But the real power of Darius' army was positioned on the flanks. More than 30,000 fine cavalrymen from various Persian satrapies posed a serious threat, especially on such a wide and level battlefield.
Darius also had a few hundred Indian scythed chariots and even fifteen elephants, To achieve a flanking advantage. Opponent team would have plan in their mind. first distract it. the Macedonian king started to move his line right, but Darius immediately countered by stretching his left flank and matched the opponent's movement. Darius had the battlefield leveled and cleared off any obstacles for more effective chariot use, which is why he wanted to prevent the Macedonians from leaving the prepared ground. Persian cavalry moved out and attacked Alexander's far right. But, this was bait. Doing so exposed Darius’s own centre. Alexander had waited for such an opportunity, he swiftly moved Companion cavalry supported by the remaining units of his flank and struck the Persian centre, right where Darius' exposed royal guard stood.
