The Battle of Walaja

The Battle of Walaja was particularly fascinating, and to anyone like myself who was a big fan of Hannibal and the Battle of Canee, well, this one is going to be one to remember. This battle didn't end Khalid's winning streak, in fact, he pushed the Persians back again and again until he arrived at the city of Faraz in December of 633. And so you had a situation where a smaller army was able to completely encircle a bigger army and then annihilate it.
