They concentrated themselves at the mountainous village of Anglon which featured a fortress and was located near the [[Dvin (ancient city)|Dvin]] plain. They prepared a defensive position for an elaborate ambush by blocking the entrances to the village, digging [[trench]]es, and setting up ambushes in the houses of the village outside the fortress, while marshaling the army below. According to Procopius, the Roman generals lacked a proper union among themselves. The Roman forces proceeded into the rough terrain of Anglon, and hastily formed a single-line [[Tactical formation|formation]] after the commanders were informed of the Persian presence, with Martin forming the center, Peter forming the right, and Valerian (probably joined by Narses) forming the left. Narses and his regulars and Herules were the first to engage. Apparently, part of the Persian army is defeated, and the Persian cavalry feigns retreat toward the fortress, and their flight is followed by the Herules and others as ''[[koursores]]''. The Persians, including their archers, then launch their ambush from the buildings outside the fortress, easily routing the lightly-armored Herules, while their commander Narses was mortally wounded in close combat in a temple. A general Persian counterattack then resulted in the routing of the Romans. The Persians did not pursue them beyond the rough terrain out of fear of an ambush. [[Adolius]] was among those killed in the retreat.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Syvänne |first1=Ilkka |title=The Age of Hippotoxotai: Art of War in Roman Military Revival and Disaster (491-636) |date=2004 |publisher=Tampere University Press |isbn=9789514459184 |page=442 |language=en}}</ref><ref name=Bury>{{cite book |last1=Bury |first1=John Bagnell |authorlink=J.
