The relationship between Xu Da and Chang Yuchun?

Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were both generals under Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor. They are brave and fearless. They have made a lot of contributions together, but they are completely different in treating people.

Once, the two defeated the enemy at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain and captured more than 3,000 people. Chang Yuchun said, "These enemies are very powerful. If you don't kill them, you may become a future trouble. " Xu Da disagreed and told Zhu Yuanzhang about it. Chang Yuchun first buried 1000 people alive in the dark. The next day, Xu Da was pardoned by Zhu Yuanzhang and immediately released all the remaining prisoners.

When the Pingjiang River was about to be breached, Xu Da said to Chang Yuchun, "When the troops entered the city, my team was on the left and your team was on the right." It is also agreed: "Those who rob the people will be put to death, those who burn houses will be put to death, and those who leave the military camp for 20 miles will be put to death." After entering Pingjiang City, the people were not disturbed.

They conquered Tongzhou and stayed in Xu Da outside the city for a whole day before they began to attack the city. Yuan Shundi escaped. Chang Yuchun was very angry and thought he had lost a great achievement. Xu Da said: "Although this emperor is nothing now, he has been in power for many days. How can our master seal him? " Do you want to give him a piece of land? Since it is not suitable, let him escape. "Chang Yuchun unwilling, to chase, but didn't catch up.

Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were crowned kings, and Xu Da's descendants continued to glory, while Chang Yuchun not only died young, but also his descendants declined. Therefore, "Ming Shi" lamented that "it is not only the interests of the country, but also the future generations are really blessed."
