With the will of the Northern Count enforced, and the Revolutionary Army itself showing willingness to negotiate, the ceasefire was achieved faster than expected.
Of course, the sudden blizzard played a role in this.
After all, the Northern Army had relatively good cold weather measures, and although the colonial garrison was poor, the basic requirements were still met.
On the other hand, the Revolutionary Army, composed mostly of impoverished workers, fought for ideals rather than seeking better treatment.
During previous battles, many fought in thin clothing, braving the severe cold, which led to non-combat casualties for the Revolutionary Army.
If it weren't for the colonial garrison's incompetence and the Revolutionary Army's swift organization of production after capturing the city to provide logistical support, the blizzard might have caused them enormous losses.
