SOʻZLARINI QULOQQA OLIB

soʻzlariga amal qilib

Ul tarafdin muxoliflar ham boʻlgʻon cheriklarini yigʻib, Axsi keldilar. Bu fursatta Pop qoʻrgʻonini meni deb berkittilar. Xonning bir nima hayal yurushidin muxoliflar Pop qoʻrgʻonini zoʻrlab oldilar. Xonning agarchi oʻzga axloq va atvori xoʻb edi. Ish bu yerga yetgandakim, agar yana bir koʻch yurulsa edi, koʻpragi bu erdikim, urushsiz-oʻq viloyat muyassar boʻlgʻay edi. Ushmundoq mahalda muxoliflarning firibomiz soʻzlarini quloqqa olib isloh hikoyatini oragʻa solib, Xoja Abulmakorim bila Tanbalning ogʻasi Bek Telbanikim, ul mahalda xonning eshokogʻasi edi, elchilikka yibordilar [64]. The enemy too, on their part, having brought together what army they had, came to Akhsi. At this time the fortress of Pap was held by some of my partizans in hopes of my arrival; but the enemy, gaining courage from a belief of the Khan’s retreat, carried it by storm. Though the Khan had many valuable qualities and talents, yet he had no talents as a soldier or general. At the very moment when matters were brought to such a pass, that, if we had advanced a single march, the country might have been gained without fighting a battle, he listened to the artful proposals of the enemy, and dispatched Khwajeh Abul Makaram with Tambol’s elder brother, Beg Tilbeh, who at that time was the Khan’s chamberlain, on an embassy, with proposals for an accommodation.
