This success marks the turn of the tide in favour of Delhi, and Buhlūl pursued the demoralised army of Jaunpur and occupied and annexed the sub-districts of Kampil, Patiālī, Shamsābād, Suket, Koīl, Mārahra, and Jalesar. Husain, when hard pressed by Buhlūl's pursuit, turned and faced him, but was defeated, and when peace was made was obliged to acquiesce in Buhlūl's retention of the considerable tract which he had recovered, and to withdraw the frontier of his kingdom to Chhibrāmau, sixteen miles south of the modern town of Farrukhābād.
