"The coming over of the Feringis gave composure to the hearts of the people of Bengal......The viceroy regarded this event as the commencement of victory." The Chief Captain informed him that the Arrakanese king, secure in the strength of the Feringis, had hitherto neglected the defence and provisioning of Chatgaon and that the place could be easily taken if the Mughals attacked it immediately without giving him time to wake up and send reinforcements from his capital.
