The year 651 H. commenced on the 2nd March, 1253 A.D.\], “Mengko” assembled the Princes and Grandees at the river Onon, and determined upon sending armies to make further foreign conquests, “one into India and Kashmir, another into Korea, and a third against the Khalifah,” which was to be the most numerous, under his brother “Hyu-le-hu” \[Hulaku\]. Among the generals was “Kakan \[the Manjanik-chi?\] son of Ko-chey, son of Ko-pan-yu,” who were generals of the Chingiz Khan, a native of Ching, dependent on Wha-chew, in the district of Si-gan-Fu, capital of Shen-si, a very learned man. Hu-pi-lay \[Kubilae\] had assembled his forces the previous year \[1252 A.D. — 649-50 H.\], at Lin-tau-Fu, in Shen-si, entered Sew-chwen, and by difficult roads, through mountains and by precipices, reached the river Kin-sha or Kyang. At this period, great part of Yun-nan was ruled by Princes independent of China. Tali had a king of its own, and he was taken, with that city, in December of that year. “Hu-pi-lay” subdued several neighbouring Princes, and reached Tibbat, where several others submitted to him. After this he returned to his government, leaving Hu-lyang-hotay \[the Ko-yang Mukali?\] in command. - [Previous: 288.2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.288.2.3) - [Next: 288.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.288.2.5) - [Up: 288.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.288.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.288.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.288.2.4) · Pramāṇa
