    A bit on the poetic side?

    'This Hannibal…
    who did not descend into Italy by paying half his army, choose only his battlefield and only his right to fight.’

    I'm not totally sure about this?

    Would this line have something to do with a New Republic not entirely funding a certain Franco-Italian campaign?
