Conception, which is signed ‘Bances’, presents in two folios the detailed list, per street/per parish, of the civilian dead and injured. The conclusion is that the total could be as high as 250, possibly even 280. These numbers indicated that between 20% and 30% of the Spanish civilians who were living near or within the walls of Badajoz were killed or injured during the sack of the city.

But when a force was asked to storm a fortress when practicable breaches had been formed, such casualties would have been deemed unnecessary. Given the enormity of the task facing the stormers in the
Peninsula, I for one begrudge them none of their feelings of anger and desire for revenge.
