Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a farmer. How did he win the world?

One of the reasons for Zhu Yuanzhang's success is that he can use people. Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen, Song Lian, Lv Chang, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were all talented people at that time, and some were officials of the Yuan Dynasty, but Zhu Yuanzhang knew how to win people's hearts and let them be used by him.

Secondly, Zhu Yuanzhang was not uneducated, but had no formal education. He learned it from a monk when he became a monk. After the uprising, Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen, Song Lian and Lu Chang all taught him. Most importantly, what he studied was not rigid culture, but useful things, such as war, geography and imperial psychology. Otherwise, Daming would not have been established, established a unique system, and wrote a genealogy for our descendants. If there is no culture, how to write?

The third is his previous experience, knowing what the people want and what the people need, which is the basis of his success. Fourth, it is the times. The so-called times make heroes. If it is a smooth sailing day, maybe Zhu Yuanzhang, like his father and ancestors, has been a tenant all his life and his name may be gone. It was because of the unpopularity of the Yuan Dynasty that the Han people rose up and gave him the opportunity to become famous in the world in 276 years. Of course, he must have a brilliant ability, otherwise he would have been eaten by other insurgents. You know, neither Chen Youliang nor Zhang Shicheng. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang is literate and his professional knowledge is first-class. I just didn't receive formal education and took the imperial examination.

Judging from historical data, Zhu Yuanzhang is most praised for these two points. First of all, he can accept instruction modestly. Before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, he was more polite to his subordinates. He made great use of Liu Bowen and gathered a group of brave generals. Whenever these talented people put forward reasonable suggestions, they can analyze them carefully and adopt them humbly. For example, after Zhu Yuanzhang led the army to capture Huizhou, Li Shanchang presented his strategy: building high walls and accumulating grain. In just nine words, Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his strong desire to be king. Command the army to produce by itself, build water conservancy projects and reduce the burden on farmers, so as to make the army strong and have sufficient food, and the people under its jurisdiction can recuperate and live and work in peace and contentment.
