I detta senare senare rike hade en konung Sigismund bestigit tronen i December 1506 och kom snart i krig med Ryssland, emedan han ville återta Smolensk, som en förrädare öfverlemnat åt Wasilej. Sigismund förde kriget med lycka, besegrade gång efter annan den ryska hären och återtog Smolensk. Svante Sture omtalar i bref till erkebiskopen den polske konungens segrar och önskar honom lycka.
