Uqturpan County in the context of Khojis
Khojis (Uyghur: خوجىس, Manchu: ᡥᠣᠵᡳ᠍ᠰ, Chinese: 霍集斯; pinyin: Huòjísī, died 1781) was a Muslim Uyghur Emir, or hākim beg, of Uqturpan (also Us-Turfan, Chinese: 烏什, Wushi) in Xinjiang during the 18th century.
Khojis collaborated with Qing forces in the 1755-1757 Dzungar–Qing War, when he captured the Dzungar Khanate leader Dawachi as he fled into the mountains north of Aksu, and delivered him to the Qing.
