The Adventures of King Salu in the Irawadi

Kian Sittha came out of exile to help the childish king lead his armies against the rebellion in the south. But King Salu would prove to have no better judgement on the battlefield than off it, and he would be fooled one day by a devious ploy. He was soon found hiding in the Banyan tree, and was taken into captivity by the rebel Yaman Khan. According to another slightly fantastical episode in the chronicles, Salu did actually have one chance to escape, when the hero Kian Sittha personally snuck into the enemy camp to rescue him. The whole army was despoiled and fled. There was none to stop them.
