When more than 1,300 Cossack cavalry erupted with a sharp whistle, appearing at the rear flank of the Persian Holy War Knight Order, the outcome of the battle was already determined.
The Persian heavy cavalry, having just endured two full-force charges, were now exhausted, both man and horse, and were suddenly ambushed. They were quickly divided into several groups with almost no resistance and then each fled along various routes.
By the next afternoon, the Persian army, trapped on the northern side of the Kerchanski Hills, began to surrender after losing command and being heavily surrounded.
Aga Muhammad had ordered the main force to retreat at dawn.
That night, Tbilisi celebrated wildly, rejoicing in their alliance with the Tsar's army in defeating the brutal Persians.
