For greater security he made a great wall of earth, beginning at the foot of the hill and ending on the bank of the Ganges, a distance, more or less, of half a league. It was made at a distance of twelve leagues from the city of Munger, and its object was to bar the passage to Mir Jumlah. Recognising the great difficulty of making an attack on Shah Shuja', Mir Jumlah began a correspondence with some rajahs dwelling in the wilds referred to, men who also at one time or another had been injured by Shah Shuja'. Valuable presents were forwarded, and they permitted the passage of the army. Thus Mir Jumlah and Sultan Muhammad marched on with the best of their troops, directing their course towards Raiamahal (Rajmahal), the principal residence of Shah Shuja', with the sole object of cutting off his retreat. - [Previous: 65.36.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.36.4) - [Next: 65.36.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.36.6) - [Up: 65.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.36) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.36.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.36.5) · Pramāṇa
