In 1177 he helped Vsevolod in the war against Rostislavich Gleb of Ryazan. But much more famous Vladimir fighting Polovtsy. In 1184 Svyatoslav and Rurik Rostislavich made in the steppe. Russian crossed the Dnieper on fig-ford. Here Vladimir asked to go Svyatoslav go before all. "My parish is empty of Polovtsy - he said - so let me, father Svyatoslav advance the watchmen! Svetoslav agreed and dismissed with Vladimir 2100 Berendeys. Polovtsi, seeing a regiment of Vladimir, fled, so that Russian patrol unit was unable to catch up with them and returned to the river Erelu. Khan Kobyak, thinking that this whole Russian squad, gave chase Vladimir became skirmish with them across the river. There arrived, Svyatoslav and Rurik the main forces. Russian steel strike and miss Polovtsy, captured 7000 people, together with the Kobyakov. In 1185 came to Rus Khan Konchak. Svetoslav with Rurik went to Polovtsy, and sent me ahead of Vladimir and Mstislav Romanovich. Together they attacked Konchak and turned it into flight.

That summer Konchak, defeating the steppe Igor's, went straight to Pereyaslavl, besieged the city and fought the whole day. Vladimir left town and hit the Polovtsy with a small retinue, because the others did not dare to come out. Vladimir, surrounded by a multitude Polovtsy, wounding three spears. Then the rest of the squad, seeing the prince in danger, rushed out of the city and freed Vladimir, who, badly wounded, drove to his city and, according to the chronicler, he wiped his manly sweat of his paternal. Svyatoslav and Rurik heard that a Polovtsians Pereyaslavl ships sailed down the Dnieper, but Konchak, not waiting for them, went into the steppe.

In 1187 Svyatoslav with Rurik came back to Polovtsy. Vladimir came to him from Pereyaslavl with team and asked leave to go ahead with black hoods. Svyatoslav not want to let Vladimir advance of their sons, but Rurik and all others like it, because Pereyaslav prince was bold and strong in battle, always strove to do good deeds. Polovtsi did not take the battle away in the steppe. On his return from a hike Vladimir started to hurt and died. I cried for him all Pereyaslavets, because he loved the squad, gold is not collected, the estate is not spared, but handed the squad, the prince was a good, strong courage and every virtue filled.
