Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

Splashing water into ice, in the cold winter, whether it is scalding hot water or biting cold water, as long as it is poured on the ground, it will not take long for the water to completely condense into ice.

After the outer fortresses were captured by the Condor Army, in order to delay the progress of the Condor Army's siege, the demon defenders of Han City poured water from the well directly on the ground outside the city.

The snow mixed with cold water quickly froze in sub-zero temperatures.

By the time the main force of the Condor Army advanced outside Hancheng, it was already a world of ice.

Whether it is on the ground or on the city wall, there is a layer of ice hanging on it.

Under the sunlight, the irregular ice surface randomly reflects light in all directions, making it impossible to look directly at.

Looking at the icy world in front of him, Ning Yuan suddenly felt a coldness on his forehead.

For the enemy's fortifications arranged by the power of nature, Ning Yuan has no good way. He can only order the soldiers to clear the ice on the ground first.

If the ground is not cleared for a day, they will not be able to attack the city, because people can't stand on the slippery ice, and if they attack the city on solid ice, isn't that courting death?

After the hammers and pickaxes were urgently transported from the rear to the front line, the strong orc warriors immediately swung their arms and started working. In just half a day, they cleared out all the places far away from the city wall.

Just when everyone was preparing to clean up the ice under Hancheng with all their might on the second day, the demon defenders stationed in Hancheng gave a vivid physics lesson to the Condor Army outside the city, taught them What do they mean by splashing water into ice, and what do they mean by endless life.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong. The enemy on the top of the city is pouring water on the city wall."

After dinner, Ning Yuan lay down early, but not long after he lay down, the night scouts rushed to him.

Hearing the scout's report, Ning Yuan rubbed his hands and got out of the warm bed.

After putting on his coat, Ning Yuan immediately led a team of guards to Hancheng.

When he came outside Hancheng, he was so angry by the scene in front of him that he clenched his steel teeth.

At this time, the city wall of Han City was brightly lit, and countless demon warriors were constantly transporting buckets of well water to the city wall, and then dumped it directly along the ice layer on the outside of the city wall.

Because there is ice everywhere under the city walls, the water cannot penetrate the ground in time, so they begin to flow down the ice surface.

The winter night is colder than the day, and the cold water flows and starts to freeze.

In this way, part of the water turns into ice on the original ice layer, making the ice layer thicker.

The other part of the water continued to flow forward, and soon flowed to the ground cleared by the Condor Army during the day, and then re-frozen there.

As the cold water kept pouring down from the city wall, soon, the land outside the city turned into a world of ice again.

The ground that the Condor Army had finally cleared during the day was covered with ice again, and as more and more water poured down on the city wall, the ice was even spreading to the surroundings without stopping.

Seeing that the water flowed to his feet, Ning Yuan could only return to the barracks with his guards.

The demon defenders in Hancheng told the Condor Army outside through practical actions that it was a daydream to break the ice. They either stepped on the solid ice to attack the city, or got out as soon as possible.

As long as the wells in the city do not dry up, their tactics of splashing water into ice will not stop.

And Hancheng is adjacent to the Yellow River in the east, and there are several small rivers flowing into the Yellow River from west to east. There are abundant groundwater resources here. Unless it suffers from a drought that has never happened in a thousand years, there will never be water shortage here.

So if Ning Yuan can't think of any practical and effective solution, then he really won't be able to attack the city this winter.

Sitting in the tent all night, Ning Yuan couldn't think of any good countermeasures.

Facing this kind of great power of nature, it is really too difficult to defy the sky with human power alone.

Now Ning Yuan finally knows why the ancients didn't like to march and fight in the cold winter, because in the cold winter, their main enemy has quietly changed from human beings to nature.

If they want to defeat the enemy, they must first overcome the obstacles brought to them by nature.

This is the case in Hancheng now.

The main enemy of the Condor Army is no longer the demon defenders in the city, but the cold weather here and a series of natural phenomena caused by the cold weather.

If you want to attack the city, the biggest difficulty now is how to remove all the ice outside the city before the enemy pours water into ice, so as not to give the enemy the opportunity to continue to use the mighty power of nature.

If the defenders in the city are not demon legions, then Ning Yuan can also send flying legions to forcibly attack the city.

However, the defenders in the city happened to be the demon army, so this immediately became an unsolvable problem.

"Hey."

After realizing that it was dawn outside, Ning Yuan shook his head, sighed heavily, and then slowly walked out of the tent.

After washing his face with cold water and refreshing himself, Ning Yuan casually took a piece of scone from the guard, biting absently while walking towards Hancheng unknowingly.

When he came to a place seven or eight hundred meters away from Hancheng, Ning Yuan stopped.

Glancing at the ice under his feet, and then at the city wall covered with icicles in the distance, Ning Yuan fell into deep thought.

 …

"The enemy is determined to turn the entire city into an ice city. Now we can't get in, and they can't get out. Do you think they are not afraid of being trapped in a cocoon and trapping themselves alive?"

"What do you know?

Since the enemy dares to act like this, it means that there must be enough food in the city.

And this should be their tactic to slow down the troops, the purpose is to prevent us from breaking the city before the reinforcements arrive. "

"Well, what Lao Wu said is reasonable, this is indeed the enemy's plan to delay the attack.

Think about it, the tactics of this ice city can only be used in the cold winter. When the spring is warm and the temperature rises, the ice will directly turn into water.

Obviously, the enemy wants to delay this winter first. "

"Is there any solution to it?"

"If there is, His Majesty won't have to sit in the tent overnight.

Didn't you see that His Majesty and those generals all frowned this morning?

I guess we can only besiege Hancheng temporarily, and we can only attack the city when the ice melts in Kaichun. "

"Hey, there is no other way, who knows that in this winter, God is the best.

Just let the enemies in the city live for a few more months. As for the reinforcements, I'm afraid they won't be able to wait in their lifetime. "

"These bastards can live for a while longer. Pity the army that came to rescue them. They met the two ace legions of our Condor Empire, hahaha..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, didn't you see that His Majesty is contemplating?

If you interrupt His Majesty's thoughts, be careful that His Majesty punishes you to mine in Siberia. "

 …

While Ning Yuan was meditating, a group of soldiers in charge of transporting deicing tools chattered softly during their break.

Although their voices were very soft, they were still heard by Ning Yuan with sharp ears.

At first, Ning Yuan didn't pay too much attention to the soldiers' unnutritive chat, but when several people mentioned the word Bingcheng intentionally or unintentionally, a light suddenly flashed in Ning Yuan's mind.

"Ice City, Ice City, since you can't fight against the power of nature, why don't you take advantage of the trend and turn Han City into an ice city?"

"Anyway, the enemy's reinforcements can't break through the blockade of the Barbarian Legion and the Dwarf Blue Sheep Knights. Why should I be obsessed with breaking the city immediately?"

After thinking through all this, a complete plan immediately appeared in Ning Yuan's mind.

"Come here, send a pot of stew to the soldiers of that team, and say that I treat them to eat, hahahahahahaha."

After thinking of the strategy to break the city, Ning Yuan's face suddenly blossomed with joy. In a good mood, he directly asked someone to give a small compliment to the team of soldiers who inspired him.

 …

Back at the camp, after happily eating a large bowl of stewed meat, Ning Yuan directly arranged for his men to prepare various utensils and supplies.

At the same time, in order not to make the enemies of Hancheng suspicious, Ning Yuan continued to send a team of orc warriors to clear the ice.

Looking at the Condor Army outside the city who were working hard to clear the ice, the demon warriors on the city wall couldn't help showing mocking expressions.

This group of two hundred and five, you are full and panicking, but please don't hurt others, okay?

MD, I have to fetch water and pour ice overnight again tonight.

In this way, the Condor Army cleared away another large piece of ice outside Hancheng under the taunt of the demon warriors in Hancheng.

As the sky darkened, the soldiers of the Condor Army, who had been wielding hammers and pickaxes for a day, withdrew to the camp, while countless torches were lit on the top of the city of Hancheng. After dinner, the demon warriors started a new round. icing action.

"Water it, water it, the more you water it, the happier you will be in a while!"

Ning Yuan, who was hiding in the dark, looked at the busy figure at the top of the city, while secretly mocking there.

While the demon warriors in Hancheng were busy watering, teams of Condor soldiers were busy behind the ice and snow piles they had been working on during the day.

In order to clear the space for setting up the camp, the Condor Army piled a lot of snow on one side of the camp.

Originally, these snow and crushed ice were useless, but after Ningyuan came up with a countermeasure, they immediately became an important strategic resource.

During the day, the Condor Army has already built a large number of stoves near the snowdrifts.

As the sky gradually darkened, they first piled up a large amount of charcoal near the stove, and then put the huge bath barrel that had just been made on top of the stove.

These bath barrels have wooden barrel walls on the top, and the bottom of the barrel below is temporarily transformed from a large iron pot.

After the soldiers placed the vat on the stove, they immediately lit the firewood under the stove.

As the stove ignited, the soldiers began to pour ice and snow into the barrels non-stop.

After the ice and snow are heated, they begin to melt gradually.

As more and more snow and ice melted, the water level in the barrel began to rise continuously.

When the water level rose to the point where it was connected to the bamboo tube, the overflowing hot water immediately flowed down the bamboo tube to a nearby frozen river.

As more and more hot water flowed onto the ice, the frozen river began to gradually melt.

The Condor Army built a total of hundreds of such stoves by the river, and forcibly used hot water to melt the entire river.

"Okay, brothers, let's get into the water and let the enemy feel the ice rain."

After seeing the river melt, Ning Yuan took the lead in taking off his clothes, and when he was left with only one piece of underwear made of dragon silk, he sat down in the melting river.

Driven by Ning Yuan, hundreds of players of the Flood Dragon Warrior also took off their clothes and entered the water one after another, and then began to spread the rain.

Hundreds of people lined the clouds to spread the rain together, and all the water in the small river was drained at once.

The evacuated river water quickly formed a rain cloud over Hancheng, and then turned into a rapid shower when the demon warriors did not respond.

Since it was dark night, the demon warriors in Hancheng focused most of their attention on carrying and watering water, so no one noticed the dark clouds that suddenly appeared over Hancheng.

So when the rain cloud suddenly turned into raindrops, they were caught off guard.

Due to the amount of water, the shower stopped after less than ten minutes, but it brought a huge disaster to Hancheng.

As the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees at night, the rain began to freeze quickly after it hit the ground, so in just a few minutes, Hancheng completely turned into an ice city.

Whether it is a stone street or an earthy ground, a layer of slippery ice is hung on it.

Even those demon warriors who got wet before taking shelter from the rain were covered with a layer of icicles.

When the whole city of Hancheng was frozen due to the sudden shower, a series of serious consequences soon appeared.

Countless demon warriors slipped and fell due to the icy ground, and the buckets they were carrying fell to the ground.

When the cold well water in the bucket spilled all over the ground, the situation on the ground became even worse. Some unlucky demon warriors were directly poured with cold water, and fell to the ground shivering.

The first reaction of many demon fighters after a fall is to try to get up, but because the wet clothes on their bodies have already frozen, it is difficult for them to find a way to get up after the fall.

Many demon fighters just stood up and wanted to get up, but then suddenly fell down because their hands and feet slipped.

After failing to get up several times in a row, the demon warriors could only crawl on the ice, struggling to climb towards the nearby buildings.

Although the bodies of the demon warriors were very resistant, they couldn't bear to crawl on the ice with their bodies dripping wet on such a cold night.

Some demon fighters who crawled into the surrounding houses in time were better. They immediately took off their frozen clothes after entering the house, and then gathered around the warm fire pit to regain the lost temperature in time.

And those demon fighters who are far away from buildings that can heat themselves are out of luck.

When they crawled exhausted to a place where they could keep warm, the heat in their bodies had almost dissipated, and in the end they didn't even have the strength to take off their icy clothes.

If the other demon warriors hadn't helped them take off their wet clothes and placed them near the firepit in time, they might have frozen to death.

Although these demon warriors were lucky enough to recover their lives, they also suffered from a serious illness. For the demon clan who rarely get sick, this is unbelievable like a fantasy.

The shower, which lasted less than ten minutes, cast a heavy shadow of death on the demon army stationed in Hancheng.

In an army of 100,000 demons, more than 7,000 people froze to death overnight, and more than 40,000 people fell ill, directly reducing the number of non-combat personnel by half.

If this kind of icy rain falls a few more times, the enemies outside will not have to take the initiative to attack the city. They may have been frozen to death in the sealed city.

Suddenly, a feeling of despair and pessimism enveloped the entire Hancheng.
