The Mongols have conquered so much of the world so fast that they're empire is racked by instability. The Great Khan, however, has lost his mind as he's become so swept up in the flurry of his success. His final goal is to make those Europeans pay for their subjugation of the world. For too long has Mongol glory been compared to their military strength and economic prowess. The Great Khan has thought that He will wipe the Europeans off the face of the earth even if that means dragging the Mongol Empire down with them. But first, things must be arranged...
Forces in Arabia continue to Move south. After capturing and returning Mecca to Egypt, Mongolian forces capture Sana in 1965. Hoping to create a buffer between an Arabia that could reemerge if the Empire falters, this city is handed over to Egypt as well.
In the same year, Tver is added to the list of cities capture in the Russian campaign.
The following year sees the capture of another Russian city in siberia.
Mongolian stability is now nearing collapsing and it continues to fall with each progressing year. These conquests are becoming less and less frequent as the Great Mongolian War Machine begins to stall in the face of all these conquests. The Khan has a choice to make: either his armies can move toward Asia and prepare to reconquer the Mongolian Empire as it collapses, or it can turn west and prepare for the genocide of the Europeans. Considering his options, he creates maps of his Empire and of Europe.
His armies move into position in Asia Minor and Russia. It's been decided. Looking up at a picture of Ghengis Khan, the Emperor of the Mongols orders the attack to commence. The soldiers smile as they realize what this means. To hell with Empire, to hell with these cities, to hell with civilization! Let us descend into barbarism! May the skies of Europe burn as the Mongols raze everything in their path!
For tomorrow's chapter: Let Europe Burn!
