Fall of the Mughal Empire v3.c40.s9.4

v3.c40.s9.4

From Rāmgarh four miles further to the north-west the path strikes the Morel river at a very easy ford free from ravines and *nālās*, opposite the village and fort of Bidakhā. From Bidakhā the path is skirted by two *nālās* for a mile and thereafter the country stretching north-westwards is an almost unbroken plain, dotted with human habitations for six miles till Tungā village is reached. This Tungā was now the base of the main Rajput army that had come out to seek an encounter with the Southern invaders, —their Rajahs being encamped two miles behind at Madhogarh.
