[2][3] After the liberation of Rudnik, Serbian Revolutionaries commanded by Lazar Mutap began attacking Ottoman positions near Čačak.

On 6 May 1815 the Ottomans responded to Serbian incursions by sending a force of 7,000-strong under Imšir Ćaja-paša to attack the rebels from the rear.

The rebels quickly retreated to Ljubić hill, where they regrouped and were reinforced with detachments commanded by Miloš Obrenović and Jovan Dimitrijević Dobrača.

The battle ended in Serbian victory,[4] with Serbs capturing large areas of territory and seizing valuable amounts of weaponry.

Serbian losses amounted to 1,500, against the complete destruction of Ottoman forces, including their commander Imšir (Ćaja-Paša).
