                                 GURU GOBIND SINGH JI



At last the Mughal army decided to break through the gate of the fort. But as they tried to rush forth in that direction the Guru despatched a Jatha of five Sikhs to face them. They fought very bravely and killed  large number of Mughal soldiers. Then the Guru sent an other batch and they also faced the attackers valiantly. Then Baba Ajit Singh requested he Guru for permission to go out and to face the enemy. The Guru permitted him to go out side. Five Sikhs accompanied him. They all fought very bravely. They sacrificed their lives for the true cause. In the next batch Baba Jujhar Singh fought as bravely as his brother had done. He also died fighting to the last. It was night by now. The Mughal army lay down to take rest. Then the Guru had ten Sikhs left with him. They took counsel together and requested Guru to leave the fort. The Guru obeyed their command and left the fort with three other Sikhs- Bhai Daya Singh, Bhai Dharam Singh, and Bhai Maan Singh.
At Machiwara the Guru and his three Sikhs stayed in the house of Bhai Gulaba. He was very anxious to serve them but was also afraid of the Muslim rulers. One day and one night Gulaba kept them on the upper storey of his house. There also lived two Rohilla Pathansd- Ghani Khan and Nabi Khan. They were horse traders and they had sold many horses to the Guru. When they heard about the Guru, they were moved to tears and they decided to help the Guru. They dyed Khaddar blue and prepared robes and dresses as worn by a sect of Muslim saints. Guru and his three Sikhs dressed themselves i these clothes and let their hair fall down their shoulders.
Disguising themselves in thsat way, the Guru sat on a litter and it was lifted by Ghani Khan, Nabi Khan, Maan Singh and Dharam Singh. Bhai Daya Singh waved a chaur over him. In that way they were escorting the 'Uch da Peer'. On the way nobody questioned them and they travelled on safely. Reaching Raikot the Guru stayed with Raae Kalha who was a rich and influential Muslim Jat of Raae Kot. He served the Guru with loving hospitality.
From Raae Kalha, the Guru went to Dina Kangar. At Dina Kangar, the Guru enrolled many brave soldiers and also collected ammunition and weapons of war. Here he came to know that Nawab of Sirhind was pursuing him. He therefore decided to go into thick jungles where defence would be easier.

And he stood up and patting him said,''Bhai Ghanhiya, you are great, you have achieved your target, you have crossed the worldly ocean and now have been exempted from further transmigration. In those days, red cross societies did not exist, so Bhai Ghanhiya Ji is clamied to be the pioneer of red cross.

When the generals of the royal army found their soldiers being kiiled in large numbers, they lost the hope of defeating the Sikhs in the open fields. Therefore they made up their minds to besiege and blockade the fort and to cut off supplies. But when the long siege did not bear any fruit the royal army and hill-chiefs were also worried. Then they requested the Guru to evacuate Anandpur Sahib. They also swore on the cow and the Quran.
But the Guru knew the treacherous plans of the hill-men and the Turks. He told the envoys of hill-men and Turks that he would evacuate the fort if the armies first allow the removal of his promises made. Then the Guru asked his men to fill the sacks with old shoes, torn clothes and other rubbish material. The sacks which were covered with beautiful brocade, were loaded on the backs of bullocks which were forced out of the fort at mid-night. Flambeau with long handles were tied to the horns of the bullocks, so that those might be seen from a long distance. When the animals reached near the army, they at once fell upon them to loot(so called) precious property.
But when they touched the foul smelling rubbish, they felt ashamed.
After few days, the Guru vacated the fort and reached Chamkaur. At chamkaur the Guru entrenched the mud-built house. His army consisted of only forty trusted Sikhs, his weapons of offence and defence were those which he and his Sikhs had arranged to bring with them. The Guru asked his eight Sikhs to guard each wall, two were posted to the gate and two were keep at watch. The Guru himself, with his few Sikhs and two sons held the top storey.
At mid night the Mughal army rushed up and surrounded the village. Next morning a part of army advanced to capture the small fort. But when they approached near the fort a valley of bullet and arrows greeted them Then next party advanced, they also met the same fate.
