The Battle of the Trebia (or Trebbia) was the first major battle of the Second Punic War, fought between the Carthaginian forces of Hannibal and a Roman army under Sempronius Longus on 22 or 23 December 218 BC. It took place on the flood plain of the west bank of the lower Trebia River, not far from the settlement of Placentia (modern Piacenza), and resulted in a heavy defeat for the Roman army.
This is an cinematic battle done with ‪@parrythetrojan‬ and ‪@MedjayofFaiyum‬ This was an epic battle trying to create historically the events of this major battle. The soundtrack is from total war :)
I hope you enjoy this!
