### [75.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.75.7)

When the Imperial army reached Mongir, 'Asi Kabuli and the Kakshals, and Mirza Sharafu-d din Husain with 30,000 horse, and 500 elephants, and with war-boats and artillery, in battle order, advanced to meet the Imperial army. Raja Todar Mal had no confidence in the (cohesion of the) adventurers composing the enemy's army, and deeming it inexpedient to fight, he occupied the fort of Mongir, and throwing up other fortifications around it, he kept that position. Every day combats occurred between the men of the outposts. When these proceedings were reported to the Emperor, he on one occasion sent Zainu-d din Kambu by dak-chauki with a lac of rupees for the expenditure of the army. Some days after, he sent the same amount by the hands of Darya Khan ab-dar, and so on by different persons. At different times he sent a great deal of money.
