I’m wondering why it couldn’t be passed through by using ladders. The wall doesn’t appear to be that high.

Edit: Similar to Hadrian’s Wall. Which was 4 feet tall.

“The Great Wall of China has an average height of 7.8 meters (25.6 feet) and can reach up to 14 meters (46 feet) in some sections.  
The wall’s height varies depending on its location and the terrain; walls built on steep hills are generally lower, while those in flatter areas are built higher for better defense.  
Watchtowers along the wall are significantly taller, typically measuring between 10 and 12 meters (33 to 39 feet) high, with some reaching up to 15 meters (49 feet)”  
“Soldiers stationed along the Great Wall played a crucial role in its defense. They patrolled the top of the wall and used a system of signal flags, fires, and lights to communicate and warn of approaching enemies.  
The wall’s height and width made it difficult for invaders to breach, and its strategic placement on mountain ridges further exhausted enemy forces.”

“The wall Great Wall of China was breached throughout its history. Notably, Genghis Khan led his Mongolian army to break through the Great Wall multiple times, including at Wusha Fortress, Juyongguan, Zijingguan, and Tongguan, among other locations.”

Well, it’s difficult for army to pass mountains. and if you tried to climb it, you will found out that there are precipices on one of the two sides.

What about digging through under the walls? Don’t tell me now that they have buckets full of water on the ground near the wall that detects vibrations of digging through! 😛

Also, I was thinking of a much older faction than Mongols. The reason why the wall was built in the first place(at least that is the reason we’re told at schools over here).

Maybe before they can dig, they got killed.

Here’s another photo. you can see that the wall was built on mountains. I know in mid age people dig under a castle, but it’s almost impossible to get tools to the wall.

No. No one tried digging under the wall. At least until recently. In 2023 a couple of people tried digging through the wall to make a shortcut. In the past what the Chinese were facing such as the Mongols. Were tribes that were more familiar with riding horses than with mining.

While possible to dig under the wall. As most of the terrain in mountainous. It would require digging through solid rock. Rather than just dirt. It would most likely take years to dig a tunnel and most likely be detected before completion.

As I have pointed out that people such as the Mongols were more familiar with horses than mining. It would require a obtaining skilled mining engineers and enough labor force to dig. I do not see that operation being successful as the mining engineers’ would likely be Chinese as would likely the labor force.

The main thing about this wall was: one does not need to break the wall of climb it when one can buy a pass from local Guard. And people can always be bribed. Especially when the “main” boss is far away and communications are slow.

They couldn’t climb ladders as had **no underwear** under their kilts and didn’t want to show off their jiggly bits..

Simmilarly , chineese are small , but the great wall was to keep them in, not invaders out.
