Interesting to think that the Mongols unsuccessfully tried to invade Japan, only for the Japanese to return the favor some 700 years later, also unsuccessfully.
I hadn't even thought of that!
Invading another country is a risky business msot of times.
Defenders have home field advantage, are fighting literally defending own homes and know the countryside and are accustomed to weather.
Only few empires managed to make serial conquest a repeatable procedure.
Attacking must be really hard.
The score is still 0 to 0.

Japanese: Invade Mongolia.
Mongols: Let us introduce our friend, comrade Zhukov...
Loool
@@spoon6273 It was Zhukov's training, basically. That and later operations is how he became right hand of Stalin, second in command of entire USSR armed forces.
Mongols definitely would have been defeated if not for their Russian allies joining the fight. And Zhukov is a briliant military leader who later also led the Russian army vs the Nazis and also defeated them.
@@ceu160193 Its amazing that Zhukov never became the supreme leader of USSR. And Stalin never issued an order to assasinate him. Maybe they knew if any of them moves then both of them will go down. Like a Mexican standoff.

If you manage to frighten the Japanese forces during WWII, you must be pretty hardcore.
Definitely!
Probably to them, Mongolian horse horses were something almost legendary: after all they were the force that subjugated most of Asia, and Japan only saved from them thanks to two storms. That maybe contribute to their fear of Mongolians

That's actually a myth. Japanese sources don't record any typhoon during the first invasion. In the second invasion, the Japanese defenders had already succeeded in pushing the Mongols out of their small beachhead on the mainland and back onto their boats before the typhoon hit.

If Soviet didnt send 500 tanks & 61,000 soldier, those 2,000 Mongolian horseman will be bukkaked by 30,000 Japanese. Soviet having the number is the real factor here.

Japanese: You can't stop us!
Mongol: Yes we Khan!
I'm surprised to learn of the lack of control Japan had over its field commanders. Launching offensives on their own initiative is way above a colonel's paygrade. It's no wonder they lost.
there was the Army, and there was the Navy, each with a mind of its own, working against each other, each fighting its own war, and there was the "government" and the "emperor" who controlled just the civil defense. now there are the giant industrial-financial conglomerates controlling everything including the "government" and the "emperor", and fighting eachother. that's feudalism, that's what the entire world is turning into. because we can do no better.
There whole military was like this. Lower officers could make huge decisions. No one was really in charge not even the emperor
"The Japanese could avoid such difficulties if they returned to Japan." -WW2 in a nutshell
Its the exact same tone as a parent trying to teach their young child a lesson 😂
I mean, the US did nuke them as the leadership thought it would be a bloodbath to fight the Japanese on their home turf.
@stren geheim cope
Well, the Japanese lost the Germans, the Italians, and themselves (the Japanese) World War 2, by attacking the Americans at Pearl Harbor (and, thus, dragging the United States into World War 2, in December of 1941, at a time when, all, Germany, Italy, and Japan seemed they were on their way to winning the war). Had they (the Japanese) not made the grave mistake of attacking the Americans, there is a very good chance that the Germans, and the Italians would have won the war against the British, the Soviets, and the Canadians (in Europe, in the Atlantic, and in Africa), and the Japanese would have won the war against the Chinese, the Australians, and the Mongolians (in Asia, and in the Pacific).
@stren geheim well, the actions of the Germans (the occupation of Czechoslovakia, and of Poland), of the Italians (the occupation of Ethiopia, and going to war with the United Kingdom, in Africa), and of the Japanese (the occupation of Manchuria, and going to war with China) caused World War 2; not the actions of the British, and certainly not the actions of the Americans (who, BTW, up until 1941, were leading a policy of isolationism in international affairs).

Balls of Mongolia right there.

I wonder if there's a genetic advantage to Mongolian horses having short necks (short when compared with other horses).
They are overall shorter, stockier and more rugged than other breeds of horses. Thier maintenace is low and very agile compared to other breeds of horses.
Perfectly adopted for their environment and use.
If you can fire a bow from them you most certainly can fire a rifle.
Smaller hitbox, lower maintenance cost, improved combat ability, and movements bonus on Steppe and plains
@@GAndreC And harder to KO :)
I think they have a advantage in less heat loss. I vaguely recall reading something on that although l may have facts mixed up.

I've done a research paper on Khalkhin Gol, and I must say the research and effort put into this video is absolutely outstanding.

That is Chinese problem. Mongolians also avoided sweet & sour pork and turned Mongolian eradicator against Chinese.
Wow, that was very fascinating. The Mongolians are to this day a very hardy people indeed. They might be the most skilled horsemen in the world, being able to shoot bow and arrows at a full gallop accurately. Mongolian boys are trained so at a very young very young age. They also are still experts at falconry. I base this comment on simply a documentary I watched, which showed video of astonishing feats the Mongolians are capable of.
Uighur peeps keep falcon.they climb cliffs,boost an chick,fed it,train it & turn them loose on wild fox.If the falcon misses the 1st kill,they are turned back to the wild immediately.If they complete the 1st kill,2 years go by b4 the falcon is turned loose.They do not keep the birds 4 life.From 1 of those earth docs,focusing on indigenous peeps.

@@abdurrahmanqureshi3030 And they treated their 'subjects' as you put it so well, as slaves and guinea pigs for worse experiments than the Nazis did? How could the Mongols as a small country possibly have fought back without some support against a massive enemy, just as Russia and other communist countries supported Vietnam and who wants to support the Japanese of this era, something I've never met a Japanese of today would have anything good to say about, so its like giving any collaborator group credit for what the Nazis did
The South Korean movie “My Way” depicts this battle of Khalkin Gol from the Japanese (conscripted Koreans) view including individual suicide attacks and with gas drums strapped to the front of trucks that attacked Russian tanks headlong. Great wwii movie as well; one of my favorites. Nice video!
That was cringe scene.
I love that Soviet response to the Japanese. "You don't like it here? You can leave." Pretty accurate.
I think the Mongols had the advantage of geography on their side. The Japanese were for the most part walking into unknown territory. Their first mistake was not realizing the depth of the Mongol-USSR alliance. Even if the Japanese initially succeeded, It would have been short lived, the southern regions of Mongolia is fairly level plains and desert. The northern region is mountains where armor is useless. For those of you who are unaware Corps Commander Zhukov eventually became Marshal Zhukov that lead the Soviet advance into Germany.
Marshall Zhukov....HERO OF THE SOVIET UNION!🇷🇺

Less pride more not enough personnel or equipment
@@angryzombie8088 and the Mongols would have stomped the japanese if it werent for typhoons. Both pointless what ifs.
Also the Mongols had more than 2000 troops, not to mention holding mongolia is a whole different story. Like the us invasion of afghanistan, it would be impossible for the japanese to create a foothold in Mongolia. Harsh winters, rough terrain and guerrila warfare would have been way too costly for the Japanese. The Mongol nomads would simply have to relocate north and have their warriors hit the japanese supply lines. Same tactic the russians used against the nazis.
@@munguntulga You must have forgot, that 500 tanks & 61,000 Soviets from this video is not a What If situation.
You are confused, I'm not talking about Mongol Invasion of Japan, I'm talking about WW2. The fact that you refused & failed to understand here is that Soviet contribution is the main deciding factor for the outcome.
Mongolia & Afghanistan terrain is completely different, go back & learn some geography.

Good video, thanks, and total respect to the Mongols. Really not enough is commonly known (in the West) about this theatre. As for your 2 questions at the end, you kind of answered them yourself. The fight itself was for resources - which the Russians needed as well - while the reason it went no further was the war on its way in Europe: USSR didn't want to fight on two fronts, Japan also didn't need a fight at their rear once they were forging down into East Asia.
As for the speculation, well, you got me thinking on that one.
I love these stories from other arenas I know little about.
Well done,great presentation
Amazing story I haven’t heard enough about.
The enemy that defeated the mongols was the bubonic plague, nearly wiped them out.
Finally someone to cover up the story of war of the khalkh gol. As man who served military in Khalkh gol this was the war that we massacred our cousins. Manchurian volunteers who were in quantung army side were actually ethnical mongolian group.
That’s a incredible story and I’m glad to hear it.
eckards this channel is so under rated good job
Here I go again, but I think the tactical and strategic abilities of Soviet generals Zhukov and Schtern, combined with the thousands of Soviet troops and large quantities of Soviet armor, cannon, and aircraft that were present, had a lot more to do with the Japanese loss than the Mongols did.
'Dont bring a sword to a tank fight' whaaaat!? they are badasses
I heard from my grandma that her father got on top of the tank managed to open it from outside and slashed four japans from the top. maybe he was angry because his two brothers got killed from japanese bombarding in battle

The Japanese were cocky because they were like "we beat Mongols centuries ago!" Forgetting that they didn't beat the Mongols... The weather beat the Mongols... And then they named there most devistating weapon of the war after that weather...
The Soviets won this. Without them, no Mongolia.
It would be interesting if you cover what happened in 1945 during so called the “Liberation War”. They reached to the great wall, liberating Southern Mongolia from Japanese, which was annexed by China according to Yalta Conference agreements.
The Red Army does exactly that in 1945. Manchuria was captured and their troops don't stop until they get to North Korea.
The Soviet border was already adjacent to North Korea. The offensive that took North Korea was mounted from that border. The fighting in Korea was finished for over a week before fighting in Manchuria ceased. So you have it backwards time-wise.
I always get goosebumps when I watch this CZcamsrs videos that I love it

The Japanese at the time, had the idea that they were superior to any other group of people. The Soviets with their Mongolian allies, taught them a hard lesson in humility.
The Japanese are still racist in many cases. So I've learned from seeing videos about Japan since over a decade now. Even Dragonball Z with saiyan master race nonsense depicts this mentality. They also depict blacks as clowns or subhumans.

Nice video, some pictures are out of context or of incorrect time period. For example at 5:20 certainly Barga Mongolians, probably early 20 century.

FWIW, the Japanese horse archers were just as good as the Mongols; this is the main reason the Yuan invaders were held to small beachheads on the Japanese mainland and eventually pushed back into the sea during both invasions of Japan.
The kamikaze "saving" Japan is a myth. Japanese sources don't even mention a typhoon during the first invasion. In the second invasion, the Japanese and Mongol forces fought pitched battles for weeks before the typhoon struck. The Mongols had already been pushed back into the sea by the time it hit, which is why it was so destructive.
Japanese archery was superior as was their swordcraft!
Not so their leadership.
