The enveloping movement of Samudra Gupta against the Vākāṭaka Empire was practically a continuation of his First Āryāvarta War. The three big battles form really one continuous campaign. The campaign, therefore, must have been carried through quickly. Under a generalship which was so perfect that it never met with a reverse or check, the campaigns would have been finished easily in three fighting seasons—October \[Vijayādaśamī\] to April each year. Following the chronology adopted above we may date the First Āryāvarta Battle about 344-345 A.D., the Second Āryāvarta War in or about 348 A.D., and the probable Third War c. 349 or 350 A.D. - [Previous: c16.s3.43](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c16.s3.43) - [Next: c16.s4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c16.s4.1) - [Up: c16.s3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c16.s3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c16.s3.44](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c16.s3.44) · Pramāṇa
