Looking at the corpses of the Cao soldiers, Diao Chan and her subordinates all looked at the black armored heavy cavalry with monstrous gazes.
Wasn't the combat strength of this group of black-armored heavy cavalry a little too terrifying?
That was Cao Cao's army of 5,000!
Although 5,000 soldiers was not a lot, it was definitely not a small number either. Two 5,000-soldier squads could form an army of 10,000 soldiers…
After witnessing the battle just now, Diao Chan and the others realized that they seemed to have underestimated the combat power of this group of black armored heavy cavalry.
After wiping out more than five thousand Cao soldiers, their side only suffered a dozen casualties…This was a huge difference.
After this short battle ended, Diao Chan's hundreds of remaining soldiers looked at the surrounding black armored heavy cavalry vigilantly.
Although Cao Cao's army had been destroyed, the danger…was still there…
After killing Cao Cao's soldiers, this group of 'Liu Bei's Army' Heavy Cavalrymen might also kill them…after all, these Heavy Cavalrymen were all from 'Liu Bei's Army', while Lu Bu's and Liu Bei's armies were enemies.
"You…why did you save me?"
Different from her soldiers, Diao Chan did not look at Mu Lin with much fear or vigilance. There was only confusion…
Diao Chan had carefully observed the battle just now. She realized that from the start, the group of black armored heavy cavalry only attacked the Cao Army soldiers, and not a single one of the hundreds of soldiers under her had died…
"Lord Diao Chan! General Mu Lin is the reinforcement I brought from Xiapi City! We are saved! Lord Lu Bu is saved!"
An excited voice rang out from a group of black-armored heavy cavalry. The young soldier that Lu Lingqi had sent to " lead the way " for Mu Lin walked excitedly to Diao Chan and knelt on the ground. He had completed his mission this time. Not only had he broken out of the encirclement of Xiaopei City's enemies, but he had also brought Xiapi City's reinforcements.
This man was the soldier Diao Chan had sent back to Xiapi City to gather reinforcements. After returning to Xiapi City, he was assigned to Mu Lin by Lu Lingqi, who asked him to lead the way for Mu Lin and the Black Armored Army.
Diao Chan naturally recognized this soldier. The moment she saw him, her nervous heart finally relaxed completely.
Not only Diao Chan, the moment this intelligence soldier appeared, the hundreds of remaining soldiers under Diao Chan also heaved a sigh of relief. They finally relaxed from the high impact. Some of them were so tired that they directly lay on the grass and fell asleep.
These hundreds of injured soldiers had not slept for a while. Moreover, they had been in a state of high tension for the past few days. Now that they knew that they were safe, the sleepiness hidden in their bodies immediately swept over. Many of them could not resist the huge sleepiness and directly fell asleep...
"So it's reinforcements. Hu…I was scared half to death. I thought it was really Liu Bei's army."
"Hahaha…I'm finally saved…"
"No wonder he didn't attack us. So…we're all family! Hahaha…"
The remaining soldiers of Diao Chan sat on the ground one after another. Their faces finally revealed a smile as if they had just survived a disaster. The wariness in their eyes when they looked at the black armored troops earlier had also disappeared without a trace at this moment. Not only was there no wariness, but there was also a rich sense of gratitude.
They had been saved because of the appearance of these black armored heavy cavalry. If it weren't for these ten thousand black armored cavalry, they would have died without a doubt. How could they not be grateful for this?
Just now, they had indeed thought that they were doomed. Who would have known that this heavy cavalry troop disguised as Liu Bei's army was actually Lu Bu's reinforcements from Xiapi City!
Although they didn't know why the reinforcements had arrived so quickly, it was no longer important. What was important was that they were saved. Lord Lu Bu, who was trapped in Xiaopei City, was also saved. Although they might not be able to save him, at least there was hope.
" Reinforcements…Reinforcements!?"
A hint of astonishment appeared on her beautiful face. Diao Chan did not expect that this huge number of heavy cavalry troops was actually Xiapi City's reinforcements. Since when did Xiapi City have such an elite heavy cavalry unit? Why had she never heard of it before?
"Lu Lingqi's adjutant Mu Lin greets Lord Diao Chan!”
Mu Lin cupped his hands slightly and smiled. This smile was not the cold and evil smile from before, but a smile that came from the bottom of his heart…
"Adjutant? Since when did Lady Lu Lingqi have an adjutant? Why didn't I know?"
It was no wonder Diao Chan was so surprised.
As a general of Xiapi City, Diao Chan naturally had a certain understanding of Lü Lingqi. Lü Lingqi had high standards, and many people wanted to be her adjutant, including some powerful generals. However, Lü Lingqi had never taken a fancy to anyone. All along, Lü Lingqi had been famous for being a loner. When she went out to battle, she would usually lead the army alone. There was no adjutant at all. However, this silver-armored young man in front of her…He actually claimed to be Lu Lingqi's adjutant…It would be strange if Diao Chan wasn't surprised.
"It's like this…"
With a bitter smile, Mu Lin knew that an explanation was unavoidable, so he told Diao Chan everything that he and Lu Lingqi had "fabricated".
This included the fact that he was once the leader of Lu Lingqi's private army and had only recently been used by Lu Lingqi. These were all things that Mu Lin and Lu Lingqi had discussed. Heaven knew, earth knew, he knew, and Lu Lingqi knew. The others had no idea that this was just an identity that Lu Lingqi had fabricated for Mu Lin.
As for Mu Lin's true identity, even Lu Lingqi didn't know.
Mu Lin had also explained to Diao Chan that the 10,000 black armored heavy cavalry and black armored infantrymen were the elite troops that Lu Lingqi had secretly nurtured over the years. They were also her private army and had only recently been known to the outside world. Before this, they had always been " hidden " by Lu Lingqi and were not known to the outside world.
Diao Chan was suspicious of Mu Lin's explanation. After all, Mu Lin's explanation was reasonable and there were not many " suspicious points " that could make people suspicious. Most importantly, Mu Lin had nothing to lie to her. He would not gain anything from lying to her.
After learning Mu Lin's identity, Diao Chan became more enthusiastic towards him.
Which young girl did not yearn for love? Although Diao Chan had always been known as the number one beauty in this chaotic world and the goddess in the hearts of countless people, don't forget that she was still a woman.
As long as she was a woman, she was naturally not immune to it. Therefore, she would sometimes let her imagination run wild, fantasizing that there would be a man who would shelter her from the wind and rain, appear in front of her, and clear away all her hardships.
When she was in despair and humiliated, Diao Chan wished that a man would descend from the sky and help her out of her predicament.
Diao Chan had the same thought when she was chased and humiliated by Xiahou Shang, and now…her thought had come true…
The man who descended like a god had really appeared!
Mu Lin's appearance and image were almost exactly the same as Diao Chan's expectations…
At his most desperate moment, this man had appeared and killed Xiahou Shang, who had humiliated him. He had easily wiped out Cao Cao's pursuers! He had saved himself from a desperate situation.
This scene caused Diao Chan's heart, which had never been beating before, to tremble slightly.
The hero saving the damsel in distress had been used countless times, but it was undeniable that this was often the easiest way to capture a girl's heart. This trick had been tried and tested many times. Even if it could not make the other party fall in love with him immediately, it could win the other party's favor to a certain extent.
Diao Chan naturally wouldn't fall in love with Mu Lin just because he saved her life. However, even though she didn't fall in love with him, she already had a good impression of him. In the future, she might even like him or even love him.
This was a good sign.
