When the artillery unit from Iron Peak County finally arrived at the battlefield, the remaining troops of the council were despairingly trying to break through.
The last two organized battalions of the council army, along with other routed soldiers who fled into River Valley Village, formed a large square of over a thousand men, slowly moving along the provincial highway toward the camp.
The artillery from Iron Peak County set up their cannons on the mound and continuously bombarded them.
Before they walked a kilometer, the large square of a thousand men dissolved under the cannon fire, with soldiers joining in a panicked flight.

Jacob Green, who witnessed this scene, recorded the following in his notes:
"4 PM, Colonel Bod Gates lost the battle;"
"6 PM, Civil Guard Officer Winters Montagne won the battle."
