sn3.15:1.1 Then King Ajātasattu of Magadha, son of the princess of Videha, mobilized an army of four divisions and marched to Kāsi to attack King Pasenadi of Kosala.
sn3.15:1.2 When King Pasenadi heard of this,
sn3.15:1.4 he mobilized an army of four divisions and marched to Kāsi to defend it against Ajātasattu.
sn3.15:1.5 Then the two kings met in battle.
sn3.15:1.6 And in that battle Pasenadi defeated Ajātasattu and captured him alive.
sn3.15:1.7 Then King Pasenadi thought,
sn3.15:1.8 “Even though I’ve never betrayed this King Ajātasattu, he betrayed me. Still, he is my nephew.
sn3.15:1.9 Now that I’ve vanquished all of Ajātasattu’s elephant troops, cavalry, chariots, and infantry, why don’t I let him loose with just his life?”
