Alexander was a born in a strange time for the persian empire. It was loosing its grips and alexander swooped in and topled it and just rebuilt it in his image

Caeser was a similar story. He came into a divided land and while sorrounded by enemies. They where often much weaker and less ambitious. So he swooped in and defeated one by one. Then rebuilt it in his image

Khan again a similar story except he went to a land that only heard stories of entire armies in horseback. They had no idea how to fight. So he swooped in shooting arrow after arrow. He let them be and just fucked ariund alot where %5 of the world is in his image.

The sheer logistics of the differences in military mean this would be no contest. Ghengis was the pinnacle of steppe commanders and his troops were monsters.

One just needs to look at battles where Roman legions fought much less formidable Horse troops, such as the battle of Carrhae to see how bad this would go for the ground troops.

Even Ceasar's brilliance wouldn't save him from the mongol horde.

Combine that with the Mongol practices of gathering intelligence for years, being the greatest horsemen in history and being willing to sacrifice their own people and you see Ghengis winning.

>>
>>71002954
Going to assume this is bait. But i'll bite, Former ideas that the Mongols were millions strong have long been disputed, nowadays historians believe they used much less men, but used them in such a way as to have multiple columns often 5-7 converging on one spot at the same time, a feat practically impossible for ground troops and the much less disciplined middle eastern and European contemporaries, this lead the chroniclers and troops on the ground to think they were being swarmed by more men than in reality.

>All this shit about horse archers beating romans in the battlefield

Do you guys even realize that battlefields back in the day were rare and were mostly fought as sieges? It was even true for Ghengis.

One of the reasons he was dominant was because he was very mobile over large distances of land. Now if you have a concentrated force inside a fortification, the opponent has to leave a pretty big chunk of his army behind to maintain the siege. If that fortification is at the sea, it will never fall without a battle because mongolians didn't have any seafaring knowledge. All they could do would be to loot different unprotected cities all the time, which worked fine for Hannibal for 14 years until he was btfo at Zama.

Caesar would probably not risk an open battle. He would try to maintain strongpoints and then counter attack when the enemy would be too outstretched.

Keep in mind, Roman power came from its great organisation and logistics

>>
>>71006760
>implying Caesar would get to chose the battlefield
The mongols were nomads bro, they don't engage if the field isn't to their advantage.
>>
>>71006760
Knowing how the Mongols fought if Ceasar fortified himself in a city the Mongols would just rape and pillage all areas out in the open.

Also even though the siege of Baghdad was conducted by a 2nd generation Mongol, the success they had in the siege goes to show that really, nowhere would be safe from them.

The sheer mobility of horses was something the Roman legions could not deal with on a tactical level
>>
>>71001545

>>
>>71005525
>we're all related to Khan so he wins

i mean its probably a exaggerated but still
>>
Given that the Mongols had a 1500 year technological advantage, it's pretty obvious Genghis Khan would clearly win.
>>
>>71005068
Definitely the Khan my man, his technology was 1100 years more advanced than Caeser which is 1500 more than Alexander. The technology makes the debate irrelevant.
>>
>>71002149
not it isn't. It's mostly steppe.
>>
>>71001545
Nothing could stop the Khan. Not even European armies, which were considered the best of the best. Try not to think of the Golden Horde as an army, try to think of them as instead you would a mighty hurricane or a terrible avalanche. There is nothing you can do to stop them except use their tactics against them, which requires unique territory and only worked once by the Egyptian Mamluks.

The only thing that could maybe stop the Khan is maybe an ocean, like in Japan.

Europe was this close to getting cucked by Genghis Khan.

Look up Prester John.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prester_John

Both the Pope and Vatican at the time thought Genghis Khan was their Fabled Christian King from the East they were looking for all this time.

Had Genghis Khan not died, the Vatican would have welcomed Genghis Khan with open arms and who knows what would have happened once the Mongols entered the Vatican with the Gates wide open.

Would Genghis Khan have converted or would have simply make the Vatican yet another new territory he gained?

What are your guesses, /pol/?

This, the mongols had massive slingshots that launched entire tree's, and their horse archers were like a swarm of bees, each one able to shoot a bird out of the sky at the exact moment all four of the horses hooves were off the ground. The Mongols basically became super humans from living In the harsh conditions on the steppe, and when they left the steppe they would start to lose their abilities.

Its really is hard to say. From my understanding Europe would likely survive but the Mongolians still have a good shot at it, regardless they'd fuck shit up. Their siege tech was behind Europe and they'd have a much harder time a assaulting castles. The trick however would be making sure Mongolians didn't obtain European siege technology i think. Also the terrain is an important factor despite faggots discarding it Europe is more compact and they'd have a better chance scouting the Mongolians.

Europe would need to work together and they'd need to utilize the peasants so they spot Mongolian positions and report them so they dont flank / out maneuver them. That said most soldiers were men of arms, inexperienced kinda slow and didn't know how to follow commands to the letter like the Mongolians killers did. Europe would have to have more outwit then Mongolians had might and wit but they're adaptable just as the Mongolians were.

Guessing with a bullshit estimate i'd say 1/3 chance the Mongolians conqueror Europe.
