Zhu Yuanzhang s success and Chen Youliang s defeat

Mondo History Updated on 2024-01-28

Zhu Yuanzhang rebelled at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and finally became the boss of the rebel army, which was by no means something that could be completed overnight, and it was not just what Zhang Shicheng said"Heaven shines upon thee, but not upon me"It's so simple, you can actually get a glimpse or two from the duel between him and Chen Youliang.

Chen Youliang can be said to be a very backbone hero, and he has quite a political and military talent, but he lacks some human touch, and the most important thing in leading the rebel army - righteousness, which can actually be known from his family history.

Chen Youliang was originally a small fisherman, and it belongs to the lowest level, in order to change his fate, Chen Youliang studied hard, and finally got a petty official in the government, it is said that he is a courtier of the Yuan Dynasty who is rooted in Miaohong, and his status is equivalent to the current civil servant or career editor, but he still took refuge in the rebel Xu Shouhui at that time without hesitation, so as to start his brilliant and murderous life, and also became the main opponent of Zhu Yuanzhang in the later period.

Chen Youliang began to have ambitions after taking refuge in Xu Shouhui, and in order to realize his ambitions, Chen Youliang exposed the biggest weakness in his character, arrogance and unrighteousness.

Before Chen Youliang became Zhu Yuanzhang's biggest enemy, he first killed Ni Wenjun, who appreciated him, and then killed Zhao Pusheng, who treated him like his own brother, and finally got rid of his former master, Xu Shouhui, who no longer posed much threat to him. And he swaggered so much to show off his bravery and boldness.

Although his ideas are in line with his own internal logic, from the perspective of outsiders, especially those who follow him from birth to death, this is a proper and unbiased righteousness, and China has advocated benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith since ancient times, and Chen Youliang directly lost miserably in the hearts of the people.

But Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang are completely two kinds of people, Zhu Yuanzhang is modest and cautious, and he is also as long as Chen Youliang, so in the later duel with Chen Youliang, he can succeed in the duel that neither occupies the time nor the place.

At that time, as each other's most disdainful opponents, the final showdown between Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang finally arrived, because they were located in the south, and the decisive battle between the two sides was chosen at Poyang Lake. Chen Youliang's military strength was strong, and there were many huge ships that could be said to be ancient aircraft carriers, while Zhu Yuanzhang only had a few small fishing boats, and some of Chen Youliang's warships that had been eliminated captured in the previous war, and they were directly killed in an instant in the formation.

Despite this, Zhu Yuanzhang finally won, when the two fought the drums, the coaches of both sides shouted, Chen Youliang said death, and Zhu Yuanzhang said life, he said that if there is a surrender to treat him well, Chen Youliang said that if there is a surrender to kill him, Zhu Yuanzhang is playing the right heart. Combined with Zhang Huiming, who did not play a lot in the last battle, he risked his determination to die before the two armies faced each other"People are in Cao Ying, and their hearts are in Han"'s drama made Chen Youliang lose face in front of his army. And Chen Youliang had to follow Cao Cao, who borrowed arrows from a grass boat, at the last moment, and Zhu Yuanzhang became Zhuge Liang when he occupied the sky. In the end, the success or failure is obvious.

When the soldiers were in full swing, when the river was on fire, a cold arrow was shot, Chen Youliang finally died on that day, and finally Zhu Yuanzhang won a big victory, not only became the boss of the rebel army, but also captured countless weapons, inherited the naval team that Chen Youliang worked hard to manage, which can be described as a tiger with wings.

Chen Youliang may not understand why his powerful self was defeated in the end, so he didn't see the textbook-like weeding and eradication that Zhu Yuanzhang staged for him, such as Han Lin'er's death.

Chen Youliang is too unobtrusive to hide his ambitions, and at the same time, the ruthlessness in his character created by his growth environment made Chen Youliang show signs of failure when he faced Zhu Yuanzhang, so he is a hero, but he can't be the ultimate winner of the Hundred Schools of Help.
