In a naval battle, Hannibal tricks the troops from Pergamum into revealing the location of their king, Eumenes, and his ship. He then defeats them with an unusual weapon. Hannibal1, nautas tali modo hortatus, iussit classem2 in proelium navigare. sed priusquam signum pugnae daretur, Hannibal1, ut cognosceret quo loco Eumenes3 esset, tabellarium4 in scapha5 cum caduceo6 misit. qui, ubi ad naves hostium pervenit, epistulam ostendens, nuntiavit se regem quaerere et statim ad Eumenem3 ductus est. nam omnes crediderunt tabellarium4 epistulam de pace scriptam portare. tabellarius4, nave regis suis patefacta7, ad eundem locum, unde profectus erat, regressus est. at Eumenes3 nihil in aperta8 epistula invenit nisi quae ad eum deridendum9 pertinerent10. itaque statim proelium commisit11. in primo concursu12 Hannibal1 Bithyniis13 imperavit ut omnes navem Eumenis3 oppugnarent. rex, cum eorum impetum sustinere non posset, ad castra sua, quae in litore proximo erant, fugit.

But before the signal for battle could be given, Hannibal, to find out where Eumenes was, sent a courier in a skiff with a flag of truce. He, when he reached the enemy ships, showing the letter, announced that he was looking for the king and at once was led to Eumenes. For everyone believed that the courier was carrying a letter written about peace. The courier, when the king’s ship had been revealed to his own side, returned to the same place from where he had set out. But Eumenes found nothing in the letter when it had been opened except for things which were suitable for making fun of him. And so he joined battle at once. In the first clash Hannibal ordered the Bithynians all to attack Eumenes’ ship. Since the king could not withstand their attack, he fled to his camp which was on the nearest shore. However, the Bithynians when they were being overpowered by the remaining Pergamene ships, began to throw earthenware jars onto the enemy ships. At first the Pergamenes laughed but, after they caught sight of snakes coming out of the jars, they were so frightened that they also fled. In this way Hannibal with very clever plans defeated the force of the Pergamenes.
