Al-Jūbānī in the meanwhile had halted his army in the center, and his forces there had now been added some ʾashrafīya who had deserted their barracks comrade (khushdāsh) Minṭāsh and joined the other ʾashrafīya who had gone over to al-Jūbānī. However, though al-Jūbānī had treated them with generosity and favor, giving them positions in his army among his personal followers (min khawāṣṣ ʿaskari-hi), they had now conspired with some of his own mamlūks to murder him; and at the hour of battle, when al-Nāṣirī was engaged with Nuʿayr and Qarā Damurdāsh was engaged with Minṭāsh, the conspirators had attacked al-Jūbānī from behind and killed him with their swords. they had then captured amir Maʾmūr al-Qalamṭāwī, governor of Ḥamā, whom they cut in two at the waist, and had killed also amir Āqbughā al-Jawharī. The three amirs just mentioned were among the most eminent of the yalbughāwīya and of Barqūq’s amirs and comrades. In addition, several other yalbughāwīya amirs had been killed by the insurgents. This conflict had been, said the report, of the greatest severity, the multitude slain being uncountable, while the Arabs, Turkumāns, and Tribesmen had plundered the effects of both armies. The Sultan was deeply affected when this news of the death of the amirs was brought to him y post-horse messenger.
