Gazi split his forces and remained in Wallachia to deal with some rebels and sent Fetih with 20000 men to Hungary where he met Sultan Murad III for the first time.
[1]), after the place was taken, in October 1596 a large Habsburg army appeared and almost reached the Sultan's tent when Fetih and Cığalazade Yusuf Sinan Pasha attacked them in the rear.
As a reward Chigalazade was made grand vizier and Fetih was appointed khan of Crimea in place of Gazi.
Gazi had suggested putting his relatives on the thrones of Moldavia or Wallachia, which seemed like a dangerous extension of Crimean power.
According to Gaivoronsky he began intriguing with all the neighboring powers - Poles, Austrians, Moldavians, Wallachians and Zaporozhians.
According to Türk he sent a letter of protest to the Sultan [2] After 45 days as grand vizier, Chigalazade was replaced by Damat Ibrahim Pasha who recommended that Gazi be restored.
He solved the problem by sending Handan Agha to Crimea with two letters of appointment – one for Fetih and one for Gazi.
The letters were presented to the Kadi at Kaffa and he chose Fetih's on the ground that it had the sultan's signature.
The Mufti preferred Gazi's letter because it had the sultans ‘turga’ – a piece of calligraphy that amounted to a seal.
