One kick to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 117 Turning around Luo Yang
Under everyone's concerned eyes, Qin Yi ate five noodle cakes in a row before he stopped eating.

The bread that Sun Jian brought over was the dry food for the march, and it was big and hard.Ordinary people would be full after eating two, but Qin Yi actually ate five in one go, which made everyone feel deeply about his appetite.

"Tianyu, when did your appetite become so big?" Sun Jian asked Qin Yi in surprise.

At this time, although Qin Yi was still weak all over, he still had the strength to speak.He then said: "The martial art I practice is a bit evil. When I meet a strong opponent, it can explode to its fullest potential, but it also overdraws my physical strength. Don't worry, I'm out of strength. Eat more. Just rest for a while."

"There is such a strange martial art in the world!?" Sun Jian asked curiously.

Cao Cao smiled and said: "Wentai, Tianyu had an adventure outside the Great Wall. There are already too many surprising things about him."

"That's true!" Sun Jian nodded, "Let's not talk about it remotely, let's just talk about today's battle with Lu Bu. I am still puzzled at this moment. Tian Yu actually defeated Lu Bu!"

Hearing Sun Jian talk about Lu Bu, Cao Cao frowned and asked Sun Jian: "Wentai, Lu Bu was defeated by Tian Yu. He must have been so ashamed that he withdrew his troops. Should we continue the pursuit?"

Sun Jian thought for a while, then smiled wryly, "Meng De, Tianyu's ability to defeat Lu Bu does not mean that our army can defeat the Bingzhou Army. A certain person thinks that even if you and I continue to pursue, we will not be able to break through Lu Bu's defense and catch up with Dong Zhuo. "

Cao Cao nodded and said with deep conviction, "Yes, this pursuit is meaningless."

"Brother, if we just withdraw to Luoyang, won't we be ridiculed by other princes?" Cao Hong interrupted and said.

"Hmph, except for Wentai and our army, the princes of the Kanto are begging for Dong. The rest are afraid of the enemy and have no record. They also have the face to laugh at us?" Cao Cao looked cold and snorted coldly.

At this moment, a horse rushed out from the side of the military formation and galloped towards it.

Everyone took a closer look, but it was a soldier wearing Yuan Shaojun's armor.A black flag was planted on the back of this soldier, apparently the messenger of Yuan Shao's army.

"Report--General Sun, General Cao, Alliance Leader Yuan has an order, ordering you to lead the army back to Luoyang immediately."

The messenger came up close, dismounted from his horse, bowed his hands to Sun Jian and Cao Cao and said.

Sun Jian and Cao Cao looked at each other.Immediately, Cao Cao walked up to the messenger and asked, "Do you have Yuan Benchu's warrant?"

"Oh, here is the warrant." The orderly took out a bamboo tube from his pocket and handed it to Cao Cao with both hands.

Cao Cao took a look at the wax on the bamboo tube, opened the bamboo tube and asked, "Where is Ben Chu at this moment?"

The messenger said: "The alliance leader and others arrived in Luoyang two days ago."

Cao Cao was taken aback, and said to himself: "Benchu ​​and others have left Hulao Pass? No wonder you are so anxious to urge us to go back!"

After opening the bamboo tube, Cao Cao poured out a small cloth roll from inside, and unfolded the roll to watch.

After reading the handwriting on the cloth, he handed the warrant to Sun Jian and said, "Yuan Benchu ​​urged us to go back and discuss the matter of supporting King Hongnong."

Sun Jian took over the warrant and said after reading it, "This is expected. Since Yuan Benchu ​​has an order, it just gives us a step to withdraw our troops. Let's retreat back to Luoyang."

"That's good!" Cao Cao nodded, then said in disappointment, "Oh, the battle to win over Dong is doomed!"

After speaking, he walked towards Cai Yan.

"Zhaoji, come back to Luoyang with me!"

Cai Yan had just been troubled by Qin Yi, and Cai Yan was also unable to struggle with parting from her father.She nodded slightly, and said to Cao Cao: "The matter has come to this point, I can only fulfill my father's wish."

Cao Cao finally felt relieved, so he asked Qin Yi again: "Tian Yu, are you feeling better?"

Qin Yi said: "I already have some strength, but I need to rest for a while."

After saying that, he tilted his head and said to Cai Yan: "Miss Zhaoji, you can let go of my head."

Only then did Cai Yan realize that she was still holding the back of Qin Yi's head with her left hand.As soon as she blushed, she gently placed Qin Yi's head on the ground.

………………

After resting for a while, Qin Yi regained his strength.

Cao Cao and Sun Jian ordered the army to return to Luoyang.

On the way back, Cai Yan was placed in a carriage.Perhaps Cao Cao and Sun Jian were worried that Qin Yi would have another accident, so they forbade Qin Yi to ride a horse, and they also vacated a carriage for him.

Traveling on horseback is a hard job, and the war horses of this era have no saddles, which makes it even more torturous.Qin Yi had already ridden enough horses.Since Cao Cao and Sun Jian were so interested, he readily agreed.

On the way back, Qin Yi's and Cai Yan's carriages came one after the other.Qin Yi often turned his head, wanting to see Cai Yan.The army is full of rough men, and after finally having Cai Yan, a charming little beauty, Qin Yi naturally wants to cultivate his sentiments by being pleasing to the eye.This has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, but a common problem of men.

But along the way, Cai Yan, except for showing up during meal times, spent the rest of the time hiding in the carriage, and Qin Yi didn't pay much attention to him.

What puzzled Qin Yi was that the journey was so difficult, but every time Cai Yan showed up, he was tidy and clean, with no dust on his face or body.This is nothing like the military men covered in stains.Qin Yi really couldn't figure out how Cai Yan did this.

Alas, a beauty is a beauty, she is always beautiful.

Three days later, the army returned to Luoyang.

What made Sun Jian and Cao Cao very dissatisfied was that none of Yuan Shao's group of princes went out of the city to meet them.Only Sun Ce went out of the city to greet him with a few middle and low-level officers who stayed in Luoyang.

"Cer, what's going on with Yuan Shao and the others now?" After entering the city, Sun Jian asked Sun Ce while riding on horseback.

"After Yuan Shao came to Luoyang, he took people to visit King Hongnong. They had a secret discussion with King Hongnong. I don't know what they said."

"Hmph, what else can we discuss in secret? It must be Yuan Shao asking for credit from King Hongnong." Sun Jian sneered.

Sun Ce stopped answering, looked around, and asked Sun Jian: "Father, why don't I see Master?"

"Oh, your master had a great battle with Lu Bu. He exhausted his strength and felt a little unwell. He came back by carriage."

Sun Ce's eyes lit up: "Master and Lu Bu had a duel? Who won?"

"Hehe, I didn't expect that even you knew the term heads-up." Sun Jian smiled knowingly, and then said, "Tian Yu won."

"My master actually defeated Lu Bu!" Sun Ce's eyes widened excitedly. "Father, where is my master's carriage? I'm going to ask him how he singled out Lu Bu."

Sun Jian turned his upper body and pointed to the back: "The one with the black canopy is Tianyu's carriage."

"Oh oh oh!" Sun Ce turned the horse's head and ran towards Qin Yi's carriage.
