Battle of Chausa
Explanation:
Humayun was defeated by Sher Khan in the battle of Chausa in 1539. Humayun divided his army into two halves and instructed Askari to command the first division and lead them forward. His personal command of the second division marched a few miles behind. The two divisions merged at Munger, and Humayun, against the advice of his seasoned officers, crossed the Ganga to its southern side and headed for Agra on the historic Grand Trunk Road.
