The military households in the Ming Dynasty were in a miserable situation. What should they do if they want to get rid of the army?

In the Ming dynasty, if a military household wanted to get rid of the army, there were some feasible methods. Here are some possible ways:

1. desertion: this may be the simplest and most direct method, but it takes a lot of determination and perseverance. Military households can try to escape in war or training and then remain anonymous. As long as they can successfully cover up their identity, they may avoid being discovered. But this method may involve family members, so it needs careful consideration.

2. gain fame: this is a more challenging but secure way. Military families can gain fame by studying hard and taking the imperial examinations. Once successful, they can write to the emperor and ask him to adjust their household registration so as to get rid of the army.

However, it should be noted that these methods require great efforts and wisdom, and the possibility of success is not necessarily high. In addition, the policies and systems of the Ming Dynasty may affect and limit the effectiveness of these methods.
