In our final episode on our Mongol mini-series, we discuss the expedition into Europe, which introduced the Christian Knights to the mighty and invincible horde that had just devastated the Chinese and Islamic world. A small two-general army broke through the Kingdom of Georgia, and annihilated the Cumans and Kievan Rus in a deadly ambush, after luring 80,000 soldiers out into the Steppe. By the end of the episode, Genghis Khan will fall dead, many suggest his death was caused by the Black Death, which is a perfect segway to the Black Plague that followed the Mongol Invasions. You can really see how people living at the time thought this was the end of times.
