After that, he separated from his family and escaped. He went to Huangjue Temple to become a monk. Two years later, due to the local famine, Huangjue Temple could not be maintained, and he was sent out to find a way out. At the age of 24, Zhu Yuanzhang joined the army alone and was appointed as a bodyguard by Commander Guo Zixing because of his knowledge. After that, he recruited soldiers to fight and constantly expanded his forces. For example, in 1353, he recruited 700 soldiers and took a series of military actions such as conquering the south. After Guo Zixing passed away, he became the actual controller of Guo Jun, and later recruited the Chaohu Navy to conquer many places.

He carried out the eight-part policy of recruiting scholars, migrating and making the people rich, implemented the Lijia system, compiled the Yellow Book of Taxes and Servitude and the Fish Scale Atlas, attached importance to production, promoted the military and civilian village system, and established the "Kaizhong" system. These measures contributed to the unification of the early Ming Dynasty and the recovery and development of the social economy, creating the "Hongwu Rule". However, he ruled the country strictly and created the "Hu Weiyong Case","Guo Huan Case","Blue Jade Case" and other major cases of Hongwu, causing many major prisons.
