Fall of the Mughal Empire v4.c56.s24.1

v4.c56.s24.1

The repulse of the British cavalry gave Sarwar Khan a respite for three hours (10 A.M. to 1 A.M.) which he put to the best use. The report of the morning’s fight had recalled his other nine battalions and cavalry force from the way to Mewat, and he set up a formidable row of double defences round Mālpur, where all the baggage stores and munitions of this army were deposited.
