After Xu Wenzhi gained Jiang Ling's support and trust.
It was as if a raging fire was burning in my heart, and my whole body was filled with endless energy.
However, there was still a trace of worry in his heart.
Everyone knows that the North is an abandoned city. It was originally a deserted, remote and poor place that no one cared about.
Commonly known as the no-man's land.
Now, because they were exiled here, Jiangling and his men took the opportunity to capture it, turned it into their own city, and firmly controlled it in their hands.
They were all very excited because they could finally be the masters of their own home.
However, the current North is completely different from what it was a few months ago. It has been built magnificently and its development may surpass many other cities.
This will cause various problems.
Just like people, when they are poor and destitute, no one cares about them.
When you become rich, you will be surrounded by gossips!
Xu Wenzhi couldn't help but think to himself:
Would this make the emperors of the other three countries think that they had ambitions to become kings themselves?
Although they are an independent city, their masters do not want to be emperors.
However, in seemingly peaceful times, the rise of any force will attract the attention and vigilance of all parties.
If the northern border could develop as rapidly as expected, it would inevitably arouse the fear or envy and jealousy of the emperors of the other three kingdoms.
By then, these emperors might try to incorporate the North into their own sphere of influence.
As a result, the land they have worked so hard to cultivate may never be able to return to its current peace and tranquility.
This is something that must be prevented in advance.
Thinking of this, Xu Wenzhi could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and blurted out involuntarily.
"My Lord, I am a little worried.
We have to be wary of the other three countries who are eyeing us covetously.
Although the northern border used to be remote, with a harsh environment, poverty and backwardness, it was a lawless area.
However, after we open the city and develop rapidly, other countries will definitely come up with various ideas.
With our current military strength, we are simply unable to confront any country head-on."
After hearing this, the other people present seemed to wake up from a dream, and they all showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
It was indeed as Xu Wenzhi said, his concerns were not unfounded.
You know, even though they have the God of War in charge, they also have two famous generals and a thousand well-trained soldiers.
But in contrast, the military strength of the other three mature and powerful countries is enough to conquer the northern border.
How can one not feel worried when there is such a huge disparity in power?
Although, Jiangling is also very powerful.
However, he was just one person, and facing hundreds of thousands or even millions of soldiers, he would probably be unable to hold on alone.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other in confusion. No one could speak for a moment, and the whole scene fell into a depressing silence.
At this moment, even Yue Qianli couldn't help but lower his head and think deeply.
Only Jiang Ling looked calm, without a trace of worry on his face.
He looked at the worried faces of the people around him, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"Okay, what are you guys worried about?
There's no need to be like this, really, it's okay.
I am here, and Yue Qianli is here too.
Solutions are always thought up by people. Don't worry about things that have not happened or are unlikely to happen.
You all just need to focus on completing the tasks at hand.
We are a team with clear division of labor and concerted efforts.
Don't worry too much about things that are not within your responsibilities. It will tax your brain and make you age faster if you think too much.
Maybe one day you’ll wake up and find that all your hair has fallen out! Hahaha…”
After Jiang Ling finished speaking, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After hearing Jiang Ling's comforting words, everyone who had originally had tense faces and was full of worries suddenly felt relieved and their mood suddenly became lighter.
Although they were not entirely sure why Jiang Ling's few words could cause such a drastic change in their state of mind, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
At the same time, they also knew in their hearts that they could not put all the burdens and pressures on Jiang Ling alone. After all, he was just an ordinary mortal.
Therefore, everyone present secretly made up their minds to do their best to complete their own work to perfection.
At this moment, Shen Yinyun, who was always straightforward, suddenly asked:
"Jiang Xiaoling, what else can you come up with?
If they really try to forcibly invade our northern border, how can you, alone, possibly resist so many enemies?"
"Hehehe, do you think I would be stupid enough to confront them head-on?
That would be asking for trouble.
Everyone, just keep your heart at ease. If I don’t even have this little bit of brains, how can I still be called a big boss?
If they dare to have any evil thoughts, I will definitely nip them in the bud without hesitation.
We need to scare them so much that they won't dare even think of anything detrimental to our northern border."
Jiang Ling raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile. He glanced at the puzzled people in front of him and continued to explain:
“In my opinion, no matter which country, the people, or the soldiers, deep down they all hate war and yearn for peace.
