महाराणा सांगा: द हिन्दूपत (हरविलास सारदा - मेवाड़ साम्राज्य एवं खानवा महायुद्ध इतिहास)

CHAPTER IX. FAILURE OF SULTAN MUZAFFAR SHAH'S INVASION OF MEWAR. THE Sultan of Gujarāt left Muhammada- bad and returned to his capital after the Maharana had returned to Mewar. He was grieved to see his country devastated, and began to think of avenging its ruin. He set about preparing a large army, doubled the pay of the soldiers, and gave them a year's salary in advance. At last in Muharrum H. 927 (Pos Sud S. 1577), December A.D. 1520, the Sultan sent Malik Ayaz with an army of 100,000 cavalry, 100 elephants and a large park of artillery¹ against Mewar. Another army, consisting of 20,000 horse and 20 elephants was sent under Qiwam-ul- mulk to co-operate with Malik Ayaz. Both these armies marched to Morassa. While ¹ Bayley's Gujarāt, p. 271. 84
