It must be understood that these were contingents always kept up by the Princes, Nu-yans, Juzbis, and Bahadurs, to whom they were assigned, and not as being the entire amount, by any means, of the Chingiz Khan’s forces. They were capable of being expanded at any time. That such was usual, we have sufficient proof in the number of troops which Hulaku led into I-ran-Zamin, drawn from a portion of these contingents, some of which subsequently increased very much; and we are told that one of Chaghatae’s Hazarahs, in a short period of time, had increased to the number of 100,000. - [Previous: 271.5.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.271.5.1) - [Next: 271.5.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.271.5.3) - [Up: 271.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.271.5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.271.5.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.271.5.2) · Pramāṇa
