When the curtain was removed, a majestic military drawing was seen on the wall in front~~~~
The so-called military drawing is not an ordinary art painting, but it is more precise than painting.
It is a common thing in the tents of kings and generals. In ancient times, there was no technological exploration equipment today, so spies used their lives to explore and record everything outside, and hired professional painters to draw military drawings, which were full of paintings.
In order to control the entire country or border area, as well as the direction of the next conquest, and even the outlook for the conquered area, etc.~~
Military drawings do not pay attention to painting form, nor to decoration and aesthetics. They mainly focus on measurement standards and clear status. Just like today's military strategic drawings, every mountain, river, grass and tree, and even a country bumpkin are indispensable.

Chen Zhi once saw a map of the Qing generals' conquests in the late Qing Dynasty in the unearthed tomb of a Shengjing general. On that map, the entire Shengjing area was clearly drawn. Which street and which street?
The shops, the residential areas, including the secret passages in the garrison points in the area, as well as the locations where troops can be garrisoned, are all very clearly controlled.
However, it was the first time for Chen Zhi to see such a majestic and super-large military drawing...
The majesty of this military map is that it made a detailed plan for the entire world, including mainland China at that time, Russia in the north, Southeast Asian islands, and Africa and Europe as far away as the horizon.
It is estimated that this is very difficult to do in today's world. It is unimaginable that such a map could have been drawn in ancient Mongolia a thousand years ago~~~~
This seems to be a prospect map. In this magnificent map, all areas are painted with green grass. In other words, what Genghis Khan dreamed of at that time was to turn the entire earth into a grassland with thousands of miles of grassland.
There are herds of cattle and sheep, and the Mongolian iron hoofs have trampled everything.
In the Central Plains of China, there are some paintings that symbolize the Han people. They are wearing the clothes of the Song Dynasty, but they are all painted with big red crosses with a red pen.
The meaning of this red cross is self-evident. It seems that in Genghis Khan's mind at that time, he was not prepared to allow the Han race to stay.
Not only the Han people, many ethnic groups have been marked with big red crosses on this vast territory. Most of these ethnic groups have become extinct. There are also some ethnic minorities that only exist in legends, such as the Wuxian Kingdom and the Dongren Kingdom.
, Rouran Kingdom; and the famous Baimin Kingdom.
If this map were shown to the world now, it would definitely overturn the historical world view.
Everyone will discover that these legendary nations actually existed at that time, but were later trampled under the iron hooves of the Mongols, and have been exterminated since then~~~
And there are many ethnic groups in the region that have been transformed into the shape of cattle and horses. They crawl on the ground. If they work like cattle and horses, some ethnic groups still stand and look like civilians~~~
This proves that Genghis Khan had different attitudes towards various ethnic groups at that time. Some of them he did not dislike, so he made them civilians, while some he disliked, so he made them slaves of cattle and horses!
But one thing is very obvious, that is, Genghis Khan had no mercy for the Han people~~~~
"A person who can conquer and punish well, but is cruel and conceited...",
Lao Jiandou looked at the magnificent picture in front of him and sighed softly:
"Just like when I studied Genghis Khan at that time, this man was not simple, but also determined, without any fear, very conceited and cruel~~~~
If you read his life biography, you will find that this man, as a human being, has too little humanity. He killed his biological brother at the age of eight, pierced him with an arrow, and then split the bones with a sharp knife.
Pleading, this is unimaginable for a child~~~
This person has never known fear, pity, or fear in his life.
Nomads believe in immortality, but Genghis Khan is not even afraid of gods. He only believes in himself...
After the Yuan Dynasty was established, it was divided into four levels.
First class: Mongols.
They have the highest status and their purpose is to maintain the privileges of the Mongolian nobility.
Second class: People with lustful eyes.
Mainly refers to the people from the Western Regions, who were the first to be conquered by Mongolia, such as Qincha, Tangwu, Uighur, Huihui, etc. In addition, some tribes that surrendered earlier around the Mongolian Plateau also belong to the Semu people, such as the Wanggu tribe.
Since the time of Genghis Khan, they have had a large number of marriages with the Mongols to reproduce their offspring and ensure their own rights~~~
Third class: Northerners.
Refers to the Han, Khitan, Jurchen and other ethnic groups in the former Jin Kingdom north of the Huaihe River, as well as the Sichuan and Yunnan people who were later conquered by the Mongols, and the Korean people in the northeast. They are also considered northerners.
Fourth class: Southerners (Han people)
Refers to the Han people of all ethnic groups in the original Southern Song Dynasty who were finally conquered by the Mongols. They had the lowest social status, the poorest life, and suffered multiple oppressions and discrimination.
At that time, the life of the Han people was unimaginably miserable, and they did not even have family relationships and human rights. When their women got married, they had to be given the right of first night by the Mongolian nobles, otherwise they would be beheaded by the whole family~~~
Many women were raped by Mongolian nobles when they were newly married, and then returned pregnant. Therefore, the Han people at that time did not know who the father of the first child born to the newly married daughter-in-law was, so in order to ensure a clean bloodline,
It is also because of their hatred of the Mongols that they have the habit of killing their firstborns~~~~
This cruel custom lasted until the fall of the Yuan Dynasty. Alas, what a sin!!!"
When Lao Jiudou said this, he shook his head helplessly,
"Such a person would actually issue a stop-kill order because of Qiu Chuji's advice! Look!
Come here Qiu Chuji, he is really an extraordinary person..."
"It's so cruel...",
Hu Meng looked at the magnificent mural in front of him, with a trace of guilt on his face.
“I never thought my ancestors could be so cruel!!
I have heard of these things before, but I always thought they were a bit exaggerated. I even thought they were made up by the Central Plains people later to slander the Mongols.
After all, who knew what happened so long ago? I didn’t expect that the reality would be more cruel than the legend! I, a Mongolian, shouldn’t be so cruel and ruthless..."
"Not all Mongolians are ruthless...",
Chen Zhi patted Hu Meng on the shoulder,
"Don't forget, it was Yelu Chucai who fought to the death to appear in court, and many young Mongolian princes fought hard to protect him, so the Han people were left alive~~~
There are also compassionate people among the nomads, but this Mongol Khan, Temujin, is so ruthless..."
