In this episode, we dive into Scipio’s meticulously planned and breathtaking assault of Carthago Nova in 209 BC. Tracing his rapid ten-day march down the eastern coast of Iberia, with infantry, cavalry and fleet moving in perfect unison, before launching an exquisitely coordinated strike on the city. Blending deception, precision and raw ferocity to achieve the unthinkable, capturing the jewel of Carthage’s Spanish dominion in a single day. A stunning victory that Scipio immediately exploited through clever diplomacy to draw Iberian allies to Rome and begin dismantling Carthage’s power in Hispania.
