Shujā‘-ud-Daula met the invaders of his province at Sāndī, near Bilgrām, and after two unimportant affairs of outposts was reinforced by Sa‘d-ullah Khān of Rohilkhand, who had now become his friend. The arrival of this new force and Sa‘d-ullah Khān’s advocacy of Shujā‘-ud-Daula’s cause put an end to hostilities and the aggressors retired after receiving 500,000 rupees in cash from Shujā‘-ud-Daula and vague promises of more. Ghāzī-ud-dīn retired to Farrukhābād, where he halted to await the departure of Ahmad Abdālī.
