Zhu Yuanzhang's nine northern expeditions reappeared the glory of Han and Tang dynasties

As the last political power established by the people of the Central Plains in ancient China, the Ming Dynasty represented the last glory of the farming people in China. In its heyday, it was called "Gang Ming" because it ruled the Tang and Song Dynasties, stayed away from the Han and Tang Dynasties, had no blood relationship between the Han and Tang Dynasties, and had no coins from the Song Dynasty. Daming's glory began with nine large-scale northern expeditions by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of Hongwu.

The First Northern Expedition (1367)—— The War of Founding a State

In fact, the Northern Expedition was the battle of the Central Plains in Beiding, and it was a strategic decisive battle launched by Zhu Yuanzhang Group against the Yuan Dynasty after sweeping the south of the Yangtze River. 1367, Zhu Yuanzhang, then the king of the western kingdom of Wu, took Xu Da as the general conqueror and Chang Yuchun as his deputy, and went north to the Central Plains to capture the Yuan Dynasty, recovering sixteen counties that had been lost for more than 400 years since the Five Dynasties, and then established Daming in Nanjing, the emperor of China, on 1368. Later, Xu Da moved westward to Lanzhou, and the ministries of the Ming army gradually settled on the Central Plains, completing the preliminary determination of China's territory.

The Second Northern Expedition (1370)-It's advisable to chase after the remaining brave.

In the early days of Daming, Yuan Shundi stayed in the northern region and tried to enter the metropolis again. So, Zhu Yuanzhang once again took Xu Da as the general, Li Wenzhong, Sheng Feng, Tanghe and Deng Yu as his deputies, and attacked Beiyuan in two ways, which was an elite. Xu Da led the army into Dingxi and annihilated the Wang Baobao Department of the Yuan Army. Li Wenzhong went out of Juyongguan and fell to Yingchang House, the temporary capital of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Yuan Shundi was worried to death. After this campaign, there was no main force of yuan army in the near-Serbia area.

The Third Northern Expedition (1372)-The Awakening of Temujin's Descendants

In order to completely eliminate the forces of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, The Ming dynasty emperors and his subjects launched the Northern Expedition again on 1372, and officially set off for the desert. This time, the soldiers were divided into three routes: the Middle Route Army of Xu Datong, the General Route Army of Li Wenzhong and the West Route Army of Feng Shengtong. But at this time, Temujin's descendants, who were far away from the gentle township in the Central Plains and returned to the desert, had restored the blood of their ancestors and assembled heavy troops to resist the Ming army. During the Northern Expedition, Fu Youde, a forward of the marked army, was born and gained a lot. The Eastern Army gained and lost a lot, while the Chinese Army was defeated.

The Fourth Northern Expedition (1380)—— A Small Experiment of Great Skill

After learning the lesson of the last rash advance, the Ming army quickly changed its strategy and temporarily took the defensive. When he learned that the Yuan army on the western front was invading south, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Mu Ying to lead the Ming army in Shaanxi, cross the Yellow River, March in haste, raid the Yuan army and capture the enemy alive.

The fifth northern expedition (138 1)- attack again.

Once again, the Yuan Army attacked the Great Wall, with Xu Da as the general, Tang He and Fu Youde as the deputy, and Mu Ying as the pioneer. They marched hundreds of miles north and returned with great victory. From then on, the Yuan Army beyond the Great Wall began guerrilla tactics, and the Ming Army ran when it came.

The Sixth Northern Expedition (1387)-Recovering Liaodong

In the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Qiu Naha started his career and occupied the Northeast with more than 100,000 soldiers. Zhu Yuanzhang took Shengfeng as the general, Fu Youde and Aquamarine as the deputy, and headed for the northeast. After the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains army moved into Liaodong again, established Liaodong headquarters, and initially completed the strategy of encircling the North Yuan from the East Road.

The Seventh Northern Expedition (1388)-Glory of the Empire

With the final victory over Yu Wei, Zhu Yuanzhang took aquamarine as the general, Guo Ying and Tang Shengzong as the deputy, and set out for the Northern Expedition, all the way to panic in the court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty with Yu Tonghai, which dealt a fatal blow to the regime of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. From then on, there was no Wang Ting in the desert, and Beiyuan returned to a state of disintegration.

The Eighth Northern Expedition (1390)-Plowing and sweeping holes

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu? Judy, the prince of Yan, as the general, supplemented by Fu Youde, divided his forces to encircle the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in two ways, and returned with great victory.

The Ninth Northern Expedition (1396)—— Inheritance of Famous Soldiers

Zhu Yuanzhang sent Judy, the prince of Yan, to the northern expedition, which also won a great victory. But its significance lies in the fact that Judy, the prince of Yan, has grown into a new pillar in the northern territory of the empire under the circumstances that all the famous soldiers of Hongwu Dynasty have died one after another.

In the end, after basically eliminating the resistance of the Northern Yuan forces, Zhu Yuanzhang, the iron-blooded emperor, finally finished his life, leaving only the words "I was originally dressed in cloth, and the world was nothing to me". A few years later, his son Judy took over the burden of his father and once again pushed the Ming Empire to the peak of glory!
