Alexander Faced Down The King Of Persia😱 #history #ancienthistory #alexanderthegreatAdded:
Did you know Alexander charged directly at the king of Persia during battle?
And what happened next changed history.
At the Battle of Issus, Alexander faced Darius the third himself. The Persian army massively outnumbered the Macedonians, but Alexander saw an opening.
So instead of retreating, he charged directly towards Darius. The Persian king panicked and fled the battlefield.
Once the king ran, the Persian [music] army collapsed. And that's how Alexander shattered Persia.
