The war between the Lampari Kingdom and the Sack Kingdom attracted the attention of everyone in the Sines.
Before the war officially began, there were many people who had made predictions and analyses of the results of this war.
For most people, they would lean towards the Lampari Kingdom, thinking that the Lampari Kingdom had a higher chance of winning.
When the war between the two countries began, facts proved that their predictions were correct. The Lampari Kingdom had the advantage.
However, no one would have thought that the Lampari Kingdom's advantage over the Sack Kingdom would be this clear.
The battle between the two sides in the Muerto Mountains was between the northern army that was known as the strongest in the Lampuri Kingdom and the Hungry Wolf Regiment that was known as the strongest in the Sack Kingdom with the most military magic machines.
Countless people were interested in this battle because this was the first time that two armies equipped with military magic machines had fought in the Sines, so it had a lot of reference value.
Before this, the military magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had already been demonstrated in the Kingdom of Ruhr when they repelled the Kandla Empire's two invasions, receiving the attention of countless countries.
The Sack Kingdom had also announced that they had the ability to mass produce military magic machines and they had also demonstrated the powerful battle strength of their military magic machines when they invaded the Antila Kingdom.
So in this battle, everyone wanted to see if the military magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were stronger or if the Sack Kingdom's were better.
Most people felt that the military magic machines produced by the New Flyer were stronger since the New Flyer had invested more time in them.
However, when the two sides really started fighting, the truth still gave everyone a shock.
The Sack Kingdom's Hungry Wolf Regiment had been in a short stalemate with the Lampari Kingdom's northern army in the Muerto Mountains for the first four days of the battle, but they had been defeated without any suspense. They couldn't resist the attacks of the Lampari Kingdom's northern army at all.
In just half a month after the battle began, the vanguard of the Lampari Kingdom's northern army was like a hot knife through butter as they reached the Sack Kingdom's capital, Lordaeron City.
Although this vanguard was only a small army of several hundred people, letting an enemy army come all the way to their capital and leave without any losses, this was without a doubt a great shame to the Sack Kingdom.
However, the Sack Kingdom couldn't do anything about this shame.
On the battlefield, the Hungry Wolf Regiment and the Polar Bear Regiment couldn't stop the advance of the Lampari Kingdom's northern army at all.
No matter how strong their defenses were, under the fierce attacks of the northern army's Magic Cannons, they couldn't even hold it for an hour.
In just half a month after the battle began, the Sack Kingdom's army had lost over thirty thousand people. Even the Polar Bear Regiment that they were proud of that was equipped with large amounts of military magic machines that could compete with the New Flyer's guards had lost most of their battle strength.
Seeing that the northern army's main force had already reached Lordaeron City and they couldn't stop them at all, the Sack Kingdom finally took the initiative to ask the Lampari Kingdom for peace on the twenty sixth day of the battle. The Lampari Kingdom had surprisingly agreed to this.
Following this, the two countries sent out representatives for peace talks that lasted for half a month.
There weren't many people who knew the specifics, but according to the information that the Lampari Kingdom released through the « Lampari Weekly », the Sack Kingdom had paid a very painful price in the peace talks to have the Lampari Kingdom sign the ceasefire agreement.
The « Lampari Weekly » didn't reveal the details of this price, but just the few that were announced were already shocking.
First, the Sack Kingdom ceded seven cities in the southern province and the southeast province that belonged to them to the Lampari Kingdom.
These seven cities were close to the border between the two countries and they were connected to each other. The total area was over twenty thousand square kilometers, which wasn't small at all.
The border between the two countries was the Muerto Mountain Range, so both sides used this mountain range as a natural defense. But now that the Sack Kingdom had ceded the seven southern cities to the Lampari Kingdom, the Sack Kingdom had lost their natural southern defense.
The Lampari Kingdom's military was clearly stronger than the Sack Kingdom's, so this was equal to the Sack Kingdom stripping themselves naked. They had exposed themselves in front of the Lampari Kingdom, so they couldn't resist at all.
Second, the Sack Kingdom gave the Lampari Kingdom a total of twenty million gold coins as war compensation.
Of course this compensation wasn't all in cash. In order to pay this compensation, the Sack Kingdom had opened up countless minerals, lumber, herbs, and other resources to the Lampari Kingdom.
Third, the Sack Kingdom would completely open up their access to the Lampari Kingdom.
This meant that any person or caravan from the Lampari Kingdom wouldn't need to be checked when they entered the Sack Kingdom, just like when they entered and left the Lampari Kingdom.
Of course, the Lampari Kingdom had already abolished the entrance tax for the various cities, so the Sack Kingdom's cities also couldn't collect entrance taxes.
On this, the « Lampuri Weekly » had specially pointed out a very special place. It was that while the Sack Kingdom was completely open to the Lampari Kingdom, they were also completely open to the New Flyer.
This was something that was very easy for people to understand.
This was because everyone knew that the New Flyer was the most important supporter of the Lampari Kingdom behind the scenes. The Lampari Kingdom had obtained many benefits from winning this war, so the New Flyer wouldn't be polite.
Now that the New Flyer was only asking the Sack Kingdom to completely open up to them, in everyone's eyes, this condition was already too relaxed.
After both sides signed the ceasefire agreement, the northern army retreated from the Sack Kingdom, but they didn't return to the Lampari Kingdom. Rather they were stationed in the seven cities that the Sack Kingdom had ceded to the Lampari Kingdom.
They were here to supervise the Sack Kingdom's management of these seven cities, while waiting for the Lampari Kingdom to send people to take over these seven cities.
Moreover, the northern army's garrison would be set up here in the future.
This was because the border between the two countries was no longer the Muerto Mountains, but rather the border between these seven cities and the other cities of the Sack Kingdom.
After another month, a delegation set off from the Lampari Kingdom and headed north, arriving in the Sack Kingdom's capital, Lordaeron City three days later.
This delegation was sent by the Lampari Kingdom's queen Seveni, they were here to sign the ceasefire agreement with the Sack Kingdom.
They were here to discuss the final details of the ceasefire agreement with the Sack Kingdom before finally signing it. They were expected to stay in Lordaeron City for around half a month.
When they entered Rotterdam City, a small team left the residence of the delegation, and went straight to the military magic machine research institute that belonged to the kingdom's magic research institute in the west of Rotterdam City.
This small group didn't belong to the Lampari Kingdom's delegation, rather they were people sent by the New Flyer.
Their goal for coming here was because in the ceasefire agreement between the two countries, the New Flyer had requested the Sack Kingdom to hand over some researchers from the military magic machine research facility, so they were here to receive these people.
Seeing these people wearing the uniform of the New Flyer charge in, Great Magician Mayev who was in charge of the research facility naturally didn't have a good expression.
"You want us to give people to you?
Impossible! "Mayev stopped them without any courtesy, speaking in a very impolite tone.
"Great Magician Mayev, this is something your country has already agreed on in the ceasefire agreement, you don't have the right to stop us."
The one leading the team this time was miss Fayvin who had been promoted from the manager of the magic machine development workshop to the manager of the New Flyer headquarters. Faced with Great Magician Mayev stopping her, she didn't panic at all and calmly stated this fact to Great Magician Mayev.
"That agreement was signed by those bastards at the Royal Parliament, it has nothing to do with us!" Great Magician Mayev still refused to let them in.
Great Magician Mayev still refused to give up, "Our Academy of Magic people aren't managed by the kingdom's parliament, they don't have the right to hand us over!"
Actually, the reason why Great Magician Mayev was this angry was mainly because of his hesitation from before.
When the Lampari Kingdom and the Sa Er Kingdom were fighting, the army had asked for the help of seven Great Magicians including him.
At that time, Great Magician Mayev used the reason that he was focused on researching more powerful military magic machines to reject them, so he couldn't help.
Then there were five other Great Magicians who participated in the battle against the Lampari Kingdom, but according to the news that came back, even with these five Great Magicians, they couldn't defeat the Lampari Kingdom's army on the battlefield.
There was even a battle where a Great Magician tried to sink a Magic Airship of the Lampari Kingdom's northern army, but he was surrounded by five Magic Airships and fell in the end.
It was because of the fall of this Great Magician that the Sack Kingdom's last bit of faith in resistance was destroyed. It made the king and the kingdom's parliament agree to take the initiative to negotiate.
After learning about the fall of that Great Magician, Great Magician Mayev felt a bit sad, but he also felt happy.
He was very happy that he didn't participate in the battle, otherwise if he had fallen, it would have been irreparable.
At the same time, because of this, he felt a bit guilty.
So when faced with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce that was the main culprit that caused the death of his fellow Great Magician, Great Magician Mayev was filled with rage.
However, Feidin didn't care about him at all. She shook her head and calmly said, "Great Magician Mayev, I have to remind you.
Although you don't have to listen to the Sack Kingdom's parliament, you don't have the right to stop others from choosing. "
Great Magician Mayev was surprised, "What do you mean by this?
Could it be that you want to say that my subordinates will take the initiative to go to your New Flyer? "
Feidin revealed a faint smile on her calm face as she pointed behind him, "You can ask them for their opinions."
Great Magician Mayev was surprised again. He turned around in a daze and saw that a group of subordinates from the military magic machine research facility had gathered behind him at an unknown time.
These people looked at Feidin with eyes filled with anticipation and excitement, there wasn't any disgust or hatred at all.
