The Twenty-Four Generals of Huaxi in the Great Ming

The Ming Dynasty was the last Han Chinese dynasty in ancient China, and also the last dynasty known for its steadfast spirit. The Twenty-Four Generals of Huai Xi, also known as the Twenty-Four Generals of Huai Xi in the Early Ming, were the twenty-four men Zhu Yuanzhang took with him when he left Haozhou for Dingyuan on the first day of the first lunar month in the fourteenth year of the Zhizheng era. They all played important roles in Zhu Yuanzhang's uprising and in the founding of the Great Ming Dynasty.
