Battle Of Adys(255 BC)৷Carthage⚔️Rome৷First Punic War৷Total War Historical Battle

The Battle of Adys, which took place in late 255 BC during the First Punic War, involved a Carthaginian army led by Bostar, Hamilcar, and Hasdrubal, and a Roman army commanded by Marcus Atilius Regulus. Earlier in the year, the Roman navy had gained naval superiority and launched an invasion of Carthaginian territory in modern-day Tunisia. After achieving success in their campaign and returning to Sicily, the Roman fleet left Regulus with 15,500 men to hold their position in Africa for the winter. Instead of maintaining a defensive stance, Regulus decided to march towards Carthage, the Carthaginian capital. The Carthaginian army positioned itself on a rocky hill near Adys (modern Uthina), where Regulus was besieging a town. Regulus ordered his forces to conduct a night march and launch simultaneous attacks on the Carthaginians' fortified hilltop camp at dawn. One part of the Roman force was repulsed and pursued down the hill, but the other part charged the pursuing Carthaginians from behind, routing them. This caused panic among the remaining Carthaginians in the camp, who fled. Following their victory, the Romans advanced and captured Tunis, which was only 16 kilometers (10 miles) from Carthage. The Carthaginians, feeling hopeless, sought peace. However, the terms offered by Regulus were so harsh that Carthage chose to continue the fight.
