After making these arrangements, he marches into the [country of the] Aedui, and recovers that state.
His rebus confectis in Aeduos proficiscitur; civitatem recipit.
To this place embassadors are sent by the Arveni, who promise that they will execute his commands. He demands a great number of hostages.
Eo legati ab Arvernis missi quae imperaret se facturos pollicentur. Imperat magnum numerum obsidum.
He sends the legions to winter-quarters; he restores about twenty thousand captives to the Aedui and Arverni;
Legiones in hiberna mittit. Captivorum circiter viginti milia Aeduis Arvernisque reddit.
he orders Titus Labienus to march into the [country of the] Sequani with two legions and the cavalry, and to him he attaches Marcus Sempronius Rutilus;
Titum Labienum duabus cum legionibus et equitatu in Sequanos proficisci iubet: huic Marcum Sempronium Rutilum attribuit.
he places Caius Fabius, and Lucius Minucius Basilus, with two legions in the country of the Remi, lest they should sustain any loss from the Bellovaci in their neighborhood.

He stations Quintus Tullius Cicero, and Publius Sulpicius among the Aedui at Cabillo and Matisco on the Saone, to procure supplies of corn. He himself determines to winter at Bibracte. A supplication of twenty-days is decreed by the senate at Rome, on learning these successes from Caesar's dispatches.
Quintum Tullium Ciceronem et Publium Sulpicium Cabilloni et Matiscone in Aeduis ad Ararim rei frumentariae causa collocat. Ipse Bibracte hiemare constituit. His litteris cognitis Romae dierum viginti supplicatio redditur.
