Aḥmad \_Taṃbal\_.\[625\] He took the road over the Kīndīrlīk-pass and from Blacksmiths'-dale (Āhangarān-julgasī) sent the Younger Khān and me on in advance. After the pass had been crossed, we all met again near Zarqān (var. Zabarqān) of Karnān. One day, near Karnān, they numbered their men\[626\] and reckoned them up to be 30,000. From ahead news began to come that Taṃbal also was collecting a force and going to Akhsī. After having consulted together, The Khāns decided to join some of their men to me, in order that I might cross the Khujand-water, and, marching by way of Aūsh and Aūzkīnt, turn Taṃbal's rear. Having so settled, they joined to me Ayūb \_Begchīk\_ with his \_tūmān\_, Jān-ḥasan Bārīn (var. Nārīn) with his Bārīns, Muḥ. \_Ḥiṣārī Dūghlāt\_, Sl. Ḥusain \_Dūghlāt\_ and Sl. Aḥmad Mīrzā \_Dūghlāt\_, not in command of the Dūghlāt \_tūmān\_,—and Qaṃbar-\`alī Beg (the Skinner). The commandant (\_darogha\_) of their force was Sārīgh-bāsh (Yellow-head) Mīrza \_Itārchī\_.\[627\] - [Previous: 908.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.908.1.6) - [Next: 908.1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.908.1.8) - [Up: 908.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.908.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.908.1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.908.1.7) · Pramāṇa
