Led by Jeremi Wiśniowiecki the Crown forces invaded Volhynia , but were forced to retreat from Starokostyantyniv to a small , yet better fortified Zbarazh Castle . The Cossack and Tatar forces ( which arrived in Volhynia in late June ) laid a siege to the entrenched Polish army on July 10 , 1649 . After receiving information about the critical situation of Wiśniowiecki ' s troops in Zbaraż ( Zbarazh ) the King of Poland John II Casimir left Lublin with about 25 , 000 - 30 , 000 men and marched to relieve them . On August 15 , 1649 Bohdan Khmelnytsky acquired information on advancing Polish reinforcements . He left his General Quartermaster to continue the siege , while he , along with Khan İslâm III Giray and 60 , 000 troops moved westwards to intercept the main Polish force . The Crown forces were surprised while crossing the river Strypa . The battle lasted two days and was very bloody .

The agreement was to some degree advantageous to the Cossacks , while being less than what Khmelnytsky originally hoped to obtain from his campaign . The fighting itself was technically inconclusive as both forces remained undefeated on the battlefield when the ceasefire took effect .
