How much did Guo Baoyu contribute to the Yuan Dynasty?

Muqali introduced Guo Baoyu to Genghis Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty, and Genghis Khan asked Guo Baoyu about the strategy of seizing the Central Plains. Guo Baoyu said that the power of the rulers in the Central Plains is still very strong and cannot be underestimated. We should conquer Tubo, Nanzhao and other countries in the southwest first, and then use these forces to attack the Jin Dynasty, so as to unify the Central Plains. He also gave advice to Mao: at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, new laws were formulated. Genghis Khan absorbed his advice and issued five orders, such as: March and fight, don't kill innocent people indiscriminately; In addition to the death penalty for prisoners who commit serious crimes, other prisoners may be punished with sticks according to the circumstances, and activities that are not beneficial to the country and harmful to the people are prohibited in temples and Taoist temples. Genghis Khan prepared for the Western Expedition and made Guo Baoyu the governor of Chaomadu Town. In A.D. 12 13, Guo Baoyu led his troops south, took Yongqing, broke Gaozhou (so he ruled the northeast of Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region), captured Longshan (in the upper reaches of Daling River) and captured today's western Liaoning. Then from Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan, after Yannan, Taiyuan and Linfen were captured. 12 19, he followed Genghis Khan's western expedition. The Mongolian army defeated the remnants of the Western Liao Dynasty, occupied the vast areas in eastern and central Xinjiang today, and then crossed the Zhanghu River (now the Syr Darya River) to the east of the Aral Sea, defeated the troops of the Hua La Zi Mo and took control of the upper reaches of the Amu Darya River. 1222, the Mongolian army wiped out the army of the new king of the flower thorn submodule, and occupied the whole territory of the flower thorn submodule (east to the Indus River and southwest to the lower reaches of the Tigris River) in 1224. Guo Baoyu made meritorious service in the war and was appointed as a judge. Due to the long front and unsuitable climate, the Mongolian army retreated eastward. On the way back to the Eastern Route, Guo Baoyu died in Helanshan Barracks on 1226.
