Irbis Ishbara Yabgu Qaghan (full title: Yǐpíshābōluóyèhùkĕhàn 乙毗沙钵罗叶护可汗, personal name: Ashina Baobu 阿史那薄布) - was a Qaghan of Nushibi faction in Western Turkic Khaganate.

Reign

[edit]

He was a son of Genna Shad (伽那设), thus a nephew of El Kulug Shad.[1] However, according to some sources he was a son of Ashina Tong.[2] He was acknowledged as khagan by Taizong. Khagan sent governors to the Tarim Basin, Tashkent, Samarkand and Bactria to assert rule.[1] However, he was soon killed by men following orders of Yukuk Shad in 641.
