Menes Vs Perseus (Part-1)

Menes bringing in Alexander's age was a genius move on his part, as given the young man's achievements, the other leaders were eager not to fall behind.

And hence, when the usually aggressive Menes suggested this risky, bold option, the other military leaders were pressured by their peers to ultimately choose it.

So then the question rose, 'How to attack?'

And Menes seemed to have even found that, a way to cross the river relatively safely.

So he laid out this plan to his commanders, "The Tibians will stick close to the river as they need a large supply of fresh water, just as us."

"So I propose sending our scouts forward to find a relatively shallow part of the river."

"Once we find it, we will camp somewhere close to it."

"And then we will wait for the enemy to get ahead of the spot so that we can cross it."

"And attack their rear!" This last sentence was said not by Menes but by Heliptos, whose enthusiastic interjection clearly expressed his thoughts about the proposal.
