Ulugh Beg advances toward Herat and massacres…
1448 CE
Ulugh Beg advances toward Herat and massacres its people in 1448, but Ala-ud-Daulah's brother Mirza Abul-Qasim Babur bin Baysonqor comes to his aid, defeating Ulugh Beg.
Babur is one of the many people involved in the succession struggle that takes place during Shah Rukh's last years.
Together with Khalil Sultan (a great-great-grandson of Timur), he had plundered the baggage-train of the army and has made his way to Khurasan.
