Few moments before , in Mughals side
As night fell over the battlefield, the tension was palpable. Before the western walls that guarded the pass, 2,700 Mughal soldiers stood in disciplined formation, their armor glinting faintly in the moonlight.
The forces were arranged in a square formation, consisting of three groups of 300 soldiers each, collectively forming triangular units with a total strength of 900. The frontmost group of 300, acting as the spearhead, extended slightly ahead of the two square formation units, creating a formation that resembled a massive triangle when viewed from above.
Each group was led by a faujdar, a seasoned commander. Tausif controlled the right flank, Farhan commanded the central group, and Amin led the left flank, summing up the Mughal defenses. Together, they formed the first line of defense, positioned just in front of the wall, ready to hold their ground against the approaching Balochi forces.
