The total loss in killed, wounded, and prisoners on the part of the Austrians was 3308.

That of the Prussians was about the same.
Although indecisive--and indeed, claimed as a victory by both parties--the consequences showed that the advantage lay with the Prussians.

Marshal Browne's object had been to relieve the Saxons, Frederick's to prevent this; and for the moment he had wholly succeeded.
On the other hand was the fact that Marshal Browne had drawn off his army practically intact, and that it was impossible for the king to winter in Bohemia, as he would have done had the Austrian army been defeated and dispersed; and the latter were still in a position to make a fresh attempt to rescue the Saxons.
To prevent this, the king despatched the Duke of Bevern with a large force, as if to get between the Austrians and the river Eger.
This movement had the desired effect.

Marshal Browne at once fell back, recrossed the river, and took up his position at his former camp at Budin.

From there he opened communications with the Saxons, and it was arranged that these should pass the Elbe; and that he, with 8000 men, should also do so, and march to meet them.
The Saxons, however, were detained, owing to the terrible weather and the enormous difficulty of the defiles, and only crossed on the 13th.
