Who was the first to say that building a wall and accumulating grain will gradually become king?
Zhu Sheng, a bachelor, first put forward "Build a high wall and accumulate a wide grain, and slowly become king".

Zhu Sheng's three strategies put forward the strategy of building the country strategically. Zhu Yuanzhang was called the King of Wu ten years ago, and it was not until he defeated Chen Youliang that he changed his name to the King of Wu, that is, he adopted Zhu Sheng's suggestion.

"Building a wall high" is a very abstract concept. Of course, it has little to do with the construction of the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty. In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, "building a high wall" means strengthening defense and consolidating the field. Create a strategic situation that can be attacked and defended. Although Huang Chao and Li Zicheng once wore heavy armor and covered the sky with banners, once they lost, they retreated and died. Zhu Yuanzhang avoided this result because he adopted the opinions of Confucian scholars.

Policy advantage

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, political corruption made people miserable. Coupled with years of war, the land is barren, and the registered permanent residence has dropped sharply, which is in urgent need of rest. Therefore, it is urgent to stabilize society and develop production. This "wide accumulation of grain" refers to the development of people's livelihood. During the war years, Zhu Yuanzhang's Confucian ministers constantly instilled moral and political ideas into him, praising the country's fundamental lies in attaching importance to the people, winning the hearts of the people and getting support.
