introduction
As an ancient civilization, China has a history of thousands of years and rich cultural heritage. In the feudal period, there were one dynasty after another, and even some dynasties developed to the peak stage, of course, they could have strong strength, which must be inseparable from the management of the ruler and the hard work of many capable people. It's just that no dynasty can last long, and eventually the entire feudal dynasty is submerged in the long river of history. As we all know, in ancient times, people's thinking was more feudal and superstitious, so they felt that after death, they would go to another world, and they would put their favorite things, or gold and silver treasures, in the tomb as funerary goods, not to mention the tomb of the emperor. Usually the emperor's tomb contains a lot of valuable treasures, in addition to this, they will send people to guard the imperial tomb.
Genghis Khan, who fought bravely
There are many more famous figures in history, and the one I am talking about today has a legendary life. Even after hundreds of years, he can still be studied from different angles. This man fought bravely and well, won many battles, and established the Mongol Empire with his abilities. Hearing this, I believe that everyone has someone in their hearts. During his reign, he launched wars from many times to the night, and under his leadership, the West was comprehensively suppressed by the East and expanded its territory, which was also the time when China's territory was at its largest. It has to be said that he is a very capable person, his thinking is also relatively advanced, during this period he also invented blitzkrieg and trained the world's first large-scale artillery unit. The person I am talking about is Genghis Khan, I believe everyone is no stranger.
Genghis Khan's original name was Temujin, which left many legends about his battle in history. In the second year after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Genghis Khan was ridiculed by the emperor of Western Xia, which made him feel very angry and decided to give Western Xia a dismount. After making the decision, he also did three things, the first was to train the army for a month to siege the city, second, he sent multiple reconnaissance teams to search for intelligence, and the last thing was that before the war began, Genghis Khan sent people to put the Western Xia shepherds in the Wura Sea, hoping to spread the rumors that Genghis Khan slaughtered the city after the siege. Under his plan, the rumors really worked, causing panic among the people of the Woodlands Sea, and at that time they had already been defeated internally, and soon ushered in defeat. It may be that on the surface, Genghis Khan is a general who only knows how to attack, but everyone does not know that he is a delicate person and understands the importance of attacking the heart.
Battle of Bukhara
In addition, in 1220 Genghis Khan conquered Khorezm and captured the important town of Bukhara, a battle known as the Battle of Bukhara. So how did this battle come about? This was mainly because the latter made a mistake, when they not only robbed the Mongolian caravan, but even acted excessively, disfiguring the Mongolian ambassador who went to peace talks, because Genghis Khan felt very humiliated by this matter, Genghis Khan, who was nearly 60 years old at that time, went directly to war without thinking about it, and wanted to make this arrogant country pay for it. After that, Genghis Khan successfully reached the gate of the town through disguise, but Genghis Khan did not attack immediately because he had his own strategy. At that time he wanted to take the country with minimal losses, and he had such self-confidence. In order to make the atmosphere of terror in the city even stronger, Genghis Khan first attacked some small towns in the surrounding area, deliberately releasing many residents and letting them flee to Bukhara.
In this way, a large number of residents gathered in the city, and they could feel full of fear, which greatly affected the hearts of the people in the city. In fact, Genghis Khan also used another strategy, that is, to give the residents two choices, either surrender or join the Mongols, otherwise they can only meet death, it is because of Genghis Khan's strategy that the defenders in Bukhara feel very panicked, and even more than two hundred soldiers chose to flee to save their lives. But Genghis Khan guessed that such a situation also made the Mongol warriors wait outside, and in the end, these projection screens could also escape the fate of death. It is worth mentioning that the impact of this war is great. When the capital Samal Khan got the news, he directly chose to surrender. Genghis Khan achieved great success and left a glorious mark on his campaign career. I have to say that Genghis Khan is very capable and intelligent.
500 guards have been guarding the mausoleum for 800 years
The death of a legendary male like this is also in doubt. In the official history, the cause of death recorded as Genghis Khan was death by illness, because his identity was more sensitive, not to mention smeared, so the cause of his death has also become a mystery, and there are many rumors about the cause of his death, but either way, there is no way to determine. Even after his death, his descendants did not know where he was buried. Today, the specific location of Genghis Khan's mausoleum is in the Gandley grassland of the Yijin Horo Banner in Inner Mongolia.
In addition, his descendant Kublai Khan built eight palace tents for him to pay homage. In addition, this mausoleum is guarded by a mausoleum guarding force, which is composed of Genghis Khan's personal soldiers and some Mongolian nobles, who have no official position in their lives, and only need to complete their mission. Over time, this force has been passed down from generation to generation, and the scale has also become larger and larger, forming a special tribe with nearly 2,000 people, and more than 500 guards have been guarding the tomb for 800 years.
It is still guarding the mausoleum
Today, these many people have not given up their mission and are still persevering. Every year on the 21st day of the third month of the lunar calendar, many Mongols gather in front of the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan to commemorate their great ancestors. In any case, Genghis Khan's advanced ideas and wisdom are undoubted, and his life can be described as full of legends.
