He was joined by many malecontents, and marched towards Kashmeer. Futteh Khan expected to have been supported by Jehangeer Makry; but after the success of his party, that officer joined the King, and accompanied him with an army to oppose the invader. Futteh Khan, meanwhile, proceeded by the route of Heerpoor as far as the town of Oodown, and encamped, with a marsh covering his front; in which position he was attacked by a body of Kashmeer troops, which were repulsed and put to flight; but the main body of the King’s troops behaved with so much intrepidity, particularly the King’s personal guard, with Jehangeer Makry at their head, that Futteh Khan was in the end defeated, with the loss of fifty men, and was nearly taken prisoner. Meanwhile a report prevailed through the camp that the King had fallen into the enemy’s hands; which induced Jehangeer Makry to give up farther pursuit, and to return to camp, where he found all safe. Futteh Khan’s army being dispersed, the King returned to the capital; deputing Mullik Yar Bhut to lay waste the country of the Raja of Rajoory, who had afforded Futteh Khan an asylum in his dominions. Futteh Khan now disappeared for some time; but at length collecting a force in the district of Purmgola, he marched towards Serinuggur. - [Previous: 336.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.336.1.4) - [Next: 336.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.336.1.6) - [Up: 336.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.336.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.336.1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.336.1.5) · Pramāṇa
