Why is Li Jinglong called Zhu Di? Why does Zhu Di look down on Li Jinglong?

In 1398 AD, the rebellion broke out at the end of the Wei Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who established the Ming Dynasty, died. Due to the premature death of the prince, Zhu Yuanzhang passed the throne to his grandson Zhu Yun_, who later became his emperor.

Emperor Wenjian was a very miserable emperor. After four years as emperor, he was overthrown by his uncle, and his life and death are unknown. This alternation of power in the early Ming Dynasty originated from Wen and Jian's separatist policy.

After the great emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty founded the country and proclaimed himself emperor, he was awarded the title of hero, and all the princes and grandchildren had their own titles. Like most princes in history, these princes were local emperors among their own princes. After Wen Jian came to power, he felt that central power was threatened by local power. In order to consolidate the centralization of power, he had the idea of ????separating the princes.

There is nothing wrong with this idea, the problem is that the timing is wrong. He reigned for a short time and his position was unstable, but the local princes were extremely powerful. He was ruthless and did not pay attention to twists and turns. The final result was that his throne was overthrown by Zhu Di.

Anyone doubt it? Emperor Wenjian is indeed young, but the central government is the central government. Why can't he defeat the Yanbei army? In fact, at the beginning of the Jingnan War, the central government was indeed stronger than Zhu Di. In the end, a large part of the failure was due to the general. This general is Li Jinglong, the son of the founding general Li Wenzhong.

Li Wenzhong, the nephew of Zhu Yuanzhang, ranked third among the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty. It is conceivable that he made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty. For such a powerful general, like father, like son, he gave birth to Li Jinglong, which was the biggest failure of the Central Army in the Battle of Jingnan.

Li Jinglong can be said to be the person who caused the reversal of the offensive and defensive situation of the Central Army and the Yan Army in the entire Jingnan Campaign. Even because of his various failures, future generations often joke that he is the strongest insider Zhu Di placed next to him.

Although this is a joke, jokes don't appear out of thin air. How much does Li Jinglong look like an insider? This article will briefly explain it to you.

At the beginning of the war, he appointed veteran Geng Bingwen. Later, Geng Bingwen adopted Li Jinglong at the suggestion of his teacher Huang Zicheng. Emperor Wenjian had high hopes for Zhou Sinong's performance art, otherwise he wouldn't have done anything. When Li Jinglong started his career, I didn't give him the right to act cheaply.

He had high hopes for Li Jinglong, but when Zhu Di heard that the commander-in-chief had been replaced by Li Jinglong, he happily set off firecrackers to celebrate. Why? Because Li Jinglong is not his opponent. Zhu Di believed that Li Jinglong was headstrong, did not trust his generals, and was greedy for merit, so he was not a commander-in-chief. Later facts also proved Zhu Di's correctness.

Li Jinglong led an army of 500,000 in the Northern Expedition, sweeping across Peiping. Zhu Yuanzhang led his army to attack Yongping and Daning, and only the prince Zhu Gaochi stayed in Peiping. This was Zhu Di's best chance to win the base camp, but it was ruined by Li Jinglong in the end.

The governor at that time, Qu Neng, was about to break through the gate of Zhangye. But Li Jinglong was afraid that Qu would take his great achievements for himself, so he ordered Qu to retreat. Qu Neng had to obey the order, but Li Jinglong had to keep occupying Peiping. Instead, he waited for Zhu Dili to rescue him.

Li Jinglong and Chiang Kai-shek's hope of seizing Peking was shattered, and the two sides fought again at Zhengcunba. Li Jinglong's 500,000 American army was defeated by Zhu Di and fled in a panic, even giving up supplies.

Later, the Central Army assembled a 600,000-strong army, still commanded by Li Jinglong, and joined forces with the Yan Army at Baigou River. The Central Army was defeated again by the Yan Army and fled in panic. Under the leadership of Li Jinglong, hundreds of thousands of troops fell into the hands of the Yan army one after another, which eventually led to a reversal of the offensive and defensive situation. The Central Army may not be able to obtain enough troops to organize a large-scale crusade, so it can only persist.

Do you think Li Jinglong only brought a few big defeats? Being so lonely, I really feel sorry for his title of the strongest insider. In 1402 AD, Zhu Di led his army across the Yangtze River

The strange thing is that after Li Jinglong made a big mistake, the officials persuaded him to change his generals and blamed Li Jinglong. But he didn't listen to him at all, insisted on his own opinion, and always trusted Li Jinglong. In the end, the Jinchuan Gate was opened by Li Jinglong and he lost the throne.

Although Li Jinglong was extremely powerful in the early years of Yongle, he was impeached by officials in the second year of Yongle, and was finally placed under house arrest by Zhu Di. He died in the last years of Yongle.
