Treachery of Mangalore [5] (End)
Mangalore, Vijayanagara Empire.
The death of Anand Jadhav sent waves of panic over the battlefield. One of their most senior commanders and leaders of the army was killed in an instant. The other commanders couldn't control the panicked army.
Adding to the chaos was the relentless, aggressive onslaught by the army in the backline. Killing hundreds of support troops and cavalry. War elephants fell one by one to a shower of arrows by the skilled archers targeting the mahouts.
Chaos ensued as Viswa took charge of Patwardhan's army, taking out everyone who stood before him. Everyone looked at Viswa as if he were a madman. He stood up on his horse and lunged at the enemy commander, impaling the gut of the enemy with his lance and knocking him to the ground.
He continued his command by taking control of the enemy's horse. The enemy and allies were aghast by his reckless actions. Even Raj Patwardhan looked pale after he saw the display of athleticism.
