The cavalry pursued them as they fled; and the legions, coming up in a short time after, assaulted the camp, from whence there did not escape so many as six thousand men.

There were slain and taken above thirty-five thousand, with seventy standards, and above two hundred Gallic waggons laden with much booty.

Hamilcar, the Carthaginian general, fell in that battle, and three distinguished generals of the Gauls.

The prisoners taken at Placentia, to the number of two thousand freemen, were restored to the colony.

This was an important victory, and caused great joy at Rome.
