The &lt;a href="Albazin"&gt;Albazin/Yakesa&lt;/a&gt; Campaign of between 1685 and 1687 marked an end of the Sino-Russian border conflicts. Qing government asked the Russian captives if they would stay and serve the Qing emperor. Some of them expressed their royalty to Qing dynasty, some of them did not. Those who did not wish to serve in China were sent back to Russia. Those who wish to stay were settled in Beijing. The Qing government provided these immigrants with housing and cemeteries. The government also arranged their marriages (if they did not have a spouse).
