A proposito di questo titolo

In the winter of 1241, a Mongol army under Subutai crossed the frozen Danube and smashed a Hungarian force at the Battle of Mohi. In weeks they had taken Pest and Esztergom. But then, just as Vienna lay open, they turned back. Why? This episode of Fexingo History plunges into that pivotal moment, introducing the Mongol invasion of Europe under Genghis Khan's successors. Lucas and Luna explore the steppe empire's war machine — the decimal army structure, the composite bow, the feigned retreat — and the terrifying speed of their campaigns from China to the Carpathians. We meet Subutai, the brilliant general behind the victories, and the European kings who failed to unite. But the real question is: what stopped the Mongols? A succession crisis? Geography? Or something else? This pilot episode sets the stage for a series that re-examines a near-miss in Western history, one that could have reshaped the continent from the Atlantic to the Urals.
