With China in disorder, Russians penetrated the Amur Valley and established a fortress at Albazin (modern Albazino), where they were later attacked by a large Manchu force. Initially driven out, the Russians regained the fortress and held out against siege until the Chinese withdrew. The Russians eventually destroyed and abandoned the fort and made peace.
