Was Genghis Khan a national hero or a sinner of history?

Last time we talked about Temujin, the later Genghis Khan was preparing to go to a banquet, and it happened to be in the middle of the night when he was stopped. It is estimated that Temujin also thought that it was a roadblock, but he did not think that it was not, but came to inform. The visitor, named Monlik, left Temujin in his tent and told him, "Wang Han's father and son are suspicious, please thank him for his horse fatigue." "In fact, Sang Kun is really a fake marriage this time, a real Hongmen banquet." Temujin felt that what Monlik had said was reasonable, and stayed in his tent, so he sent his two horses to Gonzao and Begtai to Sankun, saying that it was too far away, and the horse could not eat, so he did not go.

This matter is actually problematic, because the reason why Temujin did not go is very far-fetched, we all know that Mongolian horses are particularly capable of running, plus the wedding wine is not necessarily required to stipulate the time, Sangkun can say, it doesn't matter, the next time you change the horse, will you come again? Plus how did this Monlik know that Wang Han's father and son had this conspiracy, if it was guessed, Temujin could not guess it? Therefore, I think that this historical record was added by later generations, not the original form of history.

Moreover, Sangkun was unable to make a plan, so he prepared to send an army to sneak up on Temujin. As a result, one of his horse breeders, called Beggar Lik, came to inform him with his younger brother Ba Gang. Every time Temujin was so coincidental, every time he was attacked and attacked, someone sent news from the enemy camp, if in history Temujin had not particularly won the hearts of the Mongols at this time, then I am afraid that these can only be used as history books to promote the legitimacy of the later Genghis Khan. However, if this is made up, the content is indeed reasonable, the horse breeder itself does not have much loyalty to speak of, and the probability of knowing the sneak attack plan is very high.

Temujin moved his army behind Mount Ouwenduer and asked him to cut off his rear and sentinel the enemy. Because the front of the mountain was a red forest, after Wang Han's army came, it was hidden in the mountain forest, so the patrol did not know at all. The general Alchi's subordinates, Tai Chi Ji And Ya'er, happened to be herding their horses and found the enemy troops hiding in the mountains and forests, so they quickly reported temujin. Temujin hastily imposed martial law, and sent the general of the Wute Department, Qiu Da'er, and the general of the Wulut Department Shu Chitai as the forward, and the battle was fought at Zhixi, and Shu Chitai shot an arrow at Sangkun and shot him in the cheek, Wang Han saw that his son was hit by an arrow, so he retreated. However, Temujin was outnumbered, and he died of his wounds the next day. It was also on this day that Temujin's son Wokoutai arrived, and the generals Bor Shu and Bor suddenly arrived.

When the people of the time were scattered, the emperor led the people to the Barezina River, and swore to drink water: "The other day is the same as the bitterness, and if I fail the covenant, let me dry up like the water of the river." "Drink it all, with a cup with the servant." The slave also swore to die without ambition. Later, he called the courtiers Baalzhu Nat, and extended the reward to his descendants. Then the multitude was gradually gathered, and 4,600 men were divided into two armies. The emperor's army, busy with the Wuts and Uluvians, followed the banks of the Helkha River and reached the pastoral land of Hongjira Bebu Tierge Argyle. The Emperor's envoy, Shu Chitai, told him, "I am a master of the essence, and if I am from me, I will not lose my old good." Otherwise, we will meet each other as soldiers. So Therg argyle came down. The emperor was stationed at Dong Que Nao'er and The Thalha River. It is a lush grass that can rest soldiers. The senders of the A'er Sea informed Wang Han and the Altar of Al- and the Kucha'er, tujue, etc., and elaborated on the "Biography of Wang Han". After the emperor sent envoys, he relocated to Balezhuna, and could be protected by his land dangers. The Sahayi and Huzhen tribes descended.

In the autumn, When Temujin sent Hesal to surrender, Wang Han believed it and was not defensive at all, so when Temujin came, he should cooperate inside and outside, Wang Han was defeated by Checher Wendur, Temujin "captured his people", Wang Han's father and son were killed by the rebels on the way to escape, and Ke Lie was also killed. "When the kings and kings descended, the duhariba rode away dozens of horses, not knowing the end."

After the fall of Wang Han, in fact, only zamuhe, the brother of Tiemuzhen, was left as an enemy, and as long as he was destroyed, the heavy task of unifying the Mongol tribes and unifying the steppe would be completed.

In fact, Temujin is indeed actively preparing for the battle, preparing to fight with Zamu to the death. This time, they are playing for their lives, and this is a contest between you and me.

However, at this time, there was a person who began to fear Temujin out of self-preservation, and this person was a famous and powerful man who was full of grasslands and powerful--Naimanbe Sun Khan.

Was Genghis Khan a national hero or a sinner of history?

The Sun Khan was jealous of Temujin's prestige and sent emissaries to invite the minister of Wanggu, Jin kuri of Arakusi, to attack Temujin together. However, Ah Rakushi's Jin Kuri did not dare to offend Temujin, betrayed the Sun Khan, and surrendered himself by the way.

In the spring of the year of Koshi (1204), Temujin led an army to hunt at the Thesshin River, and discussed attacking the Naimanbu and "garrisoning the Khalha River to build Mt. Thiga". Announce the appointment of Zasak (consul) and let him order everyone. "Set up a thousand households, a hundred households, and a brand head, and set up a sixth-class raking official." Eighty guards were chosen, seventy were scattered, and A'er was ordered to choose a thousand guards, and the enemy was the forward. ”

In The summer of April, he sent Hisa to attack the Naimanbu. The other side did not move, there was no way, only to withdraw. In the autumn, he also sent Kuriki and Tetsubetsu to attack Sun Khan as a forward.

When the sun was scarce to hanghai mountain, the Hal only Wusun River, and the various departments of Dor Ben, Tatar, Hedajin, and Sa'er Shute, as well as the contemptuous beggar chieftain Tohetoa, Kelie yi chieftain Na Lin Dashi, Werat chief Kudu Habeg, Zakula chief Zamuhe and other companies advanced, and fought in the land of Naku Dongya Cha'er Beggar Horse Wuti. The emperor came to the front of the enemy, commanded the generals to break the barbarian soldiers, capture the sun, kill it, the barbarian general firepower is rare, the eight red and other frontal forces, the emperor wants to surrender, do not obey, all are killed. Emperor Ji sighed for a long time, and said, "Let all my generals be like this, and I will not worry about it." "On that day, the ministries of Dorben, Tatar, Hattajin, and Serzhute all descended, Zamuhe and Toheitoa fled, and the Sun Hanzi Guluke ran to Buyiluhei. The southern part of naiman died. In winter, then cut down the beggars and go to the Tar River. His other chieftains brought their sons and grandchildren to offer their daughters, and then rebelled and went to Toheitoa to run to Buyiluhei. He took his children and grandchildren to Huluhaqab and built a fortress to defend himself. Shu Bo'er and Shen Bo led the right wing troops to seek peace.

In the spring of the year 1205, the troops commanded by Bu Yilu Hei were attacked, and the northern part of Naiman was destroyed. On the pretext that Western Xia had taken in the enemy Sangkun, Temujin "besieged the city of Jili and attacked the city of Gusa in the beggar neighborhood", conquered them, and plundered them back. In this year, Zamuhe went to Tangnuling, and the house slave felt that he had suffered with him, so he tied up Zamuhe to surrender to Temujin, who executed all six people on the grounds that the five house slaves were unfaithful.

At the beginning of 1206, Temujin built the Jiuju White Silk At the head of the River. The sorcerer and son of Monlik, Kuokuo, pretended to speak to the ghost god and announced that Temujin would be granted the world, and the ghost god would crown Temujin as Genghis Khan. The courtiers also said that the Gu'er Khan of Zamuhe was an usurpation, so he agreed to give Temujin the title of Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan means as follows: "Cheng" is strong in strength, and "Jis" is also the majority.

Ironwood truly established the Great Mongolian State.

Emperor Dafeng was a hero, with Bor shu as the right wing ten thousand households, Muhua Li as the left wing ten thousand households, and Nagaa as the Chinese army ten thousand households. Huo'er Chi was also sealed as a thousand households, and Borku was the thousandth household merit. A total of 85 people were sealed with 10,000 households and 1,000 households. Take kudu tiger as zaku, translate the words of the judge. Yi Yake pinched the wu neighbors, led the guards to a thousand people, also Sun Ti'e led a thousand people with arrows, and Huo Gelian, Dishe, Al chi gang, Duo Gang, Duo Huo Le Kuo, Cha Nai, Ah Ku tai, and Ah Er Bao led the guards to disperse eight thousand people, and divided into straights, which were for the four cowardly Xue.

In this year, Kubi came to consult He'erlu and ordered him not to pursue Gu Chuluke.

In 1207, Temujin decided to attack Western Xia. The emperor of Western Xia at this time was Emperor Xiangzong of Western Xia.

Was Genghis Khan a national hero or a sinner of history?

Temujin, no, the reason why Genghis Khan attacked the Western Xia was not to use this as a springboard to attack the Jin Kingdom, in fact, it was far from that step, he actually used this as an excuse to complete the unfinished task of unifying the various departments. After Genghis Khan invaded the city of Wulahai, he did not continue to attack The Western Xia, but sent Altan and the two men to inform the Qi'erjith Department. The Beggars did not come together to attack, and Genghis Khan immediately had an excuse to conquer the tribes in the northwest of the forest. Therefore, Shu Chi led an army to attack. "Minister Kudu Habetsu begs to surrender. Entering the land of bald horses and consortia, Hu Yila, Brigat, Balkhun, Wuersute, Habhanas, Kanghasi, and Vultures surrendered. Minister Qi'erjith also offered the jin of Dijnale, Aledi Er, and Hulebek, offering white sea greens, white horses, sables and other objects. The Middle Linmu Clan Lost Bi'er, Kesi Yin, Bayite, Bald Hath, Tian Leke, De'erlesi, Tasi, Baji, etc. also descended. At this point, Temujin completely completed the unification of the desert north and the desert south grassland.

Different positions have long been debated about whether Genghis Khan was a national hero or a historical sinner. The Ming Dynasty's "History of the Yuan" is vague about the position of the Yuan Dynasty, while the "New Yuan History" is more inclined to take the position of the Mongol rulers. In contemporary historians, different positions will also draw different conclusions. Historians of Western Asia, Russia, and Europe who were conquered by the Mongols would say that he was a brutal tyrant, the southern Chinese of the former Southern Song Dynasty, and the contemporary Mongol rulers, especially in Sichuan, which had suffered Mongol massacres. In the Central Plains and north and northwest China, some believe that Genghis Khan is a national hero of the Chinese nation, and some believe that Genghis Khan is a butcher who kills too much, while the northeast region mainly affirms the merits of Genghis Khan.

So, what did Genghis Khan say? In fact, we must be sure that Genghis Khan and his successors created the largest land empire in the history of the world (the later British Empire was the Maritime Empire), which created one military miracle after another. However, the Mongols killed too much in the process of conquest, even if Kublai Khan tried not to massacre the Southern Song Dynasty, and did not shave their hair like the later Qing rulers, but their later exploitation policies made the reputation of the Yuan Dynasty not good, and the Mongols spread a large number of plagues during the conquest process, which did cause a large number of population losses, which caused the southerners to resist the Yuan Dynasty even more, and as for the southerners to resist the Qing Dynasty, it was another matter.

It is said that in 1208, Genghis Khan once again ordered the attack on Western Xia, at this time, the Jin Kingdom also had the emperor's death and usurpation of the throne, causing a certain degree of internal turmoil in Jin, Western Xia and Jin State were both emperors at this time, originally this was a great opportunity to attack Western Xia and Jin Kingdom, but Genghis Khan ordered the withdrawal of troops, what is this for? Stay tuned to the Yuan Dynasty series.
