History
The Battle of Toksun took place in this county in July 1933 when Khoja Niyas Hajji, a Uighur leader, defected with his forces to Governor Sheng Shicai. He advanced to Toksun via Dawan Ch'eng, where the Chinese Muslim forces of General Ma Shih-ming achieved victory over Niyas Hajji's forces.{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IAs9AAAAIAAJ&q=Ma+Shih-ming+khoja|title=Warlords and Muslims in Chinese Central Asia: a political history of Republican Sinkiang 1911-1949|author=Andrew D.

In December 2010, Zeng Lingquan ({{lang|zh-hans|曾令权}}), who ran an adoption agency for the physically and mentally disabled with no operation license in Sichuan, was arrested. Zeng reportedly sent the mentally ill to work in a factory run by Li Xinglin ({{lang|zh-hans|李兴林}}) where they were enslaved and worked year round (instead of seasonally as with other local factories) in unsafe conditions at the Jia'ersi Green Construction Material Chemical Factory ({{lang|zh-hans|佳尔思绿色建材化工厂}}) in Kümüx.{{cite web|url=http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2010-12/14/content_11701899.htm|title=Asylum owner detained for selling mentally ill|date=14 December 2010|access-date=23 June 2020|website=China Daily}}{{cite web|url=https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/dfpd/2010-12/14/content_11698840.htm|script-title=zh:智障包身工遭奴役：黑工厂老板逃逸 新疆警方跨省抓捕|language=zh-hans|date=14 December 2010|access-date=30 June 2020|website=China Daily|quote={{lang|zh-hans|目前，托克逊县库米什佳尔思绿色建材化工厂已被查封，}}}}
