The battle of Ovche Pole occurred between 14 October 1915 and 15 November 1915. The Bulgarian aim was not to allow the Serbian troops to join the Allied army in Solun. In order to achieve that, Bulgaria's Second Army (3rd Balkan Infantry Division, 7th Rila Division and the Cavalry Division with 220 guns) had to defeat the Serbian forces in Macedonia and advance to the Albanian and Greek borders.

dbpprop:abstract
  • The battle of Ovche Pole occurred between 14 October 1915 and 15 November 1915. The Bulgarian aim was not to allow the Serbian troops to join the Allied army in Solun. In order to achieve that, Bulgaria's Second Army (3rd Balkan Infantry Division, 7th Rila Division and the Cavalry Division with 220 guns) had to defeat the Serbian forces in Macedonia and advance to the Albanian and Greek borders. The main blow was at Kumanovo where the Bulgarian 3rd and 7th divisions easily defeated the Serbian army. On the third day the Bulgarian Cavalry Division also advanced, defeating the Serbia counter-attack and reaching Veles and the Vardar. With this success the aim was achieved. While fighting against the Serbs, the Bulgarians defeated two French divisions in the battle of Krivolak and conclusively cut the way between the Serbs and the Allies, which resulted in the fall of Serbia after the battle of Kosovo.
