Among the other commanders were some whose loyalty was more secure. Such as De Boigne and Rana Khan, the latter a devoted follower of Sindia ever since he saved the chiefs life in the escape from Panipat. Muhamad Beg was accompanied by a nephew like himself a Persian from Hamadan, and a gallant leader of heavy cavalry.. The encounter occurred at Ldlsaut, in the height of the hot season, about the end of May, 1787, and turned out ill for Sindia. After three days' fighting, in which Muhamad Beg w...as killed by a round shot, as he was idly look- ing on from an elephant's back in the rear of the line, Sindia was repulsed; on the evening of the third day, 14,000 of his infantry marched out of the lines and joined the Jaipur Rdja, T Digitized by Google 274 HISTORY OF INDIA, and Ismail deserted with i,ooo horse, four battah'ons of foot, and six guns. The Muhamadan account of the affair is some- what confused, but that was the upshot, though some of the best authorities* say that Muhamad Beg had gone over before he was killed ; in any case, the subsequent conduct of his nephew shows that there was treachery among the Muhama- dans of Sindia*s so-called Imperial forces, of which the Raj- put leaders were not unaware.
