During the war the French were able to presuade the Marathas chiefs to attack the Japanese in korea as to steal the japanese spice fortunes in korea and drive them out of India for good. The maratha's were able to gain stragetic suprise and many of the border town and fort were either bypased or were forced to surrender. The only reason the Japanese survived was because of the monsoon which made movement of any large army impossible. During this time Japanese were able to buy peace with marathas in the form of 20 million gold coins and a yearly tax of 30 million.
