Therefore, after Alexander's careful thinking, he believed that this time was not the time to go to war with the main Persian army. He had to ensure that his own army was strong first, and he also needed to have better support supplies, otherwise he would never be able to defeat the Persian army.

Another thing is that Alexander's knowledge is very profound. He was taught by Aristotle, the most famous Greek scholar, and he spent a lot of time studying all aspects of war. He finally decided to start with culture and solve the current problems.

What should we start with culture? We also understand that culture is the most basic factor in the establishment of an empire. Without culture, it cannot be called an empire, because whether it is order or system, or even other rules, even etiquette, etc., these are based on culture and extended to the point.

Therefore, Alexander mainly studied a strategy that Persian Darius II, who was the Persian king Xerxes, once used in the Greek Empire. This strategy was a continuation of sow discord. At this point, Alexander first mainly analyzed the cultural system, and even customs and folk customs among Egyptian city-states.

After analysis, the answer was: Since the Egyptian Empire was enslaved by the Persian Empire, life was slightly better in the hands of Darius I. However, in the hands of Darius II Xerxes, this life was quite acceptable. It was not very bad anyway, like a slave, but not completely a slave. But now it is different. Darius III, also the current Persian king, was simply the Persian king who carried out tyranny to the fullest. The life of civilians among Egyptian city-states, and even the lives of high-level Egyptian leaders, was all due to the various violent exploitation of Darius III. People were not like humans, ghosts, and ghosts, and we can also say that life was very miserable.

This indirectly made Egyptians begin to miss the lives of several pharaohs before Egypt. For example, there were several pharaohs who were particularly powerful in the Egyptian Empire and even reached the point where all nations wanted to pay tribute to the Egyptian Empire. In this way, the Egyptian civilians also had countless slaves, so their quality of life was very high, and even there were many slaves in the civilians' homes, including gold and silver.

Then there is the point, the point is: Darius I was definitely the great Persian king! We have discussed the greatness of Darius I several times before! Therefore, Darius I did not destroy the Egyptian cultural system, but completely preserved the Egyptian cultural system. When Darius II Xerxes was reigned, he did not destroy the Egyptian cultural system. But now, although Darius III did not destroy it, Darius III only likes to enjoy it, and the tyranny was too serious. It is not difficult to see from here that the Egyptian cultural system has not suffered too serious damage, so it can also be judged that the Egyptians actually still have the belief of the sun god, and even believe in the concept of resurrection in the next life, and continue to make mummies.

Finally, after Alexander learned about these situations, he sent an envoy to persuade the Egyptian Empire to surrender to their Macedonian Kingdom. After Alexander's envoy arrived in Egypt, he said to the top leaders of Egypt: Our great Majesty Alexander is now in a life-and-death battle with the Persian Empire, winning two battles, and even defeating the Persian Empire with an army of less than 40,000, and killing more than 100,000 on the spot! It is only a matter of time before the capture of the Persian Empire. But at present, His Majesty Alexander is familiar with the suffering life of Egypt and is willing to liberate you from your slaves. I wonder what you think?

In fact, the Egyptian city-states were waiting for this day, and the Egyptians already knew about the Persian king Darius III fled on the battlefield, or even threw away his robe and fled. After a brief weighing and thinking, the Egyptians believed that at this time, as long as Alexander did not retreat, the army of the Persian Empire would definitely take away Alexander's army first, otherwise they would not be able to deal with these rebellious Egyptian city-states. Therefore, the senior leaders of these Egyptian city-states agreed to the proposal of Alexander's envoy.

After Alexander's messenger returned to Alexander and explained the matter in detail, Alexander was very happy. He immediately rushed his army south and entered Egypt, but the Egyptians also resisted symbolically. In fact, this is just the way the Egyptians did it, mainly to show the Persian king Darius III to show them, proving that they did not rebel, but did not defend Egypt.

Therefore, Alexander's army did not suffer much loss. It only killed dozens of soldiers, and less than a hundred soldiers in Egypt died. Then the entire Egypt was completely captured by Alexander. At this point, the Egyptians became Alexander's citizens, and Alexander would announce the liberation of them from the slavery society. Egypt cheered! He presented countless gold, silver and treasures, even weapons and armor to Alexander, as well as very well-developed warships and chariots of the Egyptians! He also provided more troops, even more population and labor for Alexander.

In the end, in order to thank Alexander for liberating them from slaves, the Egyptians declared that Alexander was: the son of God Amon! In fact, God Amon is the name of the Sun God, the Sun God! So after Alexander was happy, he proclaimed himself as the Pharaoh of Egypt! And from now on, all Egyptians obeyed the orders of their new Pharaoh Alexander.

Then, in order to fight Persia for a long time, Alexander built a city at the mouth of the Nile River. In this city, the Macedonians lived peacefully with the Egyptians, and they built many large warships and developed other military weapons. This place is called Alexandria in our modern era.

So, Alexander has the support supply at present, which solves a huge problem, and it can be said that it has been solved with no effort. With the city-state, it can also command all the Egyptians, which makes Alexander full of confidence.

However, after getting the answer from Alexander's refusal to marry, Darius III fled to the Euphrates River, where he reorganized his old subordinates in a province and began to recruit a large number of troops to fight Alexander to the death! Because Alexander not only took away Egypt, he also did not release Darius III's mother and his wife and daughter back.

This led to the Persian King Darius III reaching a state of great anger. This anger is absolutely crazy! Because Darius III's determination this time is that either he dies himself or Alexander's death, there is absolutely no third possibility!

On October 1st, in the Caucasian field near Nineveh, Darius III's army met Alexander's army again. This time, Darius III was determined to die, so he made very sufficient preparations, and even mobilized the power of the entire Persian Empire to recruit a total of 40,000 cavalry formations! More than one million infantry!!! There are also 200 chariots equipped with very sharp blades! There are also fifteen armored war elephants, that is, the elephants after arming! What is this concept?

From this we are not difficult to see the true power of Persia! At this time, it is possible to completely destroy the world in an army of this size. Of course, except for another ancient country, we are China! Because there are seven armies like such a powerful scale! Moreover, in terms of weapon technology, it is more powerful than those of the Persian Empire! Therefore, it is just a metaphor for the Persian Empire to destroy the world by more than one million troops. As long as we understand, this army is simply like a heavenly soldier and general.

But why did Darius III, the King of Persia, place such a huge army completely on the Gaucamira Plain? In fact, this was carefully considered by Darius III, because Darius III believed that the plains were most suitable for cavalry and chariots. Darius III also ordered the soldiers to flatten the ground again and remove all obstacles, which made the Gaucamira Plain appear even more empty. Since Darius III was here to fight to the death this time, he also learned the previous lesson, that is, the lessons of the Battle of Issus, which gave his soldiers longer spears! He also equipped the chariot with very sharp long swords to try to break through Alexander's square formation.

At this time, Darius III divided the army into two square formations: the first square formation was the main force, which was arranged in two rows of fronts and backs. The left and right wings of the front line were mixed with cavalry and infantry for protection, and the middle part was a deep formation formed by Darius III himself, the infantry and cavalry, and other provinces.

The second phalanx is arranged directly in front of the first phalanx, with fifteen battle elephants and fifty chariots equipped with sharp blades in the center of the phalanx! Darius's Imperial Army, that is, the Immortal Army, followed closely behind. The left wing of the phalanx is one hundred chariots equipped with sharp blades and West Asian cavalry, and the right wing is fifty chariots equipped with sharp blades, as well as Armenian and Cappadocian cavalry.

It would be strange if Alexander was not afraid of such a military formation? This was a really overwhelming concept! So Alexander made a quick decision and while Darius III was still setting up the formation, he personally led a very elite cavalry to survey the terrain and even patroll the enemy situation, making Darius III's strategic deployment clear, and the rear troops strengthened the fortifications while repairing and maintaining the storm.

So after Alexander got this information, he quickly returned to his army and conducted very careful analysis and planning.
