The Xiongnu folks were a mixture between some nomadized Sinic people and Proto-Turkic people.

And the Mongols were a mixture between Turkic people and Khitans.

Genghis Khan's main enemy was the Jin/Jurchen Dynasty (ancestor of the Manchus), and it was his offspring the one who had conquered half part of Europe.

The Tungusic Jurchens/Manchus and Mongols were also long time rivals, and when one side became stronger, and it would also dream to subjugate the other side.

The Mongol Empire emerged from the unification of nomadic tribes in the Mongol homeland under the leadership of Genghis Khan, who was proclaimed ruler of all Mongols in 1206. The empire grew rapidly under the rule of him and his descendants, who sent invasions in every direction.

Originating in the steppes of Central Asia, the Mongol Empire eventually stretched from Central Europe to the Sea of Japan, extending northwards into Siberia, eastwards and southwards into the Indian subcontinent, Indochina, and the Iranian plateau, and westwards as far as the Levant and Arabia.

The Battle of Yehuling, literally the Battle of Wild Fox Ridge, was a major decisive battle fought between the Mongol Empire and Jurchen-led Jin dynasty during the first stage of the Mongol conquest of the Jin dynasty. The battle was fought between August and October 1211 at Yehuling (野狐嶺; lit. "Wild Fox Ridge"), which is located northwest of present-day Wanquan District, Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province. The battle, which concluded with a decisive Mongol victory, was followed by the assassination of the Jin emperor, Wanyan Yongji, by one of his generals. It also hastened the weakening and decline of the Jin dynasty.

Yes but I believe Genghis Khan was a ruthless and cruel man. He killed many innocents.
