Placentia (Italy) (search for this): book 2, chapter 36
The conflict was terminated
by the flight of the vanquished, who carried off what boats were left. Then
they cried out for the execution of Macer. He had been wounded by a javelin
thrown from a distance, and the soldiers had made a rush upon him with drawn
swords, when he was saved by the interference of the tribunes and
centurions. Soon after Vestricius Spurinna, having received orders to that
effect from Otho, joined with his cohorts, leaving but a moderate force in
garrison at Placentia. After this Otho sent Flavius
Sabinus, consul elect, to take the command of the troops which had been
under Macer; the soldiers were delighted by this change of generals, while
the generals were led by these continual outbreaks to regard with disgust so
hateful a service.
