Khagan of Rouran
Yujiulü Futu (Chinese: 郁久閭伏圖; pinyin: Yùjiǔlǘ Fútú ) (died 508) was khagan of the Rouran (506–508) with the title of Tuohan Khagan (佗汗可汗)[1] or Tahan Khagan (他汗可汗). He was the first son of Yujiulü Nagai.
Reign
In 506, he succeeded his father as khagan of the Rouran. His first act was to send Hexi Wuiliba (紇奚勿六跋), a Rouran envoy to Northern Wei emperor Xuanwu in order to make peace. However, emperor ordered the ministers to convey to the ambassador that the Rouran are descendants of slaves, the former emperors only communicated with them out of mercy and the Rouran will soon lose their lands. Again in 507, Futu sent the emperor a letter and sable fur. The emperor replied that peace with Northern Wei could be earned by fighting the Gaoche. However, this war proved disastrous as in 508 he was killed in battle by the Gaoche ruler Mi'etu (彌俄突). He was succeeded by his son Yujiulü Chounu same year.
