On reaching Rajoory he was joined by several persons of that place, as well as by Dowlut Chuk (the blind), Futteh Chuk, and other Chuks, as also by Gowhur Makry, and in the year 965 Shah Abool Maly invaded Kashmeer. On approaching Baramoola, Heidur Chuk and Futteh Chuk, whose duty it was to guard the passes, went to Madooky, while Shah Abool Maly preserved such strict discipline among his troops, that no soldier dared molest the inhabitants on any pretence. On reaching Baramoola, which is not far from Madooky, the invaders occupied a height. Ghazy Khan was encamped at a place called Gahwar, and detached his brother Hoossein Khan to a short distance in advance. This movement gave an opportunity to the confederate Chuks who had joined Shah Abool Maly to attack Hoossein Khan, and oblige him to fall back. Ghazy Khan allowed the Chuks to penetrate into his lines before he became the assailant, when his troops attacked them vigorously, and nearly annihilated the whole force of the enemy. This event compelled Shah Abool Maly to retreat out of the country without risking another engagement. - [Previous: 343.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.343.3) - [Next: 343.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.343.5) - [Up: 343](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.343) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.343.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.343.4) · Pramāṇa
