In 1215, Genghis Khan (Temuchin) of the Mongols finally penetrated the Great Wall and took over northern China after four years of continuous attacks. The Mongols were the only invaders to ever have defeated China after the Great Wall was built.China's Great Wall has been pierced by Genghis Khan, the Manchus, and now, allegedly, a couple of construction workers named Zheng and Wang who wanted a shortcut.A 38-year-old man named Zheng and a 55-year-old woman named Wang caused "irreversible damage" when they used an excavator to widen a gap in the wall on Aug. 24, according to a press release from the Youyu County Public Security Bureau.
How was the Great Wall breached : ANSWER: The wall proved quite effective when maintained and garrisoned; however, at different times throughout history, it was breached because of treachery, disrepair, lack of troops, and tactical blunders. The relatively short distance between towers allowed communication through such means as beacons and runners.
Did the Mongols ever lose
While the Mongols and the Mamluks both suffered significant losses, the Mamluks managed to slaughter almost the entire Mongol Horde, including General Ketbuqa. This defeat forced the Mongols back to Iran and solidified the western Mongol border.
Was the Great Wall ever Destroyed : It was built starting in 220 B.C., when China had its first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, and it was rebuilt at various periods, according to UNESCO. The wall seen by most tourists was built in the Ming Dynasty; it is also known as the Ming Great Wall. But in recent years, some parts of the wall have been demolished.
Although a useful deterrent against raids, at several points throughout its history the Great Wall failed to stop enemies, including in 1644 when the Qing troops marched through the gates of the Shanhai Pass and replaced the most ardent of the wall-building dynasties, the Ming, as rulers of China proper. And still Genghis Khan waited until, in early summer 1215, with the populace at breaking point, he ordered his men to storm the city. The walls were scaled, the defenders overcome, and what followed was utter annihilation.
Was the Great Wall of China ruined
Investigators called the historic site “severely damaged.” When investigators arrived at the UNESCO World Heritage site, they spotted tire treads in the dirt, leading them to determine that the ancient wall was damaged by large machinery, but were initially unable to find the culprit.The Great Wall has long faced the dual threats of erosion and human activity, with locals stealing bricks to use as construction materials or to sell, and in more recent times, tourists etching carvings into the stone.As a result of a number of overwhelming victories in the field and a few successes in the capture of fortifications deep within China, Genghis had conquered and consolidated Jin territory as far south as the Great Wall by 1213. They didn't suffer a real defeat until more than 60 years into the conquest at the Battle of Ain Jalut, near the Sea of Galilee — at the hands of the Mamluks. The Mongols' loss at Ain Jalut shattered the image of Mongol invincibility and slowed their advance so much, they actually had to retreat from the Levant.
Who ended Mongols : In 1304, the three western khanates briefly accepted the rule of the Yuan Dynasty in name, but when the Dynasty was overthrown by the Han Chinese Ming Dynasty in 1368, and with increasing local unrest in the Golden Horde, the Mongol Empire finally dissolved.

It is estimated that more than a million people worked on it over the 2,000+ years of its construction with a death toll of approximately 40% to 50%. This would mean that about 400,000 to 500,000 people may have died while building the wall, with many of them interred within its walls.
