[2] On 14–15 October, the 3rd Division stopped Żeligowski's attack in the western direction on the left bank of the Neris river at the line of Vievis–Valkininkai.

[1] Żeligowski was forced to hurry because his soldier's combativeness gradually weakened and he still sought to seize more Lithuanian territory.

[1] The Polish cavalry, having crossed Šventoji near Kavarskas, pushed deep into Lithuania and reached the vicinity of Kėdainiai.

[1] Edvardas Adamkavičius, commanding the 1st Division, approved the plan put forth by the meeting of the 7th Infantry Regiment's officers.

The plan to bypass Širvintos and attack the Poles from the flank and rear was originally proposed by Teodoras Balnas, the commander of the 7th Regiment's 3rd Battalion.

[1] On the evening of November 18, Balnas formed a group of 170-200 soldiers, which he led in a 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) march through the forest at night.

[1] The group attacked the battalion of the Polish Grodno Regiment [pl] stationed near the village of Motiejūnai [lt].

[1] The Lithuanians conquered many war trophies, which included two cannons, nine mortars, twenty machine guns, and many wagons.

[1] On the morning of November 19, the Lithuanian army commander General Silvestras Žukauskas arrived in Ukmergė and organized a counterattack with the entire front.

[1] During the fighting of November 17–21, the Polish material losses included a smashed armored car, 2 machine guns, about 20,000 rifle cartridges, several artillery shell carriages.

[1] With the mediation of the League's Military Control Commission, the Lithuanian government and Żeligowski signed the Treaty of Kaunas, a cease-fire protocol, on November 29, which established the 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) wide Polish–Lithuanian Neutral Strip.
