In those turbulent moments, there will always be a fearless hero who rises to turn things around, rescues the people from hardship, maintains social stability, wins the admiration of the world, is known as a legend on the battlefield, and is even revered as the god of war.
Despite the brutality of war, it has ignited the hearts of countless brave men who have pursued martial arts and longed to write glory in their flesh and blood to go down in history. To this day, among the three worldly recognized gods of war, what is surprising is that the chief is actually the descendants of China.
The story behind this is worth going deeper. Although Napoleon is famous, but in such a ranking, the Chinese actually occupy the first place, how glorious and unique is this?
Despite Napoleon's impressive military exploits in the Western world, he seems to have been slightly inferior to the Chinese legend. Next, let's take a closer look at this extraordinary Chinese historical figure, whose deeds are probably well known.

Known as a symbol of France's military exploits and authority, Napoleon was once prominent, but he only ruled for ten years, ranking third in history, inferior to the true war giant. So, who is coming in second place?
The answer is revealed: Alexander, the legendary figure of BC and the proud son of the Macedonian kingdom. His wisdom was forged by Aristotle's teachings, and he was the first of the four great military giants of Europe, whose leadership and military prowess swept Greece, and then the Middle East and Egypt, with an ambition unparalleled.
Among the three top war gods recognized in the world, the top of the list is a Chinese, that is Genghis Khan, known as "a generation of heavenly pride". Yuan Taizu Temujin, born in 1162, was a Mongol nobleman, and his ascension to the throne in 1206 began his glorious expedition.
His great achievements included the conquest of Liao, Western Xia, Jin and many other small states, thus unifying the Central Plains and establishing his immortal position in the history of world warfare.
His continual expeditions swept through Central Asia and Western Europe, including Hungary and Poland. advance northward to the Russian border; It marched eastward to the Korean Peninsula and then south into Java and Indochina.

According to statistics, Genghis Khan's empire reached a staggering 35 million square kilometers, which is seven times the area conquered by Alexander, fully demonstrating his unparalleled military talent.
It is indisputable that he is the first of the three gods of war recognized in the world, and he deserves his name.
To sum up, these three military geniuses are unique in the long history by virtue of their personal intelligence. Napoleon, Alexander, and Genghis Khan undoubtedly drove the wheel of history, but while they fought in all directions, they also brought heavy suffering to the people.
However, the leap of any era comes with a price, and they light the way forward as the bright stars of the era. In the future, there may be more shining new stars leading the way, which is full of possibilities and unknowns.
