The Battle of Kuialnyk took place between the Zaporozhian Cossacks and Crimean Khanate-Budjak-Ottoman Janissary forces, when the Cossacks were returning from their campaign in Wallachia, resulting in Cossack victory and capture of Budjak Murza, at the beginning of 1672.
Prelude
Ivan Sirko and Mykhailo Khanenko jointly took part in a campaign into Wallachia, where they ravaged several settlements and were returning with loot. Cossacks were passing through the lands of Budjak Horde and were in the steppe beyond Kuialnyk. They encountered Crimean lord Saltan Nureddin, who was moving from Ochakiv together with Budjak Murza Tenmambet, while being accompanied by Ottoman Janissaries with cannons.
Battle
Saltan Nureddin was meant to head to Crimea while Murza Tenmambet was heading to Budjak after assisting Doroshenko for 4 months, but encountered Cossacks and entered into battle with them on Kuialnyk river. Tatar-Turkish forces attempted to fire at Cossacks from cannons, but these cannons exploded and didn't inflict any casualties on Cossacks. Cossacks defeated the Tatar-Turkish forces and Saltan Nureddin fled to Crimea. Murza Tenmambet was wounded in battle and captured by the Cossacks, along with other 3 Tatars.
Aftermath
After this battle, Cossacks reached the Bug where Sirko's Cossacks expected a pay for their work, but they were promised to only be paid after giving further assistance to Polish king in Ukrainian cities. However, Sirko's Cossacks weren't paid for their work, which made them dissatisfied and they blamed Sirko for switching to the side of Poland-Lithuania, threatening to return to Tsardom of Russia. Sirko himself eventually returned to Left-Bank where he seeked to be pardoned by Russian Tsardom.
