Stormy life of Mikhail Stadukhin: thirst for profit, squabbles with the Cossacks and death in battle

64

Yakut jail of late imperial times

We invest in Siberian


Stadukhin was born not in Siberia, but in a place quite typical of its conquerors - in Pomorie, on the territory of today's Arkhangelsk region. It is hard to say which ways he got to Siberia. But by the 1640s, he had long felt like a fish in water.

Stadukhin did not hesitate to actively invest very substantial funds - tens and hundreds of rubles. He invested, equipping expeditions for sable at his own expense - precious skins at that time were the main motivating means to conquer and master Siberia in principle. Upon their return, the industrialists paid Stadukhin part of the production, which he quickly and profitably sold.



Of course, there was always a risk in such investments - hunters could be attacked by wild animals or unfriendly natives. But Stadukhin was not a stranger in Siberia and understood what he was investing in.

Last but not least, of course, because he himself did not crawl out of battles and campaigns.

In search of sable


For example, in 1641, Stadukhin was sent from Yakutsk to search for new lands in the east. Having successfully reached Oymyakon, he set up a small prison and imposed a sable tribute on the neighboring tribes.

It was only the beginning - the local Yukagirs became the more angry and organized, the further Stadukhin moved. From time to time, they organized grandiose, by the standards of the surrounding lands, battles with hundreds of participants for their part. There were ten times fewer Russians, but fortifications, equipment, and discipline did their job - they succeeded in fighting back.

In 1643, Stadukhin set up a winter house in Kolyma - in fact, a house surrounded by a stockade, and acted on the system of surrounding rivers, conquering and taxing the Yukagirs. In 1645, our hero, apparently, decided that he had collected all the "cream" from the surrounding lands, and, leaving 13 people in the winter hut, returned to Yakutsk.

In the same year, a huge army of five hundred Yukagirs fell upon the unfortunate, but fortunately the small garrison did not have to repeat the fate of Fort Navidad. The Russians managed to fight back by killing the leader. After that, the natives living in the conditions of the tribal society had much more important occupations, for example, sharing the inheritance of the murdered. And they fled.

Wild character


True, Stadukhin himself, with all his merits, did a lot to ensure that this was repeated more often. For example, when in 1647 he was again sent to Kolyma with the order to get to the still undeveloped lands and bring under the tributary relations of the still untouched natives, our hero found a simpler way.


Yukaghirs in 1902

Instead, he stumbled upon locals already laden with yasak (tribute), simply took and unceremoniously robbed them. And so they brought him more sables, in addition, and took his relatives hostage.

And, characteristically, Stadukhin did not have anything for it, although rash actions bore direct harm to Russian statehood in the region. Apparently, our hero managed to make good acquaintances in the Yakutsk prison.

Stadukhin did not stand on ceremony with Russian competitors. Once he tried to find the sea route to Anadyr, but with a joke with the harsh northern ocean turned out to be bad - the idea failed. Then in 1650, the indefatigable Michael began to look for a walking path. The Semen Motors squad did the same.

Not wanting to share future wealth, Stadukhin simply ordered his people to attack competitors, captured Motor and asked him to sign a paper that he would not look for ways to Anadyr. Instead, Motor was invited to return to the Yakutsk prison without sinking.

A second before happiness


Of course, I signed the motor paper, but it turned out to be not so simple. Departing for decency a certain distance, he went around Stadukhin and rushed to Anadyr with all his might. There, he, fortunately, found the already standing Russian prison and the head of there, Semyon Dezhnev.

The latter managed to do what Stadukhin failed a little earlier, that is, to pass by sea. True, I had to pay a serious price - all seven ships that went on a hike crashed on stones in different places. But Dezhnev managed not only to gather people and survive, but also to continue the expedition, begun with such a large scale.

Semyon Dezhnev

A little later, Stadukhin also came across a prison. You could expect dramas and massacres, but now the detachment of our hero was in the minority. Mikhail began to send intelligence, then thought for a long time, and in the end decided - the land here is poor for furs, there is nothing to catch. One has to look elsewhere. So let Dezhnev and Motor take this damned Anadyr to themselves, there’s nothing to profit from here anyway.

The poor thing, of course, could not even imagine that he voluntarily gave his competitors a real gold mine. After a while, Dezhnev stumbled upon huge colonies of walruses, whose tusks were valued no less than furs, and the skin and fat were very useful in the household.

Involuntary research


Not finding happiness on Anadyr, Stadukhin began to explore the Penzhina and Gizhiga rivers, as well as the coast of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk.

But there is no happiness here either - there is no sable around, there is nothing to get rich with. All this, of course, was accompanied by constant battles with the natives. Moreover, Stadukhin was particularly unlucky in the fact that they were not only meaner than usual, but also more organized. Therefore, it was necessary to erect small fortifications all the time, after which they sat there for a long time, defending themselves from superior forces.

As a result of all these adventures, our hero lost a lot of people: having gone on a campaign with fifty, in 1658 he came to the Okhotsk prison with only 14 people. Worse still, he found neither fur-ridden lands nor grand walrus camps. From the point of view of Stadukhin, all his ordeals were in vain.

But not from the point of view of Russia. Trying to find the Eldorado, Stadukhin explored a vast territory, plotted many rivers and met a huge number of tribes. His followers had a more or less concrete idea of ​​the lands east of Yakutsk and now they did not go anywhere at all.

The last battle


Admitting defeat, Stadukhin again returned to Yakutsk. And in 1666, the local clerk again decided to use his services - failure was failure, but determined and strong-willed people with command experience in any case were worth their weight in gold.

Stadukhin was given a small detachment and again sent to Kolyma. But our hero was not destined to get to the target - along the way his group was ambushed by the united Lamuts and Yukagirs.

At first, their plans were much larger - to attack one of the Russian prison. But, having received there on the first day, the natives retreated, after which they successfully stumbled upon the detachment of Stadukhin - and they killed everyone there, including the pioneer himself.

It is interesting that after this the natives did not go to their camps, but didn’t divide something and fell into a hitch already. The Lamuts won - the Yukaghirs followed Stadukhin and his people and were mercilessly cut. Such was the wild Siberian frontier - most often the problems in it were solved that way.

    An interesting and vividly written article about another hero of the Siberian "frontier". An enterprising businessman, chieftain of a bandit gang (who does not hesitate to eliminate competitors in any way and does not recognize the authority of the government) and a researcher of new lands. There were many of them in the history of Russia, and perhaps the most famous of them was Ermak Timofeevich. But others there and at that time simply would not have gone anywhere, simply would not have survived. It was such people, largely due to their exorbitant greed and ambition, who went ahead no matter what and ... as a result of the blank spots on the map of Siberia, the Far East and the Far North, it became less and less. Thanks to such, it does not matter whether they acted according to their own understanding or fulfilling the Tsar's will, Russia has grown in territories and new subjects, dispensing with colonies across the sea.

        That's just the point that as if were! In my opinion, the Russian lands in North America were formally colonies — yes, they were overseas, etc. But the level of colonization cannot be closely compared with the same Spaniards, Dutch, French, Portuguese, and especially the British, who, seizing new lands overseas - in Asia, Africa and both Americas, pumped out everything that was possible from them. And the Russian-American company in its activities is far from the East and West Indian companies, the Hudson's Bay Company and others. In Russia, at the state level, there was no interest in developing and developing overseas territories - if you could master your own Siberia and the Far East! There, at least, the fleet is not needed - a merchant to import and export valuables and a military to protect these shipments. Therefore, in the end, they got rid of possessions in America, having received almost nothing for them.
        Sincerely, Alexander.

              It makes sense to compare a bunch of UK / USA / Canada with Russia.
              The territory of the United States was almost completely "cleaned" of the peoples living there, with Russian lands east of the Urals. Alaska has suffered less from aliens than other states. first, this region was explored by Russian explorers.

        Why do they need a funeral procession? They will be taken from the camp and thrown out. By spring, Arctic foxes and drags will be circulated .. Previously, some northern peoples called Samoyeds and, it seems, not without reason, they could have concocted a colleague in the plague.

              request I did not find a definite answer to this question.
              I understood only that the Yukaghirs did not adhere to a strictly defined, distinctive, culture, and easily yielded in this regard to the influence of neighboring peoples, including elements of their culture in their own.
              In addition, the Yukaghirs were the first of the northern peoples to adopt Christianity, "fancifully" mixing it with "traditional" beliefs.

              Threat. That we are all about the dead. Let’s better listen to a good song in Yukagir.

              The modern author and performer of songs in the Yukagir language is Irina Duskulova.

                Beautiful girl, only these are the Ostyaks. It’s an old Muschin and a cloud, a boat, it doesn’t know how to chop. Very poor people living in very difficult conditions. When falling into the water, the Chukchi did not save anyone, it is a sacrifice to the water spirit, the deity. They could also charge an oar in the forehead so as not to violate reporting. I read that the Chukchi and the Eskimos were very afraid of meeting with killer whales, it seems that they destroyed everything in a row, with the arrival of white people, the attacks stopped. Maybe they sailed like a safari? and realizing that whites could destroy them, for their tricks, they stopped the attacks. A killer whale is capable of destroying any creature that has fallen into its water.

To the Finns, yeah, Mari, Karelians, Ests, Lopars, well, no way, it's like you are close relatives to the Negroes. Further, just a retelling does not make sense, in essence there was a quiet expansion east along the rivers, an example is all the names of settlements near the rivers (especially the larger Russians, move a little away and the names are not Russian at all, and in some places they don’t know the Russian language (it may surprise you but you can really get hit on the head for Russian speech in such places, and yes it's all Russia).

    It seems that the reindeer herders lived separately from each other, reindeer herders cannot roam in large societies, the deer quickly eats up everything in winter. And hunters shunned large societies, usually 2-3 families roamed. How did they manage to gather more than 3. In Yakutia they soon discovered a large number of mammoth tusks, at least it seems like there is such data. In the north, in the tundra, like a fox, there are many, or they did not pay attention to it when lemengi spread very much. Arctic fox generally became unmeasured. But the walrus skin of the Russians where it could go, the Chukchi and Eskimos made boats of them, yarangs somehow covered them, it is thick and practically cannot be processed. Fat was used for lighting and heating. Chukchi walrus meat was eaten. In Alaska, the Russians very much thinned out the population of sea cats and otters, there were so many skins that they were even thrown away. Then we went south. No one was engaged in the search for minerals. When the animals were killed, then Alaska was no longer needed by anyone, and it was abandoned.

    Well, right Nicholas! If we had lived at that time, all their actions would have been taken for granted. What is now considered a crime was then certainly in the order of things and did not cause any special emotions. If you do not take a specific * criminal * -killing, banditry, theft , and then it was punished in earnest.

          Vera, Khabarov was still that "alpha male" with criminal inclinations.
          Above the mouth of the Sungari, in June Khabarov met a Russian auxiliary party on the Amur River and nevertheless continued his retreat, having heard that the Manchus had gathered a large army against him - about six thousand. He stopped only in early August at the mouth of Zeya. From here on three ships down the Amur a group of rebels fled, taking with them weapons and gunpowder. Robbing and killing Daur, Ducher, and Nanai, they reached the Gilyak land and placed a prison there to collect yasak. Khabarov did not tolerate rivals. In September, he sailed down the Amur River to the Gilyak land and fired at the prison. The rebels surrendered on condition that they save their lives and looted booty. Khabarov “spared” them, ordering them to mercilessly beat them with batogs (why many died), and took all the booty for himself.

          Khabarov spent the second wintering on the Amur River in Gilyak land, and in the spring of 1653 he returned to Dauria, to the mouth of Zeya. In summer, his people swam up and down the Amur River, collecting yasak. The entire left bank of the Amur was empty: on the orders of the Manchu authorities, residents moved to the right bank. In August 1653, the tsar's envoy arrived in the detachment from Moscow. He brought awards from the tsar to the participants of the campaign, including Khabarov himself, but removed him from the leadership of the detachment, and when he began to object, he beat and drove to Moscow. On the way, the ombudsman took everything that was with him from Khabarov. In Moscow, however, his personal property was returned to the conqueror. The tsar granted him to the "boyar children", gave "villages" in several villages in Eastern Siberia, but did not allow him to return to the Amur.

          I will quote the phrase:
          Napoleon wished to “sanctify” his coronation with the personal presence of Pope Pius VII. Historians rummaged through the archives in order to find similar examples in the past. Napoleon himself did not tolerate historians, believing that only Caesars were able to judge Caesars (for the French, he believed, it was enough to remember that the whole history of France began with the 18th Brumaire). But I had to plunge into the darkness of ancient Europe in order to extract King Pepin Korotky from there, who was as real for the French as Tsar Gorokh for us Russians. Pepin became a real find for Napoleon, for in 754 he took the crown from the hands of Pope Stephen III
          “Pius should be,” Napoleon punished. “If he doesn’t come, I will shake him out of Rome like a pig from a sack.”
          ..........
          The coronation took place on December 2. Pope Pius VII and the newly-minted “Pepin Short” left the Tuileries Cathedral at ten o’clock in the morning. There was a very severe frost, the marshals and dignitaries carried frozen regalia, the imperial power - the scepter, sword and crown of Charlemagne, and the poor father froze so that he probably cursed the story of Stephen III, who had the stupidity to hand the crown to the robber Pipin Korotkiy ...
          (V.S. Pikul, "To Each His Own").
          Colleagues .. sometimes I get the impression ... And who were the first kings? what Yes, those who managed to gather around themselves a gang of unshaven gloomy personalities with a dracoly in their hands, and at the expense of this gang subdue the majority of disunited peisans. That is .. actually - yes, the leaders of those same bandits! request

    in 1641, Stadukhin was sent from Yakutsk in search of new lands in the east.
    ...
    when he was again sent to Kolyma in 1647
    ...
    captured Motor and asked him to sign a paper that he would not look for ways to Anadyr
    ...
    in 1666, the local clerk again decided to use his services

    I wonder who sent our Hero? I doubt that the clerk.
    What position and title did Stadukhin have?
    Who sent Motor and how was the incident in Yakutsk then "resolved"?

    ... It is interesting that after this the natives did not go to their camps, but didn’t divide something and fell into a hitch. The Lamuts won - the Yukagirs followed Stadukhin and his people and were mercilessly cut. Such was the wild Siberian frontier - most often the problems in it were solved that way.

    If everyone died, then from whom did they learn the details of what happened?
    Perhaps the Yukaghirs acted as allies of the Russians and were all cut, and "the victors wrote history"? How do you like this version?
    Really, you can’t fight everyone, probably the pioneers were looking for friends, for example, helping local allies against their opponents?

    The first question is where, ala, the Mongols ?, while all the crime was running there, while the white ice pioneered there, until the king believed the snowflakes, they didn’t find a single Mongol, not even a Tatar, well, there weren’t anyone there, but these do not even mention in the documents. In the 20th century, the Mongols were told about Genghis Khan, they were very surprised at such tales, and then they took a quick look and the business went there on this subject ...
