The Massacre of Cannae #shorts

The Massacre at Cannae, a pivotal battle in the Second Punic War (216 BCE), saw Hannibal's Carthaginian forces employ brilliant tactics. Encircling and annihilating a larger Roman army, Hannibal's double envelopment strategy led to the death of an estimated 50,000 Roman soldiers, making it one of history's bloodiest battles.
