Afterwards, Alexander s Asian campaign continued, as after defeating the remnants of the Acahemenid Empire at the battle of the Persian Gate and the Uxian Defile and the Persian Gates (https://youtu.be/jkm4erY7l-0), Alexander marched into Central Asia, taking on the Saka at the battle of Jaxartes in 329 BC (https://youtu.be/x9qgM6zxzSY). Alexander s next target was the Sogdian Rock, where Spitamenes raised a rebellion against him and we also talk talked about the assassination of Cleitus (https://youtu.be/5YPUhomJ_Dw). In this episode, we will discuss Alexander s campaign in Afghanistan, called Cophen (Kabul) campaign by the ancients and another assassination attempt, this time by the royal pages led by Hermolaus. We are planning to cover all campaigns of Alexander and all of his major battles, including Gaugamela, Tyre, Issus, Granicus, Halicarnassus, Gaza, Hydaspes and more.
