Timeline

1512–1513Smolensk · RussiaAfter the Crimean Khanate raided Moscow's Upper Oka region in May 1512, Vasily III accused Lithuania of instigating it and marched out. Moscow's two sieges of Smolensk in 1512–1513 both failed, while Ostrogski led a counterattack against Moscow's forces in the Severia region.
1514Smolensk–Orsha front · BelarusIn May 1514 Moscow's army besieged Smolensk for a third time; some local nobles defected to Russia, and the city fell on July 31. In September Poland-Lithuania won a great victory over the Russian army at Orsha, but failed to retake Smolensk, and the war fell into stalemate.
1515–1522Polish-Russian border · Eastern EuropeAfter 1515 the two sides repeatedly fought back and forth along Vitebsk, Polotsk, Velikiye Luki and other places. Moscow signed a six-month truce in 1520, and a final five-year truce in December 1522 confirmed Smolensk's belonging to Moscow, with no exchange of prisoners; Moscow won a territorial victory.
