context: A year later, on August 31, 1735, the Orenburg fortress was laid at the confluence of Ori and Yaika. The initial place for the city was chosen during the expedition of the initiator of the development of the region I.K. Kirilov, who claimed that this city was needed "to open the way to Bukhara, Vodokshan, the Balk and India", which would allow to receive "wealth - gold stone lapis lazori and bark. " After his death, V.N. Tatishchev was appointed the head of the Orenburg expedition. It seemed to him that the place was too uncomfortable, moreover, it was flooded with spring floods. Strong floods of rivers in this place forced to begin in 1739 preparations for the construction of a new city with the same name downstream of the Yaik, on Red Mountain. On August 6, 1741, it was laid. The old city was called the Orsk Fortress (the current city of Orsk), but the construction of the city did not begin. The chosen place on the Red Mountain is treeless, rocky and remote from the river, also proved to be unsuitable for the construction of the city [5]. The new head of the commission was appointed I. I. Neplyuev. 30 [O.S. 1743] April, Orenburg was laid for the third time, on the site of the former Berdsky fortress (Berdsky town), 70 miles from the Krasnogorsk tract. Neplyuev personally chose in the summer of 1742 a new place at the confluence of the Sakmary River in Yaik, surrounded by forests and arable land. Now it is the historical center of the city. The fortress, built on Red Mountain, was called Krasnogorsk [6].
