Ea mora in spem adductus Aulus, quem pro praetore in castris relictum supra diximus, aut conficiundi belli aut terrore exercitus ab rege pecuniae capiundae, milites mense Ianuario ex hibernis in expeditionem evocat, magnisque itineribus hieme aspera pervenit ad oppidum Suthul, ubi regis thesauri erant.
Because of the delay, Aulus, who, as I stated above, had been left as commander in the camp in place of the consul, came to hope for either finishing the war or obtaining a bribe from the king because of the fear the army inspired in him. He, therefore, called up his soldiers in the month of January from their winter quarters for active duty in the field, and by forced marches, in spite of the severity of the winter, reached the town of Suthul, where the kings treasury was located.
