Brutus and Cassius met to join their armies at Saris, in western Turkey. They had levied 19 legions. Then they crossed into Macedon (northern and north-eastern Greece) and encamped near Philippi.
Brutus had levied his troops in Greece and Cassius in the Roman province of Asia, in western Turkey. By 43 BC Cassius had gathered 12 legions and was ready to take on Publicus Cornelius Dolabella, the governor of Syria and a supporter of Marc Antony (who at that time was the leader of the Caesarians, the supporters of Caesar) whom he defeated at Laodicea (modern Latakia in Syria).The senate, which had pitted itself against Marc Antony, made Cassius governor of Syria. Cassius then wanted to march on Egypt. However, with the formation of the Second triumvirate, Brutus asked him for help. Cassius turned west and reached Smyrna, on the west coast of Turkey with most of his forces. Before meeting up at Saris, Cassius and Brutus attacked the allies of the Second Triumvirate in the east. Cassius sacked the Greek island Rhodes. Brutus sacked Lycia, in western Turkey.

Octavian and Marc Antony avenged Caesar's death at the battle of Philippi, where they defeated the armies of Brutus and Cassius. Brutus and Cassius both committed suicide after their loss.
the treacherous plan he will carry out against Cassius at Philippi
Although many would claim that the clamatic scene is when the titale character gets knifed, my personal opinion is that it comes much later. Julius Caesar is actually much more about Brutus; some critics have even suggested that Brutus was an early version of Hamlet. In any case, the play deals largely with Brutus's downfall. His part in the regicide is inspired by a desire to help his people avoid tyranny, and yet after Caesar's death, he is driven out of Rome and the very people he sought to help want his blood. In addition, he must cope with the guilt he feels at killing his friend. He must also try to stick with Cassius, despite the fact that he now sees the manipulation Cassius has used upon him, because alone the two armies will definitely fall. So in my opinion, the climax comes with Brutus 'honorable' death at the end of the play, when he takes the only course he can see remaining out of his predicament.
Both committed suicide after the battle(s) of Philippi. Cassius, upon seeing that he had been defeated in battle by Antony, asked his slave Pindarus to slay him. Brutus committed suicide not long after (the length of time depends on whether you are talking about actual history or the events of the shakespeare play) when his armies were similarly defeated.
because
Marcus Antony wanted revenge against Marcus Brutus and Cassius for killing Julius Caesar, so he, Octavius Caesar, and Lepidus decide to send their armies to attack the armies of Brutus and Cassius in the second half of the play.
Octavian and Marc Antony avenged Caesar's death at the battle of Philippi, where they defeated the armies of Brutus and Cassius. Brutus and Cassius both committed suicide after their loss.
So they will not argue in front of their armies
Brutus killed himself after the final battle because it was the honorable thing for a defeated Roman commander to do. People seem to forget that Brutus and Cassius were leaders of armies, they were generals at the time of their defeat.

Yes, but not immediately. Rome was in turmoil after Caesar murder and Antony and the Senate came to a loose compromise which rather rewarded the assassins but kept Caesar's acts in force as law. Then Octavian came on the scene and after a bumpy relationship with Marc Antony, they joined forces in a war of vengeance against Caesar's killers. Eventually, Antony and Octavian had a war for supremacy, which was a civil war in all but name. It was thirteen years after Caesar's death that this last war took place.
Brutus and Cassius delivered speech to convince the roman mob and give proper reasons for Caesar's death. Then Mark Antony delivered his funeral speech where he succeeded to influence the mindset of the fickle-minded mob in his favour. They began considering Julius Caesar to be the noblest man in Rome. They ran into rage against the conspirators. Brutus and Cassius were driven out of the Gates of Rome and Cinna the poet was killed when the mob punished him for a matching name with Cinna the Conspirator. The armies of 'Brutus and Cassius' and 'Antony and Octabius' geared to fight each other.
