1. CUM transitu Hasdrubalis, quantum in Italiam1 2 declinaverat belli, tantum levatae Hispaniae viderentur,renatum ibi subito par priori bellum est. [2] Hispanias ea tempestate sic habebant Romani Poenique: Hasdrubal Gisgonis filius ad Oceanum penitus Gadesque concesserat; [3] nostri maris ora omnisque ferme Hispania qua in orientem vergit Scipionis ac Romanae dicionis erat. [4] novus imperator Hanno in locum Barcini Hasdrubalis novo cum exercitu ex Africa transgressus Magonique iunctus, cum in Celtiberia, quae media inter duo maria est, brevi magnum hominum numerum armasset, [5?] Scipio adversus eum M. Silanum cum decem haud amplius3 milibus militum, equitibus quingentis misit. [6] Silanus quantis maximis potuit [p. 4] itineribusinpediebant autem et asperitates viarum4 et angustiae saltibus crebris, ut pleraque Hispaniae sunt, inclusae—, tamen non solum nuntios sed etiam famam adventus sui praegressus, ducibus indidem ex Celtiberia transfugis ad hostem pervenit. [7] eisdem auctoribus conpertum est, cum decem circiter milia ab hoste abessent, bina castra circa viam qua irent esse; laeva Celtiberos, novum exercitum, supra novem milia hominum, dextra Punica tenere castra. [8] ea stationibus, vigiliis, omni iusta militari custodia tuta et firma esse; illa altera soluta neglectaque, ut barbarorum et tironum et minus timentium, quod in sua terra essent.

[9] ea prius adgredienda ratus Silanus signa quam maxime ad laevam iubebat ferri, necunde ab stationibus Punicis conspiceretur; ipse praemissis speculatoribus citato agmine ad hostem pergit.
