[@markcrnjal4025]

Their generals were tribal leaders and thus were capable on meeting logistical needs on the fly while they were also provided with captured engineers which were crucial in capturing forts and of course like in this case building bridges/siege weaponry. Without the engineers work or the military capability of their generals the Mongols would have stayed an irrelevant group of nomadic tribes.

Tzun Tsu was right about the morale effects for having a retreat. - in the first battle, the Mongols were with their back to the river. So they could not really retreat. While the Hungarians had a "safe" camp to retreat too - And then again. the southern escape route being left seemingly open got people to flee - to be cut down.

[@googane7755]

This was a favourite by Subutai. Whenever the enemy ran to the safety of an encampment, he'd surround the position and pepper it with projectiles until all morale breaks in the defenders in which a convenient gap is left for them to flee. This is obviously a killing field where they would be hunted down like animals. He'd rather have the enemy flee in panic to be cut down in small groups rather than letting them stand and fight to the death to avoid extra casualties.

[@christopherg2347]

@@googane7755 They did conquer China before this, so either they read the book or realized the same things independantly.

[@googane7755]

@@christopherg2347 I think this was discovered independently since most mongols were illiterate and they commonly fought among each other during that period which as a result the mongols had an army full of veteran generals. Also the the Song Dynasty was still unconquered (where I believe Sun Tzu was from) unless his work was stored away elsewhere.

[@EroticOnion23]

@@christopherg2347 China (Song) was the last to be conquered, the Jin were mostly 'Jurchens' from Manchuria; hence why Han Chinese defected en-mass to the Mongols during the conquest of Jin. Han Chinese were the infantry and (along with Muslims) the siege engineers of the Mongol army. Mongols almost never fought on foot.

[@hotepamen6497]

Oh yes they always did this. 300 years later in 1526 when the ottomans invaded Hungary, Austrians did the same, they took control of the north-western part of Hungary and compromised with the Turks.

[@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG]

Game of Thorne level of betrayal right there....sad chapter part in Hungarian history.

[@birocsabal]

It's just usual..

[@daemonad]

Yes, good point (there was also the Emperor Frederick who wanted to weaken Hungary because Bela stood by the Pope.) From what I have read Frederick and his mounted knights captured a group of Tatars that was raiding in the area of Gyor zupa (county) I would have to double check the exact place, these captured raiders turned up to be Cumans because Mongols (Tatars) employed all sorts of ethnicities from their conquered territories and sent them to the forefront to cause havoc before the main army swooped down. Frederick kept a few alive and brought them to Pest to show people "the enemy" Hungarians were already averse to Cumans because they continued to live their nomadic livestyle, pillaging, trampling orchards, fields, raping women, stealing cattle...Czecho-slovak historian Dvorak wrote in his Book (Stopy Davnej minulosti) that after the complains became too numerous, Bela tried to break up Cumans and spread them out across Hungary. (Initially he settled them between the river Moros and Koros - tributaries of river Tisa, because this marshy area wasn't populated.). Sadly it was too late. People were frightened and believed that Cumans living among them were on the side of Tatars and were turning against them so they killed Kotten. Of course this is just what Frederick and Bela's HUngarian enemies (whose lands were returned back to the crown) wanted. Frederick held grudge against Bela for the money he had to pay him over territorial squabble. At this point Frederick also understood that he was incapable to produce an heir, I imagine that was a huge thorn in his side, making him Frederick the Quarrelsome.

[@uzmutusz]

Amazing work! I really liked the huge amount of detail that you put into this video. You mentioned a lot of important stuff that I missed from other videos, like the cumans and the hate from the nobility towards Béla. I absolutely loved the map of the battlefield too with all the correct names of the settlements (there is 1 or 2 misspelled names but it's more than okay), it really shows your dedication. Thanks for this great video you just got yourself a new subscriber.

[@Scottvosler]

This is an incredible breakdown especially the timeline in minute detail. I am impressed with the way you expressed the battle formations as well. That was very helpful in visualize the action on the battlefield as it unfolded. Thanks for doing this. I never researched or studied the Mongol incursions into Europe and this was very interesting and enlightening.

[@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory]

Very well done! A high quality video visually, and I was impressed with your research here. While I think your coverage of the reasons for the Mongol westward expansion could have been given more detail, as with the period after the defeat at Mohi (you do cover it in the cards at the end, and understandably there is a limit to have much information you can put in one video) the campaign itself was well covered. The context of the battle is very important to have clear to understand why it is important, and I think it is worth the effort to spend more time on that and shave a little bit off the battle itself (but that's just me, as someone who is more interested in the historical period rather than the actual battle) Perhaps a bit more on the army composition and fighting styles would be a good addition, and who is on each side and their significance, which makes it easier to relate to the impact of political factors on the campaigns. Not to mention showing which generals are on which side in a card perhaps of sorts? You mention Shiban at one point, one of Jochi's sons and Batu's brother, but I don't think had mentioned him prior to then, making him come out of nowhere somewhat. The pronunciation of the Mongolian names was perhaps a bit weak (Chinggis Khan, not Genghis!) but I did like that you said Pest properly! Overall nicely done, very impressive and I definitely look forward to more!

What I found especially interesting, the use of artillery. The ballistrads were mostly used against fortresses and cities. In very few occasions were mentioned in plain battles. These were not effective due to their short range, extremly heavyness and cumbersome transportability. I witnessed one during work, even helped to prepare the shot. It shoot a human head sized stone to one hundred and fifty meters. Then it took almost ten minutes to shoot again. So this machine could kill one or two man in every ten minutes.

Bela had a tough job and had a pretty good crack at it! The Hungarian nobility was notoriously difficult to control, it's a wonder he even had an army at all.

Sun Tzu said that you should always leave the enemy and escape route and this battle perfectly shows why. The Hungarians tapped the Mongols against the river, where they fought hard knowing that they would probably die if they tried to flee. The Mongols, on the other hand, left an escape for the Hungarians so they would be tempted to take it. Enemies with no escape will hold their ground ferociously because it’s their only chance of survival while enemies with a possible escape will be tempted to break and run.

Just a small information: IV. Bela lost all battles where he personally attended. And his lack of military powress was well known even when he became the king, and more of that, he alianated all his faters supporters. So that is the main reasons of the loss of battle of Muhi (not Mohi!). However the mongol army could only to cross the Danube on winter: the nobility (who werent at Muhi) has the power to controll the potential crossings.

Thank you sir.

To his credit, despite all of his disadvantages and the huge oversight of the first bridge battle, that was a pretty long time Bela and his Hungarians had the Mongols on their back foot.

[@VRichardsn]

Exactly. And Bela's reforms were hugely successful. The Second Mongol Invasion of Hungary ended in total disaster for the Mongols.

[@HUNdAntae]

Richardsen They barely made through the Carpathians. Despite the first hit from the mongol horde, and later on the 150 years Turkish occupation after a good 3-4 generation worth of getting pounded and knocking them back, Hungary for 1000 years was a standing eastern bastion of Europe.

[@VRichardsn]

Yeah, life must have been tough in Hungary.

[@gaborfabian1239]

You call it invasion, we call it Tuesday. :D Maybe im a bit overly nihilist, but if some foreign invading troop would march on my towns streets I would look at the calendar, and think: "Yep, its that time of the century again."

Would love to see more, I really like these types of channel and with the understandably slow production time theres too few videos released!

[@HistoryMarche]

With this kind of animation production time takes quite a bit of time.

[@byzantinetales]

Wow! great job! I really enjoy listening to the voice behind the video

[@nidorrinodaa7350]

Great job mate you're amazing

Holy moly. Please more.

The Mongolian Empire was like playing the conquest game but on ultra easy mode! That, and Mongol policy was: I want that Rest of the world: No! You can't have it. Mongol's: I just took it. What are you going to do about it? Rest of the world: Ok. You can have that, but nothing else! Mongol's: I want that... Annnd repeat.

[@pityu190]

Good video, as a hungarian history teacher, im impressed :) I think you should change the hungarian capital to Buda. Pest was insignificant in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom. There was an enligsh priest names Robert in the mongolain army, who helped the mongolians to write letters to Bela IV, it is a very good letter, i can suggest to read it to everyone, who knows hungarian language and loves history :) Esztergom was a very importtant medieval town in Hungary (seat of the main Archbishop of Hungary) was never taken, because of its walls and italian mercenary crossbowmen defending it. That can be the main factor, that encouraged Bela to negotiate the nobles to build fortresses everywhere, and gave them land again (his fater gave a lot of land to the nobles, and Bela stopped it, that was the main reason of the coflict between the king and his highlords), Also, most of the videos what i saw forgets about Mongolian invasion in Hungary (what we call "Tatárjárás") forgets to mention the fact that Ögödei dies in 1241, and Batu Khan wants to be the Great Khan. That is certanly one of the main reasons of the mongolian retreat.

[@Danci1337]

Well, as far as i'm aware, or atleast was taught in school (also Hungarian). Hungary did have fortresses, but made out of wood, which ofcourse was not capable of fending off a real army, because they could just set it on fire. And surely the Mongolian army was more than capable of developing good tactics, given they crossed a whole continent to get here. Also would like to point out that in the game that i'm sure many are familiar with, well Age of Empires 2. The invasion is included too and also explained why the Mongolias retreated, just as you've mentioned above. :)

[@daemonad]

Good points about Esztergom, Buda, however, became important only after the Tatar invasion when Bela had a stone palace built there on the hills, so you have it reversed. Up until 1240 Pest was more important than Buda. And yes Esztergom had a stone castle and was able to fend of the Tatars but the town itself under the royal palace was destroyed. As the video mentions there were several reasons why Tatars left, the main one was logistics, the Tatar idiots killed the peasants, destroyed everything and had nothing to feed their horses. The Chinese had to teach them that killing everyone wasn't actually in their best interest. The rains feeding the marshlands and the mountains made it also difficult for them to maintain a strong foothold.Their second attempt at the end of 13th century ended in utter failure.

Keep up the good work, i really liked some details about the major personas that are not mentioned in other channels' videos. The channel is going to grow fast if you keep it that way

[@vinodvarghese78]

I stumbled upon your channel from BazBattles. Your channel is interesting and I believe it's new. Anyway it's really fun to watch your content. Keep up the awesome work! Will check out your other videos as well. I'm a big fan of European history.

King Bela's decision to take in and protect the treacherous Cumans is a lesson for all of us

[@erikfischer9728]

Well done! I'm Hungarian and the film was well made, historically accurate! Subscribed. (Little side note: Mongols left Europe after they destroyed the rest of the Hungarian Kingdom. And after a few months they returned, but this time they defeated by Hungarian army at the Karpathian Mountains and never returned to Hungary)

[@drazenbicanic3590]

Bela fled, and the Mongols followed him, until he took refuge on the Adriatic islands, where they could not follow him. He later distributed the privileges to all who helped him escape.
