War Description

Rise and fall of the Mogul empire in Northern India.

LIST OF BATTLES

Battle / Outcome Description

Battle of Panipat

Moguls defeat Delhi

Fought April 20, 1526, between the Delhi Mohammedans,

10,000 strong, with 100 elephants, under Ibrahim, and the

Mongols, about 2,000 picked men, under Baber, the first of

the Great Moguls. Ibrahim was totally defeated, being

himself among the slain. The battle marked the end of the

Afghan dynasty of Delhi, and the commencement of the

Mogul Empire.

Page 6: G.k

Battle of Chitor

Gujeratis defeat Chitor

The second sack of Chitor took place in 1535, when the

Rana Bikrmajit made a gallant but unavailing defense

against the Gujeratis under Bahadur Shah. Thirteen

thousand women were slain by the remnant of the garrison,

before they opened the gates, and rushed out to fall

fighting. Only one small child of the Royal line escaped the

massacre, namely Udai Singh.

Siege of Chunar

Moguls defeat Afghans

This fortress, which was held for Shir Khan Sur, Nawab of

Bengal, was besieged by the Moguls under Humayun in

1538. This is the first siege in Indian history which was

conducted according to the rules of war, and was notable

for the use made of artillery by both sides. After a siege

lasting several months, the garrison was forced by famine

to surrender.

Siege of Kandahar

Moguls defeat Afghans

Siege was laid to Kandahar in March, 1545, by the Moguls,

under Humayun. The place, which was defended by an

Afghan garrison under Mirza Askari, held out for five

months, when, weakened by famine and desertion, the

garrison was forced to surrender.

Battle of Panipat

Moguls defeat Hindus

Fought November 5, 1556, between Akbar, the Great

Mogul, with about 20,000 troops, and the forces of the

revolted Hindu Rajahs, 100,000 strong, under Hemu. The

Hindus attacked, and the onslaught of the elephants being

repulsed, their ranks were thrown into disorder, and the

Moguls gaineda complete victory. Hemu was wounded and

captured. By this victory Akbar recovered Delhi, which had

fallen into the hands of the rebels.

Battle of Merta

Moguls defeat Hindus

This strong fortress, belonging to the Rajput Rajah of

Malwar, was besieged, 1561, by Sharf-ud-Din Hussein, one

of the generals of Akbar, the Great Mogul. The place held

out gallantly for several months, but was then forced by

famine to capitulate. One of the Mal-war chiefs, however,

refused all terms, and cut his way out at the head of 500

men, of whom 250 fell in the enterprise.

Battle of Chitor It was during the reign of Udai Singh that the third sack took

Page 7: G.k

Moguls defeat Chitor place in 1568, by the Delhi Moguls under Akbar. Udai Singh

deserted his capital, which was defended by a garrison of

8,000 Rajputs under Jagmal. The siege was scientifically

conducted, and, a breach having been effected, an assault

was ordered. A mine, however, was exploded in the breach,

killing 500 of the assailants, and the assault was repulsed.

Shortly afterwards Jagmal was killed, and a second assault

proved successful, the garrison, refusing to surrender, being

put to the sword.

Siege of Ahmednugger

Drawn Battle (Moguls vs.

Deccan)

This place was besieged in 1599 by the Moguls under Mirza

Khan, one of Akbar's generals, and defended by a garrison

of Deccanis under Chand Bibi, ex-Queen of Bijapur. A

practicable breach having been effected, the garrison was

disposed to surrender, but Chand Bibi, heading the

defenders, superintended the repair of the breach, and

succeeding in holding out until a peace was signed by which

the Great Mogul agreed to leave Ahmednugger

unmolested.

Siege of Kandahar

Persians defeat Moguls

In the autumn of 1648 the Persians, under Abbas II, laid

siege to the city, which was defended by a Mogul garrison.

An attempt to relieve it was made by Aurungzebe, but he

arrived to find it already in the hands of the Persians. He in

turn laid siege to it, but was unsuccessful, and after four

months was compelled to retire. Subsequent attempts to

recapture the city were made by Said Ullah, the Vizier, and

Dara Sheko, the eldest son of Shah Jehan, but without

success.

Battle of Samaghar

Aurungzeb defeat Moguls

Fought June, 1658, between the army of the Great Mogul,

Shah Jehan, under Dara, and the forces of his rebellious

sons, Aurungzebe and Marad. Dara was totally defeated,

and his army dispersed, and three days later the rebels

occupied Agra, where Shah Jehan was imprisoned and

Aurungzebe seized the crown.

Battle of Cajwah

Aurungzeb defeat Moguls

Fought January 8, 1659, between the Moguls of Delhi,

under Aurungzebe, the Great Mogul, and the army raised

by his brother Shuja, in support of Dara, the rightful heir to

Page 8: G.k

the throne. After an obstinate conflict, Shuja was driven

from the field with heavy losses in men, leaving behind him

114 guns.

Siege of Gingi

Moguls defeat Hindus

This place was besieged by the Moguls in 1689, and was

defended by Rajah Ram. The siege was carried on in

desultory fashion, first by Zulfikar Khan, then by Kambaksh,

son of Aurungzebe, and then again by Zulfikar Khan. After

three years had been wasted, Aurungzebe took command

in person, and after conniving at the escape of Rajah Ram,

carried the place by storm.

Battle of Agra

Moguls defeat Rebels

Fought 1713, between the Great Mogul, Jehandar Shah,

with 70,000 troops, under Zulfikar Khan, and the rebel

Moguls under Jehandar's nephew, Farokshin. After a

stubborn fight, the rebels overpowered the Imperial troops,

and Jehandar Shah was captured and put to death by

Farokshin, who ascended the throne.

Battle of Palkhed

Fought February 28, 1728 between a Maratha army under

Baji Rao II, and a Mugul army under the Nazim of

Hyderabad. The Marathas were victorious.

Battle of Carnoul

Persians defeat Moguls

Fought 1739, between the Persians under Nadir Shah, and

the Moguls under the Emperor Mohammed Shah and his

Grand Vizier, Nizam-ul-Mulk. The Persian veterans

completely defeated the raw Mogul levies, and Nadir Shah

shortly afterwards occupied and sacked Delhi, carrying off,

it is said, jewels and coin to the value of thirty millions

sterling.

Siege of Trichinopoly

Marathas defeat Chundra

This place was captured, after a three months' siege, by the

Mahrattas, March 26, 1741. It had been provisioned for a

long siege by Chunda Sahib, but the Mahrattas retired to a

distance of 250 miles, whereupon the avarice of Chunda

Sahib impelled him to sell the grain which he had in store.

The Mahrattas, who had been counting upon this, retraced

their steps, and the garrison were in a very short time

starved into submission.

Page 9: G.k

Battle of Panipat

Afghans defeat Marathas

Fought 1759, between the Mahrattas, 85,000 strong, under

attacked, and dispersed Ahmed's Indian troops, but on the

Duranis coming into action, the Mahrattas were broken and

utterly routed, with enormous loss. The Bhao, and the son

of the Peshwa were among the slain.
