After the fall of Sipah Salar’s Cabinet they were released and
returned to their country, where they took revenge by expelling
Sipah Salar’s agents from Kujur, Kalardasht and Kalaristaq.
Amir Asad was Governor of Tunakabun and Sardar Leader of a tribe or a polity; also refers to a military rank or title given to a commander of an army or division. Iqtidar,
out of jealousy, joined the rebel Kujuris.
In February 1918, after some skirmishing with Akram-ul-Mulk
at the mouth of the Chalus river, they advanced to Khurrama-
bad, the seat of Government of Tunakabun, did a good deal of
looting, and made Sardar Leader of a tribe or a polity; also refers to a military rank or title given to a commander of an army or division. Iqtidar nominal Governor.
Meanwhile Amir Asad had taken refuge with the Jangalis,
then at the height of their power, and as a result of their inter
vention the Kujuris withdrew from Tunakabun, and a Jangall
Governor was sent with deputies in Kalaristaq and Kujur with
100 men to support them. The advent of the Jangalis into these
districts brought them into contact with the rebel chiefs of
Mazandaran, especially with Amir Mu’aiyid of Savad Kuh,
whose son Sahm-ul-Mamalik was allied with the Kujuris in
their foray into Tunakabun, and the spread of Jangali power to
Mazandaran seemed imminent. This was however, frustrated
by their defeat at Manjil bridge by Bicherakoff’s column in
June, which caused them to curtail the field of their activities
and withdraw back to Gilan.
In the autumn of 1918 Sipah Salar himself went to Tunaka
bun. Owing to the peace concluded in August between the
British and the Jangalis, the latter, having no other opponent,
were too powerful for him, his grandson Akram-ul-Mulk had
been routed by them in Siyahristaq near Rudisar, and his estates
were in a very vulnerable position between Jangalis and Kujuris.
He accordingly came to terms with the former that he would
not oppose them in Gilan on condition that they would not
interfere with him in Tunakabun, and was conciliatory to the
latter, who agreed to recognize Sipah Salar’s brother Sardar Leader of a tribe or a polity; also refers to a military rank or title given to a commander of an army or division.
Kabir, as Governor. Soon after Sipah Salar’s departure his
youngest son Sa’id-ud-Dauleh suddenly appeared in Tunakabun
from Kazvin. He overruled his notoriously incompetent uncle,
the Sardar Leader of a tribe or a polity; also refers to a military rank or title given to a commander of an army or division. Kabir, appropriated the revenues, raised 400 men and
advanced to Abbasabad against Salar Fatih and the Kujuris,
until, in April 1919, he was threatened in the rear by the approach
of the Jangalis, who had been driven out of Gilan by the Persian
Government troops, and retired to the ridge bounding the
Tunakabun plain South of Khurramabad. His retirement was
followed by the entry of the Kujiiris into Tunakabun, where they
did much looting, nominally of Sipah Salar’s property, but
actually of the whole countryside, until at the command of the
