[edit] Sources?

Some facts of the article is so far from the truth. So I added some sentences with refence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Enerelt (talkcontribs) 09:01, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Enerelt - I'm afraid I missed your comment here earlier. Looking closely at your additions, I see that you did add a reference, which I missed because it wasn't showing with the other references at the bottom of the page. Can you please provide an English language source for your additions? Such dramatically different numbers (from "unknown" to "over 100,000") should be supported by a source more easily accessible to the average English-speaking Wikipedia editor.

Dear Kafka Liz,

Thank you for editing the article carefully. I am sorry I can not offer you any books in english except John Man's one. But I guess he made a mistake on general's name. He thought Nasar Addin commanded both first battles. As you know Marco Polo had already described the battle which was commanded by mongol general. I have sources only in russian and mongolian.
