Shah Bidagh Khan, observing the condition of affairs, hastened forward, and in the heat of the fight was unhorsed. His son 'Abdu-l Matlab Khan rushed forward to rescue his father; but just at that juncture a party of the enemy made a charge and took Bidagh Khan prisoner, and it was only by dint of great exertion that 'Abdu-l Matlab made his escape. Mir Mu'izu-l Mulk was compelled to turn his back and flee. Raja Todar Mal and Lashkar Khan, who were in reserve, struggled valiantly till night, and maintained their position; but as the centre had been driven away, their efforts were fruitless. Next day all the defeated forces assembled in one place, and made for Kanauj, after sending a report of the engagement to His Majesty. - [Previous: 27.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.27.4) - [Next: 27.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.27.6) - [Up: 27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.27) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.27.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.27.5) · Pramāṇa
