Upon his arrival at Mahoor, Feroze found the native chiefs of that district, out of apprehension of Nursing Ray, had consented to acknowledge that Raja's authority. On the present occasion, therefore, they obtained pardon at the intercession of some of the nobility, made large offerings, and joined the army. The King halted one month and five days at Mahoor, and then proceeded towards Kehrla. Nursing Ray, who had great wealth and power, being possessed of all the hills of Gondwana, and other countries, sent rich presents to the kings of Malwa and Kandeish, entreating their assistance; but though they had on former occasions furnished him with aid, yet, as they in reality wished his destruction, they on the present occasion declined joining his cause. Notwithstanding this circumstance, Nursing Ray resolved to engage the King, and marching two coss from Kehrla, assembled his troops and waited for his approach. - [Previous: 73.2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.73.2.8) - [Next: 73.3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.73.3.2) - [Up: 73.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.73.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.73.3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-firishta~en-briggs.73.3.1) · Pramāṇa
