Question

I am curious to know the happenings caused in first battle of Panipat which are described in the history of India. What do that battles states ?

Answer 1

The first battle of Panipat was fought between army of Babur and Ibrahim Lodi (Sultan of Delhi). The war was fought on 21st April 1526. In this war, Babur defeats the Lodi and started the Mughal empire in India. This was the war which invloves the use of gun powder firearms and field Artillery. The battle was fought near the small village of Panipat, where no. of battles were happened for the take over of Northern India.

in this war, Babur invades the much larger ruling army of Ibrahim lodi. It was estimated that Babur^,s force consist of around 15,000 men and 20-24 field Artilleries', whereas lodi^,s had 30,000-40,000 men and at least 1000 war elephants. Babur^,s gun changes the face of battle, because Lodi hadn't any cannon and thundering sounds of Babur^,s cannon Frightened the Lodi^,s elephants causing them to squash the Lodi^,s own army.

To win the war, along with cannons, Babur also introduce the new war tactics which were tulughma and araba. These two tactics made the Babur^,s army more Rethal. Ibrahim Lodi was died on the fields of Battle, as he is abandoned by his liege man and generals. If Lodi had survived for an another hour of war, he could win because Babur^,s reveries were going to empty and his troops were rapidly tiring.
