Left with an army of seven thousand, Sheremetev did not shy away from the battle and broke the advanced regiment of the Tatars, took the banner of the Shirin princes, and he was seriously wounded.

But Alexey Basmanov and Stefan Sidorov managed to stop the fleeing and settled down with two thousand in an oak grove and in a gully (on a slope), where the wagon train stood, turned into a fortress on wheels.

Khan carried out an assault three times, but, unable to quickly defeat the Russians and fearing the approach of the tsar's army, he went into the steppes.
