the initiative to send people to express his goodwill to Zhu Yuanzhang. To show sincerity Baby Wang returned The envoy previously detained by Richard Kan He even gave Zhu Yuanzhang a war horse. Talking about insisting on sticking to the outline and going online This is already an act of encouraging the enemy. In response Zhu Yuanzhang once again sent the talented Wang He as an envoy to the Central Plains Sent some circles Both sides compliment each other But Wang Baobao thinks Wang He is a useful talent He was detained Not allowed to go back After Bao Bao and Chong Bago signed a non-aggression agreement Then I settled an old score with Boluo. The situation in the north at that time It’s roughly Baobao Wang and his uncle. Li Siqi, his old friend during his lifetime, formed an alliance Alliance against Boro and Zhang Liangbi Boluo and Li Siqi fought in April To support teammates Wang Baobao also sent troops Zhang Liangbi, the younger brother who attacked Boluo In June, Wang Baobao counterattacked Boluo's territory Baoding. failed to succeed Wang Baobao is already determined at this time. Go against Boro then The imperial court ordered Boluo to go to the south to suppress the Red Turban Army. Wang Baobao and Li Siqi learned about this Then he sent troops to guard the five passes. All the passes on the Shu Road are blocked Just don't let Boluo's people pass. Make Boluo anxious You can only complain to the court Ask Wang Baobao to get out of Tongguan quickly Leave a way for him to go south Moro was repeatedly made things difficult by Wang Baobao very angry So we made a plan Want to drive Wang Baobao and Li Siqi out of Guanzhong At that time, Wang Baobao was in great difficulty. Shaanxi provincial officials also wanted to drive him away Just mix it up with Boluo in private Introduced Boluo's army into Xi'an When Wang Baobao saw this, it was fine. So he and Li Siqi sent troops to besiege Boro's general Didn't keep it His plan to intervene in Guanzhong ended in failure In August, Wang Baobao attacked Boluo Temucus again and defeat the opponent It sounds like there is Have fun Boro dealt with Richard Hay with a gun in hand But he couldn't beat Baobao Wang no matter what. Boro is like a 5 year old If you are bullied outside, you will cry and go home to complain. He complained to the court Baby Wang is just like his father Richard Hay He's a bad guy Your Majesty must make the decision for me Punish this boy well This is a bit funny to say You can't beat Baby Wang Then Emperor Yuan Shun would be even more unable to deal with it. Moro was unwilling Attacked Taiyuan again in October Once again defeated at the hands of Wang Baobao Moro was defeated by the baby many times lost heavily Power is declining The hatred between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper. Seeing the world full of strife Ming Yuzhen, the general of the Xu Song Red Turban Army who occupied Sichuan Taking advantage of the situation, he proclaimed himself emperor Guohao Building Emperor Tiantong During the reign of Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty Very interesting If you are lucky enough to live in this era You can see both summer and summer in your life I can see both Zhou and Han I can see both Wu and Song I can see gold again Can see Yuan again Can still see the light In addition, in the far southwest border A very historic event occurred Must mention At that time, the Central Plains and Jiangnan were in turmoil. In order to strengthen the management of Guangxi The imperial court ordered the establishment of Guangxi Province Taking Ergini as the province chapter in the history of the federation Guangxi finally became an official province This is a milestone in the development history of Guangxi The previous issue mentioned that Yao Jun launched a rebellion in Jinhua Killing guard Hu Dahai And Zhu Yuanzhang’s nephew Li Wenzhong suddenly emerged as a new force. Successfully took over the power vacuum left by Hu Dahai Become the Optimus Prime of the Eastern Zhejiang Defense Line And in Jiangxi Given that the previous year The Han army counterattacked in Nanchang In order to strengthen the defense force here, Zhu Yuanzhang He also sent a large number of civil and military personnel to the guard general Deng Yu. Including his nephew Zhu Wenzheng, the governor-general Marshal Zhao Desheng Strong man Xue Xian and military advisor Wang Guangyang and others Zhu Wenzheng is an ordinary little genius guarding the city. After he took office, he began to sum up his experience At that time, when Chen Youliang attacked Dangtu, Because the Dangtu city wall is close to the river, As a result, the Han army climbed directly from the stern of the ship to the top of the city. Dangtu fell because of this To avoid repeating the same mistakes Zhu Wenzheng built the Nanchang City Wall Moved 30 steps back from the shore He also led the soldiers to heighten and widen the Transformed this place into a strong military fortress Zhu Yuanzhang is in the east and west The nephews and nephews were appointed as top leaders respectively. Finally feel relieved Start playing farming again In order to ensure sufficient food and grass In addition to selling salt and iron tea, Wu Guogong He also specially arranged for his soldiers to carry out large-scale farming. He told the soldiers that the country wanted to prosper We must strengthen our troops and feed them well In the past, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened up the Western Regions Wei Wudi Shaping Central Plains Don’t rely on farming The world is in chaos now People don't have a stable environment to farm. If the people are always required to pay food to supply military supplies, The burden is too great for them You should just farm to support yourselves. Then Zhu Yuanzhang took the large wasteland outside Yingtian City Leave it all to the soldiers to grow vegetables and melons Chong Bago also checks their hands regularly Anyone with a lot of calluses on their hands is a diligent person Those who have thin skin and tender meat are lazy people But just having food and grass is not enough Because Zhu Yuanzhang did not occupy the full This greatly affects the actual combat effectiveness Although Wang Baobao gave him a batch of But it's not enough The war horses were all in the north at that time Brother Chongba just killed three Yuan Dynasty envoys the year before. It is certainly impossible for the ape-man to take the war horse Sold to him, a rebel Zhu Yuanzhang racked his brains and came up with a good idea Although my identity is a rebel But Fang Guozhen’s identity is Dayuan Zhejiang Province participates in politics You won't sell it to me You will always sell it to Brother Fang, right? So Zhu Yuanzhang gave Fang Guozhen 3,000 taels of silver Let him go to the north to buy war horses as we all know Brother Fang will not give up any opportunity to curry favor with Chong Bage. He agreed immediately Brother Fang’s people have arrived in the north Show your official identity I told the seller that my ancestors were from the Yuan Dynasty and participated in politics in Zhejiang Province. Come buy a horse from you Just to transport them to the south to suppress the flood thieves You said you were selling it to me Or sell it to me? The Mai family is speechless I can only accept the money and deliver the goods. that's all A large number of war horses carefully bred by the Yuan Dynasty sailed south by boat In the Great Yuan Dynasty, those who participated in politics in Zhejiang Province were cleansed Finally, it came into the hands of Duke Wu of the Song Dynasty. Brother Fang willingly made white gloves for once Let Chong Bage write it in a small notebook Added a lot of human kindness to myself Personally feel If Brother Fang writes a book called Emotional Intelligence It will definitely be at the top of the best-seller list Counting from when Zhu Yuanzhang crossed the river and captured Nanjing Zhang Shicheng has been fighting with him for six or seven years. Lieutenant Zhang of the Yuan Dynasty hated Duke Wu of the Song Dynasty deeply. Will not give up any opportunity to weaken the opponent Even if there is no chance Will also take the initiative to create opportunities So this year has just begun spring Zhang Shi established the horse Sent General Lu Zhen to attack with 100,000 troops and horses Zhu Yuanzhang's superior Han Ling'er Liu Futong fought against the Yuan Dynasty for several years exhausted all strength This time he was attacked again by Zhang Shicheng There is really no way All we can do is wait for help The Yuan army attacks the Holy Level food shortage in city The people were so hungry that they buried the dead They dug them all out and ate them Zhu Yuanzhang received a letter asking for help from Liu Futong Discuss the matter of death with your subordinates immediately at this time Liu Bowen has already dealt with his mother’s funeral Returned to Nanjing to work He said to Zhu Yuanzhang that if you send the main force to Jiangbei, What if Chen Youliang takes advantage of the opportunity to attack Nanjing? What should we do then? Besides, Han Linger is just a mascot. Ning rescue him How to place him? It's better to just let Zhang Shicheng kill him. This is good for everyone Zhu Yuanzhang retorted If Zhang Shicheng killed Han Ling'er His power will grow stronger There will be no way to deal with it then Can't help but save subsequently Zhu Yuanzhang personally led General Xu Chang to cross the river to rescue Han Ling'er Chang Yuchun wins three out of three games Drive away Lu Zhen Rescued Han Linger But in the previous battle, Liu Futong Died at the hands of Lu Zhen His general Mei Sizu also defected to Zhang Shicheng Arranged by Brother Cheng to guard Huai'an Zuo Junbi, the defender of Hefei in the Han Dynasty, saw this Send troops to help Lu Zhen attack the Song army When spring comes, one versus two Defeated the Han and Yuan coalition forces again Zhu Yuanzhang's actions to help the Han army with reinforcements very angry Ordered Xu Da to further send troops to attack Hefei He was restricted from returning to Nanjing So it was once again occupied by reinforcements Although Zhu Yuanzhang rescued Han Linger, But he did not take him back to Nanjing Because everyone knows Zhu Yuanzhang actually became his own sect If Han Ling'er goes, it will only embarrass everyone. So he placed the little emperor in Chuzhou But a vacant position was set up for Han Ling'er in Nanjing Leading the officials to bow down Liu Bowen was furious when he saw this Scolding a country bumpkin who herds sheep What is there to pray for? So he took the lead and refused to worship Zhu Yuanzhang made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty in order to commend him Han Ling promoted Zhu Yuanzhang to the right prime minister of the Central Committee of the Song Dynasty. He also issued an edict to honor three generations of his ancestors. great-grandfather Zhu Jiusi Worked for Wu Guo Company and also served as Jiangxi Pingzhang Great-grandmother Hou was Mrs. Wu Guo Grandpa Zhu Chuyi Serve as Duke of Wu, Situ of Zhuguo, and Pingzhang of Jiangnan Grandma Wang is Mrs. Wu Guo Dad Zhu Wusi For the official government of Wu State, he was in charge of the third division of Yitong. The Right Prime Minister and Taiwei of the Central Committee of the Upper Kingdoms Mother Chen is Mrs. Wu Guo Compare it like this Chong Bage has worked hard for ten years He is actually the one with the lowest official position among the four generations of his ancestors. A member of your family So during this time Xu Da and Chang Yuchun still stayed in Jiangbei and besieged Hefei. We've known each other like this for three whole months and still can't get over it. Just when Xu Da was chewing on the hard nut of Hefei The Eastern and Western Fronts were in great danger at the same time Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang in Jiangxi Especially Anqing The repeated tug of war between Jiujiang and Nanchang is very intense and cruel Last year, Xiong Tianrui led his army to recapture Ji'an. The mystery was recaptured by Zhu Wenzheng's counterattack but Chen Youliang always maintained strong pressure on Zhu Yuanzhang February 1362 While Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting with Zuo Junbi in Jiangbei, Chen Youliang led an army of 600,000 to arrive empty-handed. Take a giant ship to fight from Wuchang to Jiangxi Zhang Dingbian, the great captain of the Han Dynasty, lived up to expectations Retake Jiujiang and Anqing again Anqing guard Zhao Zhongzhong and others fled back in a hurry Throat towns like Yingtian and Anqing were repeatedly lost. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious He ignored Chang Yuchun's request Give Zhao Zhongzhong’s wife and daughter a bowstring Let them be handed over to Zhao Zhongzhong make him commit suicide After the death of Zhao Zhongzhong Zhu Yuanzhang ordered his younger brother to That is, the later Nanxiong Hou Zhao Yong Continue to lead the team subsequently Zhang Dingbian took advantage of Song Jiang's spare time to have an internal dispute with his colleagues. Massive attack Captured territory in 7 counties around Poyang Lake Yu Guang and Yang Xian were forced to run away When the Han army launched a massive counterattack in Jiangxi Xie Zaixing, the defender of Zhuji, an important town on the eastern front Actually killed Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant Defected to Emperor Zhang of the Yuan Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang once again fell into the crisis of multi-front combat Fortunately, Xie Zaixin has two thousand households under his account. Jack Ma refuses to defect to Zhang Shicheng So he came back with his troops Zhu Yuanzhang is very I am happy to promote them vigorously However, the deeds of these two men mainly occurred after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Here first press the layout list After Chen Youliang recaptured the counties around Poyang Lake, Immediately send a large army to surround Hongdu Since he seized power and proclaimed himself emperor Too many old generals defected to the enemy The worst impact among them Just take the whole Nanchang with you Hu Mei, the military leader who surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang Chen Youliang stared at Nanchang this time. Just to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys let everyone see What will happen to those who betray him, Old Chen? After the Han warships arrived at Nanchang City I still want to replicate the tactics used to defeat Dangtu back then. Only when we got to the shore did we find out The city wall moved back 30 steps inexplicably There is no way to climb directly to the top of the city from the stern of the ship. We can only send infantry ashore to besiege the city. Under the gaze of Tengwang Pavilion standing on the east bank of Ganjiang River The Battle of Hongdu officially begins At that time, Nanchang had a total of 8 city gates. Zhu Wenzheng ordered Deng Yu to guard Fuzhou Gate Zhao Desheng Shou Gong Department, Municipal Department and Overseas Chinese Department Xue Xian guards Zhangjiang Gate and New City Gate Niu Hailong guards the Liuli Gate and Tantai Gate Unremarkable Zhu Wenzheng, the little genius who defends the city, takes command from the center. There were even 2,000 mobile troops left behind to cope with emergencies Chen Youliang first pointed the finger at Aiming at the Fuzhou Gate guarded by Deng Yu The Han army picked up their shields Against the Song army's bows, arrows and rolling rocks, they launched a massive attack A 100-meter-long gap was created in the city wall. and charge towards the gap did not expect Deng Yu deployed a large number of gunmen behind the city wall. The Song army fired all guns blazing The front row of the Han army was penetrated Seeing this, the back row could only retreat temporarily. Deng Yu took advantage of the Han army's brief retreat Order the craftsmen to build the fence Fill the gap in the city wall Upon seeing this, the Han army came to pull out the fence without fear of their lives. Just when Deng Yu could hardly hold on anymore Zhu Wenzheng came to support with 2,000 mobile troops The two generals will fight to the death in the front row without quitting their work. Carpenters are repairing the city wall in the back row The Han army frantically attacked the gap. But I can't get past Zhu Wenzheng and Deng Yu. After a night of fighting City wall repair completed The shaky Fuzhou Gate finally stabilized But in other directions Marshal Niu Hailong who guards Liuli Gate and Tantai Gate As well as a large number of generals under his account, they were all killed by the Han army. The situation is still serious Chen Youliang saw that the war was progressing Then he divided his troops again and sent out Capture Ji'an Linjiang and Wuwei Captured a large number of officials placed by Zhu Yuanzhang Lao Chen was not polite to them either. Beheading should be beheaded Chen Jiang deserves Chen Jiang There are still a few who refuse to give in. He dragged him to the gate of Nanchang City Chopped in front of the defenders Chen Youliang saw that the Song army was still resisting tenaciously. Attack the new city gate again The people guarding this place are Zhao Junyong's old subordinates. A tough guy takes risks There is no word passive defense in Xue Xian's dictionary He directly led his elite troops out of the city to charge into battle. Enter the Han army camp Kill the big man Pingzhang captures the big man alive The restoration of density made Chen Youliang courageous We can only retreat again Time comes to June Chen Youliang has been besieging Hongdu for more than two months. Under the blows of cannons, rocks, logs and rockets The Han army still made no progress Chen Youliang ordered the navy to attack Shuiguan. Zhu Wenzheng ordered people to hold iron guns Ambush on both sides of Shuiguan fence As soon as the Han army arrived, they attacked When the Han army saw this, they grabbed their spears with their hands. The Song army was unable to advance or retreat very embarrassing after a while The Han army attacks again Song Jun thrust his iron gun out again The Han army still grabbed it with their hands As a result, I screamed in pain when I scratched it. It turns out that Zhu Wenzheng took advantage of the retreat of the Han army just now Order people to light a fire and put the iron gun on it to bake When it's roasted, poke it out. The claws of the Han army were burned to perfection Can only retreat again Chen Youliang's water supply pass was defeated So change the target again The main attack was on the one guarded by Zhao Desheng. two city gates Zhao Desheng commanded the battle on the city As a result, the Han army under the city shot an arrow Hit him right in the waist The depth reaches five or six inches Zhao Desheng knew he would die. Pull out the arrow in anger Looking up to the sky and sighing: I joined the army in my prime numerous injuries Never has it been as serious as today It seems I deserve death If a man dies, he dies no pity I just regret that I don’t have the chance to drive the Meng Yuan north again. After saying this, he died in anger Zhu Yuanzhang was very sorry Later, Zhao Desheng was named Liang Guogong. The four generals guarding the eight gates of Hongdu So far, two of them have been killed by Chen Youliang. So he increased his efforts again In order to delay the Han army's offensive Zhu Wenzheng sent a Song general out of the city Agreed with Chen Youliang to surrender Chen Youliang was overjoyed The attack was suspended for a while Arrived at the appointed time Chen Youliang waited anxiously for the other party to open the door. As a result, the city remained indifferent. Chen Youliang found out that he had been tricked He was so angry that he forced General Song to parade through the city in public. Then cut it with a knife Continue to attack the city Nanchang was besieged by hundreds of thousands of troops. Internal and external traffic is cut off Zhu Wenzheng felt that sooner or later he would fail if he continued like this. So he sent Qianhu Zhang Ziming to sneak out of the city Go to Nanjing for emergency Zhang Ziming found a small fishing boat Sneaking out of Shuiguan in the middle of the night Since the Jiangxi area has been controlled by the Han army, Zhang Zimin did not dare to leave openly Can only sleep during the day On the road at night It took me half a month to reach Nanjing. After meeting Zhang Zimin Zhu Yuanzhang asked Chen Youliang how the army was doing Zhang Zimin replied that although Chen Youliang’s troops were strong, But we have killed many of them Now the river is almost drying up The Han army's giant ships have difficulty moving Moreover, they could not conquer the city for three months. Shi Laobingpi is at the end of his crossbow As long as our reinforcements clear the way We can definitely defeat the Han army, but Zhu Yuanzhang believed that the situation was not serious yet So he replied that you should go back and tell Zhu Wenzheng There is a way if you stick to it I'll be here with reinforcements in a month. After Zhang Zimin received the order, Take the boat back immediately The result was at Sanjiangkou, Jiujiang Caught by Han army patrol Zhang Zimin knew that he would definitely die But he can't die here He still has an unfinished mission So I told the Han army that I had information and a message You leave me alive Take me to your lord After Chen Youliang met Zhang Zimin, Got an idea immediately Zhang Zimin is Zhu Yuanzhang's envoy His words carry weight with the defenders. So Chen Youliang said to Zhang Zimin clearly: As long as you help me persuade Nanchang to surrender Not only will you not die You can also enjoy the glory and wealth After hearing this, Zhang Zimin kept saying "Okay, okay, okay" Although there is no record in history books But Chen Youliang is sure I spit in my heart with great disdain. Turns out he’s also a weakling subsequently Chen Youliang brought Zhang Zimin to Nanchang City Chen Youliang is imagining What would the defenders' expression be like when they heard the words of persuasion to surrender? Zhang Zimin actually shouted to the city The lord's army is coming soon You guys must stick to it After Chen Youliang heard this, Long Yan was furious. Zhang Zimin was stabbed to death on the spot The Song troops in the city were filled with grief and anger when they saw this scene. Everyone raised their fingers and tore apart their will to fight, becoming even more determined. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang was very heartbroken when he learned about this incident. Zhang Zimin was promoted from a thousand households to the title of Marquis of the End that's all Zhu Wenzheng and Chen Youliang were coming and going at Nanchang City Battle of wits and courage Been fighting for 3 months straight And Xu Da and Zuo Junbi were also at the gate of Hefei City. Mutual exchange Battle of wits and courage Been fighting for 3 months straight Plus Xie Zaixing, the most experienced Zhuji garrison on the Eastern Front Defection to Zhang Shicheng The situation is getting more and more out of control Zhu Wenzheng’s performance again Liangyan could only parry in front of Chen Youliang without the power to fight back It can be seen from the map The Han army has recaptured almost all of Jiangxi Zhu Yuanzhang is very worried now he said angrily I really regret not listening to Liu Bowen's words If Chen Youliang hadn’t killed Hongdu But along the river Dongxia Directly to Nanjing I'm afraid we're on a roll Fortunately, Chen Youliang didn't do this. It seems that he really doesn't know how to use soldiers. at this point Hurry up and let General Xuchang return to Nanjing. We sent troops to support Nanchang As Zhu Yuanzhang made the decision to support Nanchang The largest water war in the ancient history of the entire world Battle of Poyang Lake The war is about to begin
