Sheer Khan, still continuing the pursuit, crossed the river Beea near Sooltanpoor, and compelled Hoomayoon, in the month of Rujub to pass down the river of Lahore, and to retreat towards Tutta and Bhukkur on the Indus. Kamran Mirza at length became sensible of his ungenerous conduct towards his brother, and was compelled to fly towards Kabool. Hoomayoon having crossed the Indus on his way to Bhukkur, halted at Lory, and sent an ambassador with a horse and dress to Mirza Shah Hoossein Arghoon, governor of Tutta, to request his aid in recovering Guzerat; but Mirza Shah Hoossein detained Hoomayoon by various artifices and excuses for five or six months, till his small army, distressed for want of pay, daily diminished in numbers. Hindal Mirza left Hoomayoon at this time, and went to Kandahar, having been invited thither by Kurrachar Khan, the governor of the province; Yadgar Nasir Mirza proposed also to quit the King, though the latter spared no pains to bind him firm to his interest by giving him the government of Bhukkur; but he was no sooner in possession, than he declared his independence. - [Previous: 57.3.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.57.3.8) - [Next: 57.4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.57.4.1) - [Up: 57.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.57.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.57.3.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.57.3.9) · Pramāṇa
