Nine-year-old Temujin knelt by the river where his father was poisoned by the enemy. The family members dispersed overnight, and he was reduced from the son of the leader to an abandoned child on the grassland, struggling to survive in pursuit and hunger. However, this orphan who could not even reach the saddle had the ambition to annex the world ignited in his heart.
With his extraordinary will and wisdom, he weaved a network of connections in desperate situations: he exchanged a sable fur coat for the support of his powerful ally Wang Khan; he merged with Zhamu to form Anda, but they turned against each other in the battle for hegemony on the grassland. Although he was defeated in the "Battle of Thirteen Wings", it was an honor, but people's hearts turned to him. He conquered the master archer Zhebie, formed the "Four Mastiffs" cavalry, and gradually unified all Mongolian tribes. Finally, loud shouts rang out from the banks of the Onon River, and he was revered as "Genghis Khan" - the ocean-like Great Khan.
But this is just the beginning. His cavalry went south to conquer the central capital of the Jin Dynasty, and his western expedition swept across Khwarezm, reaching the edge of Europe. Behind the glory is the undercurrent of sweat within the Golden Family, and a snow-capped mountain dialogue with the Changchun master about life, death and the meaning of conquest.
This is the story of how an orphan forged suffering into the cornerstone of an empire. Open this book and see how a heart abandoned in the wilderness beats into a storm that sweeps the world.
