Discover the story of the Battle of Jaxartes (329 BC), one of Alexander the Great's most underrated and brilliant tactical masterpieces. This is the battle where Alexander faced the "unbeatable" Scythians, the legendary horse-archers of the steppe who had humiliated empires for centuries.
Trapped between a raging river and a massive nomadic horde, while his own empire was in flames behind him, a sick and exhausted Alexander devised a plan of pure genius. This deep-dive documentary explores how he turned a hopeless defensive situation into a devastating offensive trap. Witness one of the first recorded uses of siege artillery as a field weapon, a brilliant multi-stage river crossing under fire, and the perfectly executed "hammer and anvil" tactic that annihilated the Scythian army.
This is the story of how Alexander's mind, not just his army, defeated an enemy that no one else could conquer.
