If you want to choose an army that can fight a good war, be invincible, and be invincible from the era of cold weapons, it must be a Mongol army with the name of God's whip.

But such a powerful Mongol army made a small city their nightmare, the Mongol Han died here, this small city in the world's strongest army Mongols under the repeated attack of the Mongols actually held out for 36 years, and finally through negotiations and peaceful liberation, did not let the Mongol army slaughter the city, this magical small city is Chongqing Hechuan Fishing City.

Diaoyu City is the gateway to Chongqing, the strategic location is extremely important, once the Mongol army breaks through this city, it can condescending to rush straight to Chongqing, once Chongqing is lost, the enemy army can take a boat down the river, straight to the Southern Song Dynasty capital Lin'an. Therefore, Diaoyu City became a place where the Mongols and the Southern Song Dynasty armies fought for life and death. Diaoyu City is located at the confluence of the Three Rivers of Jialing River, FuJiang River and Qujiang River, surrounded by water on three sides, only one side of the passage is still a cliff, and the cliffs are thousands of cliffs, and the real situation is inseparable. Generals such as Yu Jiu and Wang Jian stationed in Sichuan have spent decades to build Diaoyu City into the strongest fortress in the mountain city defense system. The most dangerous part of the city, known as the first line of heaven, could only pass through the cliffs and could only accommodate one person, which made the Mongol army's superiority in strength and cavalry useless.

Diaoyu City has an expanded area of fertile fields, ponds, fish ponds, can meet the perennial living needs of hundreds of thousands of residents, sufficient materials are a necessary condition to be able to stick to it all year round and never give up. Diaoyu City is not an isolated city, there are also 11 satellite cities such as Dayu, Genting, Qingju and other escorts around, they are interconnected through the sky stack and the secret passage, they can attack and retreat, and personnel and materials can be flexibly deployed. The outer city of Diaoyu City is the strongest, built on a cliff face, and its walls are as thick as 5 meters, which makes the Mongol army's back cannons play little role under the attack on the back. Instead, the Southern Song army could use firearms, bows and arrows, or trebuchets to inflict devastating blows on the Mongol army. The Mongol cavalry superiority could not be played out, the firepower superiority could not be issued, and finally could only think of a stupid way to dig tunnels, and finally dug into the diaoyu City, but was discovered in time by the defending general Wang Jian, after defeating the enemy, quickly closed the tunnels with stones, completely eliminating the Idea of the Mongol Army to break through the city by digging tunnels.

The Shu Road was difficult to go up to qingtian, and not only was it difficult for the army to march, but it was also very difficult for the water army to march. In 1258, Möngke Khan rashly led a 40,000-strong army to attack Sichuan in three ways, in one fell swoop to take the Diaoyu City of Nail Household, and the defender of the city, Wang Jian, adopted a strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the field in response to the enemy's difficulties in supply, and the Mongols could not attack for a long time, and the military supply became increasingly tense. The Southern Song Dynasty generals in Diaoyu City had no worries about food and clothing, and they also used trebuchets to throw fish meat and noodle cakes in Diaoyu City into the Mongol army, indicating that their food supplies were sufficient, and it would not be a problem to defend for another ten years, and the morale of the Mongol army was frustrated. The Mongol army also encountered a great drought and hot weather, the water and soil were not satisfied, the plague was rampant, and Möngke Khan killed the city, saying that he was suffering from malaria, and saying that he was hit by the cannon stones of the Southern Song Army, and he died of his wounds. Later, the Great Khan Kublai Khan also tried to conquer Diaoyu City along the route of Möngke Khan, but in the end he failed, had to bypass Diaoyu City, first captured Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, and finally negotiated to make Wang Li, the defender of Diaoyu City, surrender, on the condition that the people in the city should not be slaughtered.
