Ramachandra led an expedition against Hoysala to avenge the defeat they inflicted on his Uncle Mahadev he engaged in a series of conflicts against Hoysala and gained a decisive victory over them. Ramachandra got the title of A powerful arm in seizing the wealth of Hoysala.[2][4][3]
Prelude[edit]
During the reign of Ramachandra's uncle Mahadeva, the Yadavas had suffered a defeat against their southern neighbours, the Hoysalas. To avenge this defeat, Ramachandra decided to send a expedition against the Hoysalas. He spent several years preparing for this expedition. The expedition was led by experienced generals such as Saluva Tikkama, Joyideva, Irungola Chola and Harapala (a son-in-law of Ramachandra).Their force was supported by another force led by the general Kannaradeva and the ministers Chaundarasa and Vanadaevarasa[2][4][3]
Expedition and outcome[edit]
In 1275, the Yadava force, led by Tikkama, invaded Hoysala territory, defeating a Hoysala force led by Anka and Maideva in 1276. Another Yadava force, led by Kannaradeva, attacked Doravadi, winning but losing their minister Vanadevarasa to Hoysala chief Singeya Nayaka.[2][4]
Tikkama besieged Dvarasamudra (Capital of Hoysala) Tikkama killed many officers of Hoysala along with Gullaya and Nanjeya, but on April 25, 1276, a decisive attack led by Ankeya Nayaka forced the Yadavas to retreat. [4]
While Yadava inscription mentions Tikkama was able to capture and plunder the capital got tribute elephants and horses and gained loots.[2][3]
Skirmishes continued, but major conflict was avoided as the Hoysala king was engaged in family conflicts and campaigns against rivals.[3]
