Battle of Yehuling (1211)
On the Mongol Empire map as “Yehuling (Wild Fox Ridge)”
1211 — Perhaps 300,000 Jin troops gather in the passes above the plain at Yehuling. The Mongols destroy them in detail. A decade later, travelers still describe the bones left behind. The Jin dynasty never again fields an army of comparable size.

Text consulted for historical facts; no map or prose copied Natural Earth. Public domain For the capture of Zhongdu, the 1216–1219 Mongol geometry supplies only the portion transferred from the 1206–1215 Jin outline. The remainder of Jin territory uses the closest record, dated 1216–1226.
Published polity extents are used at the date resolution available in their sources. Hatched affected regions and route arrows are educational reconstructions; the source details distinguish them from imported boundaries.
Chapter anchor 1215.5 uses the existing snapshot s1215 (1215.4). The lesson date remains separate from the source reference dates.
