In two months, however, he recruited his troops, and again marched to Wurungole. On his way thither, he besieged and took the town of Bedur, belonging to the Raja of Wurungole, on the frontiers of Tulingana, and some other places, wherein he left garrisons. He then advanced to the capital, and renewing the siege of Wurungole, reduced it to surrender. Some thousands of Hindoos were put to death, and Luddur Dew, with his family, were taken prisoners. Aluf Khan sent them, together with their treasures, elephants, and private property, to Dehly, under charge of Kuddur Khan, and Khwaja Hajy, the latter of whom had been second in command under Mullik Naib Kafoor. Upon their reaching the capital, great rejoicings were made in the new citadel at Dehly, which the King had just finished, and to which he gave the name of Toghlukabad. The Prince Aluf Khan appointed officers to govern the country of Tulingana, and caused Wurungole to be called Sooltanpoor, after which he proceeded in person towards Jajnuggur. On this occasion, he took forty elephants from the Raja, and sent them to his father. Returning to Wurungole, he stayed there a few days, and marched back to Dehly. - [Previous: 39.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.6) - [Next: 39.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.8) - [Up: 39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.39.7) · Pramāṇa
