From when Genghis Khan took power in 1206, the Mongols did not permanently lose a single battle until 1260 at the Battle of Ain Jalut (they'd lost temporarily before, only to come back and win soon after).
Note that Genghis Khan died in 1227, with an empire that was twice the size of the Roman Empire at its peak.
