these are not Mongols. These soldiers are TURKISH soldiers. The bows which are used by them are TURK's bow.
EDIT: Mongol troops incorporated many northern Turkish steppe tribes. The bows depicted may be the smaller bows of the Turkish nomads within the Mongol army of the 13th century or an inaccurate rendition of the larger compound bows of the Mongol cavalry.
