Artaxerxes collects a great army early in 345 BCE and marches against the Phoenician city of Sidon.

Mentor of Rhodes, who had helped betray Sidon, rises high in the king's favor and enters into a close understanding with the eunuch Bagoas, the king's favorite. (His name is the Greek form of an Old Persian name often used for eunuchs.)
