Many people think that the combat effectiveness of the Southern Song army is very weak, which is wrong. To give a simple example, since the Mongolian army started its expedition, a country can be wiped out in almost a few months or a year or two. However, Mongolia spent nearly half a century in the battle to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty! So, what is the reason? This has to start with the battle of Diaoyucheng .
1. The cause of the war
Mongolian tribe After being unified by Genghis Khan , their dream is to conquer the world!
Therefore, for some countries that do not bow to their heads, they will all be wiped out.
Thus, the Mongols embarked on a protracted expedition.
After joining forces with the Southern Song Dynasty to destroy Jin, Mongolia and Southern Song Dynasty naturally could no longer live in peace, so war inevitably broke out.
However, although the Southern Song Dynasty looks weak, it is not so easy to be conquered.
From the full-scale outbreak of the war in 1235 to the 22 years when Mongolia decided to launch a large-scale war to destroy the Song Dynasty in 1257, although the Mongolian army was superior in the military, it did not destroy the Southern Song Dynasty.
Such a result naturally made the Mongolians who were accustomed to victory very uncomfortable, so a larger-scale war was being planned intensively.
2. The process of the war
After some preparations, Da Khan Meng decided to take Sichuan and other places first, and after completely solving his worries, he went down the river, and then went straight to Huanglong to complete the conquest.
If you want to take Sichuan, you must go to Diaoyucheng!
The Mongols are the same as before. They first send envoys to persuade them to surrender. Under normal circumstances, they only need to surrender themselves.Then not to slaughter the city. Otherwise, the chickens and dogs will not stay!
Although the overall military strength of the Southern Song Dynasty is not as good as the Mongols, many people still have a backbone, so Diaoyucheng defender Wang Jian killed the people, and the war broke out!
However, Diaoyu Jiancheng is not so easy to be broken. In addition, with proper command, adequate supplies, and one heart, he defeated the Mongolian army's several attacks one after another.
Seeing that several offensives have been defeated, the pioneer general Wang Dechen led the Mongolian army.
Then he began to persuade him to surrender, promising high-ranking officials to be generous.
However, at this time, someone in the Diaoyu City became uneasy. He told you to spray dung with a mouth full of dung, and suddenly threw a flying stone, which hit Wang Dechen solidly.
It is estimated that this person must have practiced. Soon after being hit, Wang Dechen went to the west.
After learning the news, Dahan Meng is really sad!
His sadness should be the same as Li Yunlong cry Wei Monk .
In addition, this fishing city cannot be attacked for a long time, and many brave generals have led the " noodles ", so they are very angry!
According to the record,In order to capture the Diaoyu City, Meng Ge personally supervised the battle in front!
The result?
was hit by Song Jun Liuya , and later died of illness.
However, it is not certain whether the record is reliable, after all, the true cause of death of Meng Ge is still a mystery.
However, the situation of the Mongolian army in the battle to destroy the Song Dynasty has changed a lot!
Because Meng Ge is dead, the rest of the people who have the right to inherit must go back and grab the sweat!
As a result, Kublai Khan, Alibuge who were attacking the Southern Song Dynasty all led their troops back.
What is it doing to attack the Southern Song Dynasty?
The sweat position is the real fat!
3. The influence of the war
First of all, it boosted the confidence of the soldiers and civilians in the Southern Song Dynasty to resist Mongolia, and let people know that the Mongols were not invincible.
Secondly, after the death of Meng Ge, the Mongolian heirs went back to fight for the throne of sweat, which won precious breathing time for the Southern Song Dynasty, which was equivalent to indirect life extension, and even had a significant impact on the war situation in Eurasia at that time. After all, the conquest of Mongolia has been silent for a while.
Finally, many people say that the Battle of Diaoyucheng changed history because Meng Ge died. This is debatable, but the new great Khan Kublai Khan is indeed a more open person, who will not slaughter the city at every turn. If Ge Meng is still alive, I am afraid that after the capture of Diaoyu City, the chickens and dogs will not stay...
