The dynasty, like the previous Slave dynasty, was of Turkish origin, though the Khaljī tribe had long been settled in Afghanistan. Its three kings were noted for their faithlessness, their ferocity, and their penetration of the Hindu south.

What most king did was to please their own self rather then the public, and those who did cared for the public, history treats them with high regard. Even Ashoka the great was only considered "great" once he realised wars are a loss regardless of whoever wins.

    There are a few mistakes I think about Zafar khan and his role in the battle against Mongols. When Qutlugh Khuwaja was crossing over India and marching towards Delhi, Zafar khan was stationed at Multan and not Delhi. Alaudin Khilji was in Delhi himself but was informed very late of Mongol invasion and hence had a very little time to make preparations for the battle. Many suggested that they should fight from inside but Alaudin rejected and decided to face Mongols on the battle field. Zafar khan intercepted Qutlugh Khuwaja on many occasions but Qutlugh khuwaja refused to engage him in a battle because he wanted to reach delhi on the earliest. He famously once told Zafar Khan off when he tried to challenge him by saying that Kings only fight kings and that Zafar khan should join his king against Qutlugh Khuwaja. Upon his arrival and when battle formations were set, Alaudin explicitly told his generals to not chase mongols without his orders because he was well aware of Mongol tactics. Punishment for such disobedience was death. When the battle started and Zafar khan neglected Alaudin's orders he found himself surrounded by Mongols. He knew no help was going to come. Only way forward was death and hence he ordered his men to fight like hundreds. 500 men killed 5000. Zafar khan in a bid to redeem himself fought gallantly. Mongols who witnessed such courage lost morale and once Qutlugh was seriously injured, the battle was over.

    They conquered China. Heat would not be a problem. They can invade during winter time in Northern India. The reason they failed is, the great conquests of the Mongols which we are aware happened much before 1390's. The Mongol armies that the Delhi Sultanate faced was a shadow of the army under Ghengis, Jebe Subutai, Hulagu. Had the Mongols invaded while they were a united force India would have come under Mongol rule and I wouldn't be typing in English.

    When Ghengis Khan had camped on the other side of the river Indus, the only thing that stopped him from crossing over was the pragmatic decision taken by the Delhi sultan of not assisting the Kwarezmian prince who had entered India and was seeking help from Delhi. If Delhi had supported him then, we might have seen the finest fighting force on the planet at that time breeze past the Delhi armies.

Example, when Timur the Lame invaded India in the later part of 1300's he was faced with an army that had numerous elephants.

During his initial campaign against the Xi Xia Ghengis was having difficulties in breaking into the fort walls. It was the commoner Subutai who came up with a plan. It was to attack the gates and sure enough it would be repulsed with casualties. But while attacking the gate the Mongols carried a chest along with them. After killing the raiding party, Xi Xia general was curious to know what was in the chest. After making sure no Mongol was around he sent his party out to open the chest. When they opened it, they found birds inside which flapped their wings and flew away. This was the signal for the Mongols that Xi Xia soldiers had come out of the gate. They stormed the gate and the rest is history. Such brilliance, would have found a way to deal with the elephants, if it became too much of a threat to them.

    The part where u say zafar khan was betrayed by his king is actually incorrect. Alauddin knew mongol tactics and told his generals not to chase the running enemy very strictly. Zafar made that mistake and redeemed it with his life. He also knew that Alauddin was not going to come. Although zafar and his men fought fiercely where some say they killed 10 men for 1.

Secondly, mughals - Babur claimed to have mongol blood. So, we did get invaded eventually

Genghis khan completely decimated the islamic empires and even the Chinese because of grudges the mongols held. If mongols wanted to invade India, they would've destroyed sultanates given how genghis destroyed all the way to caspian sea but it seems evident that he didn't want to cause destruction in a land he and the mongols had affinity for. Unlike the barbaric Turkish conquerors who burned educational institutions in their conquered lands just because they felt threatened. So no, if the monghols would've invaded delhi, it would've been much much better than the horrible oppressors we had before the marathas rose and fought back.

The word dehli comes from the urdu word dehleez meaning threshold, boundary, entrance or edge, because dehli was the edge of muslim majority regions. From the 1200s when it was founded by the Muslim salatin starting from Aibek until 1857 it was a Muslim capital under the hands of Bahadur Shah Zafar when it was forcefully taken by the British. Dehli's entire history is stained and its soil is watered with the blood of the Muslims who defended it for their own purpose

    Babur put his footprints in India after the victory in Battle of Panipat in 1526. This laid the foundation of Mughal Empire in India. They were the largest power in India till the death of Aurangazeb in 1707. Unfortunately, his successors were incapable and in next 20 years, they were wiped out. So, in reality the Mughals ruled large parts of India for less than 200 years. So, calling 400 years of Mughal rule is just an exaggeration.

    Few mistakes are present in it. 1. Zafar Khan was ordered by alauddin khilji to not initiate attack unless Mongols do it themselves 2. After seeing bravery and military prowess of sultanate forces qutlugh Khan realized his folly 3. Mongols were hard pressed as far as provisions are concerned 4. The mounted archery was forte of sultanate forces which was major cause behind it's establishment and defeat of rajputs 5 unity among nobility of sultanate 6 one Hindu general of khilji also led sultanate troops and won a great victory over them

    The guys on the Delhi left and center must have had a weird day. "Hell yes, we're crushing them on the right wing!" "Crap, it was a trap and now we have no right wing! We're all gonna die!" "Wait did we just win?"

    Mongol prince dies. What were mongols supposed to do. Zafar challenged the mongol prince on a one on one battle at multiple occasions but he said Kings only fight with kings. Atlast he was killed by zafars attacks.

    1) major props for bringing to light an oft-overlooked chapter in Indian & Mongol history (even the Wikipedia page is a stub) 2) props for pronouncing Chingis correctly 3) 1 demerit for ignoring Razia Sultana

    Grazia indeed deserved a mention but technically she had no part in this story. Her short reign was filled with civil wars and this is a documentary of mongol invasions so I don't think razia should be mentioned though she was a great administrator and warrior

    Feigned Retreat is a tactic used by the Mongols. Alaudin was aware of this and did not want to fall in the trap. Zafar Khan's animosity of mongols had been sharpened by his continuous engagement with them, so he threw himself with whole lot passion before .. unfortunately becoming surrounded. But this did the job of winning the battle. Neither was Alaudin suspicious of him, for he had left him at Delhi many times, when he was campaigning at other places. In the battle, when Zafar had gone too far, the Sultan was angry . Zafar Khan was a loyal commander, who did not risk his Sultan by retreating back, though he was facing death in front of him. Also we must consider the logistics of those ages with no satellite phone, no wireless or for that matter the communications with command centres. In those days, outcome of battles depended many times on the ability to take informed decisions and of course the bravery or courage of few to inspire the whole lot. Zafar was brave and his troops courageous. He fell like a hero that day for his Sultan.

    Precisely said. That's the original fact.
