Campaigns
- Attempted bribery of Shamil with a promise of power over Dagestan to secure his appearance before Nicholas I in Tiflis, and the summoning of the Chechen imam Tashu-Hadji (1837)
General Adlerberg conveyed Nicholas I's will to general Rozen in a letter of 10 August 1837: "that Shamil and his chief accomplices Tashav-Hadji, Kibit-Magomet and the Qarakh qadi Abdurrahman be given suggestions to take advantage of His Majesty's arrival in the Caucasus region and to beg the mercy of appearing before the face of the Monarch Himself"
At the same time colonel Pullo demanded of Shamil by letter that he send "to the Groznaya fortress two deputies to be presented to the Sovereign" - and this competing demand, as the imperial historian Yurov admits, "greatly hindered the success" of the recruitment
Shamil refused in a letter to Klugenau of 28 September 1837: "I have resolved not to go to Tiflis even if I am cut to pieces, because I have many times seen treachery from you"
