Xiqi can dominate the West, in addition to the good governance of Xibohou Ji Chang, there is another important reason, that is, Ji Chang's father Ji Li has repeatedly attacked the major Western Yi countries and the princes who disobeyed Xiqi.

Each time the enemy was defeated, Xiqi would move its people, seize its land, and grow from an ordinary prince in the West to a Western overlord in hundreds of years, and even the Great Shang Dynasty could only recognize Xiqi's status.

Feng Yuan wants to develop Qingzhou and Linzi step by step, and there is no time left.

Di Xin's succession to the throne means that it will not be long before the Heavenly Killing Tribulation will completely erupt.

He could only adopt the strategy of Xiqi's development at the beginning, not only to vigorously attack the Yiren vassal states, but also to find a way to get the resources for growth from the other princes in the east.

Of course, he couldn't have acted as rudely as the Seasonal Calendar......

"Dingkou, who seized the territory of other princes, Childe, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, right? If Chao Ge orders a reprimand, or directly sends someone to intervene, how can we stop it?"

When Li Jing heard this, he frowned and reminded.

Feng Yuan glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "The general is too worried, as long as we give Chao Ge a reasonable reason, they won't send someone to interfere, unless we do it too obviously." ”

For big businessmen, although they are in the heyday of cooking oil with fire at this time, there are many hidden dangers.

One of them is the rebellion of Yuan Futong in Beihai, which has been recruited by Wen Taishi and will be able to be quelled sooner or later.

The second is that the power of the vassal states in the four frontiers is constantly increasing, and there is already a hidden danger that it will be difficult to get rid of.

At the beginning, the Great Shang divided the princes of each town and established the princely states in the four sides of the frontier, in order to use these princely states as a shield to resist the invasion of the Rongdi barbarians in the four directions.

And now, in addition to the Jiuli people in the south entrenched in the 100,000 mountains and the continuous tug-of-war between the southern Bohou, the Ghost Fang Kingdom in the north and the Dog Rong country in the west have been subdued by the Xibohou and the Northern Bohou.

Dongyi in the east was also wiped out in one fell swoop by the army of the Great Shang Eastern Expedition and the princes of the towns in the east some time ago.

However, after pacifying the barbarians in the east, west, and north, the big merchants did not get the greatest benefits.

Except for some booty, land, people, and slaves all cheapened the vassal states of the border towns.

Xiqi absorbed a large amount of land from several dog Rong countries, which laid the hegemony of Xiqi in one fell swoop. In the north, the reason why Yuan Futong is big is also because he has absorbed a large number of ghost tribes......

If it is inferred according to the normal situation, after Dongyi was defeated, the land slaves left behind, Dongbohou could get the largest share, so as to make Donglu's power to a higher level.

Donglu and Xiqi, after sitting big, are the hidden dangers of big business.

After all, when the Great Xia Dynasty was still there, Shang was just a small vassal state in the East, and Xia Wei was tyrannical, giving Shang the opportunity to rise all the way to become a great Shang.

In the eyes of the successive emperors of the Great Shang Dynasty, in addition to the barbarians of the four directions, the princes of the four directions of the frontier also need to be seriously guarded.

"For big businessmen, Donglu and Xiqi are worth guarding against, Qingzhou's power is not in the eyes of Chaoge for the time being, if Qingzhou can play a role in containing Donglu, even if Qingzhou does something out of the ordinary, Chaoge is very likely to sit idly by!"

Feng Yuan's thoughts flickered in his heart.

As long as you blatantly send troops to attack Donglu, cause some friction with some princes who are attached to Donglu, and plunder some population, iron tools, and slaves, it is a trivial matter.

"And the name of the East Bohou...... In fact, this name is just a false name for Qingzhou, anyway, in the future, Qingzhou will choose the opportunity to raise troops and establish himself as the king, no matter how big the name of Bohou is, it is not as big as the king!"

However, when he said it to others, Feng Yuan couldn't say what he thought.

Qingzhou civil and military, including Fengzong, all believed that Dashang was at its peak at this time and could not be an enemy with it, and Fengzong's greatest ambition was nothing more than the position of Dongbohou.

After all, not everyone can be like Feng Yuan, knowing that the dynasty that is at the peak of its current situation will not be long before the princes rebel and perish step by step.

But this is nothing, in his previous life, Cao Mengde also said that his greatest wish was only to serve as the general of the Han Dynasty, and in the end he did not become the king of Wei.

"Childe has made a decision, and the last general should take his own orders!"

Li Jing didn't know much about Chaoge's mentality, but he believed that Feng Yuan would not act rashly. The Lord has already made a calculation, so as a general, he can only obey orders.

Feng Yuan nodded and said, "Don't be in a hurry about this matter first, when you go back, you will send someone first to spread the news that Dong Bohou sent assassins to assassinate me." ”

"Then take 200,000 troops, pass through Jishan Yuanzhou, and attack Mengzhou in Donglu, this time, the focus is not to attack the city and plunder the land, but to seize the people of Mengzhou!"

"Dong Bohou sent assassins to assassinate Gongzi?"

Li Jing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Didn't get the order at the first time.

Feng Yuan said: "The Qi Refiner who attacked me in Baihuling before was behind Donglu's instructions! Donglu sent assassins, and Qingzhou naturally wanted to fight back. ”

When Li Jing heard this, he knew that the contradiction between Donglu and Qingzhou had actually reached the level of life and death, sending assassins to assassinate him!

"The Admiral understands!"

He took a deep breath and took his command.

Then Feng Yuan no longer talked about political affairs, but casually inquired about Li Jing's situation, wanting to know the information of his master Du'er Zhenren.

Du'er Zhenren is one of the few people who has the power to cultivate into a golden immortal as a loose cultivator.

According to the information in Feng Yuan's memory, Du Er Zhenren later entered the Tao and became a Bodhisattva in Western Buddhism, and became one of the eight great Bodhisattvas.

In addition to Li Jing, his apprentice also has Zheng Lun. If you can pass Li Jing and pull Zheng Lun over, you can just form a combination of humming and two generals with Chen Qi......

Even if Zheng Lun can't win him over, he must first get to know Du Er Zhenren, and maybe he will have to borrow the Wind Bead from him in the future.

However, Li Jing's qualifications are limited, and he didn't learn any secret supernatural powers from Du'er Zhenren, only some five-element spells, and after going down the mountain, he never received a letter from his master.

Feng Yuan couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

......

Back in the city, Feng Yuan took back the power and began to deal with various things in Linzi normally.

Li Jing followed his instructions and began to send people to spread the news to the outside world, and for a while, the news that Dongbohou sent assassins to assassinate the prince of Qingzhou was detonated.

There were many other hidden spies of the princes in Linzi City.

After learning the news, these spies immediately looked shocked, and used the Flying Eagle, the Sound Transmission Gu, and other secret methods to transmit the news to their masters.

Dongbohou sent assassins to assassinate the prince of Qingzhou...... This is a major event that can shake the princes of the two hundred roads in the east, and even alarm the court.

Donglu and Qingzhou are the largest two vassal states in the East, and if a major war breaks out between the two sides, it can affect the entire East.
