When the charge of that district was conferred by His Majesty on Burhanu-l Mulk, he went there with a formidable army. Bhagwant, with a body of three thousand horse, sallied from the fort of Ghazipur, and suddenly appeared before the army of the Nawab on its arrival, upon which occasion many of his followers were killed by the Nawab's artillery. Bhagwant, avoiding the fire of the guns, fell upon the advanced division of the army, which was headed by Abu Turab Khan. This officer was slain, and Bhagwant then attacked the Nawab's body-guard. Mir Khudayar Khan, with 6000 horse, advanced to oppose him, and was defeated after a severe action. The Nawab himself thought it necessary to move to his support, and a close conflict ensued. Shaikh 'Abdu-llah of Ghazipur, Shaikh Ruhu-l Amin Khan of Bilgram, Durjan Singh chaudhari of Kora, Dilawar Khan, 'Azmat Khan and other Afghans, attacked and surrounded Bhagwant, who affected to despise his enemy, but was slain by the hands of Durjan Singh chaudhari. Nawab Burhanu-l Mulk obtained the victory, and the head of Bhagwant was sent to Dehli. - [Previous: 2.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-saadat-i-jawid~en-elliot.2.1) - [Next: 2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-saadat-i-jawid~en-elliot.2.3) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-saadat-i-jawid~en-elliot.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-saadat-i-jawid~en-elliot.2.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.general.tarikh-i-saadat-i-jawid~en-elliot.2.2) · Pramāṇa
