The battle ended with the Chosun-Ming ally's victory. Konishi Yukinaga had to retreat from Pyung-yang and he went to Seoul.
I don't know how many men Konishi lost in the battles of Pyung-yang. But it's certain that he suffered from a huge lost of his men until January 1593. He landed on Busan with 18,700 troops in April 1592. He entered in Pyung-yang with 15,000 men. But when he arrived at Seoul in early 1593, he had only 6,600 soldiers who had survived from battles, cold winter weather and hunger caused by provision difficulties.
