Whether a person has the ability or not depends on whether he will know people. Although Genghis Khan could not read big characters, his ability to read people was unmatched, which is why he was able to traverse Eurasia.
Genghis Khan's nobleman was the leader of the Kreb tribe, King Tsakura Khan, and without the help of The King Khan, Genghis Khan would have had some difficulties in gaining a foothold in the steppes where the masses rose together.
However, Wang Khan also had times when he was in trouble. When Genghis Khan was hunted down and left homeless by Zamuhe in the Battle of the Thirteen Wings, Wang Khan was also hunted down and killed and became a dog that lost his family.
As the leader of the Krebu, Wang Khan's connections were not very good, and during his escape, he actually reached the point where no one took him in. When Genghis Khan gradually came out of the shadow of defeat and gradually increased his strength, the first thing he did was not how to defeat Zamuhe, but to send three thousand cavalry to find Wang Khan, and his generals expressed dissatisfaction, and Genghis Khan thought: This is a treasure.
Wang Khan was indeed a treasure bump, but unfortunately, Zamuhe did not have Genghis Khan's ability to recognize people.
The King Khan who was unaccompanied
The Kreb is an ancient tribe that has become the strongest tribe on the steppe over the course of more than a hundred years of development.
Any dynasty, when the comfortable life has been too long, will fight for power and profit, and deceive me. Although Wang Khan was outwardly benevolent, his methods were very cruel, and after he succeeded to his father's Khan's throne, he ruthlessly eliminated his two brothers. However, he had a clever younger brother named Erkehela, who, after seeing that Wang Khan did not talk about brotherhood at all, before Wang Khan could do anything to him, after learning the news in advance, snatched a fast horse and fled to the neighboring country Naimanbu for refuge.
The Naimanbu have become a semi-settled country, with its own writing and relatively complete state institutions, and is the most civilized tribe in the steppe. When Wang Khan of the NaibanBu heard the narration of Erke he was shocked, he absolutely did not tolerate his neighbor being helmed by a fierce man. Therefore, an elite army was sent, and erke Hela was very familiar with the terrain, and it was effortless to destroy Wang Khan's lair. Erke became the new master of the Krebu.
Wang Khan, escorted by his own soldiers, fled west in a panic. However, the emperor of the Western Liao did not want to keep him, but only gave him a few sheep and a few camels, and asked him to throw himself elsewhere, and in this way, Wang Khan fled to Wu'er and Western Xia, and no one was willing to lend him a helping hand.
Those who followed him saw that Wang Khan had a dim future and left him one after another.
It is conceivable that the king Khan of the Tangkrayd Ministry wandered around, and how desolate it was.
Genghis Khan: King Khan is a treasure
After the Battle of the Thirteen Wings, although Genghis Khan was defeated by Zamuhe, Zamuhe was unpopular, and many people betrayed him and surrendered to Genghis Khan's big tent, so that his strength was quickly restored.
What is unexpected is that after Genghis Khan gained strength, he paid more attention to the relationship with Wang Khan, and when he heard that Wang Khan had fled, he immediately sent three thousand Mongol cavalry to set out from different directions to find Wang Khan.
After a year of painstaking searching, Genghis Khan's Mongol cavalry finally found Wang Khan grazing his cattle next to a natural lake in the north of the desert. How Wang Khan survived without help is indeed a miracle, which can only show that he has a strong will.
Later, Genghis Khan not only personally led his troops to escort him to Kreb to regain the Khan's throne, but also gave him a lot of wealth.
Why did Genghis Khan go to great lengths to find the already lost King Khan and help him? This is the brilliance of Genghis Khan, and I think there are three main purposes:
First, Genghis Khan tried to win people's hearts.
Before Genghis Khan unified the steppe, the steppe was full of treachery, full of fraud and ferocity, and between people, there was no faith to speak of, only interests. This can be seen in the way Wang Khan treated his brothers.
However, Genghis Khan saw an opportunity in this, that is, when a person knows gratitude, it is easier to gain the trust and approval of others. Genghis Khan can gradually grow stronger, and wang khan's support has a lot to do with it, if there is no approval of wang khan, he wants to recruit troops on the grassland, it is completely impossible. In addition, after Genghis Khan's wife Bo Erti was snatched away by the contemptuous beggars, it was also Wang Khan who helped him snatch it back.
Genghis Khan helped Wang Khan, not only to repay the favor, but also to win people's hearts, he is to let the people on the grassland see that he Genghis Khan is a grateful person, a person who pays attention to faith, and following him will have a better way out.
The second is to form alliances.
If you want to grow yourself, the best and fastest and most convenient way is to rely on powerful people. Although Genghis Khan had a certain strength, he was also in danger of being destroyed by the enemy at any time. Genghis Khan had too many enemies, and everyone wanted him to be strong.
In the absence of a choice, Genghis Khan had only one ally, Wang Khan, and he naturally did not want his allies to disappear.
Third, Wang Khan was a man without great talent.
Although the Kliebu was strong and strong, and Wang Khan was also fierce, he was not an ambitious man, he was indecisive, and he did not want to unify the steppe. This is also the place where Genghis Khan valued it. Genghis Khan had ambitions and dreams, he wanted someone to help him fight the world, but he would never allow anyone to share the world with him, and Wang Khan was a very ideal collaborator.
It was Wang Khan who was a pawn of Genghis Khan that made him a treasure in Genghis Khan's eyes, and spared no effort to help Wang Khan re-sit on the Khan seat of Krebu.
Genghis Khan's help to Wang Khan soon paid off, and with the help of Wang Khan, Genghis Khan not only completely defeated Zamuhe, but also wiped out other tribes on the steppe. Eventually, Wang Khan himself was buried in the hands of Genghis Khan.
If you want to become strong, rely on the strength of your enemies! This is where Genghis Khan had wisdom. As for how to use it, it all depends on the means of the individual.
