In fact, under the war of Kohima and Imphal from February to August 1944 there was a war between the Indians and the Japanese. The Hindus eventually won. Both sides even used elephants to transport heavy cannons in the mountains and the jungle. In these battles, Indian units lost about 40 thousand soldiers and officers, and as a result of tropical diseases, another 82 thousand.
