nimnasthalayodhibhyo nimnayodhibhyo bhūmilābhaḥ śreyān //
Which is easier, seizing land from those who fight on plains, or from those who fight from low grounds?
Seizing the land from the latter is easier, inasmuch as they have to fight in time and space of adverse nature whereas the former can fight anywhere and at any time.
