 After this event, Greeks saw that their way towards victory was possible, they secured c.11,000 arms, with the entire Peloponnese bearing hardly any trace of Ottomans anymore.On the other hand, it also marked the first strong point of discord in a previously apparently cohesive force, since the atrocities committed during the siege were at the time strongly decried and criticized by some Phanariote figures of the Greek War of Independence such as Dimitrios Ypsilantis and Alexandros Mavrokordatos.The residual bitterness over the ultimate disposition of the spoils, along with generalized anarchy following the fall of the city, emphasized the divergent perspectives between the Peloponessian chieftains ("military faction") and the intellectual mentors of the uprising ("political faction").
