arer netuś ca madhyastho durbalo 'ntardhir ucyate /
pratighāto balavato durgāṭavyapasāravān //

He who is situated between a conqueror and his enemy is called an antardhi (one between two kings); when such a king is possessed of forts, wild tribes, and other kinds of help, he proves an impediment in the way of the strong.
