  • The Battle of Tryškiai, Tryszki, or Triski, on December 14, 1701, was a small engagement between Swedish forces under Charles XII of Sweden and Polish–Lithuanian forces under Grzegorz Antoni Ogiński, in the town of Tryškiai, Samogitia (present-day Lithuania). After the Crossing of the Düna Charles went into an alliance with the Sapieha family to gain his support in dethroning Augustus II the Strong from the Polish-Lithuanian throne, in exchange for protection from rival families in Samogitia, such as the Ogiński family. After initial engagements between Swedish forces and those loyal to Grzegorz Antoni Ogiński, the Swedish king personally takes command of the troops and engages Grzegorz at the town of Tryškiai; after a brief encounter, Grzegorz is forced on the run and, with Charles being hot on his heels, eventually retreats out of Samogitia altogether. A Swedish detachment is established at Kaunas in Lithuania, as a sort of forward operating base before the inevitable Swedish invasion of Poland (1701–1706); further engagements, foremost the Battle of Darsūniškis, confirms the Swedish invasion. Although only a small action in a major war, the battle quickly sparked false rumours to be spread around Europe; one spoke of Charles' death somewhere in Lithuania, while the other mentioned a major defeat for Grzegorz, involving many thousands of participants.

  • Slaget vid Tryškiai var en skärmytsling som utspelades i december 1701 under det stora nordiska kriget. Sedan hösten 1701 hade kung Karl XII skickat mindre svenska styrkor till Litauen för att dels skydda Kazimierz Jan Sapiehas gods, dels för att försöka komma i kontakt med hetman Grzegorz Antoni Ogińskis polska trupper i området. I december genomförde Ogiński ett nattligt överfall mot Karl XII:s fältläger vid byn Tryszki (dagens Tryškiai) i Samogitien. Ogiński slog dock till reträtt efter en kort strid, och aktionen ledde senare till Karl XII:s fälttåg i det polsk-litauiska samväldet år 1702. (sv)
