 Another source held that only Mago's camp was taken, that 7,000 of the enemy were killed and that the battle against Hasdrubal was a sortie; here 10,000 were killed and 4,380 were captured.According to a third source 5,000 men were killed in an ambush when Mago pursued the Romans.These feats were romanticised by Roman writers and it must be noted that they were made possible by the Carthaginians' delay in following up their advantage.
