The Book of Akbar 9: Sultan Bahadur recovers Gujarat.

9

[Text, vol. i. p. 173.] Nearly three months had passed after the Emperor’s departure, when the enemy drew together and commenced operations. Khan Jahan Shirazi and Rumi Khan, whose name was Safar, and who was the builder of the fort of Surat, operated in concert. They took possession of Nausari, which was held by ’Abdu-lla Khan, an officer of Husain Khan, and he retired to Broach. About the same time they took Surat. Khan Jahan then marched against Broach, and Rumi Khan embarked his guns and muskets (tufang) in war ghrabs, and proceeded thither by water. Kasim Husain (the governor), unable to make any resistance, went to Champanir, and from thence he proceeded to Ahmadabad, seeking help from Mirza ’Askari, and Hindu Beg. Saiyid Ishak, who had received from Sultan Bahadur the title of Shitab Khan, took possession of Kambay. Yadgar Nasir Mirza was summoned from Pattan to Ahmadabad by Mirza ’Askari. Darya Khan and Muhafiz Khan, who were proceeding from Raisin to Sultan Bahadur at Diu, finding Pattan deserted, took possession of it.
