Excerpt from Histoire de la Régénération de la Grèce, Vol. 4: Comprenant les Précis des Événemens Depuis 1740 Jusqu'en 1824
C'était le point principal de communication des Souliotes avec les Hydriotes; il n'y avait pour le défendre qu'une tour qui renfermait une garnison de cinquante - trois sol dats, commandés par les capitaines Perevos Costas Ti molas et Kitzos contre lesquels on envoya un corps de quatre mille hommes sous la conduite d'achmet Briones neveu d'omer pacha. Il avait ordre d'employer la voie des armes ou de la corruption afin de se rendre maître de Régniassa; et comme les chrétiens n'étaient pas assez nom breux pour venir à sa rencontre, il les attaqua avec deux pièces de campagne qu'il traînait à sa suite. Les assiégés firent bonne contenance; mais après quelques combats dans lesquels il y eut du côté des Turcs douze soldats tués et trente blessés Achmet Briones ayant parlé d'argent les Souliotes qui n'avaient perdu qu'un seul homme, man quant d'eau à cause du mauvais état des citernes consen tirent à traiter. Ils dictèrent la capitulation. Elle portait qu'ils recevraient quarante mille piastres turques pour solde de leurs services pendant le siége de J anima, et qu'ils ren treraient à Souli avec armes et bagages.
