VIII. Tartars being under the protection of the Porte, the empress remonstrated upon the subject, and demanded satisfaction ; but the sultan, in his reply, excused him- self from interfering in the matter, upon the pretext that it was impossible to keep those roving bands under proper restraint. This evasive reply was precisely what Anna anticipated, and as the sultan declined to render her any atonement, she undertook to obtain retri- bution for herself. A force was immediately despatched into... the country of the Tartars, which they overran, spreading ruin on their path, and destroying the marauders in great numbers. The expedition failed, however, in consequence of the incautious advance of the troops too far into the interior, where, not being prepared with a sufficient stock of provisions, they un- derwent severe privations, and sustained a loss of 10, 000 men. But this discomfiture did not divert the empress from her grand design ; and in the year 1?35", count Munich, at the head of a sufficient force, was sent into the Ukraine, with a free commission to retaliate upon the Tartars.
