Genghis Khan's Mongol Army: Discipline and Tactics
from Genghis Khan: The Man Who Built the Largest Land Empire in History — Fexingo History · host Fexingo
In this episode, Lucas and Luna dig into the military machine that built the largest land empire in history. From the decimal system of tumens to the iron discipline of the kheshig, they explore how Genghis Khan forged a nomadic force into a ruthless, adaptive army. Learn about the nerge, the hunting technique that trained soldiers for war, and how the Mongol warrior's composite bow and horse made them nearly unstoppable. They discuss the key battles that showcased Mongol tactics—like the 1223 Kalka River campaign—and the innovations that allowed a steppe people to conquer cities and empires. Join the conversation as they examine the logistics, the psychology, and the legacy of the Mongol war machine. #MongolArmy #TumenSystem #Kheshig #Nerge #CompositeBow #MongolHorse #GenghisKhan #KalkaRiver #MongolTactics #SteppeWarfare #Subotai #Jebe #MongolEmpire #Yassa #MilitaryHistory #CentralAsia #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
