Dutch occupied Indian territory, outskirts of shimoga city, afternoon on 18th March 1557
The Dutch soldiers marched along the southern road leading to their newly established stronghold. The path was clear but narrow, flanked by thick forest on both sides. The breeze of wind was gentle amid the tall trees, which provided shadow and a peaceful journey, yet only for a time.
The Marathas were stationed on the western side of the road, hidden through the cover of thick forest and rocks as they lay in wait for their prey to arrive.
Soon, dust followed on the distant road, and the crunching sound of boots heightened their senses. They could see the banner of the Dutch flag being held by the frontline musketeers and a few horses at the side.
