Kalij Khan came up on the left, and becoming engaged, he bore back the enemy a little. But reinforcements were brought up by the enemy, and Kalij Khan and Tolak Khan were repulsed, and fell back a bow-shot distance. The men whom I had dismounted, while the enemy was pushing after Kalij Khan, finding the way clear, ascended the hill. When the enemy returned, they attacked us, and many men were killed. Kalij Khan had found some shelter and held his ground. I sent to Mirza Khan for the elephant guns (hath-nal). They were brought up upon the elephants, and we discharged several guns against the spot where Muzaffar was standing. Naurang Khan now came up the mountain which covered the enemy's left, and got the command of his position. When the balls from the elephant guns fell in the midst of Muzaffar's division, he fled, and great numbers of his men were taken prisoners or killed. The Imperial arms obtained a complete victory. Mirza Khan returned, and came to Ahmadabad, where he busied himself in arranging the affairs of the army and the peasantry. He left Kalij Khan and \* \* the other Malwa amirs to proceed against Broach. For seven months he remained in Ahmadabad, and at the end of that time the fort of Broach was captured. Charkas Rumi, who had deserted Kutbu-d din Muhammad Khan to join Muzaffar, and was appointed by him commandant of the fortress of Broach, was taken in the fort, and executed. - [Previous: 78.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.2.5) - [Next: 78.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.2.7) - [Up: 78.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.78.2.6) · Pramāṇa
