Syst\u00e9mov\u011b a politicky byl \u0158\u00edm na v\u00e1lku dob\u0159e p\u0159ipraven. Struktura veden\u00ed byla pevn\u011b dan\u00e1.

Voj\u00e1ci absolvovali kvalitn\u00ed v\u00fdcvik a na boji\u0161ti byli schopni reagovat rychle a bojovat pod ohromn\u00fdm tlakem. \u0158\u00edm do v\u00e1lky vstupoval pom\u011brn\u011b jist\u011b a nekompromisn\u011b, co\u017e m\u016f\u017eeme usuzovat z toho, jak\u00fdm zp\u016fsobem se vypo\u0159\u00e1dal se situac\u00ed na za\u010d\u00e1tku v\u00e1lky v Messan\u011b.<\/p>\n

P\u0159\u00edkladem, kdy \u0159\u00edmsk\u00e1 arm\u00e1da naprosto selhala, byla bitva o Tunis, ve kter\u00e9 hrdinn\u00fd spartsk\u00fd bojovn\u00edk Xanthippus vedl nov\u011b sestavenou a l\u00e9pe vycvi\u010denou kartaginskou arm\u00e1du.

Ob\u011b strany p\u0159i\u0161ly o sv\u00e9 flotily, ale v\u00e1lka potrv\u00e1 je\u0161t\u011b dlouh\u00e1 l\u00e9ta, a proto ani jedna strana nezah\u00e1lela a pustily se do v\u00fdstavby nov\u00fdch flotil. Kartaginci se sv\u00fdmi 200 lod\u011bmi op\u011bt vyrazili na Sic\u00edlii dob\u00fdt zp\u011bt ztracen\u00e1 \u00fazem\u00ed a flotilou podporovat pozemn\u00ed vojsko. \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 naopak se sv\u00fdmi 250 nov\u00fdmi lod\u011bmi odpluli op\u011bt k pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed severn\u00ed Afriky, a ani\u017e by zaznamenali jak\u00fdkoliv \u00fasp\u011bch, poda\u0159ilo se jim uv\u00edznout na m\u011bl\u010din\u011b.<\/p>\n

V z\u00e1chvatu paniky a ze strachu, \u017ee je objev\u00ed kartaginsk\u00e9 lod\u011b, ze sv\u00fdch lod\u00ed vyh\u00e1zeli ve\u0161ker\u00e9 z\u00e1soby a v\u0161echny p\u0159edm\u011bty, kter\u00e9 nebyly nutn\u00e9 ke zp\u00e1te\u010dn\u00ed cest\u011b na Sic\u00edlii. Po odleh\u010den\u00ed se jim poda\u0159ilo dostat lod\u011b op\u011bt na vodu a odpluli zp\u011bt k Sic\u00edlii, ale na cest\u011b si je op\u011bt na\u0161la bou\u0159e a ztratili dal\u0161\u00edch 150 a zbytek lod\u00ed byl t\u011b\u017ece po\u0161kozen. To u\u017e na \u0158\u00edmany bylo za posledn\u00ed dobu trochu moc a na chv\u00edli se vzdali n\u00e1kladn\u00e9 v\u00fdstavby dal\u0161\u00ed flotily. Tato pauza dala Kart\u00e1gu \u010das pln\u011b obnovit jejich vlastn\u00ed n\u00e1mo\u0159n\u00ed s\u00edly a boj o Sic\u00edlii se rozho\u0159el na novo.<\/p>\n

V pozemn\u00edch operac\u00edch se \u0158\u00edman\u016fm na Sic\u00edlii da\u0159\u00ed t\u00e9m\u011b\u0159 skv\u011ble, dob\u00fdvaj\u00ed velk\u00e9 m\u011bsto Panormus a zatla\u010duj\u00ed Kartagince do z\u00e1padn\u00edch c\u00edp\u016f ostrova, kde Kartaginc\u016fm zb\u00fdvaj\u00ed pouze dv\u011b obranyschopn\u00e1 m\u011bsta a t\u011bmi byly Drepana a Lilybaeum. \u0158\u00edman\u016fm ale pom\u011brn\u011b brzy dojde, \u017ee bez siln\u00e9 n\u00e1mo\u0159n\u00ed flotily v\u00e1lku nevyhraj\u00ed, a tak op\u011bt posiluj\u00ed zbytky sv\u00e9 flotily a vyr\u00e1\u017e\u00ed k obl\u00e9han\u00e9mu m\u011bstu Lilybaeum.<\/p>\n

Obl\u00e9h\u00e1n\u00ed Lilybaea uv\u00edzlo na mrtv\u00e9m bod\u011b a jeden z konzul\u016f vyrazil k p\u0159ekvapiv\u00e9mu \u00fatoku na Drepanu. Bohu\u017eel pro \u0158\u00edmany narazili v Drepan\u011b na velmi chytr\u00e9ho kartaginsk\u00e9ho velitele, kter\u00fd dok\u00e1zal nafingovat fale\u0161n\u00fd \u00faprk kartaginsk\u00fdch lod\u00ed. Konzul jist\u00fd si svou siln\u011bj\u0161\u00ed pozic\u00ed vyrazil se svou flotilou do opu\u0161t\u011bn\u00e9ho p\u0159\u00edstavu.<\/p>\n

Jakmile se to stalo, kartaginsk\u00e9 lod\u011b se obr\u00e1tily a vyrazily p\u0159\u00edmo proti \u0159\u00edmsk\u00fdm lod\u00edm. \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 v panice a pon\u011bkud neobratn\u011b vyjeli se sv\u00fdmi lod\u011bmi z p\u0159\u00edstavu, ale bylo ji\u017e p\u0159\u00edli\u0161 pozd\u011b.

Dokonal\u00e9 podm\u00ednky pro jejich man\u00e9vrovac\u00ed taktiku. T\u00e9m\u011b\u0159 stovka lod\u00ed z \u0159\u00edmsk\u00e9 flotily byla op\u011bt zni\u010dena nebo uko\u0159ist\u011bna.<\/p>\n

A\u010d se to zd\u00e1 neuv\u011b\u0159iteln\u00e9 po tolika ztr\u00e1t\u00e1ch, tvrdohlav\u00ed \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 op\u011bt d\u00e1vaj\u00ed dohromady tentokr\u00e1t men\u0161\u00ed flotilu z p\u0159e\u017eiv\u0161\u00edch v\u00e1le\u010dn\u00fdch lod\u00ed a vyplouvaj\u00ed k obl\u00e9han\u00e9mu Lilybaeu, aby dovezli suroviny, z\u00e1soby, v\u00fdstroj a v\u00fdzbroj pro \u0159\u00edmskou arm\u00e1du. Ze Syrakus vyplulo 120 v\u00e1le\u010dn\u00fdch lod\u00ed a na 800 men\u0161\u00edch z\u00e1sobovac\u00edch a obchodn\u00edch plavidel. Flotila byla rozd\u011blena z logistick\u00fdch d\u016fvod\u016f na dv\u011b \u010d\u00e1sti, p\u0159i\u010dem\u017e prvn\u00ed flotila vyrazila k Lilybaeu o n\u011bkolik dn\u00ed d\u0159\u00edve ne\u017e druh\u00e1.<\/p>\n

Kartaginci se o t\u00e9to v\u00fdprav\u011b dozv\u011bd\u011bli a proti flotile vyslali dal\u0161\u00edho ost\u0159\u00edlen\u00e9ho velitele. Ten slab\u011b chr\u00e1n\u011bnou prvn\u00ed \u010d\u00e1st flotily donutil zakotvit na pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed. Obrana na pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed byla pom\u011brn\u011b siln\u00e1 a podporovan\u00e1 artil\u00e9ri\u00ed, a tak se kartaginsk\u00fd velitel rozhodl ne\u00fato\u010dit a \u010dekal a\u017e \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 zase vypluj\u00ed.<\/p>\n

Mezit\u00edm se v\u0161ak dozv\u011bd\u011bl o bl\u00ed\u017e\u00edc\u00ed se druh\u00e9 \u010d\u00e1sti \u0159\u00edmsk\u00e9 flotily a nedaleko prvn\u00edho p\u0159epadu vl\u00e1kal do pasti i druhou \u010d\u00e1st flotily. Vel\u00edc\u00ed konzul zvolil stejnou strategii jako prvn\u00ed \u010d\u00e1st flotily a tak\u00e9 se sv\u00fdmi lod\u011bmi zakotvil u pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed a rozm\u00edstil obranu a artil\u00e9rii. Kartaginsk\u00e9 lod\u011b se op\u011bt st\u00e1hly d\u00e1le od pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed a sledovaly tentokr\u00e1t ob\u011b flotily, kter\u00e9 dr\u017eely v\u00a0\u0161achu.<\/p>\n

B\u011bhem tohoto vy\u010dk\u00e1v\u00e1n\u00ed u ji\u017en\u00edho pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed Sic\u00edlie se za\u010dalo m\u011bnit po\u010das\u00ed a zku\u0161en\u00ed sta\u0159\u00ed n\u00e1mo\u0159n\u00edci z kartaginsk\u00e9 flotily p\u0159esv\u011bd\u010dili sv\u00e9ho velitele, \u017ee se bl\u00ed\u017e\u00ed bou\u0159e a aby okam\u017eit\u011b odpluli, dokud je \u010das.

Ne\u017e v\u0161ak sta\u010dily vyplout i \u0159\u00edmsk\u00e9 lod\u011b, p\u0159ihnala se tak ohromn\u00e1 bou\u0159e, \u017ee je v\u0161echny rozmetala na kusy. Cel\u00e1 z\u00e1sobovac\u00ed flotila byla tot\u00e1ln\u011b zni\u010den\u00e1.

V\u00e1lka se t\u00e1hla u\u017e velmi dlouhou dobu, p\u0159es 23 let. \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 za posledn\u00ed roky ztratily vy\u0161\u0161\u00ed stovky v\u00e1le\u010dn\u00fdch lod\u00ed a nes\u010detn\u00fd po\u010det z\u00e1sobovac\u00edch plavidel. N\u00e1mo\u0159n\u00ed s\u00edly padly na kolena a situace na Sic\u00edlii tak\u00e9 nebyla \u00fapln\u011b nejlep\u0161\u00ed.

Pro \u0158\u00edmany to ale nebyl konec. Odm\u00edtali si p\u0159ipustit, \u017ee by mohli v\u00e1lku prohr\u00e1t, i p\u0159esto\u017ee st\u00e1tn\u00ed pokladnice byly t\u00e9m\u011b\u0159 na nule.

S\u00a0novou flotilou se \u0158\u00edman\u00e9 vypravili do st\u00e1le obl\u00e9han\u00e9ho Lilybaea a zjistili, \u017ee cel\u00e1 kartaginsk\u00e1 flotila odplula zp\u011bt do Kart\u00e1ga pro z\u00e1soby.

Po por\u00e1\u017ece u Aegatsk\u00fdch ostrov\u016f byli Kartaginci ve v\u0161ech ohledech na dn\u011b.

\u0158\u00edman\u00e9 naopak m\u011bli \u00fapln\u011b v\u0161e, co pot\u0159ebovali. Velkou flotilu, obrovsk\u00e9 pozemn\u00ed vojsko a ovl\u00e1dali 95 % \u00fazem\u00ed na Sic\u00edlii.

\u0158\u00edm tedy projevil svoji dominanci jak na sou\u0161i, tak na mo\u0159i. Ov\u0161em jejich \u00fasp\u011bch tak\u00e9 nebyl zadarmo.
