A good few sultans was murdered

In the year 970 [1562-63] the victor ordered the Andalusians to be brought together... willynilly. 14,000 were counted and listed in a register. He sent them on their way towards Marrakesh. He fixed them up in the west of the city where there was an olive grove... some crops, some farms... he gave them weapons. They chose Al Daghali for their leader... but he imposed military service on them and forced them to do it. He further nominated a leader whom they refused. So that they dearly wished woe unto him, so as to be rid of him.
