Other Yūsufzāi bands plundered the western Peshāwar and Attock districts. Then they came over to the south side of the Indus at Hārūn, in order to prevent any Mughul force from crossing into their country at this ferry. But Kāmil Khān, the commandant of Attock, defeated and expelled them with heavy slaughter (11 April). Next month Shamsher Khān, with a larger army, crossed the Indus, entered the Yūsufzāi country, and leaving an entrenched camp at Und ravaged the cornfields in the level country of Mandrāwar. Then advancing farther he captured many of their villages, burning down the houses, looting the property and destroying all vestiges of cultivation, up to the Panjshīr river. - [Previous: v4.c19.56](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.56) - [Next: v4.c19.58](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.58) - [Up: v4.c19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.57](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.burn-1937.v4.c19.57) · Pramāṇa
