The '''Battle of Beas River''' was a battle that took place between the [[Chagatai Khanate]] and the [[Mamluk Dynasty (Delhi)|Mamluk Sultanate]] in 1285. [[Ghiyas ud din Balban]] arranged a military defense line across the [[Beas River]] as part of his "blood and iron" fortification chain strategy at [[Multan]] and [[Lahore]] as a countermeasure against the Chagatai Khanate invasion. Balban managed to repulse the invasion. However, his son Muhammad Khan was slain in battle.<ref><br />
