Chupol - a large city with a population of 600,000 in the southwest of the Holy Hillan Empire.
After the fall of Muhavic Fortress, Chupol became the front line of the southwest battlefield.
In order to compete with the Britannian Empire, which had seized their Muhavic Fortress, after the "Harves" battle, Vahiri transferred a large amount of civilians and a large amount of funds to Chubol to turn Chubol fortress.
Perhaps it was because of the crisis consciousness. The Holy Hillan Empire's actions were surprisingly rapid this time. In just over a month, Chupole had been renovated in a very good manner.
The city of Chuboer now can be called [Chuboer Fortress].
In addition to turning Chubol fortress, Wahili also mobilized a large number of city-guarding equipment in Chubol, and troops from various legions also entered Chubol fortress one by one.
According to information, Chubol Fortress has gathered 30,000 to 50,000 troops, and a continuous stream of troops are still coming to Chubol Fortress.
The primary goal of the "Aurora" offensive, with the purpose of attacking the land of the Holy Xiran Empire and attacking the national strength of the Holy Xiran Empire, is to capture this Chupole Fortress.

After Wahiri decided to transform Chubol fortress, Chubol became the busiest city in the entire Holy Hiran Empire.
Every day, there are a large number of carriages, craftsmen and troops carrying various supplies in and out of Chubol.
At the same time, some people who like to join in the fun came to Chuboer from afar to see the city that will be converted into a fortress.
A group of special "guests" mixed in among the crowds who came to Chuboer to watch the fun and entered Chuboer.
Judging from their clothes and dress, these "guests" are no different from ordinary citizens of the Holy Hillan Empire, and they can speak fluent Xilan language. No matter how they look at it, they seem to be just a group of citizens of the Holy Hillan Empire who are also joining in the fun.
However, compared to where to go lively, the interest of these "guests" is on Chubol himself.
Some of them entered and exited different city gates several times, and their eyes kept looking at the city gates, the structure of the city walls, and the defenders on the city walls.
Some seem to be doing nothing and pace slowly along the city wall casually, but they always "inadvertently" pick out the earth and rocks on the city wall and then quietly stuff them into their pockets.
Some people always like to hang out in important places such as Chubol's warehouses and barracks.
Some hid directly on a hill outside Chuboer, looking at Chuboer in the distance while depicting something.
Some pretended to be beggars and crouched in front of the residences of some important generals, constantly looking at the residences of these generals.
Some were suddenly questioned by Chubol's patrol soldiers, but they were not in a hurry. They answered the patrol soldiers' questions one by one in fluent Xilan. At the same time, they could also take out various things to prove that they were just a farmer living in the nearby rural areas and came to join in the fun.
Every once in a while, these "guests" would evacuate from Chubol one by one, meet in a hidden dense forest outside Chubol, gather the information they collected together, and then send the collected information back to Avalon Fortress...

Britannian Empire, North Frontier, Avalon Fortress, Michael's Knights Headquarters, Operational Command Room.
As spring is getting closer, Su Cheng and others have already begun to formulate a strategy plan for Chupole Fortress.
At this time, there were not many people in the combat command room, only Su Cheng and Willie.
Su Cheng and Willie were reviewing the information they had collected recently, staring at the large map spread in front of them.
"The Holy Hillan Empire has finally made the correct judgment and action this time." Willie smiled bitterly, "I really hope that the Holy Hillan Empire can be as stupid as last time."
After saying that, Willie let out another boring moan:
"This Chubol Fortress is not easy to deal with..."
"...Well." Su Cheng, who was standing beside him, responded softly, "This Chubol Fortress is indeed a perfect building. There are only 164,000 troops participating in the "Aurora" offensive. If we attack Chubol Fortress, the casualties on our side will be very heavy."
According to the information sent back by the scouts, the entire Chubol wall was repaired, increased, and thickened.
According to their progress, Chubol's walls can be fully completed in spring.
By then, Chupol will have a huge city wall up to 9 meters and 12 meters thick.
A size of this kind can run on the city wall.
According to the information spying out by the scouts, Vahiri had already squeezed troops from various armies, and by the spring, Chubol would station 100,000 troops.
Military supplies such as food, arrows, and huge rocks were also continuously transported into Chubol.
Such a city, such a defender's scale, and such material reserves are enough to cope with the long-term trap and continuous attacks of any large army.
When the "Aurora" offensive was launched, Su Cheng's troops had only 164,000 people, which was not much more than Chuboer's defenders. If this force attacked strongly, it would not be able to conquer Chuboer at all.
"From the current situation, the best way to siege the city should be to lure out the defenders of Chupole Fortress."
Willie said in a deep voice to Su Cheng.
"If it is a strong attack, even if all the troops are destroyed, Chuboer's will not be able to be defeated."
"The most feasible method now should be to lure Chuboer's defenders out and then annihilate Chuboer's defenders in the countryside... Hum? Commander, are you listening?"
Willie talked for a long time before he realized that Su Cheng's attention did not seem to be on him.
Su Cheng's attention now seemed to be on the piece of paper in his hand.
"Captain, what are you looking at?" Willie asked Su Cheng.
“…I found a very interesting piece of information.”
After saying that, Su Cheng's left mouth raised slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Then, he handed the paper on his hand to Willie.
Willie took the paper with dense words written by Su Cheng, and then looked at it with a look of ten lines.
After his eyes reached the paper, Willy discovered that the paper contained the information of a famous guard of Chupol.
This guard is a first-class general and his name is [Adair Acheson].
Looking at the person's name, Willy raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Adair Acheson...why does this name look like the name of the Britannians?"
After murmuring like this, Willie continued to look down.
After looking down, Willy realized that this person was really a Britannian.
His parents were Britannians, and for various reasons, they moved their family to the Holy Hillan Empire to settle down.
"...Captain." Willie raised the paper in his hand with confusion, "This is just the information of a famous general in Chubol's defender. It doesn't look special."
