Our goal is to show the fighting spirit of the forefathers of the Tatars and other peoples inhabiting Russia. We continue the cycle of materials by the story of a subed-bagature, one of the greatest commanders and the creator of the Genghis Khan empire. The brave baguatur Subeda Subutay, Subedei, Sebedya-Bogatyr was a brave man, one of the most faithful and loyal commanders of Genghis Khan, the organizer and commander of the Mongol troops during a campaign to the west, which led to the conquest of the Black Sea steppe, Bulgaria and Rus', as well as the defeat of Poland, Hungary and Bulgaria.

It is the most striking embodiment of the energy of the Turkic-Mongol tribes, when immigrants from ordinary warriors, thanks to luck and talents, could realize themselves by turning a small steppe state into the most powerful power of medieval Eurasia. Subedei - from the Steppe Turkic tribe Uryankut Uryanhan, whose elite believed what comes from the Tatars. But at the first successes of Genghis Khan, many people from these tribes began to join the successful and charismatic leader.

Subedei and his brothers were one of the first to become his nuker. During the brutal internecine wars with other tribes, the young subedya showed courage and command skills, having received the title of “baguators”. For several years, he became one of the most prominent military leaders of Genghis Khan, showing his talents in the battle of Hangay the year, when the last enemy coalition was defeated.

It was then, judging by the “secret legend” of the year, the enemies nicknamed him, as well as the three other commanders of Khubilai, Jebe and Jelma “frantic dogs”, launched from the Genghis Khan chain, which “have been fed by human meat, they have copper foreheads of carved teeth and iron hearts”. It was Subedea who sent the Mongolian khan to pursue and exterminate Merkitov, which led to the first clash with Khorezmshahs and Kipchaks.

For successes, he was awarded the title of "Neion-Tysychnik." After a victorious campaign to South Siberia, he formed a tumen from Kypchaks, Kyrgyz and other Siberian tribes, participating in the conquest of Central Asia. But after that, he, along with Jeb, received an order to pursue the last Khorezmshah and explore the way to the countries of Asia and Europe.

During this campaign with very limited military forces in the conditions of a hostile environment, the subedei military talent turned into full force. He was able to sequentially defeat the troops of the Turks-Seljukov, the Georgian king and the Armenian rulers. Moving further, the troops of the Mongols crossed the Caucasus and defeated Kypchakov and Alan.

After that, the Kipchaks fled to Rus' and created a military coalition. The rush of the campaign was the brilliant victory of the subedae over the united Russian-Polovetsky army in the battle of Kalka in the year. After that, military luck changed her subedae. Trying to develop his success, he decided to invade Bulgaria. But here in a battle on the Sura River in the fall of the year, he himself was ambushed and suffered a humiliating defeat, barely withdrawing 4 thousand soldiers.

This battle became the only one in his career that he lost. Subedeus hid anger and did everything to take revenge on the Bulgars and wash off his shame with blood. The best commander of Genghis Khan. Thus, he was apparently instructed to organize an offensive on the Urals and the Volga region, spreading the power of the Great Khan. After the death of Juchi, the year of Subeda became the commander in chief of Batu Khan and the organizer of his campaigns in the Volga region.

But here he met the resistance of the Bulgar and was stopped. It took almost a decade that the Great Khan of the Uzedy agrees to organize a decisive hike to the West, to the limits, “where the Mongolian horse”, forcing all the Genghisides to speak under Bata banners. As a result of the campaign of the year, Bulgaria was captured, and its cities were ruined. His revenge happened.

But the campaign did not stop there. In the years, Subedei commanded the maneuvers of the troops that crushed the Russian principalities. In years, the main forces of the Mongol troops invaded Hungary and defeated her troops in the battle on the river. Shayo, while other buildings defeated Poles, Chekhov and Germans. The victorious onslaught to the west was stopped in the Dalmatia mountains, when Batu and other Genghisids received news of the death of the Great Khan and the need to return to the steppe of Mongolia to participate in the elected Kurultai.

The merit of Subedei in a successful campaign was undeniable and emphasized even by Batu Khan himself, who directly said on one of Kurultaev, emphasizing the role of this commander: “Everything that was captured at that time is the merit of Subedei.” After the victorious campaign in the year, Subeda returned to Mongolia, where he commanded the troops of his ulus.

The last campaign in which he participated was a campaign in the year under the command of Khan Chagatai to the South Song Empire. After that, he rested after forty years of bloody wars and campaigns.

He died in the year in his ulus on the river. The service of the khans was continued by his son Uryankhatai and the grandson of Ahu, who also became excellent commanders who won fame in battles for South China and Vietnam.We can say that it was the “frantic dog with the iron heart” of the subedies that became one of the greatest commanders, with iron and blood that created the Great Mongol Empire.
