Valiant defeat
The embattled Indians break and flee. Having completed his crossing, Craterus marches his infantry phalanx and cavalry to Alexander’s aid and pursues the fleeing enemy troops. The Indians lose 20,000 infantry, 3,000 cavalry and all of their chariots. Macedonian losses are far lighter, including 240 horsemen and 80 footsoldiers. King Porus himself fights valiantly and retreats from the field only after he is wounded and his army has been defeated.
