In 1669, Gokula Singh with 20,000 followers rushed forward to face the Mughals, 20 miles from Tilpat. Abdunnabi attacked them. At first he appeared to be gaining ground, but in the middle of the fighting he was killed on 12 May 1669 (21st Zil-Hijja, 1079 A.H.).[11][12] Both sides suffered many casualties but the rebels could not cope with the trained Mughals and their artillery. They retreated to Tilpat, where Hasan Ali followed and besieged them with the reinforcement of 1000 Musketeers, 1000 Rocketmen, and 25 artillery pieces. Amanulla, the Faujdar of the environs of Agra were also sent to reinforce Hasan Ali.[citation needed] Fighting continued for 96 Hrs/four days in which muskets and bows were used by the contestants. On the fourth day, the Mughal forces charged the jats from all sides and having made a breach in the walls entered Tilpat.[13] Emperor Aurangzeb himself marched on 28 November 1669 from Delhi to curb the Jat threat. The Mughals under Hasan Alikhan attacked Gokula Singh.
