Two years later the Bijápur generals at Panhála made an attempt to recover the Konkan and were defeated by Shiváji, who further revenged himself by sending his horse to plunder the Bijápur territory. He afterwards entered into an offensive alliance with the Mughals against Ali Adil Sháh, and joined the army of Jaisingh, Aurangzíb's general, in an invasion of the Bijápur dominions. Shiváji after a time left Jaisingh to pay a visit to Delhi, while the Mughals, who advanced to Bijápur, were so harassed by the Dakhan horse and suffered so much from sickness and from want of water and supplies that they had to raise the siege. Not long after Ali Adil Sháh concluded a treaty with Aurangzíb to the advantage of the latter; and the pretensions and attacks of Shiváji were bought off by agreeing to pay him three lákhs of rupees annually. At the end of A.D. 1672 the Bijápur king died, leaving a son, Sultán Sikandar, then only in his fifth year. On his death-bed Ali Ádil Sháh appointed as regent Kháwas Khán, son of the traitorous prime minister whose assassination has been noted above, and suggested that the leading nobles should be put in charge of the several districts, the Southern Marátha Country being assigned to Abdul Karim the ancestor of the Sávanur nawábs. The regent, however, though he assented to these arrangements, refrained from giving them effect for fear of his subordinates making their own terms with the Mughals when at a distance from the capital. - [Previous: c11.74](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.74) - [Next: c11.76](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.76) - [Up: c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.75](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c11.75) · Pramāṇa
