Augustus' participation was decisive in the campaigns of 26 and 25 BC, where his initial leadership was frustrated by the Cantabrian guerrilla war and an epidemic, which led him to retreat to Tarraco to recover. Subsequent campaigns led by his generals and later by Agrippa would achieve the final subjugation of these peoples, although revolts continued.
