The new Cossack commander, colonel Filon Dzhala- lii, ordered the construction of a causeway through the swamp to enable the Cossack army to withdraw. The period from the 1st to the 9th of July was spent on negotiations with the Polish- -Lithuanian side and exchange of artillery fire, the Cossacks were also continuing to build the causeway. However, on the 9th of July there was a rebellion in the wagon train and Dzhalalii was overthrown. The experienced colonel Ivan Bohun was chosen in his place. On the next morning panic spread throughout the Cossack camp on the news that the elders ran away. The Polish-Lithuanian units pursued the panic stricken Cossacks and massacred thousands fleeing through the unfinished causeway and the bridge on Plaszówka River. Colonel Bohun managed to gather some of the units and led them safely from the battlefield. Still the whole wagon train, artillery and supplies of the Cossack army were captured by the triumphant Poles and Lithuanians.
