Best Answer

The first battle against the Persians was at the River Granicus, after Alexander crossed the Hellespont.

Then he defeated them again, this time they were led by their King Darius III, at the Pinarus River (known as the Battle of Issus) - Darius fled.

Alexander then defeated them again at the last and final battle against Darius III, which was at Guagamela.

After this battle, Darius fled again and was captured and assassinated by his own men. Alexander then proclaimed himself King of the Persian Empire.

He was defeated by the Indian king Porus at the Hydaspes River in the Punjab in 326 BCE.

Early Greek historians and modern scholars have consistently hidden this in their writings just to glorify Alexander as an unbeaten hero. He of course died of illness or was assassinated.
