The SECRET Tactic that DESTROYED the Mongol Horde | Battle of Ain Jalut The unstoppable Mongol war machine had conquered half the known world, leaving only ash and bone in its wake. But in the scorched valleys of Ain Jalut, the hunters finally became the hunted. For decades, the Mongol Empire seemed like an apocalyptic force of nature that no wall could stop and no army could defeat. After the horrific fall of Baghdad and the execution of the Caliph, the world held its breath as the "Scourge of God" turned toward Egypt. In this video, we break down the legendary Battle of Ain Jalut (1260), a clash that changed the course of human history forever. You will discover how the Mamluk Sultanate, led by the iron-willed Sultan Qutuz and the brilliant General Baybars, executed a tactical masterpiece that shattered the Mongol aura of invincibility. We dive deep into the specific "Secret Tactic"—the masterfully executed feigned retreat—that drew the Mongol heavy cavalry into a deadly trap. We also explore the fascinating use of early gunpowder technology, the "midfa," which caused chaos among the Mongol ranks. This is the story of a desperate last stand, the clash of elite warrior cultures, and the moment the Mongol westward expansion was halted for the first and only time.
