Scipio Africanus – Part 10 (Scipio Takes Command in Hispania)


Listen Later

Into the chaos of Rome’s collapsing front in northeastern Hispania, Scipio arrives in the summer of 210 BC. We’ll follow along in the early months of his campaign as the young General masterfully uses psychology and religion to rebuild the morale of his shattered army, before imposing an intensive training regimen to restore their fighting edge. All the while, behind the scenes, Scipio establishes a far-reaching intelligence network, guiding his evolving plans and meticulous preparations for a bold, unexpected strike at the heart of Carthaginian power in Spain: the city of Carthago Nova.
