This great undertaking was completed in 1547 and the Koches then erected a fort at Nārāyanpur. Suklenmung struck in behind them and entrenched himself on the bank of the Pichala river. He thus cut off their supplies and forced them to assume the offensive. The result was a disastrous defeat for the Koches. Many were slain in the assault and a large number of fugitives were subsequently surrounded and killed.
