After this the Emperor bestowed Ahmadabad and its dependencies upon Mirza 'Askari in jagir, Nahrwala Patan upon Mirza Yadgar Nasir, and Broach upon Mirza Hindu Beg. Tardi Beg received Champanir, and Kasim Husain obtained Baroda. Khan-jahan Shirazi and other nobles also received grants. The Emperor proceeded after these successes to Burhanpur, and from thence to Mandu. After a time one of the nobles of Sultan Bahadur prepared a fortified position in the neighbourhood of Nausari, which is near to Surat, and proceeded to collect forces. He took possession of Nausari, and having associated Rumi Khan of Surat with Khan-jahan Shirazi, they marched against Broach. Kasim Husain, being unable to withstand them, fled to Champanir. The Gujaratis then rose and carried on offensive movements on every side.
