Well Porus was not defeated. As said, Indian Kings had immense war experience. Even if Alexander got past Porus, Magadha empire would have crushed him in mainland India.

[thebhargavnageshvar]

Porus(Purushotthaman)won the battle 😢😢

[MadrasSanskritCollege]

It was only the Greeks who reported that Alexander won the battle of Hydaspes. Indians have not even bothered to take account of it. More like a flea bite. Alexander was wounded and defeated and ran back to his homeland but died in the way.

Fact to share: Alexander general Seleucus Nicator 303bc after many years attacked same way but this time he had to face Chandragupta, which is larger empire but failed & proposed
Seleucus gave his daughter Helena to Chandragupta he gave 500 war elephants in return, seleucus used that elephants in other battles.

Greek historians:-alexander the great
Indian historians:- Alexander who ?

[ananyatyagi]

Just a curiosity, the only evidence of the battle of Hydaspes is found in Greek scriptures. Considering Indians have a wide history of keeping written records... It's just too weird. Also it is said that Alexander left Porus alive despite winning and returned back home. Which is also super weird considering his left his home land only to win India after hearing of its riches. The man who never left his opponent alive suddenly decided to leave an Indian king alive and return. Another thing is that the habit of leaving the opponent king alive even after winning the war is something that Indian rulers did. A prime example is that Mohammad Gohri was pardoned many times even when he lost the war. This begs the question, did Alexander really win or King Porus did and it's considered such a minor event that no history exists of that battle in India. Whereas it is quite famous in Greece.

Imagine if he had to face the Mauryan Empire

“Although I won that battle I decided to retreat and die in Babylon” - Alexander

[azee]

Puru won the war and that's why Alexander was left alive and he realized that he had reached his limit so he left Purus kingdom dejected and mostly killed by his generals. If he had come a little he would have been slaughtered by Emperor Chandraguputa.

[jaoatarraz]

"The people of gangaridae are coming with 20000 elephants, 50000 horses and soldiers. Runnn.." - the message alexander received from his intelligence.

[apoorvparikh]

truth is Alexander lost that battle seeing elephant lords and kings of India king porush spared his life in return he died wounded in battle

[Emperor]

Alexander lost the battle and died while running away from the battlefield.

[anubhavbhrigu]

He what we write is mythology and not recognized and what westerners write is true and history... this needs to change and we need to dig into aur actual history and not something thats written by the mugals and the British....

[mihika_sehgal]

Actually, after alexander's mission to conquer the world; he conquered some parts of egypt and west asia. When he wanted to march further eastwards; his soldiers refused as they were afraid of the Indian ruler's army

[Fallenflex]

If Bro Got To See CHH. Shivaji Maharaj his troops wouldn't had a chances to run even the name of shivaji raje was enough 🚩😅
Edit :- { some Children Are Fighting In Reply Section That Alexander Is Great Then Let Me Tell You He Didn't Conquered Even 1/4th of India He Was Fighting With Weak Countries And If You Wanna Say He Conquered 3.5 Of Earth Therefore He Is Great Then You Never Heard Abou Samrat Vikramaditya 😂🔥

[SoulFrmTitanic]

*King Porus actually won the battle, and this has been so beautifully recreated by Europeans by writing Alexander as a winner* it's That simple 🙃

[pratyakshabhushan]

The truth is that Alexander the Great won the battle, also he won all known world during that time 😎

[jacobsaunders]

Lot of Indian guys like to claim that Alexander couldn’t beat the Indian empire, fact is Alexander’s soldiers were already homesick and battle weary by the time they reached India and they still managed to succeed in defeating one dynasty, I don’t believe there was an army on earth capable of defeating the Macedonians at this time (much like genghis khans forces in his time).

[sicmesicme]

Alexander the Great finally got rested by an Indian arrow. It's chronicled he was wounded in the battle that he won. The wound didn't heal. He died on his back.

[prashanttiwari]

Actually dhananand was a weak king but his generals were wise and loyal and he did had a formidable army
