Khosrau I
In 572, Vardan III Mamikonian revolted against the "marzban" Chihor-Vishnasp and killed him. Khosrau I then sent Golon Mihran at the head of an army of twenty thousand men to recapture Armenia, but the latter was defeated in Taron by Vardan Mamikonian, who captured his war elephants as war booty. After his defeat, he advanced towards Caucasian Iberia, where he was once again defeated.
