      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.

  • @christopherg2347
    @christopherg2347 Před 4 lety +95

    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
      @googane7755 Před 4 lety +19

      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.

  • @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!

    Great job! It's amazing to finally see a quality production about a slice of Hungarian history on youtube. I know that there are good reasons why people always stick to England / France / Germany / Italy, but this region of Europe has some very interesting bits and stories to tell as well. Although it is mostly quite sad.

      @daemonad Před 5 lety +13

      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.

    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.

      Lone Gunman20 Yes but still this is just one theory. It is not yet scientifically proven. The things you spoke are only some evidence but it is not really known. Until we have scientific and genetic evidence then we can not say for sure. Also by the time of vlad it was already 150 years since basarab. There are a lot of other ethnicities that married into the family including vlach, hungarian, bulgarian, serbian etc. Vlad's grandmother from his fathers side was probably hungarian and his grandmother from his mothers side was lithuanian and his mother was moldavian. By vlad's time any cuman heritage would be a very small percentage.

    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. But thw winter of 1241/1242 was cold, and the Danube froze...
