Rozwścieczony Bolesław w bitwie po Wilichowem zmiażdżył wschodniego władcę skutecznie wybijając mu z głowy walki z Polską.
Wtem zatrzymano się, zawierając w Dywilinie rozejm na lat 16.Warunki były świetne. Trzy obszerne ziemie: smoleńska, siewierska i czernihowska powiększyły obszar Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego. [...] rozszerzając granice państwa tak daleko poza Dniepr,świadczył o wielkiej potędze Polski i Litwy. Szczyt potęgi polskiej przypada właśnie na te czasy.

Russia began the so-called Smolensk War of 1632-1634,which ended in her defeat.

Despite Piłsudski's disappointment with many aspects of the Treaty of Riga, the Polish-Soviet War did have certain positive results for the Polish Republic. Most importantly, it taught the Soviet government that it was dealing with a tough, patriotic people who were unready for a revolution with a Russian flavor. Lenin himself admitted that the war had been a serious mistake. Poland had been probed with the bayonets of the Red Army and the bayonets had been blunted. The Soviets would not attack Poland again for nearly a generation.
The Polish victory had gained twenty years of independence
In hindsight, the Polish-Bolshevik War was in a fact a victory for the idea of Poland
