[5] Ἀλέξανδρος δὲ τεταραγμένους πρὸς τὰ βέλη ἰδὼν ὑπὸ σαλπίγγων ἐπέρα τὸν ποταμὸν αὐτὸς ἡγούμενος: εἵπετο δὲ αὐτῷ καὶ ἡ ἄλλη στρατιά. πρῶτον μὲν δὴ τοὺς τοξότας καὶ σφενδονήτας ἀποβιβάσας σφενδονᾶν τε καὶ ἐκτοξεύειν ἐκέλευσεν ἐς τοὺς Σκύθας, ὡς μὴ πελάζειν αὐτοὺς τῇ φάλαγγι τῶν πεζῶν ἐκβαινούσῃ, πρὶν τὴν ἵππον αὐτῷ διαβῆναι πᾶσαν.
