Fall of the Mughal Empire v3.c40.s10.3

v3.c40.s10.3

The Jaipurians began their advance to the contest about the same time that they saw the Maratha army moving towards them across the Morel. They, too, threw up earth works before their line of guns. On their side the brunt of the battle fell on the Rathor cavalry from Jodhpur (under Bhim Singh Bakhshi) who had vowed in the Rajah's presence not to return alive without victory, and the Mughalia deserters under Muhammad Beg Hamadani, these two generals respectively leading the right and left wings of their army. Their centre was evidently formed by the Kachhwas, who idly kept themselves back, exactly like Mahadji's centre composed of the Hindustanis.
