Let us begin 37 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: back in Mongolian times. No, we're not talking about World 38 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: War two today. You're just gonna have to be patient. 39 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: I'll get there eventually. But we're going clear back to 40 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: the twelve hundreds. We're going back to the time of 41 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: the Mongols. This isn't really the kind of Mongol story 42 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: you're used to today, though. This is past Genghis Khan's time. 43 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: We are now in the era of Kublai Khan. Who 44 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: was Kublai Khan, Well, he was Genghis Khan's grandson. And 45 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: remember this for those unfamiliar or new to the show, 46 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: or new to Mongol stuff, Remember the Mongols were just 47 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: a people who lived on the nomadic Asian step. They 48 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: just bounced around, they hunted, they herded their animals. They 49 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: were really good warriors, but just kind of a small group, disjointed, 50 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: always fighting each other. Then along cames this man, one 51 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: of the great leaders of all time, Genghis Khan, unites 52 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: them all and now this small group of fighters is 53 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: the greatest army in the history of mankind. And they 54 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: swarm through everybody and cut through all of them like 55 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: a blowtorch through butter, every one of them. China was 56 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: always number one on their list, though Genghis Khan hated China, 57 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: blame China for a lot of things, and they were 58 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: constantly I mean they had some failures there early on, 59 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: but for the most part, they were just constantly slaughtering 60 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: Chinese people. It is amazing. I didn't realize. We actually 61 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: did a story yesterday on China about how about the 62 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: floods where millions of them died, and Genghis Khan killed 63 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: millions of them, and Mao killed like fifty million of them. 64 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: It really is a story of tragedy over there, if 65 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: you think about it. But I'm not going to get 66 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: sidetracked here. Eventually Genghis dies, Sun dies. I'm not going 67 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: to go through all the lines of succession, but Kublai 68 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: Khan takes over, and we are not past the era 69 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: of Mongol conquests. Because these guys felt it was their 70 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: god given right to rule everything under the sky, they did, 71 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: That's just what they believed. They believed Genghis had a 72 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: vision from God or the gods of their religions, really weird, 73 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: they had shamans and stuff like that, but they believe 74 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: he had a vistry from the gods that they were 75 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: supposed to rule everything under the sky. By the time 76 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: Kublai takes over, there's still he's dealing with, you know, 77 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: the Sung dynasty, the Southern Chinese dynasty, but they're on 78 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: the way out. It's it's basically, the Mongols have it 79 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: all now. They pretty much have it all, including Korea, 80 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: and if you look at a map, you see what 81 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: the Mongols own all the Middle East, all the mass 82 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: all the Asian step Mongol they all that, China, Korea. 83 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: Only people with the conquering mind set. Remember I talked 84 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: to you about communists today. They think like this. People 85 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: with the conquering mindset don't look at everything they have. 86 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: They look at everything they don't have yet. That's just 87 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: how they think. You you pull up a map right 88 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: now koop Blai Khan's Mongolian Empire, and you'd be like, 89 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: oh my word, um, it's huge. Who could want more? 90 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 1: Koplai Khan would look and probably did, look at a 91 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: map like that and only see, well, why have we 92 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: Why have we taken that? Yet? It's huge, isn't I see? 93 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: Jewish producer Christians looked it up. It's enormous. He looks 94 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: at that different than you and I look at that. 95 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: He looks at it and he thinks, Okay, we've got 96 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: some stuff to the north southern. Wait a minute, Wait 97 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: a minute, why haven't we taken Japan? Does anyone know 98 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: why we haven't taken Japan? Bob, do you know why 99 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: we haven't taken Japanda? That's all he sees, that's all 100 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: he can focus on. And the Mongols were famous for 101 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: a certain type of diplomacy, a bit bold. You had 102 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: better be a great warrior if you choose this type 103 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: of diplomacy. But they would send out envoys, and the 104 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: reason they're envoys were routinely killed by opposing rulers is 105 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: the message they would bring. They would walk into a king, 106 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: an emperor, whatever, a sultan, a show gun like me, Chris. 107 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: They would walk in and they would simply say, oh, hey, 108 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: I have good news. You are now a subject to 109 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: the Great Khan, bow and give tribute to him. You're 110 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: now under his kingdom, and if you refuse, you all 111 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: be killed. That there was no there were very few 112 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: niceties that they would walk in and that's simply how 113 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: they conducted business. Only by this point in time, remember 114 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: we're past the Genghis Khan era where he I mean 115 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: he killed forty million people with the sword in a 116 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: bow and arrow. His armies did wiped out the strongest 117 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: empires on earth easily, like, with barely a challenge, wiped 118 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: them all out. That reputation has spread around the known 119 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: world at this point. And now when you even see 120 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: a Mongolian envoy on the horizon, they say it would 121 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: strike fear in the heart of rulers everywhere because you 122 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: know what's coming. They're never coming just to say, hey, Bob, 123 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: just wanted to know, you need to bow any eggs 124 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: or anything. You let me know, all right, I'm your neighbor. 125 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: They're never bringing that message. They're bringing the message of 126 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: your a subject or you're dead. Now. In the Mongol's defense, 127 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: I have to say, being a Mongolian subject really wasn't 128 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: that bad. They had good rulers and bad rulers, but 129 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: I mean they would like Kublai Khan. He was famous 130 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: for starting his own government branch that focused solely on 131 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: rooting out the corruption within his government. He would find 132 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: corrupt tax collectors who were taking too many taxes from 133 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: the peasants, he'd kill him. He wanted his people to 134 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: be happy, and look, they were religiously tolerant. He had 135 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: Christian churches. He had, he had why can't I think 136 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: of the name about he had mosques he had. Everybody 137 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: was welcome. It really wasn't that bad. And nobody could 138 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: touch you. I mean, after all, you were under the 139 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: protection of the Mongols. Nobody would touch you. Who would 140 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: who would even dream of it? So being under the 141 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: Mongolian flag. Wasn't all that bad. But you generally don't 142 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: get to be a king, sultan, or emperor by having 143 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: a great deal of humility or having any desire to 144 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: be number two to anybody. And that is the nature 145 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: of man. It's certainly the history of man. I often 146 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: wonder this, Well, I'm obviously I'm an ambitious person myself, 147 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: want my son's to be ambitious. I don't want to 148 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: be number two. At the same time, number two ain't 149 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: a bad life. We're gonna talk about that. We're gonna 150 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: talk about this battle between Mongolia and Japan, and you're 151 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: about to be mandated to get a COVID test.

That whole game stopped stock market thing was 171 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: outstanding for the United States of America, and I'll tell 172 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: you why here in just a little bit. First, though, 173 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: Kublai Khan is now running the Mongolian Empire. He's moved 174 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: the capital to China, had a bunch of Chinese advisors, 175 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: had Muslim advisors, had Mongolian advisors. He has a vast 176 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: empire to rule now, but still he believes he's supposed 177 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: to rule everything under the sun. He focuses on Japan. Now, 178 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: let's go over to Japan for a moment before we 179 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: get to those envoys we were talking about. Japan is 180 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: a complicated place right now, one that I don't understand 181 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: all the way, and I've tried to understand it. I mean, 182 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: at this point in history. The best way I can 183 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: describe it, and this is going to sound so incredibly lame, 184 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: the best way I can describe it is essentially a 185 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: night system, a feudal lords system, where they have an emperor, 186 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: and don't get me wrong, the emperor is huge, and 187 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: then they have the military commander of the company of 188 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: the country who's under the emperor kind of but he 189 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: has all the military for He's called, of course showgun. 190 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: That's the show gun. But then we have different states, provinces. 191 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how I can describe them to make 192 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: it make sense, but you have lords in charge of 193 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: these provinces. That's in general how the country is set up, 194 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: and they're fighting each other all the time. It is 195 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: a treacherous place, assassination attempts, so on and so forth. However, 196 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: they do have one thing that greatly great well, they 197 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: have several things. I love Japan, but they have one 198 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: thing that greatly aids them, and that is an emphatic 199 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: warrior culture. That Samurai stuff was taken very very very 200 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: seriously physical training, military training, and they're fighting all the time. 201 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: This is not a country you're just gonna stroll into 202 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: and start pushing people around. They know how to fight there, 203 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: but the Mongolians are not exactly unaccustomed to facing warrior societies, 204 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: and they're accustomed to slaughtering them all. Hubali does what 205 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: he has always done, what all the Mongolian cons have done. 206 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: He sends his envoys over to Japan and as a 207 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: submit or die the Japanese showgun. At the time, he 208 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: was eighteen years old, which is astounding. His name was Hojo. 209 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: He is a little nervous. Like I said, he knew 210 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: what that meant. He sends the envoys away without an answer. 211 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: He can't say yes because they're not going to submit 212 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: to the Mongols. He doesn't want to say no because 213 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: while they're not going to submit to the Mongols, he 214 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily want to poke Kublai Khan and the Ribs. 215 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: On the way out the door, He's like, ah, just 216 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: go away, but we'll send you an email. Don't worry 217 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: about it. But he knows what's coming now, and of 218 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: course the envoys returned to Kublai and tell him he 219 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: didn't give us an answer for the Mongols. That's as 220 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: good as declaring war. What do you mean he didn't 221 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: bow down and kiss your feet right away? Gather it up, boys, 222 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: we're out of here. Hojo eighteen or not as smart 223 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: enough to know what's coming. So he sends messages all 224 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: over the country to those lords who all have troops 225 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: underneath them. I need them, and I need them now, 226 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: and he begins to line up his troops on the 227 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: western shore of Japan. If you look at a map 228 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: and realize the Mongols will be coming from Korea, which 229 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,479 Speaker 1: they had already concert conquered by this time, you'll understand 230 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: very well why he was lining them up on the 231 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: western shore. In fact, a map of the Japan Korea 232 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: thing is going to help you greatly because there's a 233 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: couple islands in between. They're going to play a small 234 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: role in the story today. And they have the same 235 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: name today that they did back then. So that's what's coming, 236 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: and he knows it's coming. But something that gets lost 237 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: on us today, it certainly gets lost on me, is time. 238 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: How fast everything moves today. I live. Shoot, I've never 239 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: actually never even mapped it. I think I live thirty 240 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: or forty miles from the studio. Probably give your take 241 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: thirty or forty miles. I was at work today in 242 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. Thirty or forty miles in most of the 243 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: history of mankind is a day's ride. That's if you 244 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: have a horse. If you don't have a horse, two 245 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: three days, it's going to take you to get there. 246 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: If I wanted to speak to Chris this morning before 247 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: the show, which Lord knows I did not, but sometimes 248 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: I have to. If I wanted to speak to Chris 249 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: before the show, how long would it take me to 250 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: get a message to Chris well, as fast as my 251 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: thumbs could hammer out a little text on my phone, 252 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: And how soon would he get it? Oh about a 253 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: nano second after I hit seen depending on his phone 254 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: service for most of human history. If I wanted to 255 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: get a message to Jewish producer Chris and he was 256 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,959 Speaker 1: thirty miles away, that's a day. That's a day to 257 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: get him the message. I need another day if he 258 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: responds right away to get the message back to me. 259 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: It's just we don't have an excellent concept of how 260 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: long things used to take. How long did it take? 261 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: Kublai Khan to gather up all the forces he needed. 262 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: Granted he wasn't in a huge hurry. He just kind 263 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: of made a note on the side, Oh, okay, Japan's 264 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: going down. He still was dealing with a couple things 265 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: in the south. How long did it take him to 266 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: get ready? Five years? Five years after this point in time, 267 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: Japan is sitting and watching and waiting. And during this 268 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: point they're getting messages back from the ports in places 269 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: like Korea saying, oh, yeah, they're gathering. The Mongols are gathering. Definitely, 270 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: you better be ready. But they're gathering. And now he's 271 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: getting as many troops as he can there, and there's 272 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: a ton of fear throughout Japanese society. We will never 273 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: understand what it would be like to have the Mongols 274 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 1: coming for you. But during this day and age, like 275 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: I talked about earlier, you knew what it meant if 276 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: the Mongols were coming. You knew you were very likely 277 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: all gonna die, and for like the women and children. Honestly, 278 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: you're lucky. If all that's all that happened was you die. 279 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: It was not good. It was not good at all. 280 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: The Mongols do gather. The Mongols gather nine hundred ships 281 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: forty thousand troops and they set sail. And if you 282 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: have looked at that map for the area between Korea 283 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: and Japan, you will see an island, a big one, Shushima. 284 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: I maybe saying that wrong. Shushima Island starts with a 285 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: team butt Shushima Island. Japan had a small defense force there. 286 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: The Mongols land on Shushima Island and ripped through them 287 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: like nothing. Then there's a smaller island called Ikey Island 288 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: between Shushima Island and Japan. You can see it if 289 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: you zoom in on your map. They had a small 290 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: defense force. The Mongols land there, and they had a 291 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: bunch of Samurai on Ikey Island. And the Samurai didn't 292 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: they didn't act like the other troops the Mongols had faced. 293 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: These guys fought until they had nothing left. And these 294 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: guys fought very, very well. And they say they put 295 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: up such a fight this small defense force on Ikey 296 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: Island that the Mongols were furious and a little bit 297 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: weary by the time they left. Of how many of 298 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: these Samurai are going to be waiting for us on Japan. 299 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: Because these dudes can roll, I mean samurai could roll, 300 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: but they sail on. They sail on and they get 301 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: to a place and I'm going to screw up this. 302 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: Do not send me emails. I went to community college, 303 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: Hakata Bay. That's probably fairly closed. Hakata Bay. They land, 304 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: they take the city of Hakata, and then they find 305 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: out what the Samurai are all about. The samurai launched 306 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: this huge attack. How's that go? Well, you're gonna have 307 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: to stand by and wait on a samurai versus mongols thing. 308 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: I'll get to that in a second, and we're gonna 309 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: get to Chick fil A saving the day again. Hang on, 310 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: No word in the English language is less convincing than probably. 311 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our 312 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: first set? Sure? We'll probably stay together. Probably. It's been 313 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: twenty three minutes since I ate. I can probably swim. 314 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: You should wait thirty minutes, Okay, I don't tell me 315 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: what to do. Candid b scramp. I have a cramp. 316 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 1: I can probably hit the green from here. Probably, can 317 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: I get a Mulligan ready to go? Hey? Are you 318 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: sure you're okay to drive? Yeah? I'm pretty sober. Yeah, 319 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: I'm probably okay. Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it 320 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: comes to drinking and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, 321 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: a car, or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. 322 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 1: A message brought to you by NITZA and AD Council. 323 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's gonna be a great day. There's so 324 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: much awesome stuff, this stock market stuff that happened with 325 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: the game stop thing. This is great for America, great 326 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: for America. And I will explain why here in just 327 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: a few But you know, I'm not done yet. We 328 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: just had Mongols landing on the shore of Japan squaring 329 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 1: off against Samurai. We're not we can't stop yet. The 330 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: Mongols land. The Mongols are famously organized in discipline. Remember 331 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: this concept of toughness is so overrated. Obviously you want 332 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: to be tough, but like I said, the great line 333 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: from that movie Man on Fire, there's no such thing 334 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 1: as tough. There's trained and there's untrained. The Mongols were 335 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: the greatest army in the world, not because each individual 336 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: Mongol was tougher than the other guy. Because they trained 337 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: and trained and trained and trained, and they fought together. 338 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: They were always together, orders together, speed, everything done at 339 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: the same time. So the Mongols were better at that 340 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: the Samurai. While they were outstanding fighters and fanatically brave. 341 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: Were used to fighting as individuals on the battlefield. It 342 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: was a matter of honor. You fight, you against another samurai. 343 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: Let's square off, let's have a fight with our katanas, 344 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: which we're gonna get. Let's do all these things. So 345 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: it puts them in a disadvantage. But the Mongols are 346 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: seeing something with the Samurai. These people it's like they 347 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: it's like they want to die. They just throw themselves 348 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: into the Mongols. The Mongols are used to everybody at 349 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: some point breaking and running. These Samurai are not breaking 350 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: and running. If anything, they're breaking and running at them. 351 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: They're they're they're nuts. The Samurai eventually do walk their 352 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: way back to a fortified position, and the Mongols, for 353 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 1: like the first time in human history, actually don't pursue 354 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: because they've taken such a lick. Now they've won. They 355 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: killed the Samurai, they won the battle. They were the 356 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: superior fighting for us, but they took so many casualties. 357 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: They were like, you know, we're not We're not going 358 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: after them in the fort right now. Let's take a 359 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: night on the boat. Let's go back to the boats. 360 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: We just landed on the beach, we got some sword 361 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: wounds over here. Let's get some people patched up. We'll regroup, 362 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: rethink this, try this again tomorrow. They go back to 363 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: the boats and a massive storm comes in that night 364 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: and sinks a third of the fleet, White being out 365 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,479 Speaker 1: thousands of Mongolian troops. Now they know they can still 366 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: pursue this battle they want, but they know it would 367 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: be stupid and what's the rush. Japan ain't going anywhere, 368 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: so they pack up their stuff and leave Japan. Hojo 369 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: he's not an idiot. He knows they're coming back. These 370 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 1: are the Mongols. They're coming back. And what does he do. 371 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: He builds a gigantic wall along the western shore. He 372 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: begins to amass a massive amount of military people, training, 373 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: he's spending on equipment. He is fortifying Japan with troops 374 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: and troops and troops and training. He's solidifying his hold 375 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: on power as he's doing all these things. And Kublai, 376 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: he has a couple of rebellions popping up. He can't 377 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: return it away, so this takes some time. In the meantime, though, 378 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: wants to let Japan know he hasn't forgotten about them. 379 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: Kublai keeps sending envoys saying we're coming back. Better submit now. 380 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: Only now Hojo's not playing the game of just sending 381 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: them away anymore. Hojo keeps chopping the heads off the 382 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: envoys of the Mongols, and Kublai keeps sending them. And 383 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 1: you know, I've often thought about this. How do you 384 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: feel if you're like the third or fourth envoy heading 385 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: over to Japan and you've just been given orders. I mean, 386 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: technically you're a Mongol envoy, you should be treated like 387 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,959 Speaker 1: a saint. But you know you're sailing into the country 388 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 1: that just keeps lopping off the heads of people bringing 389 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: your message, do you I always, I really do wonder. 390 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: I know this is a nerty little detail. I really 391 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: do wonder if they were trying to be a little 392 00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: nicer as they walked in than the previous envoy. A Hey, Joe, 393 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: how you been, Bud, big fan of how you've decorated 394 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: the place. I just want to tell you, I don't 395 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: want to be here. All right, this is I think 396 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: you're great, absolutely great, but you still have to submitter. 397 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: You're gonna die ship head gone. I wonder that sometimes, 398 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: I know it's terrible. Eventually Kublai realizes, Okay, these guys 399 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: aren't coming back. He just stopped sending envoys. Well, now 400 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: the Mongols are not gathering forty thousand men to go 401 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: take on Japan. Now now they're upset one. Their pride 402 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: is wounded from before two. You made the mistake of 403 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: killing a Mongolian envoy. We've talked about it before. The 404 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: terrible things that they will do to you if you 405 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: kill their envoys. They do not like that. Do not 406 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: put your hands on a Mongolian envoy. This time, the 407 00:28:55,320 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: Mongols gather up one hundred and twenty thousand men, four 408 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: thousand ships, and they start sailing east and once again 409 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: they land on Shushima, that bigger island, and Japan had 410 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: refortified it with more troops. And once again the Mongols 411 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: tore through them and beat them. And they kept sailing 412 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: east and landed on Ikey once again and found more 413 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: fortifications and they tore through them. Then they make their 414 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: way once again back over to Hakada Bay. They see 415 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: the wall Japan has built. They do see a place 416 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: they believe they can get through and flank the Japanese. 417 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: The Mongols land, remember an amphibious landing as we've talked about. 418 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: The four talked about before is extremely, extremely difficult and hazardous. 419 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: You have the waves, you don't have the supplies, you 420 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: don't have room to dig in, you don't. It's very difficult, amphibious. 421 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: Landings are very difficult. The Mongols land, they take off 422 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: for this part of the wall, this area where they 423 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: think they're gonna get around and flank the Japanese, and 424 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: once again, the Japanese, only now there are more of them, 425 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: throw themselves into the Mongols to keep themselves from getting flanked, 426 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: because frankly, if the Mongols get through that at this 427 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: point in time, it's over. It's the Mongolian army. They're 428 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: going to swarm you. They're gonna finish you. The Japanese 429 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: swarm in. At the end of the day, it's it's 430 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: a draw. The Mongols do not get through, but they decide, 431 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, okay, let's let's catch our breath here. They 432 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: had another small force coming on boats. Let's retreat back 433 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: west to Shushima, regroup there, and then we will turn 434 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: around and come back and let's have one final big 435 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: battle and finish off these dirty Samurai once and for all. 436 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: They go back to Shushima, boom. Disease hits almost immediately, 437 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: killing three thousand of them. Okay, not the end of 438 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: the world, not the end of the world at all. 439 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: That Mongols are not unaccustomed to disease. They'll figure their 440 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: way around this, and then, well, life is funny sometimes. 441 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: You and I I mean even now in America, if 442 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: you're on the right, you have this feeling of, I mean, gosh, 443 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: impending doom is such an over the top way of 444 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: putting it. Impending, but you have this ominous feeling, right Chris, 445 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: I'm not wrong about it. You know what I'm talking about. 446 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: There's this feeling and I'm probably going to reinforce some 447 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: of that today. There's this feeling of, oh, man, we 448 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: are we are heading into some very hard times, and 449 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: there's a feeling of there's nothing I can do to 450 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: stop it. And Japan I want you to understand, they understood, oh, 451 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna fight, We'll fight to the last man. It 452 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: was their culture to fight to the last man, as 453 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: people would find out later, but they knew, oh, there's 454 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: nothing we can do to stop it. But life is 455 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: funny sometimes. I'll explain just how funny it is in 456 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: just a second and then we'll get to the stock 457 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: market thing being awesome.

Yeah, the experts keep telling us 476 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: that wearing masks is really about protecting our cell, protecting 477 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: others from ourselves in the event that we are contagious. 478 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: But you know, if other people aren't wearing their masks, 479 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: or they're wearing them improperly, we need to protect ourselves. 480 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: So experts say you can double up with a tight 481 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: weave fabric mask for added protection. Now, Virginia Tech researchers 482 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: found that doubling up these cloth masks increases the efficacy 483 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: from fifty to seventy five percent. A three layer mask 484 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: could walk up to nine of the particles air. Shep, Yeah, 485 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: the expert, all three masks? Why not eighty? I want 486 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: to be super safe. Oh gosh, all right, all right, 487 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to all the news of the day 488 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 1: here in just a second. I do have to explain, 489 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: really briefly, why did the Mongols, because we actually had 490 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: somebody called in an asked her in the break, why 491 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: the Mongols go clear back to Shushima when they were 492 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: going to the boats to regroup. Oh, it's funny you 493 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: should ask. I probably should have sprinkled this in in 494 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: the beginning. Initially the Mongols just went right back to 495 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: their boats again. They were just in the bay. You 496 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: know except what you're dealing with Samurai. Now, Samurai play offense. 497 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: You see, while the Mongols were asleep on their gigantic 498 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 1: boats in Hakata Bay, the Samurai, only a few at 499 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: a time, loaded themselves in these small little boats and 500 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 1: snuck out in the middle of the night, and they 501 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,919 Speaker 1: would sneak onto the Mongolian boats and knife a bunch 502 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: of sleeping Mongols to death, and then would sneak back 503 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: onto their little boats and sail away. They kept sneaking 504 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: in in the night and murdering Mongols in their sleep. 505 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: The Mongols were so tired of this constant harassment and 506 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: terror it was causing the troops that they that's why 507 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 1: they backed off to Shushima. Anyway, disease comes. Mongols are 508 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: there getting ready to finish storm in Japan, and then 509 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: they say, according to the legend, a little cloud is 510 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: seen on the horizon, and it starts to grow, and 511 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: it starts to grow, and it starts to grow, and 512 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: soon there is a storm of the century that sweeps 513 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,840 Speaker 1: through this Mongolian fleet of four thousand ships, one hundred 514 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 1: and twenty thousand men, and it wipes out eighty percent 515 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: of the Mongolian force to the bottom of the ocean. 516 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: They say they had less than two hundred of the 517 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: four thousand ships left by the time the storm was done. 518 00:36:55,120 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: Now that's not really the story. Obviously Japan was saved 519 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: that day. It created It did a long long It 520 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 1: went a long way to creating the environment in Japan 521 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 1: that caused them to commit atrocities in World War Two. 522 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: Why well, the military didn't get the credit. The Samurai 523 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: didn't get the credit for the victory. The religious people 524 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: got the credit for the victory because they said, well, look, 525 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: obviously God or whatever, I'm not going to go into 526 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: their god stuff. But obviously the Almighty did this, not 527 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: the military guys. So now the military guys have this victory. 528 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: They have no pay, they have no spoils because they 529 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: didn't conquer anything, and now you have this huge military 530 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: in your country. It really kept Japan divided, and the 531 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: fact the Mongols tried to invade really pushed Japan into 532 00:37:55,200 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: a long period of isolation. Japan wouldn't let anybody in 533 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: for centuries. They were basically discovered. I think it was 534 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 1: in the eighteen hundreds. That may be wrong. Seventeen or 535 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds. They were discovered. I forget what the date 536 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: was by an American captain, and he landed, and he 537 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: thought he had landed. He thought he'd gone back in time. 538 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: Why did Japan commit all those atrocities in World War two? 539 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: To our guys, Well, they had isolated themselves for so long. 540 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: They were behind the times and didn't know it. In 541 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: Japan's eyes, they didn't commit atrocities in World War two. 542 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: That was that was how warfare was done. I don't 543 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: understand what happened. Well, what happened is the same thing 544 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: that happens to all of us, the same thing that 545 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: happens to every nation. What happened was time and times change. 546 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: It's hard when you live in the moment, when you've 547 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: lived under one culture, country, government, lived under one set 548 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: of values for so long, it's hard to wrap your 549 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: mind around the fact that throughout history people have had 550 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: to exist waking up one day and finding out the 551 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 1: whole world has passed them by, and they didn't realize 552 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: it had passed them by, that times had changed. And 553 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: that's what you're seeing right now. I saw this headline 554 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: this morning, Paul.
