Fall of Baloch Part-3

The Mughal army, though brutally barbaric, excelled in tactical brilliance when it came to group coordination and skillful execution on the battlefield, regardless of terrain challenges.

As most of the balochi townsfolk had escaped into the nearby hill to survive their assault, the two-thousand-strong band of troops was categorically split into 10-man groups, with each contingent led by a squad leader.

Since the hill was located on the southern side of the northwestern side of the town, along the lines of the river, Faujdar Farhan decided to keep 200 soldiers at the river bay on the northern end in case they tried to flee through a river crossing and started their pursuit of the fleeing townsfolk from the eastern direction.
