When the officers of the garrison saw that the place was no longer tenable, they made their escape at night in boats. Rumi Khan received many rewards. The gunners of the fort were maimed by His Majesty's orders. At this time, Sher Khan Afghan was carrying on war against the ruler of Bengal, who fled wounded before him, and sought refuge with the Emperor Humayun. The Emperor then marched against Bengal. Sher Khan then sent his sons Jalal Khan and Khawas Khan to secure Garhi, which was situated on the road to Bengal. This Garhi is a strong place. On one side of it there is a high mountain and a large jungle quite insurmountable, and the river Ganges runs near to the other side. The place stands between Bihar and Bengal. The Emperor sent Jahangir Beg Mughal against Garhi. Hindal Mirza accompanied the Emperor to Mungir, and afterwards he was sent towards Agra against Muhammad Sultan Mirza, Ulugh Mirza, and Shah Mirza, who had fled from His Majesty, and were creating disturbances in the country. Muhammad Zaman Mirza, when he found that he met with no success in Gujarat, sent ambassadors to the Emperor at Agra, suing for pardon. - [Previous: 1.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.3.5) - [Next: 1.3.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.3.7) - [Up: 1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.1.3.6) · Pramāṇa
