[1] Kučuk Alija found out that Karađorđe had left, so he sent Tosun Aga with five hundred Turkish horsemen to break through to Batočina at night.
Musein Ganić and Jusuf-aga Klimentić were also killed in the battle, while Tosun aga barely escaped and fled to Jagodina.
Karađorđe led an army consisting of men from Smederevo, Kragujevac, Groč and partly the Rudnik, Požega and Užice districts.
Though, a larger detachment of Turks was waiting for Dimitrije Parezan's unit in front of Novi Pazar where the real battle took place.
The Serbs were, however, able to stop the Turkish advance because Dimitrije ordered an assault and the people of Lepenica obeyed and set out immediately to meet the Turks.
Heavy fighting ensued, and Dimitrije in the midst of close combat could not avoid being struck with an enemy sword.
[5] Dimitrije Parezan went on to lead his people from Lepenice before the end of the First Serbian Uprising in an attempt to prevent the Turks from moving north.
