    Alauddin Khaliji famous Afghan warlord of medieval times with his massive empire which stretched throughout the Indian Subcontinent. He was an Afghan who came from the infamous Ghilzai tribe of Pashtuns and at the time of his reign was denounced by Turkic people and labeled as an Afghan (for all of the pan Turk crybabies) he came from the same tribe as Mirwais Hotak, founder of the Hotak dynasty which conquered most of Iran and even defeated the Ottomans, considered by many as the Grandfather “nika” of Afghanistan. Other legendary ruler from this tribe were Sher Shah Suri who formed the Suri empire and Ibrahim Lodhi the founder of Lodhi dynasty, one of the many dynasties of the delhi sultanate.

    One of my pet peeves is the rampant miss use of the word "decimated" by that account the force being discussed was annihilated. Decimation was originally a Roman mass punishment for an entire unit; every tenth man was executed. Decimation now more accurately used would imply a unit took heavy casualties but was still more or less intact as a unit.

    You shohld have discussed battle of Amroha also where Mongols were annihilated.
    The Battle of Amroha was a significant conflict that took place in 1305 in the town of Amroha, located in northern India, during the Delhi Sultanate period. It was fought between the forces of the Delhi Sultanate, led by General Malik Kafur, and the Mongol invaders.
    Background
    During the reign of Alauddin Khilji (1296-1316), the Delhi Sultan Alauddin was determined to repel these invasions and secure the northern borders of his sultanate. The Mongols had previously conducted raids into the Delhi Sultanate, which often led to severe losses for both sides. After a recent series of incursions, Alauddin assigned General Malik Kafur and other commanders to launch a decisive defense against the Mongols.
    The Battle
    The Mongols, under the leadership of Ali Beg and Tartaq, advanced into the Delhi Sultanate territories and reached Amroha. However, Alauddin's forces, led by prominent generals such as Malik Kafur and Ghazi Malik (later known as Ghiyath al-Din Tughluq), were well-prepared for the confrontation. The Delhi Sultanate army strategically positioned itself and managed to surround the Mongol forces, preventing their escape.
    The battle was brutal and marked by intense close-quarters combat. The Sultanate's forces decisively defeated the Mongols, capturing and executing many of them. This victory at Amroha was instrumental in weakening Mongol ambitions in the Indian subcontinent and reinforced Alauddin Khilji’s reputation as a powerful ruler capable of defending his realm.
    The battle highlighted the strategic and military capabilities of the Delhi Sultanate and helped solidify its dominance in the region for years to come.

      The Delhi Sultanate period was marked by episodes of violence, religious persecution, and economic exploitation.
      Temple Destruction: Many rulers, such as Alauddin Khilji and Firuz Shah Tughlaq, destroyed Hindu temples and idols as acts of religious dominance. Notable sites like the Somnath temple were plundered for wealth.
      Forced Conversions and Persecution: Non-Muslims faced persecution, including forced conversions to Islam. The imposition of the jizya tax on Hindus and other non-Muslims further marginalized them. Firuz Shah Tughlaq is known for forcibly converting thousands.
      Massacres: Military campaigns often led to mass killings. Alauddin Khilji’s conquest of Chittor resulted in the slaughter of thousands of civilians. Timur's sack of Delhi in 1398, though during a weakened Sultanate, resulted in over 100,000 deaths.
      Economic Oppression: Heavy taxation under rulers like Alauddin Khilji impoverished farmers and common people. Revenue systems often exploited rural populations to fund military campaigns.
      Slavery: Firuz Shah institutionalized slavery on a large scale, establishing a department specifically for managing enslaved Indians. He is said to have enslaved over 180,000 individuals during his reign.
      The Hindu Kush mountain range, located in modern-day Afghanistan. The name "Hindu Kush" is translated as "Hindu Killer." This name is believed to have originated due to the high mortality rate of Hindu slaves transported through these mountains. Many slaves, captured during Sultanate campaigns in northern India, were marched across the treacherous terrain to be sold in Central Asian markets.
      Probably our ancestors have credited more than enough.........

    Indian Sultans had better equipped and well trained militatary that inhiliated mongol forces. There may be ktger factors too but the main strong reason mongols got defeated was they faced a superior enemy first time. Not only India, Mongols were beaten in Levant by Egyptian Sultan because of the same reason, the suprior military of Sultan was successful against savage Mongols who merdly relied on superior numbers.
    Egypt and Indian kings adopted the brilliant strategy of nuetralising Mongols' superior numbers and surprise attacks.
    Neither superior numbers nor their surprise attacks worked on both fronts.

They usually came in 30000 to 300000 in numbers depending on the area of opponent. In case of India they could not outnumber their enemy. Instead they were trapped and surrounded and annihilated at tge battle of Amroha. Other than history books people still talk about mongols who were like an evil force coming in huge numbers, they were so dirty that people could smell them from 20 KM away.

Lets move on, BCE 300, Chandragupta maurya ruled all over India from modern day afghanistan to mayanmar. What you believe is a narrative, what i have just mentioned is history. Do a google search. Do you just care about narratives or do you really follow history? I mean, why this need to prove that India never existed when we literally have books written in BCE 3 referring Bharat as a country bound by sea to the south and himalayas to the north. Why do you feel this urge to deny us our own history when it's literally out in the open and you can literally read about it right now as i type this. India is not indian language, India is english used by britishers to refer bharat. Again, where do you get all this info about "hindutva" narrative? You are literlly making a joke of your historical knowledge. I invite you to do a google search about "Bharat" and many many books written on it near 5BCE TO 250CE.

      Come on - let's stop re inventing things. The Dehli Sultanate were Turkic rulers who were also invaders. They ruled the natives. These Turks limited the Mongols. Where are the Indians you are talking about. Just accept facts as they are. You can't re invent what you want. You can celebrate the Turkish victory over the Mongol victory if you want - both armies had a great number of Central Asian Turkic warriors. There was no "India" then so what "Indian" army ? Listen to the names of the leaders of the armies of the so called Indians who are in fact ruling Turks who were invaders themselves.

    • @harishkasaudhan6765
      @harishkasaudhan6765 День тому

      The Delhi Sultans primarily considered themselves Turkic, particularly during the early stages of the Delhi Sultanate (1206-1526). This is because many of the ruling dynasties and nobles of the Sultanate were of Turkic origin.
      Persian was the court language of the Sultanate, but many rulers and elites were fluent in Turkic dialects, which were part of their heritage. Turkic customs and traditions influenced their court practices, military organization, and governance. The Turkic identity was reinforced by their reliance on Turkic soldiers and commanders, many of whom were part of the Mamluk slave-soldier system.
      As the Sultanate expanded and incorporated diverse populations, the rulers began identifying more broadly with Islamic universalism rather than solely with their Turkic roots. However, the early rulers, especially those in the Mamluk and Khilji dynasties, strongly identified with their Turkic heritage, which shaped the foundational years of the Sultanate.
      Why do you apologists need to bring "Indian Muslim loyal to India" whining every time? Try to be objective. Present day Indian Muslims have nothing to do with Turkic colonizers, same way Indian Christians have nothing to do with European colonizers.
      BTW, Britishers defended India from many Afghan invasions, that doesn't make then "Indian empire". We were under foreign occupation, just accept the facts.

    All that knowledge of Mongol tactics did not prevent the Mongols from using their favorite tactic successfully. What really won the battle was that the Mongols lost confidence when they saw how difficult it was to just beat one of the armies and knew that the tactic would not work any more. This underscores the value of bravery but more importantly that discipline is the paramount attribute as if the orders were followed casualties would have been much less.

    The Mongols were defeated by several powers, including the Japanese, the Delhi Sultans, and the Egyptian Mamluks. After the destruction of Baghdad in 1258, the Mongols' dominance began to decline. The Caliphate was a sacred institution for Muslims, and the Mongols' attack on it provoked strong reactions from key Muslim rulers, particularly the Mamluks of Egypt and Berke Khan of the Golden Horde, both of whom recognized the authority of the Caliph (خلیفہ کی بیعت).
    When Hulagu Khan attacked Baghdad and killed the Abbasid Caliph, he set the stage for his own downfall. The outrage over this act of sacrilege led both Berke Khan and the Mamluks to unite against him. Hulagu’s forces suffered multiple defeats, including a significant loss at the Battle of Ayn Jalut in 1260 at the hands of the Mamluks. Eventually, a member of Ahl al-Bayt and the Abbasid family was found and appointed as the Caliph. The Caliphate was reestablished in Cairo by the Mamluks, preserving its symbolic authority within the Muslim world.
    This revived Caliphate remained a central institution for the Muslim world until 1517 when it was abolished by the Ottoman Sultan Selim I after his conquest of Egypt.

      Alauddin Khilji (r. 1296-1316), the second ruler of the Khilji dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate, was a ruthless leader known for his military conquests and administrative reforms. While he strengthened the Sultanate's hold over India, his rule was marked by significant atrocities, particularly on the Indian populace.
      1. Economic Exploitation:
      Heavy Taxation: Alauddin imposed severe land taxes (50% of produce) on peasants, particularly targeting Hindu landowners. The taxes were so burdensome that many were reduced to poverty.
      Confiscation of Wealth: Wealthy merchants, traders, and nobles were subjected to harsh levies. Accumulated wealth was confiscated to fill the Sultanate’s treasury and fund military campaigns.
      2. Religious Persecution:
      Hindus faced systemic discrimination under Alauddin's rule. The jizya tax on non-Muslims was enforced rigorously.
      Temples were looted or destroyed during his campaigns, particularly in Gujarat, where the famous Somnath temple was desecrated and plundered.
      3. Massacres During Military Campaigns:
      Alauddin’s military campaigns in Ranthambore, Gujarat, and Chittor were marked by massacres of civilians. For example:
      Chittor Siege (1303): After capturing the fort, Alauddin ordered the mass slaughter of the population. The women of Chittor, led by Queen Padmini (as per legends), committed jauhar (self-immolation) to avoid enslavement.
      Gujarat Campaign: His forces destroyed cities and enslaved thousands of Hindus, including women and children.
      4. Widespread Enslavement:
      Captured civilians during his conquests were sold into slavery. Thousands of Hindu men, women, and children were enslaved, with many women forced into harems.
      5. Suppression of Rebellions:
      Alauddin dealt brutally with rebellions. Villages suspected of harboring rebels were razed, and the inhabitants were executed. His spy network ensured even minor dissent was crushed swiftly.
      6. Cultural Suppression:
      Hindus were barred from holding high-ranking positions in his administration. He maintained strict measures to ensure the political and social subjugation of the majority Hindu population.

      JUSTICE:
      1. He kept the entire army on payroll, not only at the time of the war, but also peacetime and kept them training !
      2. He created main paved roads, which later became Grand Trunk Road, picked up by Sher Shah Suri !
      3. Clear code for taxation and extra tax "Jazia" for Hindus.
      4. Recruited ex-Mongols to train His army to counter Mongols
      5. Create wall of severed heads of Mongol soldiers to demonstrate, who is more ruthless in war.
      ...
      Doesn't matter what his lineage is, (as these were originally all SLAVES), his religion, he was a successful ruler
      ...
      ..and the reason ...YOU are not CHINESE /MONGOL !!!
      ...
      No I teach you another word ... R-E-S-P-E-C-T !!!
      *
      Go read first, not religious books but history ... to show off "TRUTH" & "JUSTICE"
      *
      Luv4rmNJ
      *
      we are all humans ...and that was ages ago ... who cares !
      *
      (ALL) Religion are obsolete, science (Google, MSFT, AMZN, youTube, META) is the new Religion NOW !

    Okay firstly, your starting map is very incorrect. By the time they invaded the Khwarazmia, they only had control of northern China and no part of Tibet.
    Secondly, the single largest reason why the Mongols couldn't get India was the humidity. Humid environments undermined the structure of the types of bows the Mongols used. Which is the same reason they could never move into southeast Asia, which was a way easier target than India.
    Some comments also use heat as a factor. If this was the case, then why was the Middle East almost completely rolled over. Which they would have been able to completely take if Khanate elections didn't interrupt invasion campaigns.
