1099 was during the time frame and yet the West managed to move an army 2,000 miles and win. Nothing compares with the West’s ability to form an army and send it off to fight. Even elite non-West forces like the Jannisaries were pretty low quality.
Except that 1099 is pretty much a blip and crusader armies in the Levant will mostly lose, even against enemies as fragmented as they are. As for the Janissaries - there were 11,000 of them in 1527 and 40,000 by 1609...
They were not a small elite, but a mainstay infantry force for the field army. To say that they were less than successful is also just silly. They won from Hungary to Mesopotamia, Egypt and North Africa.
If they were not as hyper-specialized for combat in the hills and mountains of Austria, it is because - unlike Hapsburg armies - they had a much wider range of threats and terrain they needed to be able to fight in. Read Chase, Firearms, (2003)
They still moved the army 2,000 miles... and there was no counter army moved 2,000 miles into Europe. Non-West victories over West are rare!and usually require overwhelming numerical superiority and/or divided West opposition.
