In the eyes of all countries in the world, the strength of a country mainly depends on the army, and in history, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army has always been the first in the world, until nearly 300 years gradually replaced by Western countries, but in the long years, China once had a period of strength to reach its peak, the territory of more than 13 million square kilometers, this dynasty is the Yuan Dynasty.
The predecessor of the Yuan Dynasty was the Mongols founded by Genghis Khan, when the Mongolian Iron Horse was very brave and good at war, not only crushing the contemporaneous countries, but also hitting Poland in the west, the Mongolian troops of the Western Expedition were once a nightmare in Central Asia and Europe, the tall walls could not stop their powerful military, and the Mongolian army was so strong for a reason.
First of all, they learned the gunpowder technology of the Central Plains, the Jin Dynasty at that time in the manufacture of firearms is quite powerful, after the iron wood zhen attacked the Jin Kingdom, a large number of advanced technology was mastered, so the walls of central Asia became paper paste, but also because of the Mongolian iron horse's western expedition, gunpowder and printing technology were introduced to the West, directly leading to the development of firearms in later generations.
In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, the Mongolian Iron Horse has many special military orders, such as the soldiers going out on the expedition, many people miss their hometowns, do not want to fight anymore, after all, the lone army is also a taboo for soldiers, and in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, there was a military order at that time, as long as the bravest 1,000 soldiers can go home, which greatly increases the combat effectiveness of the army.
Although the Yuan Dynasty established by Mongolia in later generations collapsed and disintegrated in less than a hundred years, it returned to the north of the desert, and then it was suppressed in the Ming Dynasty, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Outer Mongolia was directly independent, and the Russian government was quite close, and also abolished its own 800-year-old script, attaching 1.56 million square kilometers of land to other countries, and now becoming one of the poorest countries in Asia.
