What was the war cry of the Mughals, the Rajputs, the Marathas, Vijay Nagar, the Portuguese people, and the people from Bijapur?

These were some of the war cries:

The Marathas: Hara Hara Mahadev! हर हर महादेव! (Hail Lord Shiva!)

The Rajputs: Jai Bajrang Bali! जय बजरंग बली (Hail Mighty Hanuman, the possessor of the strength of the thunderbolt!) or Raja Ramchandra Ki Jai राजा रामचंद्र की जय! (Hail Lord Ramchandra!)

The Sikhs: Bole So Nihaal, Sat Sri Akaal! बोले सो निहाल, सत श्री अकाल! (Whoever utters the phrase shall be fulfilled, the Almighty is the eternal truth!)

The Gurkhas: Jai Mahakali, Ayo Gorkhali! जय महाकाली आयो गोरखाली! (Hail Goddess Mahakali, the Gurkhas are here!)

The Portuguese: “Santiago!” or “Portugal e São Jorge!” ( Portugal and Saint George!)

War cry of the Muslim dynasties, including the Mughals: “Allahu Akbar!” (God is Great!) or Din! Din! (The Faith, The Faith!) also, Dih (strike), Sitan (seize), ba-kash (kill), ba-zan (smite).
