C. Julius Caesar, Commentaries on the Civil War (ed. William Duncan), CAESAR'S COMMENTARIES of THE CIVIL WAR. , chapter 5 (search)
To subsist this mighty army, he had taken care to amass vast quantities of
corn from Thessaly, Asia, Egypt, Crete, Cyrene, and other countries; resolving to
quarter his troops, during the winter, at Dyrrhachium, Apollonia, and the other maritime
towns, to prevent Caesar's passing the sea; for which purpose, he ordered
his fleet to cruise perpetually about the coasts. Young Pompey commanded the
Egyptian squadron ; D. Lalius and C. Triarius the Asiatic; C. Cassius the
Syrian; C. Marcellus and C. Coponius the Rhodian; Scribonius Libo and M.
Octavius the Liburnian and Achaian: but the chief authority was vested in M.
Bibulus, who was admiral of the whole, and gave his orders accordingly.

The king's ministers, who had the care of the government during his
minority, being informed of this, either out of fear, as they afterwards
pretended, lest Pompey should debauch the army, and thereby render himself

Achillas, captain of the king's guards, a man of singular boldness, and to
murder him. They accosted him with an air of frankness, especially
Septimius, who had served under him as a centurion in the war with the
pirates; and inviting him into the boat, treacherously slew him. L. Lentulus
was likewise seized by the king's c

Caesar, after a short stay in Asia, hearing that Pompey had been seen at Cyprus, and thence conjecturing that he
was for Egypt, because of the interest he had in
that kingdom, and the advantages it would afford him, left Rhodes, with a convoy of ten Rhodian
galleys, and a few others from Asia, having on board two legions, one of
which he ordered to follow him from Thessaly, the other detached from Fufius's
army in Achaia; and eight hundred horse. In these
legions were no more than three thousand two hundred men: the rest, fatigued
with the length of the march, or weakened with wounds, had not been able to
follow him. But Caesar depending on the reputation of his former exploits,
scrupled not to trust the safety of his person to a feeble escort,
