Alp Bilge[1] Qağan[2] (Chinese: 賀臘毗伽可汗; pinyin: Hèlà Píjiā Kèhán) or Eletmiş Qağan[3] (Chinese: 頡跌伊(蜜)施可汗; pinyin: Xiédiēyī(mì)shī Kèhán) was a Basmyl chief who rebelled and brought Second Turkic Khaganate to an end.

Reign

[edit]

His personal name was Ashina Shi (阿史那施)[4] was a grandson of Ashina Duoxifu (阿史那咄悉匐), thus a grand-nephew to Ilterish and Qapaghan khagans.[citation needed] He successively fought against three Tujue leaders - Pan Kul Tigin, Kutluk Yabgu Khagan and Ozmish Qaghan.

In 742, he appointed Karluks to leadership of right wing and Uyghurs to leadership of left wing. However, he was soon deposed by Uyghurs, which signalled beginning of Uyghur Empire.
