You may notice this yourself, when after a battle where you had some units rout, those units are magically at a higher strength on the stratmap than they were at the conclusion of the fight.

But if they AI kills its prisoners upon losing (as it often does) then no such mercy.

I always Murder My prizoners in droves, Untill the Enemy begins to rout,
Seems to reduce there morrale,
And makes others frightend of my generals,

But then Again i always Execute ALL rebels as well.
