Chapter 41 Da Zhasa

"Great Zhasa" is the constitution of the Great Mongol Kingdom. Since Genghis Khan founded the Great Mongol Kingdom, after more than 20 years of continuous improvement and revision, it has finally become the Magna Carta of the Mongol Empire. The first sentence of "Da Zhasa" is full of blood and rain: those who do not obey Da Zhasa, kill! The second sentence is: There is only one invisible emperor in the sky, and there is only one Khan on the earth, and the only Khan is Genghis Khan. Citizens must fulfill their obligations: "The vocation of the Mongols is to come at my call, follow my orders, and kill whoever I refer to." Treasures, make the enemy's subjects groan in pain, gallop on the enemy's fat horse..."

This article in "Da Zhasa" is similar to the following story.The story says that Genghis Khan asked his comrades what was the greatest joy in life.Some say it's conquering the world, some say it's hunting, and others say it's watching wild beasts and wolves run wild.Genghis Khan said: "I think the greatest joy in life is to hunt down your enemies everywhere, take away their BMWs, plunder their property, watch their wives and children cry beside their corpses, and finally possess them." Serious people will think that Genghis Khan's ideal is perverted, but it is undeniable that this ideal is hidden in the darkest part of everyone's heart. The difference between us and Genghis Khan is that we do not have the ability to realize it.

Then, he talked about the importance of "Da Zhasa": "In any nation, the son does not respect the father's teaching, the brother does not listen to the elder brother, the husband does not believe in the wife's chastity, the wife does not obey the husband's wishes, the elder does not protect the young, and the young Do not take the lesson of their elders... Such a people, thieves, liars, enemies, and all kinds of swindlers will shade the sun over their camps, that is to say, they will be robbed and their horses and their herds will be deprived Tranquility..." Therefore, Genghis Khan asked everyone in the palace and the mansion to abide by the "Great Zhasa" unconditionally: "If the dignitaries and warriors who belong to the monarch do not strictly abide by the laws, the country will shake and stand still. When they want to find Genghis Khan , can no longer be found.”

In terms of the national system, the "Grand Zhasa" clearly stipulates that the leader of the country shall be elected by the Kuriltai Assembly, otherwise it will be invalid.One of the most important and most touching regulations is that any religion should be respected, and no religion should be privileged.This is the theoretical guarantee for the Great Mongolia to sweep the earth in the future. In terms of social management system, "Da Zhasa" has established a household registration system. Everyone belongs to ten households, one hundred households and one thousand households, and undertakes hard labor.

In terms of military law, "Da Zhasa" has established a hunting-based military training system. There is a very interesting article: after the hunting is over, the disabled, young and female prey must be released.This is for rehunting next year. Regarding the period of war, there is a rule that the two countries should declare war before going to war, and declare to the enemy's soldiers and civilians: "If you obey, you will be treated well and peacefully; if you resist, only Changsheng will know the consequences, not us. Anticipation." This is the source of the theory behind the Mongolian army's massacre of the city. For those who did not surrender, they only acted according to the will of Changshengtian.Genghis Khan said that Changshengtian's will was to kill them all.

"Great Zhasa" ensured the stability of Genghis Khan's Great Mongolian Kingdom and brought ideal lights to the grassland people. It made Genghis Khan's people closely unite around it in strict order, making the Great Mongolian Kingdom a solid piece of steel. Become a dragon that can go to the sky and enter the earth. In the eyes of ancient Chinese emperors, Genghis Khan's khuriltai meeting in 1206 was nothing more than an ordinary enthronement ceremony.The Great Mongolian Kingdom established by Genghis Khan was unprecedented on the Mongolian grasslands, and its significance is no less than that of the Great Qin Empire established by Ying Zheng as a dictatorship.Before him, no one had ever considered a monarchy in this way.We are not sure where Genghis Khan's wisdom came from, maybe it was influenced by the Kingdom of Jin, or maybe it was in his character.

In addition to the dictatorship of the monarchy, we also noticed the grassroots democracy in the Great Mongolia.As we said earlier, the leaders of ten and one hundred households are elected by the people at the bottom, which creates a lively atmosphere at the bottom and makes it easier for them to have an enterprising spirit. Since then, the Mongolian Kingdom of Genghis Khan, as Yelu Chucai said, went to the sky and went to the sea, and there was no force on the earth that could stop the Mongolian cavalry.
