Beveridge) 925.5.6 - **Language:** English ### [925.5.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.6) When the van of our left, having passed the narrow place, went in a body to the Gate, Hātī, with whom were 30 to 40 men in armour, their horses in mail, and a mass of foot-soldiers, forced his assailants to retire. Dost Beg led his reserve forward, made a strong attack, dismounted a number of Hātī's men, and beat him. All the country-round, Hātī was celebrated for his daring, but try as he did, he could effect nothing; he took to flight; he could not make a stand in those narrow places; he could not make the fort fast when he got back into it. His assailants went in just behind him and ran on through the ravine and narrows of the north-west side of the fort, but he rode light and made his flight good. Here again, Dost Beg did very well and recompense was added to renown.\[1427\] Meantime I had gone into the fort and dismounted at Tātār \_Kakar's\_ dwelling. Several men had joined in the attack for whom to stay with me had been arranged; amongst them were Amīn-i-muḥammad Tarkhān \_Argkūn\_ and Qarācha.\[1428\] For this fault they were sent to meet the camp, without \_sar-u-pā\_, into the wilds and open country with Sar-u-pā\[1429\] for their guide, the Gujūr mentioned already. (\_March 16th\_) Next day we went out by the north-west ravine and dismounted in a sown field. A few serviceable braves under Wālī the treasurer were sent out to meet the camp.\[1430\] - [Previous: 925.5.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.5) - [Next: 925.5.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.7) - [Up: 925.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.6) · Pramāṇa
