I–II 376.3.4 - **Language:** English ### [376.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3.4) Two or three months after the marriage Ghazi Khan was born. As Qara Bahadir was not skilful nor laborious he proceeded on his service after long delay, and arrived at Rajauri in the height of the hot season. Nasrat Khan, Fatah Cak, nephew of Daulat Cak, Lohar, Ankari, Naji Rina, the brother of Idi Rina, Yusuf Cak, son of Ramaki Cak, and Khwaja Haji came and joined him. As they saw that the army was not well constituted, Nasrat Khan, Fatah Cak, Lohar and Ankari fled to Kashmir. The army remained for three months in Lali Khokar, near Bimbhar, waiting for the coming of the auxiliaries. As the leaders of the force were old servants, they took the longer time in arriving. It is not by such slowness and heaviness that the entrance into Kashmir is to be effected, for the roads of that country are of such a nature that if the ruler get news a few days before of the approach of strangers and seize the passes, it would be difficult, or rather impossible, for an army adorned with thousands of Rustams to get possession of the country. Ghazi Khan, who heard of the coming of the army, and some months had passed meanwhile, so strongly fortified the roads and passes that there could be no idea of getting through them. He also sent his infantry down from the hills. M. Qara Bahadir, after fighting for some days near Rajauri, was defeated and turned back. It was not solely the strength of the Kashmiris that effected this. - [Previous: 376.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3.3) - [Next: 376.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3.5) - [Up: 376.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.376.3.4) · Pramāṇa
