Russian Russian Archers were sent to Kabarda in 1589, and the Kabardian princes, together with Russian soldiers, defeated Prince Sholokhov, a supporter of the Crimean Turks.

History

[edit]

In 1583, the Turkish army under the command of Osman Pasha, moving from Transcaucasia through Kabarda to the Crimea, suffered significant damage from attacks by Kabardian detachments under the command of Mamstryuk Temryukovich. The Grebensky and Tersk Cossacks acted with him.

In 1588, Kabardian princes Mamstryuk Temryukovich and Kudenet Kambulatovich, at the head of a large delegation, arrived in Moscow, where they were received with honors by Tsar Fyodor Ivanovich. The princes asked the tsarist government for military assistance for defense against the Ottoman Turks and Crimean Tatars.

In the following year, 1589, a detachment of archers was sent to Kabarda. The Kabardian princes, together with Russian soldiers, defeated the possessions of Prince Sholokha Tapsarokovich, a supporter of the Crimean-Turkish orientation.
