It ended with the Russian troops being repulsed and their commander dying of his wounds sustained during the fighting.

In the beginning of July 1657, Christer Horn received reports that a Russian force planned to attack his field army, which was for the time being stationed in Kaporie county by the village of Kattila.

In total, the Russian force amounted to either 1,600[1][3] or 2,000 men, of which 1,000 were streltsy and 400 boyars, the remainder being Cossacks and peasants.

Consequently, the entire Russian force withdrew into a nearby forest, while the Swedes continued harassing them on their rear and flanks.

While the Russians had not been fully routed, nothing at this point prevented Buck from linking with Gustav Evertsson Horn.
