“And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.”
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the thousands and the captains of the hundreds, which came from the battle — Moses' anger erupts upon seeing the returning warriors, specifically targeting commanders. His wrath is not at the victory but (as the next verse reveals) at the incomplete execution of the divine judgment regarding the Midianite women.
