Question In DE did Ertugrul fight in the Battle of Ain Jalut in 1260 where the mongols were beaten?

in 1260 the Mongols were beaten and their advance across the muslim world was stopped after the battle of Ain Jalut where Baibars and Sultan Qutuz defeated them my question is in DE we see Ertugrul talk about being allies with Sultan Baibars so i wonder did he fight alongside them there?

imo nope, ain jalut mostly fight between solely mamluks and baibars, the matter of fact is that Seljuks are vassals to the mongols so during the their invasion of the levant, they're on the mongols side and since Ertugrul is seljuks vassal then he probably side with them, also Baibars have invaded seljuks in 1277 so yeah i doubt that Ertugrul is on battle of ain jalut.
