Alexander the Great Vs Darius III of Persia (Iran)

During Battle of Gaugamela, Alexander the Great fought against Darius III in a battle that was very important. Alexander noticed a weak spot in the Persian army’s defense on their left side. He quickly led his cavalry, known as the Companion cavalry, through this gap and almost had a direct confrontation with Darius himself. However, Darius ran away from the battlefield again, which greatly demoralized his army. As a result, Alexander’s troops were able to defeat and kill many Persian soldiers.
