In truth this seemed reasonable; our men were ordered to take what they knew to be theirs. Reasonable and just though the order was, (I now) understand that it was a little hasty. [Sidenote: Fol. 64b.] With a worry like Jahāngīr seated at my side, there was no sense in frightening people in this way. In conquest and government, though many things may have an outside appearance of reason and justice, yet 100,000 reflections are right and necessary as to the bearings of each one of them. From this single incautious order of ours,[458] what troubles! what rebellions arose! In the end this same ill-considered order was the cause of our second exile from Andijān. Now, through it, the Mughūls gave way to anxiety and fear, marched through Rabāṯik-aūrchīnī, that is, Aīkī-sū-ārāsī, for Aūzkīnt and sent a man to Taṃbal. In my mother's service were 1500 to 2000 Mughūls from the horde; as many more had come from Ḥiṣār with Ḥamza Sl. and Mahdī Sl. and Muḥammad _Dūghlāt Ḥiṣārī_.[459] Mischief and devastation must always be expected from the Mughūl horde. Up to now[460] they have rebelled five times against me. It must not be understood that they rebelled through not getting on with me; they have done the same thing with their own Khāns, again and again. Sl. Qulī _Chūnāq_[461] brought me the news. His late father, Khudāī-bīrdī _Būqāq_[462] I had favoured amongst the Mughūls; he was himself with the (rebel) Mughūls [Sidenote: Fol. 65.] and he did well in thus leaving the horde and his own family to bring me the news. Well as he did then however, he, as will be told,[463] did a thing so shameful later on that it would hide a hundred such good deeds as this, if he had done them. His later action was the clear product of his Mughūl nature. When this news came, the begs, gathered for counsel, represented to me, 'This is a trifling matter; what need for the pādshāh to ride out? Let Qāsim Beg go with the begs and men assembled here.' So it was settled; they took it lightly; to do so must have been an error of judgment. Qāsim Beg led his force out that same day; Taṃbal meantime must have joined the Mughūls. Our men crossed the Aīlāīsh river[464] early next morning by the Yāsī-kījīt (Broad-crossing) and at once came face to face with the rebels. Well did they chop at one another (_chāpqūlāshūrlār_)! Qāsim Beg himself came face to face with Muḥammad _Arghūn_ and did not desist from chopping at him in order to cut off his head.[465] Most of our braves exchanged [Sidenote: Fol. 65b.] good blows but in the end were beaten. Qāsim Beg, `Alī-dost T̤aghāī, Ibrāhīm _Sārū_, Wais _Lāgharī_, Sayyidī Qarā and three or four more of our begs and household got away but most of the rest fell into the hands of the rebels. Amongst them were `Alī-darwesh Beg and Mīrīm _Lāgharī_ and (Sherīm?) T̤aghāī Beg's (son) Tūqā[466] and `Alī-dost's son, Muḥammad-dost and Mīr Shāh _Qūchīn_ and Mīrīm Dīwān.
