Yes, which is why I am saying, again: Mongol’s empire was far and wide,
China was only a small portion. If they indeed wrote a comprehensive
record, you can easily find them from Russia, Middle East and Central Asia
and even east Europe. The lack of their hand books has very little to do
with Chinese Han not keeping them. 96 years indeed multiple generations,
they had plenty of time to write plenty of things in various nations they
ruled for keep sake.
When you look at the fragmented mongol dynasties, there were multiple
strategies for rule. The Yaun dynasty opted for a Mongol/Uighur
administered empire, where they used a modified Uighur script. The Timurid
dynasty in Persia sought legitimacy though conversion to Islam and
patronage of the Persian arts (including literature). In either case, they
did leave a written record. Also, your comment about 96 years directly
conflicts with what you said before.
Like I said, it didn’t matter much that you’re wearing metal because you
would be wearing a THICK layer of padded clothing between your armor and
your skin, and quite likely another layer on top of the metal. The purpose
was not just to protect the expensive armor against the elements, but to
provide additional protection from crushing weapons and armor-piercing
arrows.
Thank you so much I train this now for some days and I can shoot 2 arrows
bevore the first hits the ground, and I can shoot 10 times as fast!! Thank
you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Effective range, 60m, long bow effective range, 300m. This would be great
for a cavalry man to be shooting at near point blank targets, but these
guys would get shredded by European archers in open warfare.
The English longbow was not an easy weapon to train with, not to mention
most of these speed demon archers rode horses, so they could clear that
distance on a battlefield relatively quickly and easily flank other
archers, not to mention many were trained to be able to fire backwards as
they rode away, but yes, against a castle full of longbowman shooting speed
would not matter.
I hate to be nit-picky but they could fire 12+ arrows per minute, 12 being
the bare minimum not nine!
Not quite, the Welsh used shortbows, only 4-5ft.
well i thought so, but i was in doubt and wasn’t about to spout nonsense on
this one of the most sober youtube comment pages :-p
Was that a burial or ceremonial mound @ 1:52? It didn’t look like a natural
hill.

thats like 3 seconds
glad nobody took an arrow to the knee
you fail!.. you can clearly see he has the three arrows in his hands the
whole time, allowing him to shoot faster.
humble man

No, count more closely (or use a timepiece!!). And also, the beginning of
the video is slower.
not using a quiver is the whole freaking point

Shooting Faster is so much better than shooting slower.
I gotta try a bow after seeing the Lars way of shooting.

And now I know why in the end, the Mongols didn’t stand a chance against
the Mamelukes.
