This man's soldiers once attached flaming torches to the horns of cattle and charged the beasts through a mountain pass to scare away defenders.
This man's soldiers once attached flaming torches to the horns of cattle and charged the beasts through a mountain pass to scare away defenders. Earlier in that campaign, this leader captured Saguntum and successfully ambushed foes in the fog at Lake Trasimene. This man's greatest victory came when he ordered the center of his line to give ground until he was able to (*) encircle and slaughter a force under the command of Varro and Paullus. That victory at the Battle of Cannae was short lived, and this man was defeated by Scipio Africanus at the Battle of Zama. For 10 points, name this general who marched an army over the Alps and into Italy during the Second Punic War, a Carthaginian leader.
