The Tunisian Guard left a trail of corpses as they retreated. The Rebel Army immediately launched a counterattack under the command of a French officer.
Seeing this, Zemir drew his curved sword and charged onto the battlefield, leading his soldiers in pursuit of the fleeing Ottoman People, shouting orders.
Although the tens of thousands of Rebel Army soldiers surged forward in disarray, with no semblance of formation or order, the Imperial Guard had completely lost their will to fight at this point, merely trying to flee headlong, which meant the battle quickly turned into a one-sided massacre.
More than two hours later, nearly all of the Tunisian Guards had been driven to a small area to the north of the city. Koja saw that the situation was hopeless and had no choice but to order his men to lay down their weapons and surrender.
