At first her baba didn't have any faith on her when she sent Buxi away and now suddenly her baba is praising her non existent capabilities. Everyone knows they cannot win against Brits, not in direct confrontation, Buxi also retorted to jungles and used guerrilla warfare techniques against Brits. He knew he couldn't possibly hold up puri for long. At last he was put on house arrest and died as a political prisoner. His rewarded pension was also stopped after his death.
Kalyani is so much confident of her so called veerta that she is ready to make her army fight against a much superior army just because she is god damn stupid. I am not saying she should accept Fletcher's offer, she shouldn't but that doesn't mean she becomes ready to fight without thinking straight.
