THE KING WHO FLEEED TWICE FROM THE SAME MAN | ALEXANDER THE GREAT PART 2 OF 3
In 334 BC, Alexander crossed into Asia with 37,000 men, provisions for thirty days, and
a massive debt. Four years later, he was the ruler of the Persian Empire.
This second part covers the entire campaign: the Battle of the Granicus River, the decision to
disband his own fleet to defeat the Persian navy from land, the Battle of Issus
and the first escape of Darius III, the seven-month siege of Tyre, the entry into Egypt and
the oracle of Siwa, the Battle of Gaugamela, and the pursuit that ended with Darius
killed by his own men before Alexander could catch him.
