October 1826 CE

The Russian forces are a few miles from Tabriz by October 13.

The garrison flees, driven out, it is said, by the inhabitants.

The gates are opened and the ancient and wealthy city of sixty thousand inhabitants is occupied without opposition.

Peace negotiations begin immediately, but will drag on.
