c12.188

Early in November a number of warships arrived with reinforcements for the Muhammadans, who renewed the conflict, but still without success. They were driven from Agiathuthi, and suffered a series of defeats as they gradually fell back on the Monās river. Here they made a stand, but fortune was again adverse. They were completely surrounded; a great number were slain, and most of the remainder were made prisoners. The captured officers were sent to Garhgāon, but the common soldiers were ruthlessly slaughtered.
