The Battle of Mount Puray (Filipino: Labanan sa Bundok ng Puray, Spanish: Batalla de Monte Puray), sometimes known as Battle of Mount Purog (Filipino: Labanan sa Bundok ng Purog, Spanish: Batalla de Monte Purog), was fought on June 14, 1897, between the Philippine revolutionaries led by Revolutionary President Emilio Aguinaldo and General Licerio Geronimo and Spanish forces sent under orders by Governor-General Fernando Primo de Rivera. Filipino forces won a victory in this battle in which a Spanish army pursuing them was crushed and routed. The Filipinos' victory in the battle ended the long evacuation from Cavite to Morong, and made possible the setting up of their new revolutionary headquarters in the battlefield's vicinity and then later to Biac-na-Bato in Bulacan.
