Overview
Hannibal adapted to his situation in Italy by using spies to learn about Roman alliances. He released Italian captives to gain support, attempted to negotiate with Rome through released prisoners, but was rejected. He then focused on gaining control in southern Italy, starting with Capua, and faced resistance in Nuceria, which he besieged. Despite his efforts, Rome refused to negotiate, showcasing their determination.
