บท 188: Battle of Siddhpur [2]

The cannons roared to life as they unleashed another barrage on the midline of the Marathas. The battlefield shook from the impact of the iron shells. Smoke and smell of gunpowder began to fill the side of the Marathas. 

The soldiers were panicking as the onslaught of the cannons continued. 

Baldev shook his head, trying to calm his nerves down and focus on the situation at hand. He didn't expect the Mughals to have cannons in their arsenal. This was very bad for the Marathas, who were already outnumbered by the Mughal army. 

If they added cannons to the mix, it was going to make a huge dent in their numbers. 

The momentum shifted towards the Mughals. 

"Fall back!! Get out of the range of the cannons!" He ordered. 

The cannons were heavy and hard to move. They could buy some time by falling back.

Meanwhile, Askar laughed at the antics of the Marathas.
