Afghan Governor Khwaja Abed Khan of Lahore recovered from the defeat of an Afghan army at Sialkot in August to besiege the victorious Sikhs at Gujranwala, northeast of Lahore. He was, in turn, besieged by Sikh General Charat Singh, who led a massive attack on the Afghan camp. Khwaja Abed lost almost all his guns and baggage and fled back to his capital.
