Concurrent to the operation in Florence, other Icenians trapped a section of Gang Shi's northern iceroad heading through the -,- and created a section that could be easily closed off to prevent escape. Later in the day on December 9th, Emperor of Gang Shi [[Jbblocker]] was spotted coming up the iceroad, and the iceroad was sealed on opposite ends, trapping him inside. Jbblocker logged out before he could be combat tagged. Attempts to free him by XxTBxX3276, UghBraces, loo_wee_gee, and 7Joshhh were driven off and Jbblocker was entombed within a fortified logbox. Following the battle, most fighters moved to the city of Altepetl upon server restart.
=== Siege of Altepetl ===
At approximately 11 p.m. EST on December 9th, Gang Shi forces began an skybridge assault on Altepetl, the capital of Yoahtl. [[Toaxbis]] was initially shot off the skybridge by defenders, resulting in the first pearl of the war. Yoahtl player [[Spoonce]] was later killed due to a bowshot from the attacking skybridge, but [[DiamondVictor]] didn't have a pearl on his hotbar, and Spoonce escaped being trapped in the nether. Additionally, Gang Shi fighter IbisMan dropped TNT minecarts onto DGP forces killing but not pearling two.

[[TheRealJewy]] was trapped in a 3 deep obsidian pit on the skybridge, where [[Shadno]] attempted to jump in and fight him in the enclosed space before being pearled. Icenian fighters, including [[Lagiacrus]] and [[Auqust]], quickly moved to secure Jewy, and were able to footgrind him along with 4 other Gang Shi fighters ([[Highroll]], [[SirFrenchie_]], [[realmichael]], and DiamondVictor) who attempted to rescue him from the situation. Shadno was then freed by Lagiacrus.
By 4 a.m., the main assault had been repulsed.
