Why was southern china, the more economically abundant portion of china, unable to retake the north despite its immense industrial capability and technological advances in gunnery?
Before the mass adoption of firearms levelled the playing field war legitimately was "strongest man wins", and steppe peoples raised on milk, meat, and malevolence are always going to btfo malnutritioned rice-fed peasants.
>>18448267Mongols conquered Daili for the sole purpose of flanking the Song on the strategic scale. Song had no chance. Not to mention the entirety of the North betrayed their homeland and pledged their shipbuilding and siege expertise to the Mongols (which by now had Persian and Arabic know-how). Maybe if the Song court wasn't as corrupt as modern India they might have survived but with Dali taken and the Song population choosing to immediately surrender at times and switch sides, it was a lost cause.

>>18448339Mongols and Manchus are both are shorter than Han Chinese. Inner Mongolia is taller than Outer Mongolia because its filled with northern HanLook at the map itself moron, Outer Mongolia (which is 99% ethnic Mongol) has a shorter height than Shandong Han and you have the gall to lie and claim Mongols and Manchus are the tallest people in China?Mongols (Outer Mongolia) and Manchus (Beijing) are both midgets compared to Shandong Han (Shandong and most of Jilin, Heilongjiang and Liaoning are filled with Shandong Han settlers).https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_human_height_by_countryGenghis Khan purged tall Mongol men when he was uniting Mongol tribes.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_against_the_linchpin>Genghis Khan used this brutal method against Jamukha's coalition of tribes in 1202. All male captives were forced to walk beside a wagon wheel. If their heads were higher than the linchpin (a pin inserted at the end of the axle) they were immediately executed. The wagon wheel was a large wheel used to transport yurts and other goods. This technique was probably used to preempt against revenge attacks that were common between tribes at this time. If one tribe were to attack another, there was always the possibility that there would be a revenge attack soon after. By eliminating the older males, there was less chance of a counterattack from tribes that were in perpetual conflict due to centuries of distrust and robbery.This picture of tall nomads are actually Kazakhs, not Mongols. Kazakhs are literally mongrel mutt rapebabies of Mongol men raping Turkic Kipchak Cuman Indo-European Caucasian women. Kazakhs have paternal Mongol Y Haplogroup C2 while they have maternal Indo-European Caucasian mtdna haplogroups.A Kazakh is to a Mongol as to what a Mestizo Latino Hispanic is to a Spaniard. They got their paternal ancestry from violent conquest and rape of the local women so their maternal ancestry is different but their paternal is the same.

>>18448361https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Labour_CorpsThe Chinese Labour Corps comprised Chinese men who came mostly from Shandong province,[6] and to a lesser extent from Liaoning, Jilin, Jiangsu, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Gansu provinces.[3] The first transport ship carrying 1,088 labourers sailed from the main depot at Weihaiwei on 18 January 1917. The journey to France took three months.[7]

>>18448267>and technological advances in gunnery?The Song emperors originated in northern China and their guns were developed in northern China during the Northern Song.Song gunpowder war manual Wujing Zongyao was written in 1044 in northern China for the Northern Song emperorThe Song took its technical experts South but northern China maintained its knowledge of gunpowder technology and gunpowder weapons were inherited by northern Han soldiers in the Jin and by northern Han serving in the Mongol army.
