Impt--First Mongol Invasion of Hungary--Genghis's grandsons under the brilliant general Tsubodai--

So brilliant in the days before trains, wireless,telephones, internet, GPS,

Tsubodia planned and executed 5 difft raids of Hungary

and raids of Moscow--so the battles were all on specific days.

Before that in another war (against Arabs--by Genghis)--Tsobodai scouted out the area N of present day Iran, Caspian Sea etc.

Hungarian, Russian invasion was after Genghis had died.

Read all about it in Conn Iggulden's Genghis novels.
