During the Ingrian War, skirmishes between Swedish and Russian ships regularly took place in the Lake Ladoga region.

[1] Soon after, Hans Munck, who was the commander of Kexholm County, was forced to confront a large Russian landing into Swedish territory.

As they landed, Munck confronted them, managing to push them back to their boats, with the Russians suffering 30 killed and 15 captured in the process.

[1] After they were repelled, the Russians noticed that they outnumbered the Swedes, who were lesser than they thought, and thus made another attempt to land.

Then, Munck led a charge but was wounded, with his second in command Hans Stålhandske managing to rout the Russians.
