What did Zhu Yuanzhang do in history and what did he leave for future generations?

In 3 1 year! From the establishment of the Ming Dynasty in 1368 to his death in 1398, the greatest achievement was to get social life back on track! Ended the turbulent life of the people! 3 1 year of his reign. It laid a good foundation for the later emperor!

First of all, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born at the bottom of society, is undoubtedly a great man in the history of China. As we all know, as the founder of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was just a cowherd and a young monk who had to wander for three years in order to survive. But it was this once penniless refugee who went to the peasant uprising army at the age of 24 and became a soldier. Only after 17 years of legendary struggle and expedition, he actually ascended the throne of the founding emperor!

However, the evaluation of Guan Zhu Yuanzhang has always been mixed, so that until today, this kind of concentrated dedication to his admiration, praise and spit can still set off a stormy debate on the Internet-if it is properly stimulated. However, no matter how you look at it, with his legendary and brilliant military resume and ruling career, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously has sufficient reasons to be elected as one of the three greatest politicians and strategists in China feudal society. Maybe even the first place.

Negative remarks about Zhu Yuanzhang, such as killing heroes and so-called literary inquisition, are beyond the scope of this article. Here I will try to summarize the five historical achievements of this rare person in history to prove that Zhu Yuanzhang's greatness is not a lie.

Advantage one:

After years of arduous campaigns, they tied the pack, ended Mongolian rule, unified the whole country, established a brand-new and powerful country, and restored the long-lost regime of the Han nationality in the traditional territory of China.

Feeling statement:

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was political corruption, chaos in the world, and insurgents surged everywhere. Shortly after joining the Red Scarf Army, Zhu Yuanzhang was appreciated for his bravery and intelligence, and worked hard. He finally grew from an ordinary soldier to the commander-in-chief of a powerful force, and then led the army to destroy several powerful separatist regimes around him. Then he went to the Northern Expedition of Mengyuan, and he quickly recovered the capital of the Yuan Dynasty (that is, today's Beijing). Later, after several crusades, Zhu Yuanzhang finally unified the whole country and established the Great Ming Dynasty.

In the history of China, whenever there are troubled times, it is the time for the Central Plains to compete for the world, but at the end of each melee, it is bound to fall back to the situation that each family dominates the world. And this final winner usually always has a reason to win. Liu Futong, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang and Fang Guozhen were all teachers of justice of corrupt rulers in Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties. But if we compare the peasant armies with each other, I'm afraid there is no distinction between good and evil-each family is trying to overthrow the rule of the Yuan Dynasty and establish its own Han regime, isn't it? So Zhu Yuanzhang's final victory is beyond reproach. He didn't inherit or steal, but won the world for which anyone could fight by his honest struggle. In fact, among the founding emperors of past dynasties, Zhu Yuanzhang's success in governing the country is unmatched by few opponents.

Why did Zhu Yuanzhang finally complete the mission of unifying the whole country, ending the war and restoring the Han regime on behalf of heroes and people? Is this a historical accident or necessity? I think, although this is the favor of fate and heaven to Zhu Yuanzhang, it is also the ultimate victory of Zhu Yuanzhang's own comprehensive advantages such as intelligence, strength and virtue. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang's army is disciplined and won the hearts of the people. For example, the soldiers in his unit are all new, and the overall combat effectiveness is very strong, especially in fighting evil battles and hard battles; Another example is Zhu Yuanzhang's strategic vision. His decisions are always correct, and his participation and dedication are gathered in Athens. ...

Advantage 2:

Restoring and even greatly enhancing the national status and self-confidence of the Han nationality (including many other oppressed nationalities and descendants of the Chinese people), and restoring and carrying forward the excellent Chinese traditional culture that has been greatly weakened.

Feeling statement:

When the Yuan Dynasty ruled China, the Mongols practiced various racial discrimination policies against the Han nationality. For example, first, divide the people into four classes, with the Han nationality as the lowest class; Second, you have to pay for killing Mongols, and you have to pay the price of a donkey for killing Han people. Third, the right of the new daughter-in-law married by the Han people to go out at night must be given to the Mongolian warden; Fourth, Han people can't own weapons, even kitchen knives can only be shared by several families, and Chang Bao is responsible for keeping kitchen knives; Fifth, the Han people pay heavy taxes and live in poverty all the year round. Once they encounter famine, their lives will be difficult to guarantee. Fifth, ordinary Han people without public office are not allowed to take names, only in the name of date of birth (so Zhu Yuanzhang was originally called Zhu Chongba, and Zhu Yuanzhang, like Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Tanghe, was taken by joining the Red Scarf Army). ...

It was after Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty that all ethnic groups with the Han nationality as the main body were able to cancel all kinds of backward and cruel racial discrimination policies of the previous dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang did not retaliate against the Mongols, but implemented the policy of equality and mutual respect among all ethnic groups, which made China become rich and strong again on the basis of national reconciliation.

In the history of more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, this distinctive feature of the Han people can only be seen in successive dynasties. The powerful fighting capacity of the Ming army, including the navy, in many major foreign wars is also superior to other dynasties in general-this is actually a concentrated expression of the extremely strong national self-confidence established by the Han people after they resumed their position in Zhengshuo.

As for Zhu Yuanzhang's restoration and development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, it is actually integrated and infiltrated in his whole military activities and administration process, such as Zhu Yuanzhang's great attention and popularization of rural basic education, such as his study, admiration and application of ancient cultural classics, and so on. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang named his descendants. Zhu Yuanzhang used words to name his sons, such as Prince Zhu Biao, Prince Judy, Zhu Quanwang, etc ... The name of this generation has the word "wood" beside it; Judy's three sons were named "Zhu" and "Zhu" according to Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning ... gold, wood, water, fire, earth and yin and yang.
