Kapitel 226: Battle of Kashmir Part - 9

The interrogation with Tsewang turned out to be turning point of battle. Rudra not only learned about the secret tunnel route but also the layout of troop positions, the number of soldiers involved, and, most importantly, the information about the arrival of reinforcements.

As per the information received, the number of forces stationed in the fort is two thousand Ladakhi forces, one thousand Kashmiri conscripts, most of whom were disbanded veterans, and two thousand mujahideens from the Mughals. It will take three more days for the reinforcements to arrive.

If not for Tsewang's deep desire for revenge, Rudra would have faced a far tougher challenge cracking him open, especially given his willingness to die.

Still, even with this stroke of luck, time was against Rudra, and he had to act swiftly.
