Great Han’s Female General Wei Qiqi - Chapter 80

Chapter 80

Wei Qiqi waved her hands and ordered the soldiers, “Prepare the bows and arrows . When you discover that the nettings have some movement, immediately let loose of the arrows . The Xiongnu above the sand won’t be able to guess that there is a trap under the sand!”

“Yes!” The soldiers seemed to have understood . General Qi was really smart . Looks like the army camp had hope .

When the soldiers who buried the nettings came back, the Xiongnu were already close . From far away the, sand dust were billowing . They were running over very quickly . The sand dust disappeared suddenly, probably because they discovered the blankets in the camp and mistook it for Great Han soldiers . Hence they did not dare to enter recklessly .

“The nettings are moving!” A soldier exclaimed .

“Heed my command, don’t waste arrows . Everyone is in charge of the nettings in front of them . When you see movement, shoot! Don’t panic!” Wei Qiqi changed her hand signal . A soldier released the arrow from the bow and shot it onto the netting . In an instant there was a muffled sound and there was no longer any movement .

The Xiongnu underneath the sand were great in numbers . However they all fell in the nettings . Those above didn’t understand what was happening and their numbers dwindled . Hence they did not dare act recklessly . Both sides thus fell into a stalemate, they were checking each other’s situation .

“They are temporarily not going through the sand and will probably attack at night . At that time, the desert will be dark and we won’t be able to see the movement in the nettings . ”

“General Qi, we see that they still have about 50-60 people . What should we do if they attack us at night?”

“We killed about 100 over people . With so little people left, they would not be much of a threat anymore . We have about 150 people, even if we get into a brawl we may not lose!” Wei Qiqi looked at the sky . The Xiongnu didn’t move for such a long time, she probably guessed right . The Xiongnu were going to take action at night, and herself was put into a passive stance .

Wei Qiqi stood up and returned to the big tent vexed . She sat for a while, then left again . A few soldiers followed her wherever she went . Their motive was no longer to look after her, but to hope that General Qi would have a great idea to deal with the Xiongnu . They were staring at Wei Qiqi, causing her to feel even worse .

“The sky is darkening . Light up all the torches, then get the soldiers to bring everything that can produce sounds . The louder the better!”

The soldiers no longer asked Wei Qiqi why . General Qi’s planning always had it’s logic . They lit up all the torches and brought out all the drums and metal, sitting in the camp and began making loud sounds .

In an instant the Great Han army camp was in a rumble . The Xiongnu from far originally intended to do a sneak attack at night . However when they heard the loud noises and see the flaming torches, they were somewhat uncertain . Why is the Great Han camp so boisterous, how many people would they actually meet? They couldn’t estimate at this moment .

Wei Qiqi brought out the only fish oil barrel . It was really not easy to obtain this thing in the desert . She sat outside of the big tent and began making the last fish oil bomb . Qiqi was making it at one side and was upset at the same time . She may not be able to live through this episode . The Xiongnu were vicious by nature . These 100 plus soldiers from Great Han were not a match for them .

Within one to two hours, the Xiongnu would definitely find that something was amiss . They would surely attack . If they razed the campground and rations, Liu Zhongtian would come back to nothing . The big army would then die in the desert .

This barrel of fish oil must explode in the middle of the Xiongnu in order to drive them away . Wei Qiqi couldn’t send her soldiers to death, hence the only person who could go was herself . This Great Han world didn’t belong to her in the first place . Maybe with this explosion, the high energy could possibly send her back . Even if she couldn’t be sent back, this explosion would end everything in an instant .
