Chương 74: Battle of Mahishapura [2]

Govinda's army was faltering under the relentless assault of Keshav's army. Initially, Govinda held off the barrage of arrows with his close-knit formations of infantry, fending off cavalry charges.

As the battle raged on, Govinda employed a swift maneuver. As he saw their war elephants approaching, he decided to use his war elephants to charge at the other side. 

He managed to breakthrough for a few minutes and do considerable damage, but it was quelled easily by Keshav with a change in formations, targeting the mahouts and taking down the war elephants by switching his own war elephants to the other side.

Govinda later made another breakthrough with a cavalry charge, which was also quickly suppressed by Keshav. Meanwhile, Keshav's precise tactical cavalry charges onto his infantry were chipping off the numbers, coupled with the barrage of arrows, doing a lot of the damage and forcing him to back off under pressure.
