'''This was an event during the [[1st Afghan War]]'''<br>'''For context see main article [[The Army of Retribution March to Kabul]]'''
== Synopsis ==
Both brigades of Pollock's army re-united at the valley of Tezeen where they were met by Akbar Khan and his forces from [[Kabul]]. The Afghans held the heights around the valley but a series of sorties drove them back and this victory left the way clear for the advance to Kabul.
