==Aftermath== As the battle ended, [["King" of Poland|King]] [[John II Casimir Vasa|John Casimir]] made the error of not pressing even harder the pursuit of the fleeing [[Zaporozhian Cossacks|Cossacks]], "the first several days following ... defeat of the enemy were so blatantly wasted" but there "was the unwillingness of the nobility's levée en masse to proceed into [[Cossack Hetmanate|Ukraine]]" plus "rainy weather and a lack of food and fodder, coupled with epidemics and diseases that were becoming active in the army, were generally undercutting any energy for war".<ref name="Hrushevsky, p. 361">Hrushevsky, p. 361</ref> The "king left the whole army to Potocki" on 17 July 1651, and returned "to [[Warsaw]] to celebrate his victories over the [[Zaporozhian Cossacks|Cossacks]]".<ref name="Hrushevsky, p. 361"/> After making promises of a pecuniary nature, [[Hetman of the Zaporizhian Host|Hetman]] [[Bohdan Khmelnytsky]] was soon released by the Tatar Khan [[İslâm III Giray]] He was then able to reassemble the [[Zaporozhian Host]], which was able to present a substantial army to confront the Poles at the [[Battle of Bila Tserkva (1651)]]. Poland and "the bulk of the rebels make peace in the [[Treaty of Bila Tserkva]]" on 28 September 1651, which "reduces the number of [[registered Cossacks]] from 40,000 to 20,000 and deprives them of the right to settle in or control various provinces of [[Cossack Hetmanate|Ukraine]] previously allowed to them under the [[Treaty of Zboriv]]".<ref name="Tucker, p. 622">Tucker, p. 622</ref> The Ukrainian revolt, far from ending, would continue for several more years under Khmelnytsky.<ref name="Tucker, p. 622"/> [[Image:Battle of Beresteczko 1651.jpg|thumb|right|275px|''The Battle of Berestechko'' by Vernier]] [[File:Battle of Beresteczko 1651 1.PNG|thumb|275px|''Th Battle of Beresteczko, 1651'' by Władysław Witkowski]]
