The people guarding the Zhennan Pass gate are still the original garrison, so they know him.
"It's okay, it's okay." Wang Lin smiled slightly when he saw this.
But soon, he noticed that there were more patrols around the city gate than usual, so he frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
The military leader smiled upon hearing the question and said respectfully, "Not long ago, our superiors issued an order for us to be more vigilant, so we have more people on patrol."
"I see."
Hearing this, Wang Lin didn't find it strange.
Because this kind of thing is very normal, after all, the emperor of Wei is now living in the palace in Zhennan Pass.
He also thought that it was normal for Lu An to follow the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Camp and prepare to purge the emperor's side and think about strengthening the defenses.
It's just adding a few patrol personnel, which is actually nothing and will not affect his overall plan at all.
"Okay, you guys continue your patrol, I'll take a walk by myself." After saying that, Wang Lin turned around and left.
He was deeply trusted by Lu An, so even when he brought people to the city gate, he did not attract attention.
However, Wang Lin did not go far, but kept wandering around.
At the same time, in order not to arouse suspicion.
He also told the patrol teams to be careful from time to time, which seemed very normal.
"Bang!"
Not long after.
A bunch of fireworks suddenly exploded in the sky outside the city.
The soldiers defending the city didn't know what was going on. They only heard a huge roar outside the city, which was the sound of at least thousands of horses trampling on the ground.
Almost in an instant, there was a sound of charging and killing outside the city, and they rushed directly towards the city gate!
"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!"
The leader of the army defending the city reacted immediately and quickly organized his men to prepare to spread the news.
But at this moment, Wang Lin, who was in the city, suddenly rushed into the city gate with his men.
However, just before opening the city gate, he hesitated.
Because Wang Lin recalled the days when he was in Zhennanguan City. The people in the city lived and worked in peace and contentment without being ravaged by war. Although some people lived in poverty, at least their families were in good health.
Especially in the recent days, the Wei Dynasty implemented the land-based tax system, and the people's lives have become better and better.
Without war, this situation would have continued.
Coupled with Lu An's long-standing trust, he suddenly felt that this was wrong. Even though he was a Baiyue person, he brought killing to those innocent ordinary people, which was not worthy of being a human being.
But if we don't do this, what will happen when Wei recovers and retaliates against Baiyue?
"I don't have a choice!"
After a brief hesitation, Wang Lin finally chose to open the city gate.
If this battle caused harm to the innocent people in Zhennan Pass, it would indeed be his fault. However, this battle was of great significance to the Baiyue people. Capturing the Emperor of Wei alive could solve many problems.
If you want to get something, you must give up something!
Afterwards, he ordered his men to open the city gate directly and killed some soldiers on the way.
Looking at the dead soldiers, Wang Lin closed his eyes slightly, knowing that these soldiers had trusted him immensely not long ago...
But war is so cruel!
Without further hesitation, he asked his men to guard the city gate, while he stood by and waited for someone to come, because the fireworks were the signal for the Baiyue to launch a surprise attack.
He knew that the Barbarian Lord had already brought his men here, and now he had to seize the opportunity and get the Barbarian Lord into the city in the shortest possible time.
As for whether the news here would be reported, Wang Lin was not worried. At present, the commander Lu An and Lin Chong were dealing with Wang Jin from the East Factory. Obviously, it would be difficult for them to react in such a short time.
And this is my chance.
After opening the city gate as planned.
Outside Zhennan Pass, a large army rushed in.
These people were wearing leather and wooden armor, unlike the Wei army. The armor on them was very rough and did not protect the whole body, but exposed most of it.
It was the army of Baiyue.
Leading the group was a man eight feet tall holding a curved sword.
The man looked strong and powerful, his eyes were bright and his whole body was full of wildness.
The Baiyue people are actually somewhat similar to the grassland people in some aspects, but their physique and height are not as good. However, this man looks tall and mighty, and while he is charging, his body is constantly surging with energy and blood, making him extremely powerful.
"Barbarian Lord!"
Wang Lin's eyes lit up when he saw the tall man. He hurried over and said, "Wang Lin, greetings to the Barbarian Lord!"
That’s right, this person was the barbarian who unified the land of Baiyue and was revered as the Holy Lord by the Baiyue people!
"Wang Lin? You did very well."
The Barbarian Lord certainly knew that he had an insider in the Nanguan City of Dawei Town.
But he didn't expect that the other party would risk his life and directly open the gate of Zhennan Pass.
"This is what I should do." Wang Lin said immediately, "Barbarian Lord, I know the exact location of the Emperor Wei's palace. It's a bit far from the city gate, but as long as we are quick, it should be fine."
"Besides, the Great Wei Emperor is personally leading the army with 200,000 men under his command. We must hurry, but the imperial guards should not exceed 3,000 men."
"The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Front Camp and Lu An were currently engaged in a power struggle to clear the court of corrupt officials. They were completely unable to react."
"This is the opportunity we should take advantage of!"
