Throughout 1612, Polish-Lithuanian formations began to leave Moscow. Commander Gonsevsky left in June, along with the veterans of the Klushino Battle and the remnants of the Kremlin's treasury. Nikolai Strus commanded what remained of the garrison. The garrison itself was almost resupplied during the Battle of Moscow in September, but forces with some 400 carts of provisions were forced to retreat after getting within two kilometers of the Kremlin.
