Shivaji Maharaj planned the campaign. Those who already lived in

that area drew pictures of the Bhima river bed, fort, entrance gates,

bastions, forts, armory, etc.

In the rear of the fort, the main force was warned by the company commander to enter through the river bed. 3 companies i.e. 5 to 6 Hundred soldiers will raid the stables of the newly purchased horses and seize the Arabian horses.
