In the autumn of the twentieth year of Genghis Khan (1225), Genghis Khan returned to Mongolian grassland after seven years of western expedition. Muqali, commander-in-chief of Xixia, swallowed their anger and died. Genghis Khan insisted on personal expedition to Xixia regardless of his 64-year-old age. I was injured in hunting on the way and had a high fever, but I still didn't retreat. King Xixia was forced to send an envoy to surrender.

Genghis Khan was critically ill and recuperated in Liupanshan, leaving three famous wills: using the revenge of Song and Jin to borrow the territory of Song and unite Song to destroy Jin. In the 22nd year of Genghis Khan (1August 25th, 227), on July 12th, Genghis Khan died in Xiaqingshui County (now Gansu Province) of Liupanshan at the age of 66.

Genghis Khan's life is like a heroic epic, which has left a deep impression on world history. Genghis Khan defeated other forces with an iron will and established Mongolia in 1206, ending the long-term scuffle between tribes in the Mongolian Plateau.

The long campaign turned Genghis Khan into an outstanding military commander. History calls him "a deep and general, using troops like gods." He has accumulated rich combat experience, such as using troops flexibly, paying attention to attacking the enemy from a distance, exploring the enemy's situation in detail before the war, and implementing tactics such as divide and rule, pretending to retreat and luring the enemy according to the situation.

With these, together with the Mongolian fighters with strong fighting capacity, they attacked Xixia, defeated Nuzhen and destroyed Western Liao, which inspired Genghis Khan's ambition to conquer the world. At this time, history is also very good for him. When Mongolia suddenly emerged, other neighboring countries were in a period of deep crisis in feudal society, which provided favorable conditions for Genghis Khan's large-scale military expansion.

So he made an unprecedented expedition to Central Asia and Europe, opening a way for his successors. Genghis Khan shocked the world because of his military achievements in sweeping Europe and Asia!

Genghis Khan also had outstanding talents in governing the country and ensuring security. In order to consolidate his rule, Genghis Khan established a thousand households system. Thousands of households, as military and local administrative units, have replaced the backward clan tribal system.

Genghis Khan's brilliant achievements here are beyond the reach of other emperors. On the one hand, he gave the hero a favor, on the other hand, he chose the sons of thousands of families as guards, which is essentially a proton behavior to strengthen the control of the hero.

In employing people, Genghis Khan broke the restrictions of rank and nationality, and he used all the talents. The "four horses" are civilians or slaves, Lu Yechu is the vassal of the State of Jin, and there are even Persians and Arans.

These people made great contributions to his campaign. Genghis Khan initiated Khan's democratic election. In his will, he stipulated that Khan's election must be decided by Hulietai.

Khuriletai was originally a tribal meeting, which became a kind of tribal meeting during Genghis Khan's period, and all important people had to attend. Khan must be a respected person elected by everyone, which ensures the smooth transfer of Khan's power. This is how several successors of Genghis Khan were born.
