On the reasons why the Yuan Dynasty always slaughtered cities and national issues

First of all, it is stated that this is the author's own thoughts and analysis, not the conclusions of archaeological history. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info is not an answer to book friends, but just a little emotional, not vomiting and unhappy.

In the wars throughout Asia and Europe, the Yuan Dynasty always liked to adopt a slaughter strategy after the war and when the city was broken, and the author believes that there are three reasons for this.

First of all, the battle line of the Yuan Dynasty was so long that there was no way to rely on its own logistics troops for supplies, and the places they passed were like locusts crossing the border, leaving no grass behind. Feed the war with war, plunder the food and property of the inhabitants on the spot, so that they can act like the wind and fight a blitzkrieg. And in order to prevent these robbed people from rebelling directly, the easiest way is to slaughter the city.

Secondly, although the Mongol army is brave and good at fighting, coming and going like the wind, but they are extremely bad at fighting tough battles, they are better at fighting guerrilla warfare on the plains, using one person, two horses, or even three horses, to fly kites, and he will run when people come, and he will chase when people run. When pursued, they can fire arrows at the rear, while the enemy can only bite the bullet and take the face. If you chase people, because there are many horses, they just run fast, and no one can run away, so they can win all battles. And the siege battle, the siege battle, the cavalry advantage is completely gone, it is said that they fought West Asia, fought Europe, the road was smooth, and it took more than 20 years to fight Xiangyang in the Southern Song Dynasty. Because they have no good way to break through the city, they can only fill it with human lives.

It was not until the end that they mobilized the captive slaves of European countries and used crowd tactics to break the national gate of the Southern Song Dynasty. And the loss of each broken city is self-evident.

Therefore, in order to alleviate the dissatisfaction of the soldiers, the Mongols could only order the slaughter of the city, let the soldiers burn and loot at will, and boost morale.

In the end, the Mongol territory was so large that his regular troops were overstretched to defend the city separately, so the Mongols chose to slaughter the city in order to prevent rebellions and repeated enemies. We can't carry out 120 years of ideological education.

To sum up, the Yuan Dynasty did not have a preference for slaughtering the city, but it was just that the situation at that time was such that it had to be done. There is no need to hate the Mongols as much as they hate the Japanese, because the Japanese massacre was not a last resort, but a killing pleasure, and the Nanjing Massacre was only to vent their anger, and there was no reason to do it at all, so people hated Japanese imperialism and were inhumane.

In addition, the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Jin State, and the Southern Song Dynasty scholars were ashamed, so they strongly opposed the alliance with the Jin State, and the emperor was even more unlikely to form an alliance with the Jin State, or let Yue Fei take back the previous emperor, or what should he do himself, so the Southern Song Dynasty wanted to destroy the Jin State, but on the other hand, he could not do it himself, and the alliance with the Mongols became inevitable.

The Han people of the Central Plains, to be honest, are their own cheats, and for thousands of years after Confucius, no one can jump out of Confucius's thinking circle, and they will eventually attract evil consequences. It can't be said that it is Confucius's fault, nor can it be said that it is anyone's fault, but it can only be said that everyone is at fault, which is why this result is caused. We can only mourn their misfortunes, be angry with them, and strive to move forward.

I write novels just to imagine what it would be like if I could change the past and give everyone a little comfort in their hearts, and I don't want to argue which country will cause more damage to the Central Plains......

On the national question.

The author has lived in Northeast China for more than ten years, and in Inner Mongolia for nearly ten years, and finally came to Tianjin. Classmates, friends, and relatives, including Manchu, Han, Hui, Mongolian, Korean, and even college classmates and Tujia. The author really doesn't feel any ethnic differences, everyone speaks Mandarin, they all eat meat and drink wine, what's the difference?

The past is gone, so why bother dwelling, the author, a native of Northeast China, has only boycotted Japanese goods, and he has not shouted every day to bring down Japanese imperialism. If everyone is really patriotic, like me, I won't buy Japanese products, no matter how good they are, look at what Japan will be like. In addition to the author's first mobile phone is Nokia, then it is Xiaomi, Xiaomi 2, Xiaomi Mi 3, and now Nubia (because the appearance of Nubia mobile phones is really good-looking, please forgive me for being from the Appearance Association...... If people really have such a strong hatred that they have to be angry about who killed someone hundreds of or eighty years ago, what is going on with Apple's sales in China or something, the New Silk Road is not just lying to itself, and global economic integration is a joke.

In fact, the people of the Northeast are very bold, and every time they go back to their hometown, they have to pour the author down, so they are willing to give up. In the past, in Inner Mongolia, Mongolians could often be seen in social groups gathered together, all of which were black trench coats and black sunglasses. But they have never interfered with people's normal life, or violated the law, just a group of people gathered together to protect the stability of the Mongolian residential area, of course, now it is gone. I remember that at the beginning, whether it was talking to the Northeast people or the Mongolians, there was no need to beat around the bush, there was no need to hide it, they would not hide what they said, joy was joy, anger was anger. Unlike now, of course, it is not that the people of Tianjin are bad, but that the social status quo in China, which the author does not like.

Thinking about the fact that at that time, people's field of vision was only square inches, their knowledge was shallow, they did not know the size of the universe, they did not know the breadth of the world, and they did not know for what kind of nationality they were fighting for their heads and bloodshed. This kind of thing was not uncommon in ancient times, but it has never been heard of in modern times.

As for saying that now we are enduring humiliation for the sake of development, and if we can dominate the whole world in the end, we have to shout long live country Z while killing all enemies, and then there will be genocide, which is too unrealistic.

And, what is the difference between this and the group of people in slippers who shouted "Long live the Emperor", or the group of Na who engaged in the genocide of the Jews?

The author believes that the so-called national disputes are all limited to the background and historical conditions of the times at that time, and are one-sided, but now, people have a broad field of vision, and naturally should not and will not be limited to such boring controversies in the past. After all, first, it has been a long time, and secondly, the nationalities have been united, and everyone should also respond to the party's call to build a harmonious society.

The author's favorite thing is to sit under the night sky, watch the stars shine, and fantasize about what is still in this distant and endless deep space, and what thrilling or singing stories are happening. What, why, and how it will be, endless curiosity, perhaps, is the driving force of human development. The reason why I wrote the book is that I want to tell others about my fantasies. Isn't it much more interesting to devote yourself to the endless ocean of knowledge and to the endless fantasy world than to dwell on some hatred and anger?

Well, it seems to be a bit off-topic, well, to sum up, it's some of my shallow cognition of the national dispute, it's not good, please forgive me.
