Answer: Caesar chose to go ahead

Explanation: The statement "Caesar chose to go ahead" is accurate based on the given information. The other statements are not supported by the passage. There is no mention of Caesar being passionate about war, enjoying the thrill of battle, or being motivated solely by his desire to become a ruler. Similarly, there is no indication that Caesar was concerned about his followers' perceptions or that he was in a hurry to cross the border.
