Third, Battle of Diaoyu City , killing the Mongolian Khan Mengge postponed the war against Southern Song .
Before Mengge was beaten to death, Mongolia was split into three armies to launch an attack on the Southern Song Dynasty. With the death of Mengge, these three Mongolian armies did stop attacking the Southern Song Dynasty.
Kublai led the left army. After the news of Mengge's death came, Kublai did not believe it at that time, and continued to fight for a while. After confirming, he immediately withdrew his troops and wanted to go back to compete with Alibuge for the position of Khan.
The commander of the left army, Wuliang Hetai, led the Yuan army to occupy Dali, enter Guangxi, and go to Guizhou, and fight against the Song army in Hunan. Kublai Khan sent an envoy to contact him to go north, and he also retreated the troops attacking Song. Give the Southern Song Dynasty a chance to breathe.
The death of Mengge once again faces a challenge to Mongolian Empire . At this time, according to the rules of the Mongolian Empire, all the leaders of the tribes should return to the north of the desert to hold the Curile Taiwan Conference, and the new Mongolian Khan was elected after consultation.
Kublai Khan knew that if he returned to Mobei, he would be the lamb to be slaughtered and would not be elected. The one who inherited the throne was his and his mother-in-law Ali Buge.
Kublai quickly returned to his fiefdom Kaiping (now in Zhenglan Banner, Inner Mongolia), and actively contacted the kings in the desert. On March 24, he held an Huliletai conference in Kaiping. With the support of a small number of leaders and sect kings, he became the Khan of the Mongolian Empire.
Kublai Khan ascended the throne in the south of the Mori, which was beyond the expectation of Alibuge. In May, the Curry National Congress attended by most leaders and sect kings in Mori were held in May to elect Alibuge as the Mongolian Khan.
At this time, the Mongolian Empire had two great khans, Kublai Khan and Ali Buge. The Mongolian nobles were dissatisfied with Kublai Khan's morality and violated the rules. They were dissatisfied with Kublai Khan. Except for Yili Khan, the other four Khanates, the Khanate Khanate, , , www.gedei Khanate, , cha and tai Khanate, all supported Alibuge as the legitimate Khan of the Mongolian Empire.
Next, Kublai Khan relied on the rich human and material resources of the Han area and launched a civil war with his brother for several years. He first defeated Hunduhai, Alan Daer, and others who held heavy troops in Shaanxi and Gansu, and personally fought against Helin. The civil war between the two sides lasted for five years. In the spring of 1264, Alibuge was forced to lose, imprisoned by Kublai Khan, and poisoned by Kublai Khan in 1266.
The battle between Kublai Khan and Alibuge led to a great division of the Mongolian Empire, the four major khanates were independent one after another, and many tribes in the northern desert did not obey Kublai Khan's constraints and acted on their own. Objectively, it provided an opportunity for Kublai Khan to strengthen his rule over the Central Plains.
In May of the fourth year of Zhongtong (1263), Kublai Khan was promoted to Shangdu.
In August of the fifth year of Zhongtong (1264), Yanjing was changed to Zhongdu.
to the end of the eighth year of (1271), the country name was changed from " Great Mongolian " to "Dayuan". Kublai Khan became the head of state and became the "Sa Zen Khan" in Mongolia.
In February of the fifth year of Zhiyuan (1272), Zhongdu was changed to Dadu.
In the tenth year of Zhiyuan (1273), the Dadu Palace was built.
On the New Year's Day of the following year (1274), Kublai Khan accepted congratulations in the main hall, and Yuan Dynasty has since established the capital of Dadu . So far, the capital (Beijing) has become the political center of a multi-ethnic country.
Historians believe that the death of Mengge in Diaoyu City delayed the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty by 20 years. It did not change the fate of the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty.
