This stretches the Carthaginian line and offers a tempting target for the main body of Roman infantry to attack, thus setting up a trap. The Battle of Cannae, 216 BCE Aufidus R.

Meanwhile the Carthaginian cavalry on the left has beaten the opposing Roman cavalry. While some of them continue to pursue the fleeing Roman cavalry, the rest swing around to hit the exposed rear of the Roman line, first driving the Roman skirmishers back into the ranks of the legions.

From this point on, it was just a massacre. The ensuing slaughter was probably the worst military defeat in Roman history as Roman soldiers were packed in so tightly they had no room to raise their arms to defend themselves.
