We can't verify it anymore. We have seen this process in historical records. But you can also think about it Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor He wants to deify himself He said that everything I do is guided by the gods. So he made up this story That's entirely possible. Anyway, no matter what Zhu Yuanzhang was a monk at that time He left the temple to join the army He begged the Buddha Let the Buddha give him some instructions Hey, it's entirely possible. So Zhu Yuanzhang made up his mind to join the army. at this time What was it like that day? everybody knows The end of the Yuan Dynasty was a time of chaos. People are living in poverty When ordinary people see this situation, They rose up in resistance So it's already this time. Everywhere is like a pile of dry firewood As long as there is a Mars It can light a prairie fire Oh, but at this moment This Yuan Dynasty His prime minister is called Toto. What does he think? The Yellow River keeps flooding The Yellow River flooded and submerged many crops. Ordinary people can't live. This might also be the time The cause of this confusion Well, let's repair the river. He advocated repairing the Yellow River to control water Many people are against The world is like this now. You gather all these migrant workers together. In case something happens Who can control it? But he is the Prime Minister. He has the right So he sent a minister named Jia Lu Let him preside over this reconciliation. The control of the Yellow River began To control the Yellow River At that time, a large number of migrant workers were needed. So hundreds of thousands of migrant workers were recruited all at once. Came to the Yellow River Water control project started at this time There are two secret religions circulating in the Ming Palace. A Mingjiao Everyone who has read the martial arts novels written by Jin Yong knows There is a Mingjiao who is very remarkable great influence That is a religion that rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty. There is another religion called Maitreya Maitreya Buddha Maitreya This Maitreya It was also a secret folk religion that rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty. These two religions His purpose is very similar Everyone advocates that eating vegetables is the way of Buddha Just eat vegetarian Ma Lai is Buddha Maitreya They all claim that Maitreya Buddha is about to descend to the earth. After Maitreya Buddha came to earth We must change these unfair things in the world At this time It's at this river control construction site. A song like this began to spread This song says Cannibalism Provoking the Yellow River No one knows what it means Although I don't know what it means But you sent me I pass you All the migrant workers who spread the song know this song. What does this ballad mean? It will be revealed soon Because one day The river workers are digging the river. Digging and digging Hit something hard Say what is this? Everyone worked together to dig out the boat. Take a look A stone man This stone man is really just an eye There is a line of words engraved on the back of this stone man. It says "Eat One Eye" Provoking the Yellow River to the world This is incredible. So this is what God meant. It turns out that the folk songs we spread Is this really the case? So one person spread it to ten people Everyone knows it. So what are we going to do now? Since 10 people have had one eye gouged out And there are calls to provoke the Yellow River to oppose such That is one As long as someone is the agent Everyone followed him to start a rebellion At this time name Call his leader Han Shantong Liu Futong What about these people? I took this opportunity It starts in the middle of the palace. Calling for an uprising In fact, these things Where is the will of God? They had prepared this in advance. A stone man was buried in advance Do these in advance Then there was a folk song like this Let everyone know I have the confidence that I can follow them in the future. Isn't this promoting superstition that we are talking about today? Think about it In the past traditional emperor era Which emperor Which ruler does not promote these superstitious things? They myth themselves Say yourself is Son of Heaven God appointed him to manage and rule the people. Hey, the common people are also tit-for-tat. We also overthrow you according to God's will So what about Han Shantong, Liu Futong and others? Start gathering the people Actively preparing for an uprising At that time There is a place called Bailuzhuang by the Yellow River. What about Han Shantong and Liu Futong? More than 3,000 people gathered In this Bailu Manor A ceremony was held to announce the It's called "Killing the White Horse and the Black Ox" Kill the white horse Killed the black bull After offering sacrifice to this deity, Then, lead everyone to gather together It's called uprising. Everybody is very happy Such a big thing So smooth Let the people from all over the world hear about it. All flocked to The team reached tens of thousands of people in a short time. Everyone is happy But at this moment Let down your guard Do you think things are going too smoothly? Yuan Dynasty government They sent people to suppress the peasant uprising. The rest of the farmers were unprepared. People are scattered all over the place Not able to concentrate Not organized either. The government suddenly attacked Han Shantong was killed Han Shantong's son Han Ling'er took advantage of the chaos Escaped Liu Futong led a troop to fight desperately to break out of the encirclement The one who rushed out gathered the congregation again Reorganize then This led to a large-scale peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. These farmers Wrap a red scarf on your head All the peasants in the peasant uprising used the red scarf as their symbol. So this army In our Chinese history A very famous peasant army Red Turban Army so This marked the beginning of the Red Turban Rebellion at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, there were two Red Turban Army One That is what we said after Han Shantong was killed. His sons Han Linger and Liu Futong They led this This team mainly operates in the east So it's called the Eastern Branch The Red Turban Army in the East believed in the Ming Cult. There is another one in the west His leader? Peng Yingyu We call him Monk Peng Everyone, read the martial arts novels. Famous You mean Monk Peng, one of the five great wanderers? In fact, he is not a famous They are another secret religion. Maitreya This Maitreya rebel group Also wrapped in the Red Army's red scarf So it is also called the Red Turban Army They are the Red Scarf Army. Two Red Turban Armies Tens of thousands of farmers participated in it. Suddenly The whole country is full of Red Turban rebels. The rich aroma of Jiugui Liquor reminds you to continue your excitement An unexpected letter Why did he completely overthrow Zhu Yuanzhang? The originally peaceful and tranquil Buddhist life Please pay attention to the program of the play Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty Episode 3 Return to the secular world and join the army The Red Turban Rebellion was like a raging fire Rapidly spread across the country In just one year The seemingly powerful Yuan Empire Dozens of riots occurred. Millions of people joined the uprising At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang Still living a peaceful monk life in Huangjue Temple Considering the reality He had no intention of joining the uprising. However, an unexpected letter But it completely subverted all of this So who wrote the letter to him? What else did the letter say? That's it Everyone said you talked for a long time The world was in chaos at that time. The Red Turban Army What does it have to do with Zhu Yuanzhang? Isn't Zhu Yuanzhang still drawing lots in the temple? Yes, but at that time Zhu Yuanzhang was in this temple Can he still stay? Everybody knows Zhu Yuanzhang traveled all over the world He had been a monk for only a few days. Then he went out to beg for alms. Called Xingjiao Monk The area where he went to beg for alms This is the area where the Mingjiao and Maitreya sects spread. How much did he hear? Now, back to the temple. Although I have a relatively quiet life But think about it, the situation outside is already like this. Of course, I can't stay in the temple. It's still interesting at this time Everyone knows that he had many friends when he was a child. Grew up together Those friends who work with cattle Among them is a man named Tanghe Someone brought him a letter. What about this letter? What are you saying? The letter said that Tang He had joined the rebel army. These years Did a good job in the Rebel Army Now he has become a thousand households. Thousand households A CEO who manages thousands of people I'm doing pretty well. Zhu Yuanzhang was the leader of us kids back then. Now we are doing well. You haven't come to the rebel army yet. To the Rebel Army You must have made great progress. Hey Zhu Yuanzhang saw this letter I feel uneasy, yes. In such a chaotic time There are also letters from my childhood friends. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted I can't stay in this temple any longer. Zhu Yuanzhang received the letter It will be known to others immediately After someone knows He said he got a letter from the rebels. Report him to the court But who is going to report him? He's also cunning. When I met Zhu Yuanzhang He said I don't want to report you. It's someone else He wants to report you. Zhu Yuanzhang felt uneasy No matter who reports it This is all related to rebellion. That's gonna cost you your head. This matter This put a lot of pressure on Zhu Yuanzhang. In fact, to a certain extent It also contributed to Zhu Yuanzhang's later surrender to the rebel army. Zheng Zhang saw that the situation was critical. Friends over there call Someone here wants to tell on me. The world is in chaos, right? I have to find my own way. But he is a monk He is not an ordinary farmer. He is one level higher than others who join the army He has to return to secular life. Thinking about it It's difficult It's not easy to make this decision Let's go to the village There are still my childhood friends in the village. A man named Zhou Dexing is still here. Discuss with Zhou Dexing Tang He wrote me a letter. He is now a thousand households Let me join the army What do you say? Of course Zhou Zexing joined the army It's not time to join the army. Said that joining the army I am a monk in a temple now. I have to change my monk's identity now. Then go to the army Is it okay for me to do this? Brother Zhou En said why not? If you think it's not okay Go back and ask the Buddha See what Buddha says Zhu Yuanzhang thought yes I am a monk. Then I will ask the Buddha in the temple. See what Buddha means. He said goodbye to Zhou Dexing Gone home I've returned to the temple but haven't entered yet. I felt something was wrong from a distance. The temple gates are wide open The thick smoke in this temple Zhu Yuanzhang ran into the temple in two steps. He was stunned when he saw it The temple has been destroyed by fire. The palace has completely collapsed. There's smoke coming out of the pillars. what's up Everybody knows The Mingjiao and Maitreya uprisings in the late Yuan Dynasty They all believe in Maitreya Buddha When the Yuan Dynasty rulers saw that they believed in Maitreya Buddha We have to be on guard against this Maitreya Buddha. Which temple doesn't have Maitreya Buddha? everybody knows Once you enter the temple The first hall is the Maitreya Buddha There is Maitreya Buddha The Yuan Dynasty rulers were taboo Which temple has a Maitreya Buddha Hall? Just tear him down Destroyed the temple Zhu Yuanzhang took a look Today his temple also suffered disaster. Find the abbot's master It's gone, right? Look at your fellow disciples. There's not even a shadow of me. Everyone ran away Zhu Yuanzhang must make up his mind this time There is only one garan hall Because it's far from this palace. Not burned So Zhu Yuanzhang came to the Galan Hall The scene of drawing lots that we just talked about was performed. Since the Buddha also said Go save my brother. Save my brother Zhu Yuanzhang chose to join the army. The results of Zhu Yuanzhang's divination recorded in historical books That's what he said There is no rush to catch the escaped catcher Catch and escape There's no rush for the catcher to stay Will save the murderer instead of visiting To rescue dangerous things Do dangerous things It's okay, this is good. It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang at this time He doesn't care whether it's like this or not He has to find a reason for himself. I'm going to join the army. In this time of chaos Think about it At the end of the Yuan Dynasty In such a chaotic situation A little monk He decided to join the army. Among the vast crowd of sentient beings Does anyone know about this? Who would notice such a thing? No one will know What's so great about this? But we want This is it Rewriting Chinese history today We all know Zhu Yuanzhang The moment he decided to invest China's history has been rewritten So I often think about Zhu Yuanzhang is what we know Successful people in history His starting point is the lowest We have many young people today. Think that it is not easy for me I can't find a job after graduating from university I came to the city from the countryside to work It's difficult But have you ever thought about it? Is your starting point as low as Zhu Yuanzhang's? Your starting point must be higher than Zhu Yuanzhang's. Zhu Yuanzhang: A young monk joins the army Rewriting Chinese history Young friends said I can't rewrite Chinese history right You may not be able to rewrite Chinese history But think about Zhu Yuanzhang The things he did If you start from this moment I think you can at least rewrite your own history Zhu Yuanzhang joined the army His success taught us a profound lesson. Let us know that everything has a starting point Even if this starting point is low Start from this step The rich aroma of Jiugui Liquor reminds you to continue your excitement Zhu Yuanzhang just entered the military camp Why was he considered a spy? Almost killed How did he escape death? Please stay tuned for the series Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, returns to the secular world and joins the army Zhu Yuanzhang was left with nowhere to go Forced to do something Prepare to join the Red Turban Army However, the Qi army surged in various places countless Where to join the army? It's hard This little monk who just said goodbye to the ancient Buddha What was even more unexpected to him was When Zhu Yuanzhang entered the military camp I was almost killed as a spy. Then Zhu Yuanzhang's military career What kind of danger did you encounter? How did he escape death? He decided to join the army. Where to join the army The nearest army to him In Haozhou It is today's Fengyang There is an army stationed in Fengyang There is a marshal in this army The leader? Guo Zixing This is Guo Zixing It is from Caozhou, Shandong Ancestral origin But I ran to Fengyang, Anhui. why Because Guo Ziqing's father is a fortune teller Make a living by fortune telling So he went around telling fortunes for people Fortune telling Came to Fengyang This is Fengyang. There is a wealthy family rich This wealthy family has a daughter A blind daughter blind So I'm already older. Still can't find the object No one wants to marry her. Guo Zixing's father said Then I am willing It's better than wandering around. So he married into this family. Married the daughter of this family Gave birth to three children The second child is Guo Zixin This family is very rich. But during the Yuan Dynasty We have talked about People are divided into levels The Mongols and the Semites are nobles. Han men are bullied You are an ordinary Han Chinese landlord. No social status Often bullied by the government By the end of the Yuan Dynasty When the world is in chaos He thought, I don't want to suffer this humiliation. With several thousand men, they invaded this state. Listen to the command of the leader of the Red Turban Army He also became a part of the Red Turban Army So in Haozhou Battlefield King Stationed down This mill state This place It was the Ming Cult at that time. Maitreya is a secret religion The most common place to spread this So there were many believers at that time. It's easy to organize an army This way, Hangzhou was occupied Zhu Yuanzhang is going He is closest to Haozhou So he's going to join the army. The best way is to go to Haozhou And his childhood friend Tang He In this army Zhu Yuanzhang thought That's very suitable. He went to steal the army. This year is the 12th year of the Yuan Shun Emperor's Zhizheng reign That is 1352 AD Zhu Yuanzhang 25 years old On the first day of the third month of this spring The 25-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a tattered monk's robe. Arrived at the foot of Haozhou City It's legendary What is the situation in Haozhou at this time? The rebels in Haozhou City Outside the city are the Yuan Dynasty troops They are in a standoff The Yuan army did not dare to attack the city The rebels did not dare to come out to fight Zhu Yuanzhang arrived at the city of Haozhou The defenders of Haozhou City are very alert. It would be fine if an ordinary farmer came A monk came Wearing a tattered robe Yeah, what is this for? Is he a spy? Maybe someone sent him? The spy was stopped at that time Check as soon as you come up The inspection was very careful What made Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy? I came to join the army with good intentions. Here you treat me as a spy and interrogate me A few words don't work Then they started quarreling It doesn't matter if it's noisy. These people are even more angry How dare you argue with us? He immediately tied up Zhu Yuanzhang. Send someone to report to the leader immediately Right? We need to kill this spy. Someone went to report the situation to Guo Zixing. Guo Zixing has a characteristic He is loyal. Like to make friends with good guys He thought that since he came to me You suspect he is a spy? We have to see If he wasn't a spy A good man Aren't we wrongly accusing them? So he came in person Come to this place and see Zhu Yuanzhang Good looks Not like an ordinary person Although wearing a torn robe Tied up But majestic Tall There is light between the eyebrows Gu Zi looked at This is a character. Come up and ask When I asked, it turned out that Tang He wrote a letter asking He came to say There are many brothers in the rebel army They are all good friends with him. This is definitely not a spy. This is the real one who came to rely on us Send it quickly. Take it quickly. So from now on When I joined the army, I became a soldier in the rebel army. Zhu Yuanzhang's first step From monks to rebels He was an ordinary soldier. In today's terms, he is called a private. The most basic fighter But this most basic soldier is not simple why He has ambition He has his own ambitions and abilities What does the history book say? Early morning of March 1, leap year Taizu Arrives at Haocheng The guard does not notice the ears Someone wants to kill it and feels that abalone has been guarding Xiong for a long time Exempt income Noon Revenue Department 5 Became a tribesman If no one reports it No one knows that he is not a spy. Take him down He was really beheaded. He was killed as a spy there. This section is called "The Little Monk's Bloodstained Haozhou City" The Ming Dynasty will no longer exist. How interesting is this history? But Zhu Yuanzhang stayed in the army Start with a tribe The rich aroma of Jiugui Liquor reminds you to continue your excitement A man who had just joined the army The unknown recruit How did he become the son-in-law of the rebel marshal? Please stay tuned for the series Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty Episode 4 A husband is honored by his wife A young man who is not very experienced in the world A former Buddhist disciple Now he is a soldier in the rebel army. Almost no one will believe it Zhu Yuanzhang was able to adapt to such changes quickly However, in just two months Zhu Yuanzhang became the Marshal A personal soldier of Guo Zixing So what talents did Zhu Yuanzhang have? Why did Guo Zixing favor him so much? When Zhu Yuanzhang recalled this period of his life He also said He said he joined the army Accepted into the tribe Two months into the military service Except for personal soldiers Loyalty and Confucianism Two months after he joined the army No more tribes He was recruited as a personal soldier what does it mean After Zhu Yuanzhang joined the army Two months soon He started as an ordinary private He became a monitor similar to what we call a squad leader today. Such an identity This is also very interesting. Some books say How many days did he join the army? Nine Hands Promoted him to a captain of nine A small cadre in charge of nine people Right? Zhu Yuanzhang himself didn't mention this matter. why Because actually No matter if he is the ninth minister Or just an ordinary soldier. He's a soldier anyway. He's not an officer. Right? It's the difference between taking care of nine people and not taking care of nine people. That doesn't make much difference. But Zhu Yuanzhang Why was he promoted so quickly? There is such a little story Say one day Guo Zixing came to inspect the troops. One When it came to the army where Zhu Yuanzhang was Everyone saw the Marshal coming. Immediately give the order All stood up Stand at attention to greet Zhu Yuanzhang is tall Guo Ziqing saw it at a glance The first one is This is what happened at the city gate that day. The young man you saw Said it was him What do you say? The captain will report immediately. This guy is incredible. People are capable and smart Good for friends, right? You're being loyal, right? He talked about many of his advantages. When Guo Zixing heard this I didn't see the wrong person. I saved this person that day. He's a talented person. good Transfer him away Transferred to the Marshal's Office Come with me and be a soldier This is how Zhu Yuanzhang was transferred Everyone wants Zhu Yuanzhang had only been a soldier for a few days. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang himself said two months Two months He has changed Why did he change? I think there are a few points The first point Zhu Yuanzhang has his own ideas He has been a kid since he was young. Play with friends Everybody supports him. He is the master of everything Besides, after he became a monk He went out to beg for alms He has insight. He is planting crops in the fields like that. Then I joined the army It's different Seen One more thing He has culture He read private books when he was young. At this time, he can understand the orders from his superiors. The soldiers have to write letters to their families. He can carry a pen. No one else can do that. What about the last point? It was Zhu Yuanzhang who dared to take responsibility You see when he was the leader of the children He led everyone to eat the landlord's cattle After eating the cow Take responsibility He dares to take He stuck the cow's tail into the crevice of the mountain. You said the cow went into the mountain, right? He was the one who got beaten But everyone benefits This is a kind of loyalty. At the person's house, right? He will easily gain everyone's recognition and support Just a few of these are enough. So Zhu Yuanzhang was promoted very quickly. Others don't progress as fast as he does. In this way Zhu Yuanzhang became a personal soldier So we say that in history many things Of course, all successful people He must have these two most basic conditions One is one's own talent, ability and hard work. Another one is opportunity. Zhu Yuanzhang firmly grasped the opportunity And with such talent and effort So he succeeded So actually Zhu Yuanzhang's experience has implications for each of us It should be said that they are all inspiring. Educated He relied on this These are things that everyone can do He concentrated all these advantages on himself. His original intention So Zhu Yuanzhang was in the army. Growing fast At this time Everyone thinks there is one thing It was Zhu Yuanzhang. He is a monk in the temple He has no name He only has a French name Monks all have Buddhist names. But it's an interesting thing. I put a lot of effort into it I want to know what his name was at that time. Not found Not found I don't know if Zhu Yuanzhang is in the temple. What was his Dharma name at that time? But we know Since he joined the army He has to have a name It was then that he had his own real name. Name Zhu Yuanzhang Zhu Yuanzhang got his name after he joined the army. Zhu Yuanzhang Just by your own efforts Because I'm in the army One battle after another Carry out tasks one by one Relationships with companions He went from being an ordinary soldier to a personal soldier. Then from the personal soldiers? He was gradually valued by his leader. Guo Zixing felt that I had such a person by my side It's incredible This is a capable person. whats the matter When Zhu Yuanzhang arrived This will all go smoothly for you. Where can you find such a person? Guo Zijing thought about it I can't lose this talent. I'm going to lose this talent. I'm so sorry. Because we are in Haozhou City at this time. He is not just Guo Zixing He has others. Who is his equal? If he could get Zhu Yuanzhang He got a good helper. But how can we keep Zhu Yuanzhang? Let him follow me wholeheartedly Become my most capable assistant There will be no more changes I won't lose this talent again. Guo Zexing was troubled He wondered how I could keep such a talented person. Why He came up with a good idea What can we do? Let’s talk about it next time
