A body of Octavius's cavalry made an expedition to the coast of Bruttium,which Pompeius was ravaging,and Lucius either thought or pretended to think it had been sent against himself and Antony's children.Accordingly,he betook himself to the Antonian colonies to collect a body-guard,and accused Octavian to the soldiers as being treacherous to Antony.Octavian replied that everything was on a friendly and harmonious footing between himself and Antony,and that Lucius was trying to stir up a war between them for another reason,in that he was working against the triumvirate,by virtue of which the soldiers had a firm hold upon their colonies,and that the cavalry were now in Bruttium executing the triumvirate's orders. When the officers of the army learned these facts, they arbitrated between Lucius and Octavian at Teanum and brought them to an agreement on the following terms: That the consuls should exercise their office in the manner of the fathers and not be hindered by the triumvirs; that the land should be assigned only to those who fought at Philippi; that of the money derived from confiscated property, and of the value of that which was still to be sold, Antony's soldiers in Italy should have an equal share; that neither Antony nor Octavian should draw soldiers from Italy by conscription hereafter; that two of Antony's legions should serve with Octavian in the campaign against Pompeius; that the passes of the Alps should be opened to the forces sent by Octavian into Spain, and that Pollio should not further interfere with them; that Lucius should dispense with his body-guard and administer his office fearlessly. Such was the agreement which they made with each other through the influence of the officers of the army. Of these only the two last were carried into effect, Salvidienus crossing the Alps with him, but unwillingly.As the other conditions were not carried into effect, or were delayed, Lucius departed to Praeneste, saying that he was in fear of Octavian, who, by virtue of his office, had a guard, while he himself was unprotected. Fulvia went there to meet Lepidus, saying now that she had fears for her children.
