Marching forwards, the army passed over the summit of Sabalgarh, and arrived on the confines of Khandesh. Miran Sadr-i Jahan had previously advised that the force should be sent to Burhanpur, lest its advance upon Asir should drive Bahadur Khan to desperation. But when this opinion was represented to the Emperor, he the same day gave orders that no attention was to be paid to it; that the army was not to go to Burhanpur, but was to march direct to Asir, and invest the place. Accordingly, it advanced to within two or three kos of Asir.
