'''Jovan Tomić Belov''' ([[Serbian cyrillic[[Donje Crniljevo]], 1780 - [[Golo Brdo]] above [[Lešnica, Serbia|Lešnica]] in 1810) distinguished himself in many battles as a true hero. It is said that he received a pair of [[Mehmed-beg Kulenović|Kulin]]'s pistols, which are still part of his family's [[heirloom]]. "Once, in [[Jelenča]], says the late [[Petar Jokić]], the Turks surrounded [[Karađorđe]] and all of us (his army), and they want to cut him down. The night before, Jovan Tomić Belov, with 50 men, killed a Turkish commander called Ćurtoglić, better known as Curtog-pasha, took his sword, entered the trench, and saved his men.{{Citation needed|date=September 2020}}

In [[Lešnica, Serbia|Lešnica]] in one battle outside the trench, Belov collided with a Turk who wanted to cut him down, and when he leaned to the side, the Turk struck his horse with a sword on the neck. Belov quickly tightened the reins of the horse, with his sword, cut off the Turk's head, drove his horse to the trench, then jumped off the saddle and let go of the reins, then the neck of the horse fell, because it was cut in half, and the horse fell dead to the ground.

Jovan Belov never wanted to accept any ranks, except during battle when he got command over some department of the army, and he fought bravely to earn the rank. Also, his wit and heroism were so appreciated that he was chosen second in command to [[Luka Lazarević]].<ref>name="auto">{{Cite web|url=http://www.riznicasrpska.net/ponossrpstva/index.php?topic=193.0|title=Jovan Tomić Belov (?—1813)|website=www.riznicasrpska.net}}</ref>

Then he gathered some hay, as Sima Milutinović Sarajlija wrote,"put it under his head, and exhaled with a smile and died.
