Afterwards while the army (allegedly 80,000 men including 5,000 knights) marched upon Thessalonica, the fleet (200 ships) sailed towards the same target capturing on their way the Ionian islands of Corfu, Cephalonia, Ithaca and Zakynthos.
Setelah itu sementara tentara (yang diduga sebanyak 80,000 orang termasuk 5,000 ksatria) berbaris di Thessaloniki, armada (200 kapal) berlayar menuju ke sasaran yang sama dengan menangkap Kepulauan Ionia di Kerkyra, Kefalonia, Ithaki dan Zakynthos.
