What great armies did Alexander the Great defeat?

Alexander the Great defeated numerous great armies during his conquests. Some of the notable victories include the defeat of the Persian Empire led by Darius III at the Battle of Gaugamela, the conquest of the Egyptian and Persian forces at the Battle of Issus, and the defeat of the Indian army led by King Porus at the Battle of Hydaspes. These victories solidified Alexander's status as one of history's greatest military commanders.


Who conquered the Indus valley from King Darius and the Persian Empire?

Apparently Alexander the Great conquered it and gave it to the local King Porus.Another view:That is the conundrum. The Persian Empire had ceased to exist by then and Darius had been murdered by his own princes. Alexander was in fact attacking King Porus to strip him of the northern Indus Valley. He allegedly defeated Porus and amazingly gave it back to him and threw in the added gift of the kingdom of his own loyal ally King Taxiles who had helped him defeat Porus. This is a befuddled story which suggests that Alexander didn't defeat Porus or conquer the Indus Valley.

Who did Alexander the great defeat?

The common answer is 'nobody', however there is a question mark over why, after allegedly defeating King Porus of Paurava, he gave his kingdom back back to him, conquered more land and gave it to him, and gave him the land of his own local ally King Taxiles of Taxila. It would seem that the Battle o Hydaspes was a best a draw, if not a defeat for Alexander, and the terms of settlement were that Alexander deliver land and service to Porus before being permitted to move on.
