 The town of Iliturgi, which had gone over to the Romans, was attacked by three Carthaginian armies under Hasdrubal, Mago, and Hannibal, the son of Bomilcar.The Scipios forced their way through the three camps, brought corn (the town was in need for food) and encouraged the town to fight.The resultant battle was between 60,000 Carthaginians and 16,000 Romans.
