FEROZESHAH

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 282 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FAT-FLA
FEROZESHAH , a
village
  in the Punjab, India, notable as the
scene
  of one of the
chief
  battles in the first
Sikh
  War. The
battle
  immediately succeeded that of Mudki, and was fought on the 21st and 22nd of December 1845. During its course Sir Hugh Gough, the British
commander
 , was overruled by the
governor
 -general, Lord Hardinge, who was acting as his second in command (see
SIKH
  WARS). At the end of the first day's fighting the British had occupied the Sikh position, but had not gained an undisputed victory. On the following morning the
battle
  was resumed, and the Sikhs were reinforced by a second army under Tej Singh; but through cowardice or treachery Tej Singh withdrew at the
critical
  moment, leaving the
field
  to the British. In the course of the fight the British lost 694 killed and 1721 wounded, the vast
majority
  being British troops, while the Sikhs lost Too guns and about 5000 killed and wounded.
