Chapter 1179 Prelude, Little Ice Age!
Chapter 1179
The door opened, and Zhang Shouzhi came in from the door in gray clothes:
"Master Hou, it's the appointed time, and we need to send an order."
"Everything goes according to plan."
Wang Chong was silent for a moment, then nodded immediately. Regardless of whether that event happened as scheduled or not, Wang Chong had to make complete preparations, and it was already close to midnight. If that event really came, but he didn't have sufficient preparations, he might be caught off guard.
"Understood, I will make arrangements now."
Zhang Shouzhi nodded, and quickly exited Wang Chong's room. And just a moment later, the originally peaceful city of Khorasan was full of people and noisy.
...
At this moment, there was only the big cannibal camp across the river, and hundreds of thousands of big cannibal troops were packed in black, without making a sound. The night is cold, even the sneezes from the war horses are white, and the weather is getting colder and colder. This winter seems to be much colder than previous winters, but for the Dashi soldiers who practice martial arts, it is still within the tolerance range. Inside.
Although the cold air is heavy, the evil spirit of the hundreds of thousands of food troops is even heavier. Right at the forefront of the entire barracks, all the generals of Dashi gathered together, staring at the tall and majestic Khorasan city in the distance. For the army, apart from conquering the city and killing the Tang people, Khorasan people and rebels inside, everything else is not important.
"boom!"
Suddenly a noisy sound came from Khorasan City, and this sudden change immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"what happened?"
At the forefront of the crowd, Fadi, the head of the black obsidian, raised his head abruptly, looking at the Khorasan city in front of him.
"My lord, are these Tang people going to attack?"
An adjutant next to him said.
"impossible!"
Before the adjutant could finish speaking, a thick voice came from the side, and Feralas, the blood of Obsidian, shook his head and vetoed without hesitation:
"The armies of the Tang people and the Khorasan people are simply not enough to launch an active attack on us, and once they launch an attack, the Tigris River will also become a huge obstacle for them. Forcibly attacking is tantamount to suicide."
"But, what do they want to do?"
Hural, the white corpse of the empire, also said, several people stood side by side, their expressions fluctuating.
The movements in the city of Khorasan were really weird. From the perspective of everyone, the lights there were brightly lit and streams of fire went straight to the sky, but the gates of Khorasan were closed tightly, with no sign of opening.
Time passed slowly, and all the soldiers were ordered to stand ready to deal with any possible emergencies. But in Khorasan City, except that it was hotter and brighter, everything was the same as before, and even the noisy human voices quickly dimmed.
"What the hell are these guys doing?"
In the dark camp of Dashi, a general of Dashi murmured to himself, expressing everyone's aspirations in one sentence. Even powerful governors like Fadi, Firas, and Hural can't help being confused. They can't figure out what kind of medicine is sold in Tangren's gourd. If Tangren is not prepared to attack, there will be such a big commotion What the hell is it for.
"Pass down the order, the army is on full alert, and the others rest on the spot. In addition, prepare to attack the city at dawn!"
Fadi said in a deep voice.
A word quickly spread throughout the army.
...
In Khorasan City, everything quickly calmed down.
Wang Chong sat motionless in the room. Several hours had passed, and what Wang Chong was waiting for still hadn't happened. Apart from being colder, there was no abnormality in the entire Khorasan city.
Before he knew it, it was already midnight, and Wang Chong's brows gradually frowned.
"Impossible, could it be that my calculation is wrong, that thing will not happen!"
Wang Chong's face was calm, but his heart gradually felt a little uneasy. If there were no accidents, the thing I was expecting should have happened, but Wang Chong has not seen any signs so far.
The rebirth of the two lives, because of my own reasons, many things have undergone great changes and huge deviations. King Song was not demoted, Southwest was not lost, Talas not only did not fail, but won instead, everything was completely different from the memory. Could it be that that matter was completely changed because of his intervention?
Unknowingly, Wang Chong's frown became tighter and tighter. If that incident disappeared due to his own reasons, then after dawn, Datang would face hundreds of thousands of Dashi troops on the other side of the Tigris River. Generals, and more reinforcements to follow. As Bahram said, this is a small force against the entire empire. This will be an unprecedented fierce battle, and the winning rate is slim.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wang Chong unconsciously felt a little restless and anxious. He almost subconsciously picked up the teacup on the table and prepared to take a sip.
However, just as he brought it to his mouth, Wang Chong immediately heard a crackling sound. The sound was inaudible, but it fell on Wang Chong's ears like thunder.
Wang Chong's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously looked down. The next moment, something surprising happened. In the teacup, on the surface of the calm tea, a thin layer of ice was covering the entire surface at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the frost was spreading continuously, rapidly deepening and thickening.
Phew, a gust of cold wind blows in through the slightly opened door. Where the cold wind blew past, in the room, a layer of hoarfrost formed on the walls at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the teacup in Wang Chong's palm was covered with a layer of fine frost particles.
"ah!"
Outside the door, there were exclamations in the night, but they disappeared after a while.
"coming!"
Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat, as if he understood something, he turned his head abruptly, strode to the door, and opened it with a creak.
"Boom!"
At this moment, it was as if he had entered another world from one world. The endless wind and snow rushed towards his face. Wang Chong's body was immediately covered with a thin layer of hoarfrost, even on his hair and the tip of his nose. Outside the door, the flames were blazing. Wang Chong had asked Zhang Shouzhi, Fergana and others, as well as all the artisans who accompanied the army, to ignite many flames in the city of Khorasan. The furnaces continuously spewed into the sky. thick smoke.
The heat emitted by these stoves and fires is connected together, making the night sky in Khorasan less cold, but now, all the flames seem to be suppressed by an invisible force, and the light of each stove quickly dims .
Phew, a gust of wind and frost swept past, and a dozen steps away from Wang Chong, a furnace fire was instantly extinguished and frozen. The original heating iron furnace quickly became icy cold, and then a layer of white frost was covered on the surface. One place, two places, three places... the moment Wang Chong stepped out of the room, more and more fires suddenly went out.
In such a short period of time, the temperature between the sky and the earth dropped by more than ten degrees, and it was still dropping at an astonishing speed. As far as Wang Chong could see, a layer of white frost was covering the ground at an astonishing speed. The wind and snow were howling, and the eyes were soon covered in white.
"Xi Yuyu!"
In just a few moments, Wang Chong suddenly heard Xi Yuyu's neighing of horses and the screams of soldiers in the distance. Across the walls of Khorasan and the Tigris River, the cannibal's camp was in turmoil.
"Wang Chong, you are here!"
At this moment, a familiar voice came from beside the ear, Gao Xianzhi striding forward from the wind and snow in armor:
"The weather has changed and the temperature is dropping rapidly. This kind of weather may be very unfavorable to us!"
Behind him, Cheng Qianli, Xi Yuanqing, Lou Shiyi and others also walked over.
"It's a big snowstorm. When we came over, we saw that the city wall was already frozen. Lord Protector, what should we do next?"
Cheng Qianli also spoke.
The snowstorm came too suddenly, and the cooling process was very rapid, and it continued to drop. Even Cheng Qianli felt something was wrong, let alone other people.
——The temperature drops too fast, not one or two degrees, but a drop of more than ten degrees. If this continues, ordinary soldiers will soon be unable to bear it.
"Haha, don't worry, I've already made preparations. This big drop in temperature is a blessing rather than a disaster for us!"
Unexpectedly, Wang Chong not only did not have the slightest worry when he heard the words of the crowd, but instead had a look of joy. He turned his head abruptly, looking somewhere in the night with deep meaning in his eyes. Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli and the others were startled for a moment, and then subconsciously followed Wang Chong's gaze. When they saw the direction of Wang Chong's gaze, their bodies shook, and they seemed to understand something in an instant.
Blizzard!
This is certainly a trouble for the Tang people, Sasanians, and rebels inside the city, but it is a real disaster for the hundreds of thousands of Dashi troops outside the city camped in the open air without any shelter.
At this moment, everyone suddenly understood.
"...So Wang Chong, is this the opportunity you are referring to?"
Gao Xianzhi and Wang Chong stood side by side, looking at the endless wind and snow and the ever-thickening white frost between the sky and the earth, he suddenly spoke.
"Um."
Wang Chong nodded. The blizzard he was looking forward to had finally arrived, and there was no need to hide anything.
Little Ice Age!
Wang Chong looked at the indifferent snowstorm in the sky, and a thought suddenly flashed in his eyes. Apart from himself, including Gao Xianzhi, Bahram and others, I am afraid that no one knows what the snowstorm means.
This was no ordinary snowstorm at all, nor any ordinary severe winter. "When a country is about to perish, there must be evildoers." Before any catastrophe, there must be signs and visions. Not long ago, the black solar eclipse that appeared above the city of Talas was the beginning of this catastrophe.
And the large-scale blizzard in front of him was just the first trial before the catastrophe officially broke out.
