The correct answer is I-II-III-IV. The First Anglo-Sikh War (1845–1846) was fought between the British East India Company and the Sikh Empire (Sikh Khalsa Army). The battles occurred in the following exact chronological sequence:Battle of Mudki (18 December 1845): The opening battle of the war where British forces under Sir Hugh Gough intercepted the advancing Sikh army.Battle of Ferozeshah (21–22 December 1845): Fought just days after Mudki, this was one of the fiercest battles where the British suffered heavy casualties but ultimately forced a Sikh retreat due to betrayals in the Sikh leadership.Battle of Aliwal (28 January 1846): Fought by a British force led by Sir Harry Smith, resulting in a decisive victory that cleared the Sikh threat to the British supply lines.Battle of Sobraon (10 February 1846): The final, bloody battle of the war. The British comprehensively defeated the Sikh army, leading directly to the signing of the Treaty of Lahore and the subjugation of the Sikh Empire.
