Chapter 7: The Cao army finally launches an attack

Horse urine

Yuan Shang let out a heavy sigh. Cao Cao mentioned that he might arrive in a day or two. This big drink and bun situation, he still hasn't clarified how many soldiers he has under his command. No wonder in the history of the previous life, he lost Wuchao in a single night. With this kind of demeanor, even if he had ten thousand more, it would be futile.

Chunyu Qiong was pinned to the ground, yet he still wore a playful smile, burping from the alcohol and saying: "Nephew, you are being unprofessional here; this move of mine is called 'even distribution of rain and dew,' hahahaha"

With a hostile expression, Yuan Shang walked up to Chunyu Qiong and, filled with frustration, kicked him in the rear, gritting his teeth and saying: "What a good opportunity you had, and you let it slip away. Do you think you own the place like a dog?"

To be more specific, it may not seem like much to look at, but it is quite substantial when consumed

Absolutely awake! Chunyu Qiong nodded emphatically

Yuan Shang also stared blankly for a while, but ultimately, unable to endure due to his thin skin, he ordered a group of guards to pin Chunyu Qiong to the ground

No more drinking, no more drinking

"The Third Young Master is joking; I dare not take it lightly," Chunyu Qiong began to wipe his sweat

Chunyu Qiong hesitated for a moment: "Wine?"

Gently tapping the table, Yuan Shang turned to Chunyu Qiong and asked, "How many soldiers are currently available within Wuchao?"

The lord is certainly aware, which is why he sent this son to come here first to take command, and the reinforcements will arrive in a few days. To avoid causing any other incidents, Yuan Shang told a lie.

Would you like to have another drink?

It seems that someone like Chunyu Qiong cannot be relied upon, so what should we do? We have to depend on ourselves! Who asked us to be stuck with such a troublesome person

"Young Master, I have regained my senses!" Chunyun Qiong, disregarding the dizziness, hurriedly stood up to express his stance

Sui Yuanjin nodded upon hearing this: "The arrangement made by the Third Young Master is feasible. In that case, I shall prepare immediately."

Interestingly, he urinates without hesitation, yet he does not simply finish at one spot. He sprinkles a little in front of one tent, then holds it back, runs with his pants up to another tent, drops a few drops of morning dew, holds it back again, and then hurriedly goes off to find another tent to continue urinating.

Do I still need to call you uncle

Yuan Shang felt a deep sense of suspicion. How could someone as incompetent as Chunyu Qiong have been one of the Eight Commanders of the Western Garden in the capital back then, alongside Yuan Shao and Cao Cao? How much money must he have spent to buy that position?

As the saying goes, wine is a poison that runs through the intestines, and lust is a knife that scrapes the bones. Throughout history, how many talented individuals have lost great opportunities in life due to the confusion brought on by wine and meat, wasting the precious youth of their lives? Some people, having realized their mistakes, deeply detest the indulgence in wine and meat. Others, dismissive of such warnings, continue to lead a dissolute life, ultimately succumbing to the filth of these indulgences, resulting in a tragic and sorrowful end

No!

Yuan Shang stroked his chin and said, "What I mean is, while the Cao army has not yet taken action, we should divide our troops into three parts. One part will remain in the main camp, while the other two will ambush in the mountains and forests on either side of the camp. We will prepare day and night, and dig traps on the main road. If the Cao army approaches, we will launch a three-pronged attack, hitting the front and the rear, creating chaos among them. We will hold out until the reinforcements from our father arrive, at which point we can strike with full force and defeat the Cao army."

Hello, General Chunyu, enjoy your wine and urine

Yuan Shang felt extremely frustrated. He had been running around all day, suffering from illness, trying to resolve the situation at Wuchao, begging and pleading with everyone, seeking help from one person to another. He even took the risk of secretly sending troops to rescue, defying military orders. Meanwhile, the actual commander at Wuchao was sleeping off a drunken night, indulging in excess and running out to relieve himself, marking his territory. We are all human, so why am I in such a miserable situation? Who have I offended?

All the generals in the tent were greatly astonished upon hearing this. The cavalry commander Lu Weihuang hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "I wonder where the spies of the Third Young Master obtained this detailed report. Has the lord been informed about this?"

With such a cowardly Yuan Shao, it is no wonder that he would still be appointed as a general; it is remarkable that Cao Cao has not completely annihilated him

Chunyu Qiong looked up at Yuan Shang, then patted his head as if recalling some fragments from earlier. After a short while, he seemed to remember something, and his mind was suddenly drenched in cold sweat, his eyes filled with fear and unease.

It is evident that Chunyu Qiong does not understand what it means to realize one's mistakes and return to the right path, so today, he is destined to meet with tragedy here

Guo Yuan stared blankly at Chunyu Qiong frolicking around the venue and couldn't help but ask Yuan Shang in astonishment: "Third Young Master, it's just a puddle of urine, yet it can be made into such a spectacle. General Chunyu's face is indeed rather thick, isn't it"

Chunyu Qiong stared blankly, gazing at Yuan Shang, looking as if he were about to succumb to the effects of alcohol again.

Before he could finish speaking, a hurried sound of footsteps was heard from outside the tent. Guo Yuan, drenched in sweat, rushed into the main tent and bowed to Yuan Shang from a distance, urgently saying: "Young Master, something is amiss. The scouts have reported that a cavalry unit is rapidly advancing towards Wuchao along the southeastern road. It is unclear to which army they belong. If what you suspected is true, it is likely that the Cao army is indeed making a swift advance towards us"

I have received reports from my spies that in the past day or two, the Cao army seems to be preparing to launch a surprise attack on Wuchao. I have come here tonight, not for any other reason, but because I am concerned about Wuchao. Therefore, I have brought my troops to discuss strategies with you.

In

Chunyu Qiong cautiously glanced at Yuan Shang and nervously asked, "Are you referring to drinking alcohol or horse urine?"

Today, Chunyu Qiong consumed quite a bit, whether it was wine or horse urine

Upon hearing this, the crowd felt somewhat reassured. After all, the Third Young Master is the most beloved son of the Lord. If there were no special orders, how could he possibly come to Wu Chao in the middle of the night for no reason at all

"May I ask the Third Young Master, since you are aware of the movements of the Cao army, how do you plan to defend Wuchao?" Chunyu Qiong finally spoke a word that resonated with his identity, which deeply moved everyone present

After finishing the drink, the previously jovial and shameless drunkard's face turned pale. He tightly grasped his own throat, feeling increasingly nauseous, and then began to vomit profusely. A large stain quickly spread across the sandy ground, strikingly noticeable.

Good! Yuan Shang turned his head and pointed at Chunyu Qiong, loudly commanding: "Come here!"

A jar of horse urine is neither too much nor too little

When Guo Yuan brought the horse urine, Chunyu Qiong was joyfully running around the camp, pulling down his pants and urinating everywhere

Yuan Shanghong slightly bared her white teeth, revealing a sweet and harmless smile: "What do you think about the book?"

The wine and meat pass through the intestines, which reflects the current languid life of Chunyu Qiong

After a considerable amount of time, Fang Jian saw Yuan Shang moving closer to Chunyu Qiong and quietly asked, "General Chunyu, have you sobered up?"

Seeing this, Sui Yuan, the deputy general under Chunyu Qiong, hurriedly stepped forward to mediate, saying: "Third Young Master, within Wuchao, there are two thousand cavalry, three thousand archers, and five thousand infantry, with a total of approximately ten thousand troops available for deployment"

At this moment, Chunyu Qiong seemed to have regained some composure, nodding while burping and saying, "Indeed, within Wuchao, there are approximately troops and horses, burp—close to 10,000, yes, 10,000."

Amidst the disdainful gazes of the crowd, Chunyu Qiong stood up, patting his head, appearing utterly bewildered, with deep confusion reflected in his eyes, resembling a newborn baby, lost and ignorant.

In his youth, Yuan Shang suddenly turned his head and shouted, "Where is the horse urine?"

# # # # #

Yuan Shang shot him a fierce glance and said, "Come into the tent with me; I have something to discuss with you." After saying this, he turned and walked towards the main camp of Wuchao, followed closely by Chunyu Qiong and the group of generals and lieutenants assisting him in defending Wuchao.

Are you really awake

Guo Yuan immediately held up a wine jar with both hands: "Horse urine is here."

Upon entering the main military tent, I looked up and saw that the ground was covered with wine jars, and the entire tent was filled with the strong aroma of wine and meat
