v1.c9.s3.3
It was the 16th of April 1748. Alivardi advanced to the village of Rānisarāi,* eight miles west of Bārh, and marshalled his ranks on the plain. His big artillery (*top-i-jinsi*) was posted in front, the lighter pieces (*top-i-dasti*) behind these, and then came the horse and foot of the vanguard in support. As usual, the Nawāb took his post in the centre.
