Busy soldiers walked back and forth on the riverbank, as auxiliary troops dragged corpses and placed them to the side for classification and stacking.

As for the corpses belonging to the Chu people, they would be incinerated separately according to their identity tags and their ashes and belongings sent back to their hometowns.
