Chapter 546: Sun Shangxiang's Request
Zhang Yu walked around the college, and saw that there were too many students here, and the changes were huge.
After turning around, Zhang Yu went to look for Xiang Heng again.
"Patriarch Xiang, you can take care of everything in this academy, it's hard work," Zhang Yu said.
Xiang Heng is indeed old, he was sixty before he went down the mountain, and now that he has been down for a few years, he already looks a bit old.
"Oh, I'm getting old. It was okay before, but now the college is too big and there are so many things. Now it continues to expand, and the college has thousands of people. I can't take care of it." Xiang Heng said.
Xiang Heng was indeed getting old, and Zhang Yu didn't try to keep him.
"Patriarch Xiang, why don't you recommend two people to me recently, and I will arrange them so that you can take good care of yourself when you get old," Zhang Yu said.
Xiang Heng nodded, knowing that the academy was very important to Zhang Yu, and he couldn't be negligent. When he got old, he took the initiative to give up his seat.
Xiang Heng recommended several people to Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu selected a few of them to arrange specific things for them.
As for the dean, Zhang Yu will not arrange other people.
He himself serves as the dean of the college, whether it is Jiangdong College or Liaodong College, he is the dean himself.
In later generations, there was a Principal Jiang who trained a group of students for his own use.
But now, Zhang Yu also wants to make himself a dean, and all talents in Jiangdong will regard him as a teacher in the future.
Even if the students from other forces come here and go out in the future, they are still their own students.
With this relationship, Zhang Yu will save a lot of trouble in recruiting and surrendering them when Zhang Yu establishes a place in the future.
After looking for Xiang Heng, the matter was decided. Zhang Yu wanted to appoint himself as the dean of the college, and the specific things were handed over to other people, and Zhang Yu just put up a name.
However, Zhang Yu is not entirely named, at least he has contributed the most to the college, and he has personally grasped the construction of several disciplines. In the early stage, without Zhang Yu providing some basic knowledge, it would be difficult for these disciplines to develop.
After confirming with Xiang Heng, Zhang Yu planned to leave.
When Zhang Yu came out, he ran into Sun Shangxiang outside the yard.
This is where the dean and teachers usually rest, and there are not many students.
"Zhang Yu." Sun Shangxiang called.
Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, this little girl came here specially to wait for him.
"What do you want from me?" Zhang Yu walked up to Sun Shangxiang and looked at Sun Shangxiang like a ruffian.
Sun Shangxiang gave Zhang Yu a white look, and walked straight to the gazebo in front of her.
Zhang Yu shrugged and followed.
Sun Shangxiang sat in a corner of the gazebo, and Zhang Yu used to sit opposite her.
"What is this little girl going to do?" Zhang Yu looked at Sun Shangxiang sitting and lowered his head without speaking.
Zhang Yu was confused, what was this little girl doing.
After a while, Sun Shangxiang raised his head and said, "Zhang Yu, you can marry me if you want, but you must hold a grand wedding for me."
Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat at Sun Shangxiang's words, but nothing showed on his face. After a while, he understood many things in his heart. Sun Ce must have asked her to marry him.
Sun Shangxiang could have gone back a long time ago, but Sun Ce has not taken her back for a long time, probably for the purpose of marriage.
In addition, there is also the purpose of letting Sun Shangxiang continue to stay as a hostage.
Zhang Yu didn't speak because he couldn't make any promises.
Whether or not to marry Sun Ce is a major political issue, how can a decision be made now.
"If you can't even meet this requirement, then I would rather die than agree to the marriage, even if you force my brother to be useless." Sun Shangxiang said again.
Tens of thousands of prairie horses ran past in Zhang Yu's heart. When did he force Sun Ce? This was obviously Zhou Yu's idea.
Zhang Yu was embarrassed and couldn't say anything.
Perhaps Sun Shangxiang already understood that he was destined to marry, not with Zhang Yu, but with someone else.
"Remember, a grand wedding must be held." Sun Shangxiang stood up, then emphasized it again, and then left.
Zhang Yu sat in the gazebo by himself, shaking his head helplessly.
"It's no wonder that her temperament has changed drastically. She doesn't like to be armed and then likes to read."
At this time, Sun Shangxiang was at the age of youth and rebellion, and also liked to fantasize and dream, but the family wanted her to get married.
This is unacceptable to her, that's why it happened.
As for her request, Zhang Yu didn't understand why, it might be the persistence of his daughter's family.
Zhang Yu sat there for a long time, unable to understand why, and didn't think about it.
What he is concerned about now is when Sun Ce will go to war.
Guo Jia and Zhang Zhao have already started operations and sent a batch of weapons and equipment there.
In addition, the 100,000 recruits trained by Zhang Yu have also been trained for two months, and it will not take long for them to be added to the main battle army at any time.
This time, Zhang Yu's purpose is very clear, to occupy the territory and weaken Yuan Shu.
Although Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses were not powerful, Zhang Yu had to be wary of their numbers. It happened that Sun Ce wanted to attack Yuan Shu, so Zhang Yu could take advantage of this opportunity to use Sun Ce.
After staying in the academy for another two days, Zhang Yu sorted out the affairs here, and then returned to the city.
After returning, Zhang Yu found Guo Jia and Zhang Zhao.
"How much power does Sun Ce have now?" Zhang Yu asked Guo Jia, who was in charge of intelligence work.
Guo Jia thought for a while and said: "What can be found out is that Sun Ce currently has an army of 300,000. Since we sold Dongting Lake to Sun Ce, he has grown rapidly. He not only recruited a large number of refugees from other places, but also imitated us and opened up wasteland. Free farm tools for three years."
The 300,000 troops, led by Sun Ce and assisted by Zhou Yu, plus the veterans left behind by Sun Jian, are indeed a force to be reckoned with.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "The key to this battle is how to control the scale and limit Sun Ce's development."
Zhang Zhao said: "My lord, we can ask Cai Hao to help us at critical times."
Indeed, Zhang Yu will not directly send troops to deal with Sun Ce, otherwise the next cooperation will be difficult.
But Zhang Yu could let Cai Mao threaten Sun Ce from the rear, forcing Sun Ce to retreat.
"The relationship is complicated, I'm afraid I have to go to Jingzhou myself." Zhang Yu said.
How could Cai Mao listen to him? Although the relationship between the two parties is close, Zhang Yu can't make it work.
Therefore, Zhang Yu had to meet Cai Mao in person, so that he could know what Cai Mao wanted and what Zhang Yu wanted to give him.
This is definitely an exchange of benefits. Others may not be able to be the master. Zhang Yu must go in person.
Zhang Yu predicted that it would take at least a month after he handed over all the weapons and equipment to Sun Ce, and it would take at least two months for Sun Ce to carry out equipment training before launching an offensive.
In this way, Zhang Yu still has at least three months to make arrangements, which is completely in time.
Zhang Yu even considered whether to meet Sun Ce in person, but this might arouse Yuan Shu's vigilance.
"Let's go meet, Yuan Shu is ready." Zhang Yu thought.
Yuan Shu is prepared, and he will definitely guard against Zhang Yu. There are advantages and disadvantages. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
