Hannibal and his Carthaginians were not able to break down the walls of Rome because they never got there. After the loss at Cannae, the Romans changed tactics by not meeting Hannibal in a direct battle, but by small harassing raids. As Hannibal's army was weakened, and no support was coming from Carthage, Hannibal was forced to retreat to the far southern part of Italy.

Hannibal Barca's war campaign?
Hannibal's objects were: 1. Fight the Romans on their home ground. 2. To detach Rome's Italian allies from which it drew its fighting manpower and material support.

In the first he succeeded for a decade and a half, but eventually Rome turned the tables on him by invading North Africa and threatening Carthage, and he was recalled from Italy to protect the city.

Hannibal the general?
Look to the related link below for additional information on the Carthaginian general that may answer your ambiguous question . Hannibal was a general in the army of Carthage and the terror of Rome during the Second Punic War. Although a brilliant commander and battle strategist, he was unable to take advantage of his battlefield victories to force Rome to surrender. He is best remembered for leading his troops, complete with a compliment of elephants, on an incredible march from Spain, across Europe, and surprised Rome by crossing the Alps. Though he defeated Rome in several brilliant battles, Rome's Fabian Plan prevented him from attaining an ultimate victory. Finally recalled to Carthage to protect it against Scipio's forces who were threatening the city itself, Hannibal lost the Battle of Zama, forcing Carthage to surrender. Eventually, Rome declared Hannibal to be a Public Enemy; so, he fled and assisted many of Rome's foes in their own wars with the expanding Republic. Finally, he was betrayed by an ally and took poison rather than be taken prisoner by Roman forces.
