Alexios raised an army against the Pechenegs by giving Tatikios money & telling Oumbertos to bring Latins

Summary:
Alexios mourned deeply for his old friend Gregorios Pakourianos and wept many tears. But he soon started to raise a new army by giving money to Tatikios to pay recruits and sending him to Adrianople. To complete his new army, he asked Konstantinos Humbertopoulos to leave a satisfactory garrison in Kyzikos and to join Tatikios with his Latin troops. When Tatikios, after raising his own army, saw the arrival of Humbertopoulos and his Latins, he took heart, and immediately moved against the Pechenegs
