First Campaign Against Turkomen Hazaras
The First Campaign against Turkoman Hazaras was a Mughal Empire campaign against Hazaras in the 16th century. Following Babur's departure from Kabul for Qalat, the Hazaras took advantage of his absence to raid his territories. After Babur had returned to Kabul from his victory at the Battle of Qalat, he remained encamped in the Chaharbagh during the harsh winter of 1505 CE where he planned to make an excursion against them. He then went into Kabul city into the palace of Ulugh Beg Mirza, called Bostān-Serāi, prepared for the campaign and set out from there on December 28, 1505 CE. Campaign Babur had sent an advance party, which made a sudden attack on a small party of Hazaras at Jangalak, in the mouth of the valley of Hindu Kush in Panjshir, and dispersed them. A few Hazaras had lain in ambush in a cave near the valley of Hindu Kush. Sheikh Dervish Kokaltash had gone up close to the mouth of this den, without suspecting anything, when a Hazara from within shot him in the ch ...

Jahangir Mirza II
Jahangir Mirza II (born 1485) was the second son of Umar Sheikh Mirza and half brother of Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire. He was two years younger to Babur and his mother, Fatima Sultan, belonged to the clan of Mughal Tuman Begs. Jahangir Mirza was the focus of a rival coterie of Mughal Begs for claiming the family fiefdom of Umar Sheikh, the kingdom of Farghana and its dependencies, in the initial years of Babur's reign as a young Timurid prince. However, Jahangir Mirza later shared an almost stable relation with Babur as is evident by his survival as a Mirza with his own following and his later status as a first among equals among the lower-ranking Mirzas of the Timurid clan. Jahangir Mirza was in Babur's camp in the latter part of his career and strongly suggested the launch on attack on Qalat-i-Ghilzai during Babur's illness in 911 AH according to the ''Baburnama''. Jahangir Mirza was present at numerous feasts and celebrations by Babur during his onward march toward ...
