Battle of Gualar

[edit]

The Battle of Gualar was fought by Bombogor's Evenks and Shamshika's Qing troops and resulted in a Evenk victory against the Qing. [1]

Background

[edit]

The Qing began to subdue tribes such as the Hurka Nanai as they shifted their focus onto Outer Manchuria in the mid 1630s. Stiff resistance started to grow under the chieftain Dular Bombogor. Around 1,500 Manchu soldiers organized into 2 regiments were raised and sent to quell the unrest.

Battle

[edit]

There is no record of the battle.

Aftermath

[edit]

After the Evenki victory, Abahai (Hong Taiji) sent yet another force against Bombogor in December the next year. After 5 months they successfully pushed to siege the Yakesa, Duochen, Asajin and Duojin villages. Although more resistance kept the Qing at bay for some time, the Evenks began to lose numbers and eventually surrendered. Bombogor was later captured and executed in 1640, ending the conflict between his now gone confederacy and the Manchu.[2]
