Yes, I was surprised to know the tactics he have used in 13th century. He was damn smart and brutal. If he would have lived for another 40 years, he would have ruled the world.

travel distance was the weak link. He understood this, thus only one mongolian invasion. but that 1 invasion left EUROPE looking to the EAST for 300+ years for the next storm.
Yes, if he would have technology of today, he would destroy the whole world and bring it under his realm.
Yes, travel distance in that part of the world has always been a problem in history. We are only recently (recently in terms of modern society) capable of covering territory such as this. I agree with @loftee, he would have been devastating today. Imagine the Mongol army parachuting in from aircraft with machine guns. He would have armor piercing rounds I'm sure.
