After tasting success, Brigadier General MacMahon handled the first wave of bandits and immediately began clearing the second wave. Each bandit camp was swiftly destroyed by the Zouave soldiers, like a hot knife through butter, and all the bandits in the camps were shot dead at Ivanov's insistence.
The bodies of the bandits were also bought by Ivanov at a price of ten francs each and transported to Yevpatoria Town by cart.
The wealthy merchants of Yevpatoria Town, who originally had fear and resentment towards the French Empire, immediately expressed their gratitude to MacMahon upon seeing the carts filled with bodies.
For these merchants engaged in the flour and wine business, nothing was more detestable than the Tatar bandits.
To show their gratitude to Brigadier General MacMahon and others, Kasina Cheyev organized the wealthy merchants in town to present honey, fruit wine, grape wine, and flour as gifts to the Zouave Corps stationed outside the town.
