Ohm's law tells us that current density $\vec{J}$is is proportional to electric field $\vec{E}$. But from my last post Working of battery in circuitpost

As, as well as this blog https://physicsteacher.blog/2022/07/07/explaining-current-flow-in-conductors-part-one/

 , a comment introduced me to the concept that it is instead the surface charge density that created the electric field and helphelps in current conduction. 

So which electric field is the $\vec{E}$ in $\vec{J}=\sigma \vec{E}$ here? Is it of the surface charge densities of the wire pr, or of the battery? Or is the electric fields inside the wire due to the surface charges the same as that of the battery? Kindly enlighten me with the proper concept.
