November 30th, 1655
The city of Indore, Mughal Empire
Early in the morning, 6:00 AM
General Islam Zaheer, who was in an excited and happy mood just a few moments ago, had lost all the smile on his face as he felt that something had gone wrong because the reinforcement, which was due to arrive an hour ago, had yet to reach the city.
Initially, Islam had thought that the reinforcements were running late because of the need to travel through a jungle, but as time passed, he sensed that things were not so simple.
He had already ordered his lieutenant to restart the artillery and hit back at the enemy troops currently at the northern wall. But sadly, due to his overconfidence in the arrival of reinforcements and his greed in fully eliminating all the enemy soldiers, he was responsible for the loss of 80 cannons of 15-kilogram calibre, which were still the mainstay of the empire's artillery, leading to an unequal competition as the enemy's artillery proved more effective.
