The soldiers were on high alert on the top of the walls of Fort Nadiad. They were waiting for the Qutb army to make their way to the region.
The Qutb army has to move through this region to reach the capital. Vasant Pawar stood atop the fortified walls and looked into the distance. He knew about the commander of the Qutb Sultanate and his personality.
The man was a coward but he had a duty to take Nadiad from the Marathas to show the Mughals that they had participated in the war.
This information came in handy for Vasant, as he used it to setup his defense properly at the Fort Nadiad.
Vasant was experienced in handling situations. The basic strategy the offensive army would use would be to starve the army out. This would seem like a great strategy on paper but it would be a waste of time if the defenders had enough supplies to last them months in the fort.
