At this time, the King ordered a city to be founded on the banks of the Jumna, and called it Moobarikabad, and made an excursion towards Surhind, in order to take the diversion of the chase. On the way, he received advice that Surhind was taken, and the head of the rebel Folad was presented to him, after which the King returned to the new city. Here he gained intelligence that war had broken out between Ibrahim Shah Shurky and Sooltan Hooshung of Malwa, whose armies were then near Kalpy. This information promised to afford the King an opportunity of expelling Ibrahim Shah Shurky from his dominions; he accordingly gave orders to collect his army, and caused his tents to be pitched outside the city of Dehly. A few days elapsed in the necessary organisation of his forces, during which time the King continued to visit the new works: he was, however, little apprehensible of the event which soon after took place, never having given offence to his nobility, except in changing or removing them from their governments when they misbehaved. - [Previous: 47.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.47.3.3) - [Next: 47.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.47.3.5) - [Up: 47.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.47.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.47.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.47.3.4) · Pramāṇa
