The Auro-Quenminese War, also known as the Aurucolian War and the Tân Mùi War by the Quenminese, was a military conflict that pitted the Lận Dynasty and the Aurucolian Empire. The war formed another theater of the Sandoric Wars, with battles going as far as the Hindalesian islands and the Formosa Strait. The conflict was an attempt for Aurucolian economic supremacy in Southeast Asianna.

The conflict began with the Raid at Hoi An, where Renátó Orsós, commander of the Aurucolian East Indiae Company contingent in Southeast Asianna, raided the governor's house and burned and looted half of the city, including murdering employees of the Imperial East Indiae Company. Hearing of the news, Emperor Sùng Khang issued a call to arms to expel Aurucolian presence.

As Sandor I abdicated from the Aurucolian throne, the Aurucolians withdrew troops from Quenmin and Bactieu despite the wish of Lord Triệu Ninh. However, the Aurucolians agreed to provide limited support to prolong their civil war against the Imperial Quenminese government.
