The image of the Mongols has always been tall and mighty, although such an image is related to the geographical location of mongolia' vast land, but the most direct relationship is that the Mongols once appeared with an iron-blooded Genghis Khan. As the founding father of the Yuan Dynasty, Genghis Khan was a very famous ruler, and because he let the Mongols enter the Central Plains to unify the country.
Although Genghis Khan killed countless people in a tyrannical manner, he also had his own principles in his life, although he slaughtered the people of the city many times for the sake of geographical expansion. But When Genghis Khan slaughtered the city, he would also lay down the butcher's knife to three kinds of people, including child blacksmiths and people who stole away.
Genghis Khan was an outstanding military figure in the Great Mongolian State, because Mongolia was sparsely populated and most of them lived on the steppe, so most of them developed a heroic and courageous character. It was precisely because of this that Genghis Khan spent his life in war. During his reign, more than forty countries were wiped out and unified in the Central Plains, which could not satisfy his expansionist heart
The Mongols are based on tribes, and the large families in the tribe have the right to speak in this tribe, but the competition between the families is also very fierce, and the slightest carelessness will be excluded from the tribe by other families. Genghis Khan was originally born into a large family, but because of the struggle for interests between the major families, his family was unfortunately excluded from the tribe at that time
It was also the misfortune of the country in his youth that made Genghis Khan develop such a decisive character. The first thing Genghis Khan did after his wings were full was to unify Mongolia, but this was far from satisfying Genghis Khan's ambitions, expanding his tribe in the war, and even many regimes surrendered first because they were too afraid of Genghis Khan's strength.
Automatically become a member of Genghis Khan's powerful force, follow Genghis Khan to continue to invade other countries. After Genghis Khan came to power, he gained the largest territory of 45 million square kilometers, although some land was later abandoned because the territory was too large and there were always foreign invasions on the frontier.
The period of political stability also reached thirty-five million territories. These lands have even reached the land of the present Korean Peninsula and Hungary. Genghis Khan opened up Eurasia and became the hegemon of all of Asia. Although Genghis Khan achieved such great success, his evaluation in history has been mixed because he was too bloody. But there were very few emperors who could achieve such achievements, and even if Genghis Khan bled too much in the war, he also contributed to the interaction between Eurasia and played a very important role in later development
Because Genghis Khan unified Mongolia and brought the Mongolian people to a farther place, Genghis Khan has been a national hero in the hearts of the Mongolian people until now, and it is also a symbol of Mongolia. Achieving hegemony has always been informal, coupled with the fact that Genghis Khan himself is a decisive character, so Genghis Khan also has the blood of countless people on the road to achieving hegemony
In order to show his military strength in the war, Genghis Khan killed the enemy and never left himself with trouble. At the same time, in order to reflect his noble rights, he has always trampled on life and killed arbitrarily, because most people are afraid of Genghis Khan's power and dare not say anything more, and even the Mongolian people are proud of Genghis Khan.
Because the Mongol people needed Genghis Khan to lead them to conquer farther afield. As a nomadic mongol state, they admired power in their bones, and Genghis Khan showed great power to formalize what they followed. The most important thing for Genghis Khan after the rapid seizure of power was to stabilize the regime. But the Mongolian people living on the steppe are vast but sparsely populated.
Genghis Khan ruled more and more territory, but there were not many people who could rule this territory, so in order to better control the ruled population, they could only continue to kill those who had the ability to resist, only in this way would they be able to stabilize their power and better conquer the ruled
In his heyday, Genghis Khan laid down 40 million square kilometers of land, which were built by Genghis Khan and the Mongol people. What Genghis Khan had to do after laying down each city was to slaughter the city, and only by consuming the will of the people in the city could he submit to him. But he had his own principle of killing people with three kinds of people That Genghis Khan did not kill.
A man like Genghis Khan who kills decisive people does not blink an eye, but he tells his men that three kinds of people cannot be killed when he slaughters the city. The first is that the child Genghis Khan was the most kind to the child, and he thought that it was not a disaster for the child. Children are still young, after training can be cultivated into Mongolians, and when they grow up, they can help Genghis Khan build Mongolia, so children cannot be killed.
The second type of person is the age of craftsmen, the era of cold weapons, and the wars between various tribes are determined by hand-to-hand combat. So Genghis Khan needed craftsmen to produce weapons, Genghis Khan fought all his life, he would not stop expanding because of the expansion of the land, so he left the craftsmen to produce aggressive weapons for him.
The third is that the people who run away may be very puzzling to the people who have run away from Genghis Khan. The captive generals who escaped in this way would be eliminated quickly, but Genghis Khan did not think much of them. Genghis Khan believed that those who escaped from him would never again pose a threat to him.
Because there has already been an experience of facing death, it will not return to genghis Khan's hands in any case. The fear of death that those who run away will run far will follow them for the rest of their lives
What can make Genghis Khan have such great achievements is not only that Genghis Khan has a very strong military ability to kill and decide, but also that Genghis Khan can establish the fear of the invaded, so that they will involuntarily fear him and no longer dare to have any resistance Spirit, which is the most terrible corrosive ability
Not long after Genghis Khan formed a unified regime, the 45 million kilometers of territory were divided into several small khanates. Although Genghis Khan had the ability to invade, he was slightly incapable of governance During his reign, there was a internal struggle for power and profit, which led to the final split. But none of this can obliterate the fact that Genghis Khan was the great hero of Mongolia.
