\huge Hello\huge friends,

<b>Thisis not a question of English.But I am telling

The First Battle of Panipat fought between the invading forces of Babur and the Lodi Empire was one of the earliest battles involving gunpowder firearms and field artillery in India.

In this battle new tactics introduced by Babur were the tulghuma and the araba. Tulghuma meant dividing the whole army into various units, viz. the Left, the Right and the Centre. The Left and Right divisions were further subdivided into Forward and Rear divisions. Through this a small army could be used to surround the enemy from all sides. The Centre Forward division was then provided with carts (araba) which were placed in rows facing the enemy and tied to each other with animal hide ropes. Behind them were placed cannons protected and supported by mantlets which could be used to easily maneuver the cannons. These two tactics made Babur's artillery lethal. The cannons could be fired without any fear of being hit, as they were shielded by the bullock carts held in place by hide ropes. The heavy cannons could also be easily traversed onto new targets, as they could be maneuvered by the mantlets which were on wheels.

When Ibrahim's army arrived, he found the approach to Babur's army too narrow to attack. While Ibrahim redeployed his forces to allow for the narrower front, Babur quickly took advantage of the situation to flank (tulghuma) the Lodi army.

Many of Ibrahim's troops, were unable to get into action and as the battle turned against Ibrahim, they fled.

Faced with musket fire, cannon fire and cavalry attacks from all sides, Ibrahim Lodi fought and died with 6,000 of his remaining troops.

Babur had guns and cannons, as the Mughals were one of the three Gunpowder Empires. Babur's guns proved decisive in battle, firstly because Ibrahim Lodi lacked any field artillery, but also because the sound of the cannon frightened Lodi's elephants, causing them to trample Lodi's own men.

The results

1)Babur became the new master of Delhi and Agra , which gave him two strategic points and immense political power.

2)This ended the rule of Delhi Sulthanate, ending their reign of 500 years.

3)This battle paved the way for Mughal dynasty , which ruled till 1857 rebellion.

4) The wealth acquired by Babur after the battle gave him stability and paved the way for another string conquest of Rajputs, Afghans etc.
