Kondurcha River, Battle of the

Years: 1391 - 1391

The Battle of the Kondurcha River is the first major battle of the Tokhtamysh–Timur war.

It takes place at the Kondurcha River, in the Bulgar Ulus of the Golden Horde, in what today is Samara Oblast in Russia.

Tokhtamysh's cavalry tries to encircle Timur's army from the flanks.

However, the Central Asian army withstands the assault, after which its sudden frontal attack puts the Horde troops to flight.

However, many of the Golden Horde troops escape to fight again at Terek.
