May 1861 CE

The Russians had sent a launch to explore the eastern coast of Tsushima Island on May 13, 1861, despite the presence of two Saga Domain warships, Kankō Maru and Denryū Maru, as well as one British warship.

On May 21, 1861, a clash takes place between the Russian sailors of a launch and a group of samurai and farmers, in which one farmer is killed and one samurai, who soon commits suicide, is captured by the Russians.
