The correct answer is **D. by using superior organization and military tactics**.
The Mongols, under the leadership of Genghis Khan and his successors, were able to create a vast empire due to their highly organized military structure, effective communication, innovative tactics, and adaptability in warfare. They employed strategies such as feigned retreats, use of cavalry, and psychological warfare, which allowed them to defeat larger and more established armies.
