Can you think of military reasons for the severe treatment of Tyrian survivors?
Answers
Explanation:
Alexander did not want to waste time on fighting with opponents.
He wanted to just attack, let the opponents surrender, and win quickly.
Since he lost many soldiers, wasted a lot of time and spent a lot of money during the attack on Tyre, he severely tortured Tyrian survivors to let people know that surrender is better for his opponents than resisting his attack.
By torturing them, he wanted to set an example for his future opponents.
