於是辱國之將軍奕山、奕經，參贊文蔚，總督牛鑑，提督餘步雲，先後就逮，步雲伏法。 The disgraced generals Yishan and Yijing, staff officer Wenwei, Governor-General Niu Jian, and Provincial Commander Yu Buyun were arrested in turn; Buyun was executed.

倘俯採輿論，孰不切齒琦善為罪魁，誰不疾首於奕山、奕經、牛鑑、文蔚，而以為投畀之不容緩？ If Your Majesty heeded public opinion, who would not denounce Qishan as the chief culprit, or demand that Yishan, Yijing, Niu Jian, and Wenwei be cast out without delay?
