What's the matter with Jin Meng joining forces?

To put it simply, Jin Meng's joint efforts were an experiment, stripping away the myth and the spring and autumn brushwork. We can see that at that time, Zhou Wenwang and Zhou Wuwang were still not sure that they could get rid of Shang Zhouwang. After all, the strength of Shang Dynasty still existed.

Moreover, at that time, the Zhou Dynasty had certain control over the surrounding governors, but for the distant governors, it was impossible to determine whether it could be controlled. At best, it can only be said that it has had some impact.

Therefore, Zhou Wuwang made a test and went east to Jin Meng to see how much he controlled the governor, and at the same time tested Shang Zhouwang's reaction. It seems that the first alliance should be a failure, which shows that Zhou Wuwang's influence is not enough. That's why I have this sentence: I can't do it without knowing my fate!

And after you come back, Zhou Wuwang immediately suited up and attacked the neighboring governors who could not join Jin Meng for the first time, so as to expand their control, so it was two years before the second Jin Meng League. By this time, the Shang Dynasty's response policy was wrong (the rebellion of the eastern tribes was not resolved in time, and it was impossible to dispatch troops to help the governors attacked by the Zhou Dynasty, thus losing the barrier and popular support), and the governors could not fight against Wu Zhou alone, so they had to gather in Jin Meng and swear to crusade against the Shang Dynasty.

Therefore, Jin Meng Meng Hui can be regarded as a successful experiment, which is an experiment for the Zhou Dynasty to seek solutions to the Shang Dynasty and its vassals. Through probing, the Zhou Dynasty found out the bottom line of the Shang Dynasty and the list of disobedient princes, thus carrying out targeted blows and wooing, finally disintegrating the foundation of the Shang Dynasty and reaching the top!
