Except for a squadron of the Mounted Grenadiers Regiment who did not switch sides, the event meant the almost complete disappearance of the forces brought to Peru by General José de San Martín.[1] General Cirilo Correa [es] then assumed command of the remains of the Andes Division of the Liberating Expedition, reduced to officers without units under their command and a squadron of the Mounted Grenadiers Regiment that fought in the battles of Junín and Ayacucho and was in the rearguard in the Battle of Corpahuaico [es], returning his men to Buenos Aires after the royalist capitulation in Ayacucho.
After the mutiny, the Chilean units were completely dissolved in Peru. On January 31, 1825, while the siege of Callao was still being held, Admiral Manuel Blanco Encalada negotiated with the royalist chief José Ramón Rodil the release of 16 Chilean officers who had been prisoners in the fortresses since the uprising of the garrison.[2]
^Formerly the "Regiment of the Río de la Plata" (Spanish: Regimiento Río de la Plata), upon switching sides it became the "Loyalty Regiment" (Spanish: Regimiento de la lealtad), also known as the "Real Felipe Regiment" (Spanish: Regimiento del Real Felipe) of the Spanish Army.
