Ballesteros will be back!

Ballesteros has evacuated Villanueva and the Spanish battalions in march column formation are moving away, while Maransin forces have occupied all the village.

The Spanish infantry has formed a new line on the ridge, whereas the Cazadores de Barbastro are running before the advance of Pepin brigade that is closing on El Almendro.

The lone Regimiento de León, almost surrounded by enemy forces and deployed in the cemetery, is keeping at bay the French assaults.

And finally, under the French pressure, also retreats in perfect order towards the rest of their comrades that are awaiting the French advance.

But the battle ends in a draw after 23 turns, so it is considered a Spanish marginal victory. Like in the real world, Ballesteros will be back!
