Draft:Kabardian offensive
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On October 10, 1779, the principalities of Chemguy, Besleney and Kabarda jointly coordinated the offensive. The leaders were Misostiko Bat and Kaunshayko Adiljeri. As a result, the Russian armies temporarily withdrew from Circassia.Catherine II considered the situation in Kabarda so serious that in July 1779 she issued a secret order authorizing freedom of action for Russian troops in Kabarda. "... We command," we read in the order, "to curb them (Kabardians), to organize a detachment of troops and bring them into proper obedience."
