Chapter 1721: A Punch on Cotton
Although it is winter, it is not cold in Subia. It is a bit exaggerated to say that the temperature is similar to that in Guangdong and Guangxi, but it is not time to wear thick cotton clothes.
According to the average temperature, even in the coldest time of the year, you can only wear a sweater at most.
In contrast, the capital of Avarus, the Silver City, has long been covered in silver, and about one-third of the country has been sealed under ice and snow.
This may be why more and more letters from the rear asking Viola to withdraw the troops are coming.
Avarus really can't afford to continue fighting. If it continues like this, the farmers will not even have food for the winter or even for the spring.
Viola also knows this very well. Although she occasionally shows the characteristics of a tyrant, she is not an ignorant and stubborn person. She knows the reality of the situation.
Withdrawal is imminent, and Viola has finally waited for the last link of her strategic plan.
Take the mountain pass fortress.
This should have been done a month ago, but due to the operation of Orde, the lava erupted, and a large area of magma blocked the army's route. The volcanic ash and the scorching temperature also forced Viola to stay where she was.
Until now, the eruption has finally stopped, and the lava has basically cooled down completely. Taking this opportunity, Viola immediately asked the army, which had been resting for a month, to move out.
The mountain pass fortress that Viola wanted to take was an important land hub connecting the Subia Demon Kingdom with the mainland. Taking it here is equivalent to controlling the mountains.
It also turned Subia, a land country, into a peninsula country.
Part of its land territory was taken by Guatni, and part was taken away by Avarus. Its strength was severely damaged, and it would take decades to recover.
Viola got the latest news not long ago that Laxuriya was sending reinforcements to the vicinity of the Enwei Demon Kingdom, which made the Enwei Demon Kingdom, the only one that was not involved in the war, extremely terrified.
Viola's ministers sent several messages to the Enwei Demon Kingdom hoping to speed up the delivery of prisoners of war and restore troops as soon as possible.
This is a good thing. Avarus can watch the fire from the other side of the river and make some money from the war. Not participating does not mean that there is no money to be made.
Anyway, it is now waiting for the price, and Viola is not in a hurry. It is estimated that Laxuriya will at least wait until the end of the spring farming season before starting the war against the Enwei Demon Kingdom.
Oswaya took back its own fortress and territory from the Tandron Demon Kingdom, and further expanded its territory. Like Avarus, it has reached the limit of its appetite.
The Oswaya Demon Kingdom has never been good at fighting. It is a pie in the sky to expand its territory with this favorable wind, and they do not pursue more territory.
At present, the Oswaya Demon Kingdom is in the role of a peacemaker. It has sent people to send letters to Viola several times, hoping to end the war with the Subia Demon Kingdom.
The nobles of Oswaya and Subia are closely connected, and most likely they asked someone to find Viola.
This just fits Viola's wishes. She really can't fight anymore, but it's different for others to ask for peace and for her to withdraw her troops on her own initiative.
So Viola deliberately delayed her reply and waited until she reached her limit, mainly trying to pull the other side so that she could have an advantage during the negotiation.
Guatni has also reached its limit. It's not that they can't fight anymore, but that they can't eat anymore.
As the weakest Demon Kingdom, Guatni has a small population. Even if it occupies more territory, it doesn't have enough people to develop and recruit. Keeping too many people in its hands would be troublesome.
Guatni is now waiting for Viola to express her position. She said that when the ceasefire is reached, Guatni will naturally take advantage of the situation and have a step down.
As for the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon, it has now become history.
The territory was divided among the three kingdoms, and only the capital was retained as a neutral city, and a branch of the Tandelon royal family that did not pose any threat was chosen.
This neutral city will become a buffer zone between the territories of the three countries, so that everyone can feel more at ease.
The world situation is roughly like this. The seven demon kingdoms have become six. As for whether it will become five or even four, it is not possible to make a judgment in a short time. Anyway, Avarus will not be able to launch a large-scale war in the next ten years at least, and there will be no more mobilization of tens of thousands of people. It will enter a long period of recuperation.
Princess Flavia came to Viola several times, hoping that she could continue to fight, but Viola's decision could not be changed because of her few words.
The significance of this princess's existence is just a big banner. Now that the war is almost over, the big banner is naturally useless.
Her current surplus value is to wait until the negotiation.
According to Viola's idea, if Flavia can return to Subia and entangle with her brother, it would naturally be the best, but there are still many details to consider, and it is just a general direction for the time being.
The Demon Realm is about to come out of several years of war and return to a peaceful period. Although conflicts will still break out, there will be no large-scale wars.
This will be conducive to the spread of the Demon King Cult, and it is likely that the next trouble will be the struggle in religious economy and culture.
Of course, the most important thing for Viola now is to take down the mountain pass fortress.
The fortress is not far from Viola's army. It is only a day or two away. If it were not for the lava blocking the way, it would have been done long ago.
However, when Viola rushed to the fortress with her army with the idea of fighting the last battle, she found that the fortress was quiet and did not look like it was dealing with a siege at all.
Subia is not Tandron, and it is far from Avarus. Although Li Chengxi's fire rain caused serious psychological trauma to the soldiers of Subia, the power of the Demon King Cult has not spread, and the main religion here is still the Raging Wave Girl Hilofil.
So it is unlikely that the people will open the city gates themselves as soon as the army arrives, as in Tandron.
Viola thought there might be a trick, so she sent a reconnaissance team to check, and the army waited outside at a safe distance.
As a result, there was really no one in the fortress.
This is not even an empty city plan, it is completely that the Subia army abandoned the fortress and ran away.
To be honest, this is actually very strange. Without the Yamaguchi Fortress, Subia will almost never have a chance to return to the mainland. Viola thinks there will probably be a fierce battle.
So Viola sent a large number of engineers and some court mages and priests to see if there were any magic traps. For example, after Viola took over the fortress, some kind of extremely powerful alchemical bomb would explode, blowing up the entire fortress and Viola and her army.
But there was nothing. The people sent to check carefully for a whole day and did not find any problems.
The last battle that Viola thought was ended so senselessly.
This made Viola very uncomfortable. She felt a sense of frustration as if she had put all her strength into it but found that the other party did not fight anymore...
