Gough's main army had now been reinforced, and rejoined by Smith's division, they attack the main Sikh bridgehead at Sobraon on February 10.

Tej Singh is said to have deserted the Sikh army early in the battle.

Although the Sikh army resists as stubbornly as at Ferozeshah, Gough's troops eventually break into their position.

The bridges behind the Sikhs break under British artillery fire, or are ordered to be destroyed behind him by Tej Singh (ostensibly to prevent British pursuit).

The Sikh army is trapped.

None of them surrender, and the British troops show little mercy.

This victory effectively breaks the Sikh army.
