Malalas XVIII p.153 and Chron. Pasch. P.335 A record a campaign in Colchis.
Described by Theophanes p.149 A at the 1 st year of Justinian. Cedrenus p. 366 D follows
Theophanes. The Lazi apply for aid against the Persians. Three generals are sent
(Belisarius Cerycus Irenæus Chron. Pasch. Gilderich Cerycus Irenæus Malal. Belisarius
Cerycus Petrus Theoph. Cedren.) who are defeated and recalled. Petrus is sent (a second
Petrus in Theophanes), who routs the enemy. Procopius Pers. I.13 p. 35 at this period does
not name the Lazi, but gives the following facts: Justinian ordered Belisarius to terrorize
a fortress in village of Mindon- which is located on the left of Nisibi; who immediately
executed what the king wanted him to do.-The Persians departed.-who were not far away
and they were threatening to prevent the works. Since the king heard these-he
dispatched another army immediately under the command of Koutzi and Vouzi who
were leading the soldiers in Lebanon. Both these two brothers from Thrace were new.
The Romans were defeated after a heavy fighting etc. He then passes to the campaign of
A.D. 530. Malalas XVIII p. 174 and when concurrence happened-thirty thousand
Persians rushed in Mesopotamia and with Xerxes the son of king Koades (because his
eldest son Perozis was fighting in the land of Lazi and the Armenian Persia with a lot of
aid; because their father Koades-di not come against the Roman); Koutsis of Vitalianus-
and Sebastian with the Isaurian hand and Proclus the duce of Phoenician an count of
the king attacked against Meran and Xerxes. Belisarius also was with thema and
Tafaras the chieftain. The Persians are victorious: Belisarius fleeing the battle saved
himself. Placed by Malalas in 528 before the earthquake of Antioch in November of that
year.
