He then continued his journey to Kashmir, and when he arrived near Bhimbhar, which is at the beginning of the mountain passes, he received intelligence that his army, having made five or six marches in the mountains, had been attacked by a force of Kashmiris and men belonging to Yadgar, who had blockaded the pass of Kartal. But these men were unable to hold their ground against the brave soldiers of the army, and took to flight. Yadgar came up as far as Hamirpur with a large force to oppose the progress of the royal army; but in the course of the night a party of Afghans and Turkomans belonging to Mirza Yusuf Khan fell upon him and put him to death. Three days afterwards his head was brought to the Emperor, and was exposed as a warning. The Emperor's good fortune thus secured an easy victory for him. It was a curious coincidence, that the day on which the Emperor crossed the river of Lahore to proceed to Kashmir, was the day on which Yadgar broke out in rebellion and caused the khutba to be read in his name. On the 23rd Zi-l hijja, the Emperor left Prince Daniyal behind in charge of the ladies of the harem, because he was not well, and he was directed to proceed with them to the fort of Rohtas. The Emperor himself went on rapidly to Kashmir, taking me with him in attendance. - [Previous: 88.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.88.4) - [Next: 88.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.88.6) - [Up: 88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.88) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.88.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tabaqat-i-akbari~en-elliot.88.5) · Pramāṇa
