Yalangtoʻsh Bahodir (Persian: پابرهنه قیمت است) 1578, Bukhara, Bukhara Khanate - 1656, Samarkand, Bukhara Khanate), a major representative of the military-owning nobility during the Ashtarkhanid era. He belonged to the Olchin tribe of Uzbeks and served as the governor of Samarkand since 1626.[1][2][3][4][5] Yalangtosh Bahadir was brought up under Bukhara Khan Abdulla Khan[6]
Correct spelling of name
[edit]In the documents related to him, his name is written as Yalangtosh biy.[7] The name of this commander in the form of Yalangtoshbi is found in written sources written both in the Bukhara Khanate and in the Safavid state.[8]
In the historiography of the Russian Empire, he was called only Yalangtushbi.[9] Brockhaus and Yefron named him "Yalantush Bahadur" in their encyclopedic dictionary.
Only the name Yalangtushbi is used in world oriental literature.[10][11][12][13]
The name of Boykhoja's son Yalantash is engraved on the tombstone.[14]
The name "Yalantosh Bohodur" is engraved in the modern Uzbek language on the stone tablet placed next to his grave.
Education
[edit]Yalangtush-biy was educated in Bukhara in a kuttab and madrasah during the reign of the Uzbek khan Abdullah Khan. According to written sources, Yalangtush-biy's career developed as follows: his father Boykhoji was an emir - one of the highest dignitaries of the Shibanid khans in Bukhara, so Yalangtush-biy was raised from childhood at the court of the Bukhara khans from the Shibanid dynasty.[15] At school, Yalangtush-biy studied Persian. All legal documents drawn up on his behalf, including the inscription on one of the madrassas on Registan Square, are written in Persian.[16]
Origin
[edit]Nalangtosh Bahadir was born in Bukhara.
Nalangtosh Bahadir was from the alchin (cherry) clan of Uzbeks.[17][8] His father was called Boykhoji. His father and his son were students of Khoja Hashim Dahbetii,[5][18] a descendant of the famous Naqshbandi Sufi leader Mahdumi Azam (1461-1542). Yalangtoshbi and his daughters: Iqlima bonu, Ayibibi were buried in the cemetery in Dahbet, under the feet of Khoja Hashim Dahbeti. According to the document of 1643, it was his literate son Boybek.[19] But he died before his father, according to the document of 1650, he died.[7]
Literacy and subsequent political activity
[edit]In Bukhara, he learned the science of management and military work very early. At this event, the mayor notices Yalangtosh's high intelligence for his age.
Yalangtosh knew the Persian-Tajik language very well. All legal documents drawn up in his name, as well as an inscription in one of the madrasas on Registan Square, are written in Persian-Tajik.[16]
After the death of Baqi Muhammad Khan janid dynasty in 1605, Yalangtosh first supported Vali Muhammad Khan, and then in 1611 he opposed him by supporting another Ashtarkhanid ruler, Imam Qulikhan.[20] As a result, in 1612, the new khan appointed Yalangtosh as the amir (representative) of Samarkand, and later as the patriarch.
He owned large areas in various parts of Central Asia. For example, on April 30, 1650, a will was drawn up about "buying 2/6 of a garden and 2/6 of land in Posarchak quarter of Shovdar district of Samarkand from Niyozbek and Khojibek, sons of Boyhojibi, son of Yalantoshboy Ashura Qushbegi, for 1000 coins.".[7]
Yalangtush and Abdulaziz Khan
[edit]In 1645, Abdulaziz Khan ascended the throne in Bukhara and, probably, Yalangtushbiy was again appointed khokim of Samarkand.[21]
In 1646, Abdulaziz Khan came to the aid of the Kazakhs in the fight against the Dzungars.[21]
Military services
[edit]In 1611, he actively participated in the enthronement of Imam Qulikhan. After that, the position of Yalangtosh Bahadur increased, he began to rule Samarkand practically independently from 1626. He was given the title of father. Yalangtosh was Bahadur's own army, and as a result of his raids on the surrounding districts, he collected a lot of material resources. Yalangtosh Bahadir actively participated in all military operations of the Bukhara Khanate. For example, in 1623 and 1631, when the Iranian troops came to Balkh province, a large army led by Yalangtosh Bahadir came to the aid of the Governor of Balkh, Nadr Muhammad Khan.
In 1640, Imam Quli Khan sent a message to Moscow through ambassadors, stating that he was ready to send 12 amirs and a large army under the leadership of Yalangtosh Bahadur to fight the Russian state against the Kalmyks. In 1642, when Imam Quli Khan became blind, Yalangtosh Bahadir and other emirs brought Nadr Muhammad from Balkh and put him on the throne. Nadr Muhammed Yalangtosh gave Darai Suf region, Molgan, Kahmerd and the Tulchichi, Saiganchi, Zirangi, Kilachi, Hazaranikudari tribes around Kabul with their herbs in the form of iqta. In 1645, Yalangtosh Bahadir quarreled with Nadr Muhammad Khan in Bukhara and led the revolt of the emirs against the Khan in Khojand. The rebels marched to Bukhara, taking Sultan Abdulaziz, who was sent from Bukhara to suppress the rebellion, as a prisoner. In Oktepa region west of Bukhara, they proclaimed Abdulaziz Khan and then besieged the capital. Nadr Muhammad Khan was forced to leave the city after a 3-month siege. He asked the Baburis for help from Shah Jahan. In 1646, Shah Jahan sent his youngest son Muradbakhsh with a large army to Balkh. Instead of protecting the Balkh province, this army invaded it. The Baburites ruled Balkh for more than 2 years, but they could not establish themselves there. In the summer of 1648, Abdulaziz Khan marched to Balkh with an army of 200,000 people and recaptured this region from the Baburites, which included an army led by Yalangtosh Bahadur.
Barefoot Bahadir was distinguished by his determination and military pragmatism and earned the title of hero.
In 1612, he led the soldiers of Imam Quli Khan and conquered Tashkent and Turkestan.[22]
In 1612, Imamkuli Khan led his soldiers to battle against Kazakh Khan Esimkhan.
In 1614, he marched to Khurasan, and in 1618 to Herat. In the 1620s, he fought in the territory of present-day Afghanistan, protecting the southern borders of the Ashtarkhanid state.
In 1621, Tursun became the commander-in-chief of the Ashtarkhanid army when repelling the attack of the Kazakh warriors of the sultan.[23]
In 1628, on the orders of Imam Quli Khan, Kazakh Abuli killed Sultan in Tashkent and forced him to flee to Kashgar.[24]
In 1636, the army of Imamkuli Khan, led by Yalangtosh, marched to Sayram and attacked the surrounding Kazakh tribes. The walk extended to the Kipchak steppes.[25]
In 1640, the army led by Yalangtosh destroyed the Dzungars who invaded the lands of Kazakhs and nomadic Uzbeks. Later, Yalangtosh became the head of the district (commander of an army of 10,000 people). The military invasion of the Dzungars did not end, and later the Dzungars launched devastating attacks on the Zhetysu lands. Barefoot Bahadir comes from Samarkand with a well-armed military unit of 30,000 men to collect taxes from the Kazakhs. The army of Yalangtosh helps to liberate Zhetysu from the invading Dzungars under the leadership of Batir-huntoyji.
In 1643, Yalangtosh Bahadir came to the aid of the Kazakh Khan Jangir Khan in the battle of Orbulok. This time, 20,000 soldiers were enough to influence the change of the battle in a positive direction.
In 1646, a conflict arose between Bukhara Khan Abdulaziz Khan and Shah Jahan. Both the Khanate of Bukhara and the Great Mongol Empire claimed the important cities of Khurasan and Balkh. As a result, war broke out. According to Khajamquli Balkhi's historical source "History of Kipchakkhani", Yalangtosh Bahadir, on the instructions of Abdulaziz Khan, formed an army of 100 thousand people consisting of Bukhara warriors and Kazakh volunteer soldiers and defeated the army of Shahjahan. This time, Jangir Khan from the Kazakh steppes comes to help the Ashtarkhanids and Yalangtosh. Later, Yalangtosh made many successful campaigns, captured and plundered Mashhad, and brought many captive masters from there.
