5. Then the Swedish army marched towards Tver. On July 13, the First Battle of Tver ended in a draw. At the Second Battle of Tver, the Swedes won. De la Gardie succeeded in what so many after him failed to do: capture Moscow. He did so on March 12, 1610, and was met with cheers from the residents of Moscow. Sweden succeeded where France (Napoleon) and Germany (Hitler) failed in conquering Moscow. Jakob Pontusson De la Gardie, born 20 June 1583 in Reval, died 12 August 1652 in Stockholm, was a Swedish field lord, field marshal, Swedish councilor and from 10 May 1615 count of Läckö. Jakob De la Gardie had an important role in the De la Gardie campaign and in the Ingermanland War.

6. From 1610 through 1612, troops of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth occupied Moscow, as its ruler Sigismund III tried to take the Russian throne. In 1612, the people of Nizhny Novgorod and other Russian cities conducted by prince Dmitry Pozharsky and Kuzma Minin rose against the Lithuanians occupants, besieged the Kremlin, and expelled them. In 1613, the Zemsky sobor elected Michael Romanov tsar, establishing the Romanov dynasty. Map of Moscow by Adam Olearius in 1638

7. Towards Moscow The first march was towards Novgorod, where Shuysky's nephew Mikhail Shuysky was waiting. His army of 1,000–1,500 men joined the Swedish; however, de la Gardie had expected more. On May 2, 1609, the army broke up and marched on Moscow, which was then under siege by people loyal to Dimitri (Dimitri was Fyodor II's younger brother who was murdered at a young age). Evert Horn and the vanguard of the army captured Staraya Russa. On May 12, de la Gardie and the main army arrived. Horn caught up and defeated the fleeing Russians at Kamenka on 15 May. On June 17, Horn took Torzjok after a brilliant Swedish victory. In June 1610, de la Gardie and Dmitry Shujski left Moscow to lift Stanisław Żółkiewski's siege of Smolensk. The active phase of the campaign ended with de la Gardies being annihilated here by Żółkiewski's army at the Battle of Klusjino on 25 June 1610. Peace was concluded in what came to be known as De la Gardies' day thing. In an agreement in 1609 between Sweden and Russia on military aid to the Tsar against his internal opponents, it was agreed, among other things, that the city and county of Kexholm were left to Sweden for eternity. That year the Swedes could not take over the area, but in 1611 they could. Through the peace of Stolbova in 1617, Kexholm County was recognized as Swedish.
