1 янв 1781 г. - Haider Ali strikes English and English strike back 1781

Описание:

Haidar Ali forged an anti-English alliance with the Marathas and
the Nizam. He followed it up by an attack in the Carnatic,
capturing Arcot, and defeating the English army under
Colonel Baillie in 1781.
In the meantime, the English (under
Sir Eyre Coote) detached both the Marathas and the Nizam
from Haidar’s side, but the undeterred Haidar faced the
English boldly only to suffer a defeat at Porto Novo in
November 1781. However, he regrouped his forces and
defeated the English and captured their commander,
Braithwaite.
