The chaotic raid from Chaos ultimately resulted in over two thousand casualties, with the vast majority marked as killed in action—at first, they were classified as missing, because this was according to military standards.
But Malin, against all objections, had them designated as killed in action.
Today, the 21st Battle Group of the Northern Kingdom responsible for the front line was annihilated. From the group leader, the deputy group leader down, all platoon leaders and deputies, and all non-commissioned officers were lost. Of the entire group's 20 full-strength platoons, only the three platoons on break survived when Malin spotted the enemy's trace, but because the rest area for those on break was too close to the first defensive line, after Chaos pressed on all fronts, they were quickly obliterated, with only three wounded soldiers from the initial battle sent to the rear.
