Jalals escape across the Indus deserves a lot more attention. The battle was one the toughest Genghis had fought against a foreign foe in his career and victory came only when the flanking movement of Jebe ( across a mountain) succeeded. As a last attempt to turn the tide, Jalal charged the mongol centre with his heavy horse and nearly split the army. When it failed with Jalal fighting in the frontline, he turned his horse and jumped of a cliff 30 meters below into the river. It is said that Genghis ordered his men not pursue him for he was awestruck by Jalal's bravery in battle as well in the matter of his escape. He said: "How can such a weak ruler produce such a brilliant son! "

Why? Just accept their leadership and be part of a more modern society than the rest! Mongols were quite strict on their wartime policies, friends would be reward, foes destroyed. You join the Mongols with open arms, you get a whole host of great rewards. Improved trade, better communications, safety of passage, cultural exchanges, and early globalisation. Only downside is the occasional massacres the mongols brought onto rebellions. Also, you get to enjoy 3 great civilizations and cultures in the muslims, persians, and chinese! Great food, brothels, arts, and academics! Another downside is disease. With safe passage and borderless communications, it's easier for diseases and viruses to spread. Although hygene and medicine could have prevented that I'd rather be an "oriental" than a European in the medieval era. The West at the time is pretty much Cambodia today

While the Khwarezmian army was in total larger than the Mongol army they never managed to concentrate their forces properly at other places than Parwan, thus allowing the Mongols to consentrate against them and defeat them in detail. It doesn't matter that you have 400.000 men to the enemy's 100.000 if you're only able to muster 60.000 of them while the enemy can bring all their 100.000 to bear.

Indeed. It has been a method employed by SO many great commanders: Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Forrest, Hindenburg and Ludendorff, Rommel. Even Alexander the Great, famous for fighting battles against numerically superior enemies, would often achieve this on a tactical level at the decisive point of the battle(usually with himself at said decisive point at the head of his companion cavalry).

There's a story here in Mongolia that after the envoys were killed, Genghis Khan spent 3 days and 3 nights alone at Burkhan Khaldun, the most sacred mountain in Mongolia and the mountain that blessed his family with the mandate to rule, to commune with the Eternal Sky and ask him for guidance on what to do with the Khwarezmians. He then supposedly descended the mountain and proclaimed Tenger (the sky) himself demanded the end of Khwarezm. Also the reason molten gold and silver was poured into Inalchuk's orifices was because it was widely believed by the Mongols that he captured the merchants to quickly increase his own coffers thus it was a punishment for his greed. This was also confirmed to be the inspiration for GRRM and Khal Drogo's "crowning" of Viserys in ASOIAF.

The khwarezmi empire under the incompetent shah did indeed have a much bigger army than the mongols, some speculate a total of 500k across all his garrisons but the reason he failed to unite them was that firstly he believed the mongols to be poor at siege warfare (incorrectly) and that his garrisons would inflict heavy damage on raiding mongol armies....but secondly and mainly the reason shah didnt unite the majority of hos forces was being a tyrant he distrusted his own army and was advised not to unite his army due to high chance of them rebelling against him as he had a huge mercenary contingent in his armies who were not the most loyal type....I spent years researching the fall of Khwarezm and the struggle of the shah's son jalaludin againt the mongol. Btw this jalaudin was quite the man with an ambition to match even genghis himself, it is said when the situation at the indus river battle near kalabagh became untennable and the prince had to retreat through hordes of mongols and making it to a sharp cliff he rode straight down it to the river, the great khan was so impressed by his bravery and determination that he ordered his archers not to fire arrows at him and let him escape that day..

If you see it with your own eyes, u won't believe that it had happened. Interesting fact is that the exact area and village there is called " Ghora Tarap" in local language which means " Horse Jump". After entering india, Jalal ud din established his headquarter in current day Pakistan and fought his whole life against mongols. Jalal ud din is the symbol of struggle and bravery.

The mother of the Shah was power hungry and was basically manipulating Shah Mohammed. She also had a a stupid and unnecessary feud with her Grandson Jalal Al Dins Mother. Both women belonged to different Turkic groups. Genghis Khan knew of the family feud and basically used it to his advantage by forging Royal documents with a stolen Royal seal and using those documents to further cause disunity within the Kwarizmians. The Kwarizmian Royal family were morons. The Father and Grandmother helped destroy their Royal dynasty and Empire whilst the Grandson made enemies with the Seljuks and Abbasids. Also the Grandson Jalal Al Din massacred thousands of Armenians and Georgians when sacking their cities to obtain funds for further rebellions against the Mongols. The Kwarizmian Royal family were a lost cause.

One of the reason why Kuchlug was defeated was that he insisted in imposing Nestorianism on the Muslim population in Western Liao which led them to back the Mongol invasion of Western Liao. For that reason he was one of the historical "candidates" for the origin for the legend of Prester John. The founder of Western Liao, Yelü Dashi, who defeated the Seljuk was another one such "candidate."

Yes, good note, indeed the local Muslim population joined the Mongols, and probably were in there armies.

True. But it seems Kuchlug mostly went after the Muslims. Part of the reason why must be because his wife, the princess of Western Liao, was Buddhist.

the Mongol force that was defeated by Jalal-al-din was led by Shihi-khutag, according to the Secret History of the Mongols. He was adopted by Genghis Khan's mother when his Tartar tribe was defeated back when Genghis was only Temujin. Shihi-Khutag was never given a command of another army. He abandoned military service subsequently and took on scholarly work and became a key advisor to the great Khan. Genghis Khan's Great Yasa (Mongolia's first ever unified written law) is largely attributed to this man.

Very well done! Only thing I would have added would be the Quyli River Battle in 1219: occurs around the same time as the Otrar Massacre. Jochi and Subutai has chased fleeing Merkit into modern Kazakhstan, and on their return Shah Muhammad attacked them with a large force. The battle was inconclusive, and the Mongol, not wanting to be caught up in unnecessary warfare with someone they hadn't been at war with, slip away in the night. Supposedly the Khwarezm-Shah however was so frightened by Mongol ferocity that he became paranoid of them and that affected the defense against the later Invasion. According to Christopher Atwood, Chinggis would have learned of the battle around the same time as the massacre, effectively seeking the fare of Khwarezmia.

Genghis was a master at his work. To capture two of the enemy's biggest cities and one of them their capital without a large scale battle is just brilliant. No one in history has ever pulled that kind of maneuver that precisely. Not many can even imagine it but Genghis always had the element of surprise by suddenly appearing in enemy's rear causing tremendous panic and chaos to his enemies

The battle of Ayn Jalut was fought against a small Mongol *detachment* not the real army. The thing that stopped the Mongols weren't the Mamluks. Politics did more to stop the Mongols than the battle of Ayn Jalut.
