The purpose, route and farthest country of Alexander Crusade

Alexander's Crusade has many purposes, one is to expand the territory of Greece, the other is to open up trade routes and build Greece into a prosperous empire. Alexander devoted himself to learning from Achilles and made brilliant achievements through his own efforts. After Alexander's father was killed, in order to get rid of the control of the Macedonian empire, the conquered city-states joined forces to erupt an uprising. It took Alexander two years to quell the riots in the Greek city-states.

In order to realize the ambition of conquering the world and building an empire, Alexander turned his attention to the Persian Empire. At that time, the Persian Empire had a vast territory and a steady stream of wealth. In order to gain wealth and realize the ambition of enslaving the Persian Empire, Alexander decided to move eastward. In the spring of 334 BC, Alexander took more than 30,000 troops on a journey to the East. Before Alexander's eastward expedition, a general asked Alexander what his purpose was. Alexander said that through the Crusades, he could acquire endless wealth, thus bringing endless wealth to his subjects.

The soldiers infected by Alexander's ambition were very excited, and they were determined to follow Alexander to plunder more wealth in the East. The purpose of Alexander's eastward expedition was also related to the background of the times. In the 4th century BC, the Greek city-states clashed constantly in order to safeguard their own interests. In order to prevent the struggle between the Greek city-states, Alexander knew that only when the Macedonian empire was strong could Greece be better unified. In 334 BC, Alexander appointed General Antipat as Regent, and personally led his troops to start the Crusades from Pilars and the Daniil Strait.

Alexander's eastward expedition route

Alexander changed history. Some people admire Alexander very much, while others say that Alexander is ambitious. However, these things were commented by later generations, and Alexander's life was very brilliant. Alexander's Crusade took place from 334 BC to 324 BC. Alexander was the king of Macedonia at that time, and his crusade route was Alexander's aggressive war against Persia and other countries.

Alexander's crusade route is very rich and takes a long time, which adds up to 10 years. In the 4th century BC, Alexander laid the foundation of the Greek state. In the first 334 years, Alexander began the eastward expedition route. The first country was Persia in the East. Alexander set out from Persia and successively laid down Egypt, Asia Minor and the two river basins. In ten years, Alexander established the Alexander Empire across Europe, Asia and Africa.

Although Alexander's invasion of Asia has brought a lot of harm to Asian countries. Some damage is even devastating and irreversible. This is the disadvantage of Alexander's crusade. However, Alexander's eastward expedition still has certain advantages. Objectively speaking, it was Alexander's Crusade that opened the connection between East and West.

Since then, transactions between eastern countries and western countries have become more and more frequent, and many Greeks emigrated to western countries because of poverty. It can be said that it is beneficial to both eastern and western countries and greatly promotes the overall exchange between the East and the West.

Alexander's crusade reached its farthest point.

By understanding the route of Alexander's crusade, we know that Alexander's crusade reached the Indus Valley as far as possible. In the summer of 327 BC, Alexander learned of the existence of the Indus Valley during the Crusade. Alexander heard that the Indus Valley was extremely rich. In order to plunder more wealth, Alexander decided to conquer the Indus Valley. Alexander immediately left Bactria with his army. At this time, Alexander's army had about thirty thousand soldiers. Led by Alexander, the soldiers set out from the Kabul River and entered the upper reaches of the Indus River through khyber pass.

In 326 BC, when the Alexander Expeditionary Force arrived in the Jie Hellem Valley, the troops of the Kingdom of Poroshenko launched a fierce resistance. In order to conquer the Indus Valley, Alexander ordered his soldiers to cross the river. Under the leadership of Alexander, the kingdom of poros was defeated. In this battle, Alexander destroyed more than 20 thousand Polos soldiers. Because of Alexander's Crusade, King Porus had to surrender to Alexander. After conquering the kingdom of Porus, Alexander's expeditionary force continued eastward. Encouraged by Alexander, the expeditionary force reached the Xue Xisi River.

After reaching the Xue Xisi River, Alexander's Crusaders began to spread epidemics, and the soldiers gradually got tired of fighting, so Alexander was forced to stop the Crusade. Therefore, Alexander's Crusades reached as far as Oedipus along the Indus River. In BC 10, Alexander decided to stop the Crusade and withdraw his troops. Alexander divides into three roads at the mouth of the Indus River, all the way to the mouth of the Euphrates River, all the way across the Indian Ocean coast, and all the way to Ala Hosia.
