Outcome of the battle

edit

Can not consider this battle for another score as the Polish-Tartar victory. Muscovite-Cossack army suffered much higher losses there than the Polish side and was forced to withdraw from the battlefield. Image of the individual clashes also fared against it. On the first day of the battle, Polish-Tatar army was victorious in the battle cavalry. Muscovite-Cossack army retreated to laager. Polish side led to the breach in laager. Also ability to combat Muscovite-Cossack army to a large extent was this battle be lost. The only thing that managed to Muscovite-Cossack army in terms of tactical that it could not be completely broken down and managed to withdraw (and is primarily due to the passivity of the Tartars bribed). There is no here any elements from the tactical to regarded this as an inconclusive battle. It was a tactical victory Poles and Tatars. From the strategy side could be the battle for the inconclusive, although it would be easier to identify here the winner Polish-Tatar, because it is through action in this battle the Poles managed to stop a major offensive Cossacks-Muscovite and forced them to retreat to the east. Cossack military successes in this field, this only rescue Puszkarenko and Bohun. From both strategic and tactical side, this battle was a victory Polish-Tartar troops. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kcdlp (talkcontribs) 04:01, 30 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
