1527. The King of Guzerat sends a fleet of eighty vessels to attack the Portuguese at Choul, who are assisted by the King of Ahmudnuggur in opposing the enemy. The Guzerat fleet is totally destroyed, losing seventy-three vessels out of the whole number, either burned, sunk, or driven ashore. The Portuguese proceed with the King of Ahmudnuggur's troops and take a fort belonging to Guzerat, which is given over to the Nizam Shahy general. Nagotna is taken, and made over to the Nizam Shahies. The Portuguese proceed northward, and levy contributions on Tanna and Bassein, compelling both places to promise to pay annual tribute to the crown of Portugal.
