But he could deal with the Turks and save some of their possessions, under very difficult conditions. Kruja and Sfetigradi, passed over to the Turkish army; The province of Dibra, detached from the possessions of the Kastrioti. John was burdened with a heavy tribute, was forced to serve in the Turkish army earlier and send to Istanbul his Sultan hostage.
