Mongols as Villians

The Mongols were some of the most innovative and intelligent people of their time. They were also some of the most vicious and barbaric villains of the 13th century. With genius war tactics and fearless warriors, they were the most advanced villains of their time period. Using cruel methods of punishment, such as boiling their warriors, showed clear evidence of barbaric activity. While using those cruel methods they also had intelligent ways of biological warfare such as catapulting plague ridden bodies over the walls of Caffa at the Siege of 1346. While many of their actions were truly barbaric, they were very successful in conquering most of China. Although they were most definitely not heroes, they were much more successful in war and conquering seeing that they conquered more land in 25 years than the Romans did in 400 years. Genghis Khan was loved mostly by peasants and the poor solely because he was able to give them more riches. He treated them very well. Because the majority of people in that time period were poor, he was loved more than he was hated. The rich hated him because he took their money and other riches for his own profit. Genghis Khan’s army of Mongols was greatly known for their advanced abilities in archery. They were also successful in biological warfare during the Siege of Caffa in 1346 were they catapulted dead plague ridden bodies of animals and human over their borders. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Mongols were known for boiling defeated khans rather than killing them by swords. This was known as one of the most cruel and most painful ways to die. The Mongols were very intelligent in their warfare tactics which is what made them such notable villains of that time period. They were a very adaptable group of warriors as we can see that during their siege over Caffa. Even though they had never seen a castle with such a wall, they were quickly able to figure out a way to conquer. They also became very good at siege warfare by
