In the early 13th century, in order to unify the Mongolian Plateau, Genghis Khan launched a series of battles to conquer all the Grassland tribes who rule their own region. For hundreds of years, especially for the modern times, "the Battle of Huiten" has drawn the attention of the scholars both in and abroad, and the battle was also recorded in historical books in many editions.It is a pity that in academia many problems on the time, place and course of the Battle of Huiten remains a mist and different people hold different views, and there was not any trusty conclusion so far.《the Study on Several Problems about the Battle of Huiten》has made a deep research on this battle, especially on some problems about the ancient battlefield ruins of the Battle of Huiten.On the basis of older generations'research achievements, the paper gives full play to the author's features and strong points of knowing her own national language well, familiar with the national customs and emphasizing research and investigation, and makes a deep analysis and textual research on research achievements on several problems about the time, place, and course of the Battle of Huiten, thereby, makes the study on this battle, especially the study on geographic location of the ancient ruins of the Battle of Huiten clearer, and it is very helpful to the academic development in this field.About the re-study on the problems about time and course of the Battle of Huiten, the paper obeys the basic rules and methods of historiography, and uses the method of historical back tracking. The Battle of Huiten is one of the important battles that were directed by the greatest militarist in the history, Genghis Khan.This battle implies Genghis Khan's strategy and tactics, the wisdom of the war, thus,even the historical material's record about the battle were contradicted with each other, and the researchers' opinions varied on this point, when we make Genghis Khan's many other battles as frame of reference and compare with this battle, and re-explore many problems of the Battle of Huiten, the conclusion will be well reasoned and close to original features of the history.About the time of the Battle of Huiten, the paper analyses related historical materials, comparing it with fore-and-aft battles, and confirms the time of the battle as autumn or winter of 1202.The study on the place where the battle took place is the importance and difficulty in the paper. The author collected the opinions and pivotal proofs of the older generation, via analysis and investigation, combining military geography with Genghis Khan's military thought and physical evidence, and comes to the conclusion that the ancient ruins of the Battle of Huiten locates in Huiteng grassland, Xinbaerhu Right Banner, Hulunbeier City.In addition, the paper analyses the reason why problems on the Battle of Huiten were recorded into so many editions, and considers that it was because the scholars both in and abroad were restricted by national language, and they were lack of first-hand historical material, using old research method, and also influenced by commercial purpose and personal emotion.
