They burst through both lines of the enemy's infantry, wheeled round and charged the cavalry, and drove them from the field; and then turning again, fell on the rear of the second line, which was now hotly engaged with the British infantry who, following the Dragoons at the double, had rushed forward on the guns, captured them, and driven the first line back on the second.
The rest of the British infantry had now come up; but Perron's regular infantry, who were all drawn from hill districts, and had been victorious in many a fight, resisted to the last.

Two thousand were surrounded and made prisoners, but the rest all fought until they fell.
The victory of Laswaree cost the British eight hundred and twenty-four men, killed and wounded; but it completed the overthrow of the whole of the regiments trained by Perron and de Boigne, and laid the tract of country watered by the Jumna under the power of the British.
Harry, who had accompanied the general, having carried the order to the Dragoons to charge, rode with them and came unhurt out of the desperate fight.
A few days later the army quitted Laswaree and moved towards Agra, resting for a fortnight at Besawur.

The great successes gained by both the British armies had had their effect, and a number of rajahs came in to make a treaty of alliance.

General Lake's force, after a short rest, then marched southward, and took up a position at Biana.
While these events had been going on, a detachment from the army had entered Bundelcund.

This had been under the control of the Peishwa but, by an agreement made with him in August, it was ceded to the Company; he receiving, in exchange, grants in the southern Mahratta country, and near Surat.
