Topic: Hasdrubal Barca



  
 PERSONNAGES DE L'ÉPOQUE GB
Hasdrubal is known for his political opposition to the Carthaginian aristocracy and for the unusually wide support that he enjoyed from the city's ordinary citizens.
Sophonisba had been used by her father as a political pawn in his attempts to win the support of the Numidian chieftains, Masinissa and Syphax.
He arrived in 210 and in a daring attack seized the key Carthaginian base at New Carthage (modern-day Cartagena).

 The History of Rome, Vol. III
Before he had received definite tidings of this defeat, Hasdrubal had crossed the Ebro with 8000 infantry and 1000 cavalry, hoping to encounter the Romans as soon as they landed, but after hearing of the disaster at Cissis and the capture of the camp, he turned his route to the sea.
The enemy lost 6000; 2000, including those who were guarding the camp, were made prisoners; the camp itself was carried and the general with some of his chiefs was taken; Cissis, a town near the camp, was successfully attacked.
There I should have had my brother to share my plans and dangers; I should have had Hasdrubal rather than Hannibal as my foe, and undoubtedly a less serious war on my hands.

 Hasdrubal
The Romans felt offended by what they considered to be a violation of the treaty, and demanded that the Carthaginian government would hand over the man who they thought was responsible.
Unfortunately, the troops could not be used in Iberia either.
However, Hasdrubal was unable to use his victory.

The son-in-law of Hamilcar Barca, who followed the latter in his campaign against the governing aristocracy at Carthage at the close of the First Punic War, and in his subsequent career of conquest in Spain.

 Hannibal Barca: Biography and Much More From Answers.com
Although knowledge of him is based primarily on the reports of his enemies, Hannibal appears to have been both just and merciful.
Hannibal Barca and the Punic Wars  ( http://www.barca.fsnet.co.uk/)
From his father, Hamilcar Barca, the defender of Sicily in the First Punic War (see Punic Wars), he learned to hate Rome.
http://www.answers.com/topic/hannibal-barca

  
 Biographies: Hannibal Barca :: 0 A.D. :: Wildfire Games
In 221 B.C. Hasdrubal was assassinated and the Carthaginian army immediately declared the 26 year-old Hannibal as their commander-in-chief, the Carthaginian government soon confirmed his position and Hannibal set out to do things his way in Iberia.
In 229 B.C. Hamilcar died in battle with the Iberians, he chose his son-in-law, Hasdrubal the Fair as his successor.
From Capua Hannibal dispatched his brother Mago Barca to Carthage with news of his victories and hundreds of gold rings as proof of it.
http://www.wildfiregames.com/0ad/page.php?p=7464

  
 Spain - 211 BC
Gnaeus had well over double Hasdrubal Barca's numbers, while Publius hoped to confront Mago's 10,000 troops with his 25,000.
Though heavily outnumbered, Hasdrubal Barca held his ground.
Having a number of Celt-Iberians in his own army, it was a simple matter for Hasdrubal to arrange a series of secret meetings with the mercenary leaders.

 LA GUERRE D'ESPAGNE
Nero, the consul who had been told to detain Hannibal, leaving a thin line of troops behind him to this end, had hastened to join the other consul Livius and together they were to bar the way of Hasdrubal II.
But Hasdrubal II lost time in besieging Plaisance and all the messages he sent to his elder brother in Ombria to fix a meeting place, were intercepted.
Back at camp, Nero had the head of Hasdrubal thrown in front of the Carthaginian sentry posts.

 Scipio Africanus - A Military Biographical Sketch
S.A. was tempted to pursue the fleeing Hasdrubal, since a junction of the Barca brothers in Italy would surely have spelled catastrophe, with so many of Rome's crack troops in Spain.
Hannibal learned of his brother's death when Hasdrubal's head was thrown into his camp.
Hasdrubal abandoned his doomed skirmishers and moved off with his elephants, war booty, funds and elephants.

 Hasdrubal, son of Gesco
There are reports that Hasdrubal was convicted and forced to commit suicide, but they are unreliable.
His father Gesco had been a war hero of the First Punic War (264-241), in which the Carthaginians had lost Sicily.
Unexpectedly, the Roman commander Publius Cornelius Scipio, the son of the man who had been killed in 211, captured the Carthaginian capital in Iberia, New Carthage (modern Cartagena).

After some time, Hannibal's troops had become like a state without land, drifting around, always looking for new alliances and weak points in the Roman defence, never finding it.
Until 218 he was second to his brother in Spain, but when this set out for his campaign towards Italy, Hasdrubal became commander in chief.
His other son, HYPERLINK "hasdrub2.htm"Hasdrubal Barca, also became a noted general.

 Rome vs. Carthage: The Day the World Trembled
He had no idea whether Hannibal had been beaten or not, but he knew both consuls faced him.
The ancient historians say he was deliberately led astray by his guides, but this is absurd.
It has been claimed that he groaned aloud that he recognized his country's destiny in Hasdrubal's lifeless countenance.

 The Punic Wars
Indeed, there had been fighting in Spain ever since Hannibal left there, and the campaigns were tough and hard- fought.
But Hasdrubal was forced to battle at the Metaurus River, and the Romans won a resounding victory there.
He fought his way down the Italian peninsula.

 Special Project 1: Tangent Deliverable
Hasdrubal survived and retreated with the remains of his army unopposed, Scipio having decided that to follow would have been far to risky.
Hannibal left Spain under command of his brother Hasdrubal Gisco (Not to be confused with his dead brother in law, Hasdrubal), and marched his army across the Ebro and into southern Gaul.
Hasdrubal met up with Mago, another of Hannibal's brothers, and took command of his army, which he marched through the Pyrenees and into Gaul in preparation for an attack on Italy.

 Hamilcar Barca
His three sons, Hannibal, Hasdrubal Barca, and Mago Barca, inherited his hatred of Rome.
Despite a long-running feud with his political rival Hanno the Great, Hamilcar masterminded the Barcid domination of Carthaginian foreign policy through a marriage alliance with Hasdrubal and successes in Africa and Spain.
He then campaigned in Spain until his death, substantially enlarging and enriching the Carthaginian Empire.

Hasdrubal was murdered by a slave whose master he had put to death.
He succeeded to the command of the Carthaginian forces in Spain on the death of his father-in-law Hamilcar Barca 229
Hasdrubal founded Carthago Nova (New Carthage, modern Cartagena), and in 226 concluded with Rome a treaty which established the River Iberus (Ebro) as the boundary between Roman (in the north) and Carthaginian (in the south) spheres of influence in Spain.

 Amontillado
Hasdrubal Barca ; it seems appropriate that any piece that includes the Barc or the BarcRider in its composition should be named after some member of the Barca family.
The land where Hamilcar and Hasdrubal and Hannibal met so many successes is today the land where Amontillado is made.
Notice that the BarcRider part of the Hasdrubal is not a Halfling.

 Ancient Rome - Punic Wars
Eventually, however, under the leadership of Hamilcar Barca, his son Hannibal, and his son-in-law Hasdrubal, Carthage acquired a new base in Spain, whence they could renew the war against Rome.
Hasdrubal marched down the peninsula to join Hannibal for an assault on Rome.
In the years after the First Punic War, Rome wrested Corsica and Sardinia from Carthage and forced Carthaginians to pay an even greater indemnity than the payment exacted immediately following the war.

 HISTORY'S BATTLES - ANIMATED
This is the most famous of the three wars due, primarily, to the exploits of Hannibal Barca of Carthage.
His attempt to withdraw from the Romans is thwarted by his inability to find a crossing point on the Metaurus River.
After capturing New Carthage and defeating Hasdrubal Barca at Baecula, the only remaining Carthaginian force left is Hasdrubal Gisgo.

 Phoenicia, Phoenician Wars
According to Polybius and Livy, the main Latin sources for his life, Hannibal was taken to Spain by his father and at an early age was made to swear eternal hostility to Rome.
Leaving his brother Hasdrubal in command of a considerable army for the defense of Spain and North Africa, he crossed the Ebro in April or May of 218 and marched into the Pyrenees (the Romans, shortly before they heard of this, decided on war).
His last hope of making a recovery in central Italy thus dashed, Hannibal concentrated his forces in Bruttium, where with the help of his remaining allies he was able to resist Roman pressure for four more years.
