Genghis Khan passed by Liupan Mountain and died suddenly during his journey to the Western Xia. This place is now Qingshui County, Gansu Province. As we all know, Genghis Khan was physically strong and died suddenly all his life. There are various records about his death in later history books.
Among them, the more legendary thing is that he died under the honey trap of Xixia people, and was killed by a poisonous needle hidden in the mouth of Xixia princess in the process of having fun-because this cause of death affected the image too much, it was either not recorded in the history books of later generations or avoided talking about it.
The rise of Genghis Khan
This Mongolian hero was called Genghis Khan before he became Genghis Khan. He was the heir of a small Mongolian tribe at that time. But because my father died early, he is said to be the heir, but there is nothing to inherit. Not only was his tribe weak and small in number, but Temujin had to be attached to other more powerful forces when he was very young because his father had sworn enemies with other tribes before his death.
After losing his father's shelter, even his own people and relatives began to dislike Temujin and his mother. In the face of internal and external troubles, they had to take refuge in the Kelie Department, and Temujin also conveniently recognized its leader as the adoptive father, and temporarily got a place to live.
But Temujin's mother and son will not die for a day, and the enemy's covet for them will not stop. Soon after, the enemy tribe led the army to attack. This time Temujin chose to lure the enemy deep and wait for an opportunity. Although his family and some people were captured by the enemy because they had no time to move, Temujin joined forces with other troops on the other side to stop them in the middle of the enemy's retreat and achieved great victory.
In this battle, Temujin not only defeated the enemy, destroyed most of them, but also gained a lot of property, livestock and territory. More importantly, this war made Temujin famous. After the battle, many aborigines came to defect, and foreigners came here to join Temujin, a new multi-ethnic tribe, and began to flourish.
With the strengthening of Temujin tribe's strength, his expansion on the site has reached a frightening speed. Such a strong speed has made other tribes around feel the fear of the future. Facing the vigilance of most tribes around him, Temujin knew that it was essential to expand his popularity, unite the strong and show his muscles.
First, he took the enemy by surprise, defeated the strongest tribe in Wang Han and established his own authority; Loyal to King Khan of Mongolia, he was inherited by the State of Jin and became the most capable tribe under Wang Han. At the same time, he also actively contacted the court of the State of Jin, expressing his loyalty and secretly accumulating his own strength, waiting for the day when his wings were full.
The glory of great Mongolia
The rise of emerging forces will inevitably lead to the demise of the old forces. The old nobles on the Mongolian grassland have realized that Temujin's blade must be his own. So they United the tribes, elected Zamu as the leader and Temujin as the enemy, and never stopped.
But Temujin at this time is no longer the chick chased by the enemy. In the name of Wang Han, he assembled a large number of soldiers and launched a war with the aristocratic alliance. Not surprisingly, the battle ended in Temujin's victory. Then he cut off other forces that threatened him. From then on, no tribe on the grassland could threaten his rule.
However, the Wang Han clan, which Temujin has used for a long time, has already felt Temujin's fame and threatened his position. They want to unite with the nobles again and sanction Temujin in turn. But this idea was seen through by Temujin, who led the army to attack first, but failed because of too few troops.
However, the king who won the battle was lax. As a result, Temujin led the Qingqi attack and captured the whole Wang Hanjun aristocrat. When Wang Han's imperial clan was destroyed, Temujin took its place, calling himself the Great Khan of Mongolia, which was called "Genghis Khan" in history-Genghis Khan means the sea in Mongolian, meaning the king with a vast territory like the sea.
After the unification of Mongolia, Genghis Khan's footsteps did not stop there. His goal is to unify the whole country. At that time, in the East Asian plate, the most powerful country was Jin State, which oppressed the Mongols the most. Therefore, Genghis Khan aimed at Xu Jin as the first goal of conquest.
At this time, Xu Jinguo is no longer that ambitious country. Royal life is corrupt and soldiers are cowardly. How can it be an opponent of Mongolian fighters? But before destroying the gold, we had to get rid of our ally Xixia, so Genghis Khan personally led troops to crusade against Xixia and defeated the allied forces of Xixia and Jin Guo, and Xixia surrendered for the first time since then.
The death of a generation of tianjiao
In A.D. 1225, Xixia, which had already been beaten out of the water, secretly rebelled behind Genghis Khan's expedition to Europe. Temujin couldn't forgive this behavior, regardless of his fatigue after returning from victory, and he was over 60 years old, and he once again crusaded against Xixia by personal expedition.
King Xixia didn't expect Genghis Khan to come so soon. After the capital was besieged, he hurriedly surrendered. Originally, the Western Expedition was just an ordinary battle. What didn't arrive first was Temujin, who was on his way to Li, easily fell ill and died halfway.
There are about three kinds of rumors about his death. When he said that he was assassinated, the murderer was the princess of Xixia: it turned out that the king of Xixia sacrificed his princess for peace in order to surrender. But who knows that the princess had a poisonous needle in her mouth, and when Genghis Khan was unprepared, she stabbed him, and eventually Genghis Khan died of poisoning.
Some people say that Genghis Khan died by falling off a horse, but for him who grew up on horseback and served as a soldier all his life, this kind of death seems absurd. In contrast, it is more credible to say that he died of acute disease. It is precisely because the first two causes of death are too bizarre that many historical books have not described them in detail. Of course, it may also be for Genghis Khan to avoid ugliness.
After the death of Genghis Khan, his descendants expanded the territory of the Mongolian empire several times on the basis of his territory, and soon the Mongolian empire became the largest empire in the world at that time, even in the history of the earth.
