1. Indian history is difficult to talk about, especially in this period - it is basically a continent of its own, things are happening all over the place and not everything can be covered in one video. In this one, we largely ignored European colonialism, local cultural and social upheaval, and much more. The good thing is, we are here to stay and will cover more topics pertaining to the history of India and neighboring countries. A few videos on the history of India are in the description, check them out. 2. There will be a mini-series covering the campaigns of Nader shah, it is currently being researched. 3. The next few months we will focus on finishing the series that we started in order to have a clean(er) slate in 2021. 4. If our work is important to you and we feature in your weekly entertainment, consider tossing us a dollar, every bit helps: www.patreon.com/kingsandgenerals

[@jaichind]

In the 1750s it was clear that the Moghul empire was going to fall apart. Marathas, Durrani, British and French were battling to dominate India. Everyone put their money on Marathas or Durrani while no one thought that the British would eventually win. When the Battle of Plassey in 1757 took place, none of the regional Indian powers thought it more than some Bengal dynastic dispute and totally underestimated the threat the British posed. This was one of the main reasons why the British won out at so little cost: no one thought they were a real threat until it was too late.

On the contrary, many Maratha records show they were aware of the threat that the British posed where some regiments were also dispatched towards Bengal, especially by the Bhonsles of Nagpur. British were harassed on countless times. But a consolidated approach towards dislodging the British was missing due to multiple factors.

[@jaichind]

[@DeccanPS]

@@jaichind The reason is the video that we just watched. After Panipat(1761 and Buxar was in 1764), there was momentary setback to Maratha power and also a brief period of inward looking outlook until Madhavrao but unfortunately he died too soon, otherwise history would've been different.

Marathas made several strategic mistakes prior to this battle. They were experts in guerrilla warfare but chose to face enemy in field battle (jat king suggested them not to), they kept thousands to pilgrims with them which costed them mobility and moral burden, their leader was less experienced, marathas didn't have good allies in North india, their reinforcement didn't arrive in time due to irresponsible action of their king.

[@evox777]

"jat king suggested them not to". This is completely wrong. The Jats were former allies of Marathas but the two had become enemies because of Jats reluctance to pay 25-50% tax imposed by marathas on all provinces. The Marathas had sent a threatening note to the Jats telling them they will be coming for the Jats once they are done dealing with Abdali. As a result, the Jats had allied with abdali and provided him with crucial intel about the makeup of maratha forces and the French weaponry held by them. They also slaughtered many maratha escapees once the battle was over. "What, have I come from the south relying on your strength? I will do what I like. You may stay here or go back to your own place. After overthrowing the Abdali, I shall come to reckoning with you." --- Overconfident Marathas to Jats and Rajputs

This was a turning point for the subcontinent, equal in effect to the Battle of Waterloo.

You skip a lot of details but you’re not far from the truth. The Durranis lost out despite victory and Balaji Baji Rao was also going there with a major contingent. Abdali would’ve faced a rout if he stayed. It did weaken Maratha strength for a short while(Haider Ali overthrew the Wodeyars within mere days of Panipat) but the real effect was in the Maratha system. Mahadaji Shinde and Nana Fadnavis did manage to re-establish Maratha dominance but it came at the cost of devolution of power. When different Subedars became Rajas in their own right and the centralized power of the Peshwas and the Chhatrapathi weakened, it enabled the British and the French to enter and hijack the system the Marathas had put in place. The real tragedy of Panipat was that the Marathas could no longer put up a united front against external aggressors and had become dependent on mercenaries for their army. The different Rajas started caring more about the interests of the kingdom than those of the empire and there were few leaders who could think of the interests of the Marathas as a whole. They also lost out in terms of capable leadership. It’s one of those “could have beens” in history.

This is just absolutely amazing and would love to see more coverage of the Peshwai and more videos in general on this period. Maybe you can do a special episode on Baji Rao I? Or the Anglo-Maratha wars also have some interesting campaigns, battles, betrayal and generally a lot of political intrigue going on. As to the video itself, excellent narration and a quite precise account. I'd just like to make one minor addition of a key event that played a big role in the collapse of the Maratha center towards the end of the battle itself. The Peshwa's eldest son, Vishwas Rao, was a young but highly capable warrior and commander, greatly beloved by both his troops as well as his uncle, Sadashiv Rao Bhau. Between 130-2pm, when the battle at the center was at its peak and the Marathas still had a chance of turning things around, it is said that Vishwas Rao was killed either by an arrow, small-arms fire or a stray cannonball (the exact cause of his death has never been established). The Maratha warriors lost heart very soon after that and the will to carry on fighting started to dissipate. Sadashiv Rao meanwhile is said to have been so aggrieved by his beloved nephew's death that he dismounted from his elephant and led a ferocious but ultimately futile charge into the Afghan lines, ultimately dying and leaving the Maratha center leaderless at the most crucial point.

“Two pearls have been dissolved, 27 gold coins have been lost and of the silver and copper the total cannot be cast up”. This was the rather cryptic message Nana Saheb Peshwa received after the shattering loss at Panipat. The two pearls were his son Vishwas Rao and cousin Sadashiv Rao Bhau who led the campaign. The 27 gold coins were the Maratha sardars, and the rest the soldiers of the army, who were massacred en masse. It was one of the worst blows ever to the Maratha empire, the Peshwa, could not recover from the debacle and died broken hearted in the very city of Pune, that he so lovingly built. Panipat though a disaster, threw up some great heroes whose stories continue to be told to date. And one of them was Ibrahim Khan Gardi. The Gardis are basically a group of tribes such as Bhils, Vanzaras, Pardhis, Mahadeo Koli, Masan Jogi residing mostly in Marathwada region. They were especially renowned for their skill in artillery and handling cannons, and they served the Peshwas as their personal guards, and were known for their loyalty to their masters. Ibrahim Khan Gardi was initially serving with the Nizam, and had fought against the Marathas during the famous Battle of Palkhed, renowned for his artillery skills on the battlefield. He was trained by the French General De Bussy, who was in alliance with the Nizam then, making him acquainted with the latest artillery techniques. It was this factor that made the Peshwa Balaji Baji Rao, invite him to join the Maratha army impressed by his skills, through his cousin Sadashiv Rao Bhau. Ibrahim agreed to join on the condition that the Marathas would not attack Hyderabad, and Bhau agreed to it. He became the deputy commander in chief, heading a huge battalion of 10,000 men consisting of cavalry, artillery, infantry, archers as well as musketeers. His valour and integrity, made him close to both the Peshwa and Bhau. When the Panipat battle began, Gardi had suggested using cannons extensively to break down the Afghan frontline, and only then deploy the cavalry. However some of the Maratha generals envious of Gardi’s growing influence with Bhau and the Peshwa, refused to heed the instructions, while some others fled from the battlefield, leaving the Maratha defences wide open. Gardi was heading the left most flank of the Maratha army, and Abdali ordered his forces to surround and destroy that part. Bhau ordered two cavalry units under Vitthal Vinchurkar and Damaji Gaikwad to protect the Gardi division. However their inexperience and overenthusiasm, saw them charging at the Rohillas all by themselves. It was a disastrous tactic, as the cavalry were armed only with swords, making them a fair target for the Rohilla artillery, who easily picked them off. The Rohillas soon encircled the Gardis, and outflanked the Marathas, while Shah Wali pressed on from the front, as the Gardis fell one by one. Ibrahim Khan Gardi however kept defending resolutely as the combined Afghan-Rohilla attacks failed to dislodge him from his position. It was one of the bloodiest phases of the battle as around 12000 Afghan cavalry and infantry men fell from the cannon fire unleashed by the Gardis. Even when the news of the Peshwa’s son Vishwas Rao, falling on the battle field, reached Ibrahim Khan, he still kept defending against a much larger Afghan army, till one by one all his soldiers fell, and he was left standing alone. Some of the Maratha sardars and generals had already fled from Panipat, sensing impending doom, but Ibrahim Khan Gardi, fought resolutely till the end out of sheer loyalty to his master. After he was captured Ibrahim Khan was kept in captivity at the tent of the Nawab of Awadh, Shuja-ud-Daulah. Knowing this Abdali demanded Shuja to present Ibrahim to him. Though Shuja was reluctant considering Gardi was wounded badly, he had to agree under pressure. The Afghans by now were doing a barbaric war dance over the dead bodies of both Bhau and Vishwas Rao. Soon Gardi was bought before Abdali, who asked him “Are you the commander of 10 platoons of the Maratha Army?” “Yes” “And you served the French before” “Yes that is why I got the title of Gardi” “And then you served the Nizam” “Yes” “You left the Nizam and joined the Marathas. You served the Kafirs spoke in their language, you should be ashamed of yourself and repent for what you have done”. Ibrahim Khan shot back- “Shame and repentance what for? Does one feel shame for loving one’s own land? Why should I repent for shedding my blood to defend my land Abdali?” An infuriated Abdali asked him-“Do you know whom you are speaking to?” Ibrahim replied calmly-“Yes I know, what can you do apart from taking my life? And whoever you are, for sure you are not the angel of God”. “It is strange being a Muslim you ruin your life for the Kafirs” “Then you do not know who is a true Muslim Abdali. The one who destroys his land, the one who joins hands with the foreigners seeking to invade the land is not a true Muslim ever”. “You have sinned Ibrahim siding with the Kafirs against your fellow Muslims, repent else you shall be cut into pieces”. Ibrahim Khan did not flinch even though wounded all over and shot back-“You can only cut my body into pieces, what else can do you do Abdali?” “I am giving you one last chance, seek repentance and you shall be freed, we will give you a good position in our army” Ibrahim laughed and replied-“If you let me free , I shall return to Pune, and this time come back once again to Panipat to destroy the rest of your army, along with you”. “I am giving you one last chance Ibrahim, repent for your sins” “A martyr never repents Abdali. You should be the one repenting for killing the defenseless, wounded and prisoners”. And then Ibrahim Khan Gardi was brutally tortured to death, cutting off his arms and limbs one by one, as he bled to death, but refused to surrender or ask for mercy. Until he finally left the world, calling out Allah on his lips. Even after his death, the Gardis kept serving the Peshwas, till the end of their rule in 1818, after which they joined the East India Company, serving as sepoys, musketeers in the Poona Horse, Bombay Sappers and Maratha Light Infantry.

The style of warfare reminds me so much of the Thirty Years War. Decisive cavalry charges against all odds, usage of light artillery pieces against troops, not yet realising you could put together all sorts of artillery in single battery, and make holes in the enemies formation instead of using them piecemeal. Also examples of infantry holding its own against cavalry, mass volleys of musket-fire etc. Even the strategic movements of both armies before the battle reminds of a K&G Thirty years vid I watched a while back. Surprisingly, the Maratha cavalry did so well after getting pushed back where most would have routed at that point, everyone thinks so badly of cavalry charging against well placed infantry except when it works.

When he talked about battle cries, I thought the background music would change to "Hara Hara"! :D :P

[@iamtoocoooool]

This battle was literally fought on the ground where my villages settled now. There was an old board marking the battle ground which is no longer there.

Keep up the good work man. You are doing more justice to Indian history than Bollywood and the Indian Education system combined

[@pritpalsira]

Thank you for covering historic battles in India. I can only imagine the amount of research work you have put into this. Well done.

India: "Year of 4 Emperors" Romans: "Lol, noobs."

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

"Those are rookie numbers. You gotta pump those up!"

[@Isildun9]

Also Rome: "Come see us when you've had a Year of Six Emperors. Plebs".

[@manthanmoudgalya5271]

Most of Indian history especially that of hindus .. is very sternly dictated by globalists and you know who

Marathao ke sath kai sare bache,aurate,budhe aur jvaan log the as terth yatri jinhe afganio ne bandhak bna liya tha maratha commanders ki dead bodies ko vo as a trophy use karna chahte the but Awadh ke nvaab ne unhe besa karne nhi diya gold se tolkar li thi usne unki bodies. Shamshera (Peshwa Bajirao ke bete) ki dead nody bhi nhi mili thi uske baad and u are saying respect to duranni .

[@vikram_shahi]

@@veer8885 that’s their culture and that’s what they are taught. 40-50k soldiers killed another 30-40k civilians were enslaved. Only few thousand civilians and 8-10k soldiers escaped. Tho within 10 years in 1771,Mahadji shine took brutal revenge against Rohilla Afghans and wiped out his army.

Marathas had too many enemies to Handle at a Time 🥺

Not maratha bro every kingdom

[@amarjadhav9137]

@Rani Khan marathas were fasted for 2 weeks...abdali didn't had any enemy from his back...

[@amarjadhav9137]

@Rani Khan Marathas intentionally didn't finishe moghuls... Other wise. the mooghul empire salary and his wifes salad was also decoded by marathas

[@drdre5030]

@Eren787. Persian were badly defeated many times from indians

[@ENTERTAININGVIDEOS1]

BMA They created those enemies themselves...

[@the420aditya]

Even after panipat battle marathas were in Delhi after 10 years ,though panipat battle is important but even more than that is death of madhavrao peshwa at Young age, which really weaken maratha confederacy. Maratha dream of creating pan Hindu kingdom was given deathblow by panipat and death of madhavrao peshwa.

[@debjitmishra4819]

Finally i saw a sensible comment. More than panipat the actual disaster was Shrimant madhav rao peshwa death

[@vssharma1810]

Tuberculosis killed him

[@amoghthorave3385]

Yes, he died at the age of 28 due to Tuberculosis.

[@keyboardwarrior4590]

Yeah..indian with common sense right here..admitted the facts n dont let his emotions control him..good job sir.

[@deeptisengupta2427]

The mughals did not weaken due to aurangzeb's death as the video suggests. They were already defeated by the marathas during the long 27 years war that followed the death of shivaji maharaj in 1680.

[@dr.mushtaqmangat4469]

Great, wonderful, amazing, must appreciate,

[@Indiancomicsreview]

Fact :- Ahmed Shah Abdali then sent a letter to Peshwa feeling sorry for the loss and told him he wanted peace and this war happens as you took Punjab from me. He feared Peshwa will come to revenge with one lakh force as he was in central India and Abdali got substantial loss and was not capable to fight again if Peshwa himself has came to Delhi. That letter of Abdali can be seen at Pune Museum.

[@prasadsawant2339]

Thanks for bringing this ❤️❤️ we request more videos on Mughal - Maratha conflict too.....

[@priyanshupradhan7318]

You really appease each and every Indian by your way of narration and stories and your background music for this video is really soothing

[@Jamshed.Rehman]

I have read numerous books & articles on the 3rd Battle of Panipat as my great grand father had also participated in it on Ahmad Shah Abdali's side. This documentary happens to be the best I have ever seen/read. Great upload. Thanks for sharing.
