The time of the Tatar-Mongol invasion is considered one of the most memorable, painful and bloody periods in the history of Russia. This period was long and painful for the Russian lands; the Golden Horde did not want to stop at anything to achieve its goal. However, history written in dry and detached language is not as interesting to read as works replete with vivid descriptions that clearly convey the atmosphere of that time. The trilogy about the Mongol invasion, written by Vasily Yan, can be classified as one of those works that immerse you in the events described so much that you seem to see everything with your own eyes.

The book “Batu” was the second in the series, and it talks about the grandson of Genghis Khan, who began his campaigns of conquest. The grandson of the legendary Khan Batu decided to continue his grandfather’s campaigns and not deviate from his plans. He was sure that enemies must be destroyed mercilessly, there is no place for pity. Rus' was then still a fragmented state, which was its weakness. But even in this state she was able to defend herself, people hoped that better times would come. Even after the Ryazan, Moscow and Vladimir lands were destroyed, there was still hope.

The writer talks about the state of the lands of Rus' and what people had to endure. It also shows how difficult everything was in the Mongol camp. They gathered their hordes for a campaign, but meanwhile there were constant feuds and intrigues in their ranks. The narration is reminiscent of an old epic or legend, which gives the book a special charm. It tells about sacrifices and suffering, losses, courage, as well as about betrayal and lack of forgiveness, the contempt that arouses in everyone who has at least once betrayed their own.

About the book “Batu” Vasily Yan

The work “Batu” is the second part of the trilogy “Invasion of the Mongols”, which was written by the Russian writer, author of historical novels Vasily Yan.

The novel “Batu” encourages the reader to deeply comprehend the historical events associated with the conquest of the principalities of ancient Rus' by the Mongol-Tatar army under the leadership of the merciless Khan Batu. The first part of the novel is devoted to a description of the Mongol-Tatar warriors, their rulers and the features of the events taking place in the Mongol-Tatar state.

In the process of reading the first chapters of the work “Batu”, some sympathy and even sympathy arises for their participants - they are described so soulfully by the author. However, continuing to study this very tragic story for Rus', which tells about the terrible suffering of the Russian people that they experienced during the conquests of Batu Khan, the former feeling of sympathy is sure to give way to anger.

Vasily Yan touches on the topic of the cause of the defeat of the Russian principalities in the novel “Batu”. He clearly sees this reason in the fragmentation of individual principalities, their competition among themselves and the reluctance of the Russian princes to unite in the fight against the Mongol-Tatars.

The events of the novel paint a terrible picture of Batu Khan and his army rampaging through the Russian lands. Batu, having offered the prince of the Ryazan lands to give him a tenth of everything he has, receives the son of Prince Fyodor Yuryevich. Having received the princely gifts, Batu kills his guest because he did not want to give him his beautiful wife. Then he demands that the Ryazan principality send women to him, to which the prince refuses, trying to find support among other principalities, but to no avail. After this, the Mongol-Tatars attacked the Russian principality.

Many people died in the fight against the Mongol-Tatar army, trying to defend their land. The events of this difficult time are chilling and painful, but they are part of our history.

Vasily Yan was born in 1874 in Kyiv. He studied at St. Petersburg University at the Faculty of History and Philology. He traveled a lot, which helped him in his literary work.

He worked for various newspapers and was a Latin teacher at a high school. His works include “The Phoenician Ship”, “Spartacus”, “On the Wings of Courage”, “Ermak’s Campaign”, “Zarathustra’s Blue Jay”, “Buffoon’s Fun” and many others.
