Irbis Bolun Si Yabghu Qaghan (full title: Yǐpíbōluōsìyèhùkèhán 乙毗钵罗肆叶护可汗; personal name: Ashina Xili 阿史那咥力) was a khagan in the Western Turkic Khaganate between 631–633 or 630–632.[1]
Reign
He was raised to throne by the support of Nushibi tribes as well as Nishu a cousin of him. However he was not more successful than his predecessor. He couldn't control Syr-Tardush tribes and he executed so many people that even his former partisan Nishu planned to escape. After losing his supporters and prestige he escaped to south in 633. Nishu (with titular name Dulu Khagan) succeeded him[2].
Later years
He tried to raid the city of Balkh (now in north Afghanistan), but was killed in the clash.[3]
