It broke out in connection with the signing of the Treaty of Gadyach with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth by Vyhovsky in September 1658. In 1659, the combined forces of the Russian army of Grigory Romodanovsky and the Cossack regiments of Ivan Bohun, Ivan Bespaly and the Zaporozhian Cossacks of Ivan Sirko defeated the army led by Vyhovsky near Lubny and Lokhvitsa . After the defeat, Vyhovsky began negotiations on accepting Ukraine into Turkish citizenship and turned to the Crimean Tatars for help . Ivan Bohun and Ivan Sirko defeated the Tatars and moved on the hetman's capital of Chigirin . Vyhovsky fled to territory under Polish control, where he was subsequently shot (March 17, 1664 in the village of Rokytnoye, Kiev Voivodeship).
