fourfold

 12. Then S’umbha said :-- Let all Kâmbojas go to the battle with all their forces; let other powerful heroes, especially the Kâlakeyâs, too, who are very strong heroes, go up for the battle. (Note: Kâmboja, name of a people and their country. They inhabited the Hindoo Koosh mountain which separates the Giljit valley from Balkh and probably extended up to little Tibet and Lâdak. The Kâlakeyâs may be the Afridis.)

 

13-33. Vyâsa said :-- O King! Thus ordered, all the fourfold army of S’umbha, viz., 

  1. cavalry, 
  2. infantry, 
  3. elephants and 
  4. chariots 
went out, intoxicated for war, to the battle ground where the Devî existed.
