During the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang was caught in a dilemma. In the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang was surrounded, starving, cold and in danger. At the moment of life and death, Zhu Yuanzhang was helped by his fellow villagers from Jiangxi province. When Zhu Yuanzhang said goodbye to the villagers, he repeatedly urged them: ?

In 1368? Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor. All the people under his command came to the capital to pay homage and celebrate with him. When he saw so many people pouring into the capital at once, not only was it difficult to accommodate them, but it was also difficult for him to cope with them.
