He also sent Teimoor Khan Shumsy, Mullik Taj-ood-Deen, and Jumal-ood-Deen Kandahary, and other generals to his assistance. Aluptugeen, joined by this force, crossed the Sirjoo, now called the Gagra, and proceeded towards Bengal, whence Toghrul Khan advanced to oppose him. Toghrul Khan employed his money so well among the troops of Aluptugeen, that he gained over many of the Toorky chiefs, and attacking the royalists, gave them a total overthrow. The King, hearing this news, bit his own flesh with vexation. He ordered Aluptugeen to be hanged at the gate of Oude, and despatched Mullik Tirmuny Toork with another army against the rebel. Nor was the fate of Mullik Tirmuny more fortunate than that of his predecessor: he was also defeated, and lost all his baggage and the public treasure. - [Previous: 33.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.33.3.3) - [Next: 33.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.33.3.5) - [Up: 33.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.33.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.33.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.33.3.4) · Pramāṇa
