At first, only a small number of goblins fled. But with the Centaur army having completely withdrawn, the other goblins soon saw that the escapees faced no punishment, and a large-scale rout began.

"For glory and honor!"
"Victory belongs to Affleck!"
The Soldiers drove their wagons, charging in all directions with loud cries. The already chaotic battlefield descended into an absolute free-for-all.
Unlike earlier in the battle, however, the goblins were now in a full rout, having lost all will to resist.
