Summary

Description

Text (Chronicle of en:John Skylitzes):

English: "...The Emperor sent him to Constantinople to the Orphanotroph, after having promoted him to the rank of magister, and he, leaving Mosynopolis, went to Thessalonica. From there he crossed over and entered Bulgaria, captured Delyan and sent him to Thessalonica, while he himself went into the interior of the country, because Manuil Ivats had erected a wooden palisade at Prilep, intending to stop the imperial army from advan­cing and reaching the interior. The Emperor, however, arrived there at the speed of lightning, destroyed the palisade, put the detachment of Bulgarians to flight and captured Ivats..." (Macedonia - Documents And Materials, I., 19. (html))
Deutsch: "...Der Kaiser erhob ihn in den Magisterrang und schickte ihn darauf nach Konstantinopel zum Orphanotrophen, er selbst aber, von Mosynopolis aufbrechend, begab sich nach Thessalonike. Von dort drang er in Bulgarien ein, fing Deljan und schickte ihn nach Thessalonike, er selbst zog aber ins Innere des Landes. Denn Manuil Iwaz hatte bei Prilep eine hölzerne Barrikade errichtet, in dem Glauben, daß er das kaiserliche Heer daran hindern würde, vorzudringen und das Landesinnere zu erobern. Aber der Kaiser gelangte Blitzes Schnelle dorthin, zerstörte das hölzerne Hindernis, streute die Abteilung der Bulgaren und nahm Iwaz gefangen..." (Makedonien - Eine Dokumentensammlung, I., 19.)
Български: "...Императорът го пратил в Цариград при орфанотрофа, след като го повишил в звание магистър, а самият той, като се вдигнал от Мосинопол, отишъл в Солун. Оттам преминал и навлязъл в България, заловил Делян и го изпратил в Солун, а сам отишъл във вътрешността на страната. Защото Мануил Ивац бил издигнал дървена преграда при Прилеп, като смятъл да възпре императорската войска да напредва и да завземе вътрешността. Но императорът дошъл там светкавично бързо, разрушил дървената стена, разпръснал отряда на българите и заловил Ивац..." (Македония - сборник от документи и материали, I., 19., стр. 65)
