Zhang Yu has been busy in Youzhou for more than a month, and most of the time he spends his time creating traps, preparing ambushes and other things.

Concerning the safety of the entire Youzhou, Zhang Yu did not dare to be sloppy at all.

Zhang Yu was not at ease after inspecting several southbound passages, so he sent people to start investigating the entire Youzhou, even if no one had ever been to a place, Zhang Yu had to send someone to find it, so that the Xiongnu had no other place to go south.

Only by blocking all passages or arranging an ambush can Zhang Yu rest assured.

The leader of the Xiongnu had already sent someone to inform Yu Fuluo of the situation here.

After Yu Fuluo understood the situation, he asked him to cooperate with Zhang Yu, and by the way, he asked Zhang Yu for some benefits.

Let people help with the work, of course, you have to give some benefits, Zhang Yu's advantage is that all the goods are reduced in price, and a large amount of supply, the premise is that you have the money to buy, there is no money to give you a discount, you still can't afford it, then there is no way.

After the arrangement, Zhang Yu returned to New Beiping City.

At this time, the new Beiping City has been fully built, both inside and outside.

It is really a majestic city, a military town, an economic center of gravity, and a large city with a population of more than one million.

There are few such cities in the whole world.

Luoyang has declined, and only Yecheng in Jizhou and the two cities in Jiangdong can be compared.

Wangcheng in Koto will undoubtedly be a super metropolis in the future, and although the population is still relatively small, less than one million, more people will go there in the future.

The other is an open city, that is, the Shanghai of the later generations, at this time the area is not very stable, Zhang Yu did not carry out large-scale construction, but not love, and so Xuzhou stabilized, Zhang Yu will definitely build that into a super large city.

Back in New Beiping, Zhang Yu received the latest news.

The imperial examinations held by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have already yielded results.

Most of Yuan Shaofang's exams are subsets of scriptures and history, but there are policy discussions, only one article, so the proportion is not very large.

And Cao Cao also examined the subset of scripture history, which accounted for about half of the proportion.

Zhang Yu took the information and shared it with Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai carefully checked it and said: "Lord, from the analysis of the information sent by our intelligence officers, this Yuan Shao is looking for children of the family, and the common people will not be reused, and the content of the examination cannot really select talents, it can only be said that most of the selected people are scholars." ”

Scholars and talents are different concepts, and they will only go through a subset of history, and many of them may be dumbfounded scholars.

And this Cao Cao obviously understands, so half of the test is policy theory, he wants to focus on policy theory, but most of the people in this era read a subset of scripture and history, if you don't take the test, it is estimated that the result will be very miserable.

Cao Cao not only had to select talents, but also take care of the face of these scholars.

Therefore, Cao Cao came to the test half and half.

More than 10,000 people participated on both sides, and its influence was far inferior to that of Jiangdong's imperial examination.

Not to mention that Jiangdong itself has trained tens of thousands of candidates, let's just say that there are tens of thousands of people from other places.

Although they do not have enough influence, they are able to recruit some talent.

After Zhou Yu and Sun Ce returned to Changsha, they also began to prepare, and the imperial examination will be held in the near future.

In this way, Zhang Yu's imperial examination has formed a huge influence.

Zhang Yu put down this information and began to pay attention to the military.

"According to the analysis, in two or three months, Yuan Shao will be ready, and then he will be able to attack Cao Cao." Zhang Yu said.

"Lord, we can transfer up to 200,000 soldiers and horses in Youzhou, and the rest must defend Youzhou, otherwise even if we make arrangements in advance, we may not be able to prevent the Huns." Xi Zhicai said.

"Two hundred thousand is enough." Zhang Yu said confidently.

He was sure that 200,000 was enough, and he was sure that Yuan Shao would be defeated, and as long as Yuan Shao was defeated, Qingzhou would not be able to stop him.

Not only can Qingzhou, Zhang Yu also set his sights on Jizhou.

Jizhou is one of the richest states in the world, of course, and now it may become Yangzhou or Youzhou, these two places are under the management of Zhang Yu, the population and economic development are very fast.

Zhang Yu took a map and drew a few lines on it.

"Lord, lord, this is too risky." After looking at the picture drawn by Zhang Yu, Xi Zhicai was startled and said.

"It's an adventure, these lines are just my idea, and I won't necessarily do it."

The line drawn by Zhang Yu is impressively from Youzhou to Yecheng in Jizhou, and there is also a route to attack Qingzhou by sea and land.

This is to go deep into the enemy's territory and fight inside the enemy, which is really bold.

Zhang Yu was completely interested in the wealth of Jizhou, so he had the idea of taking risks.

Attacking Jizhou or Yecheng is no longer a simple adventure.

"This is a backup plan, but you must also arrange someone to study it carefully, study the route, and possible situations clearly, if the conditions allow, I will attack Jizhou first, and then attack Qingzhou."

Judging from Zhang Yu's words, although Zhang Yu listed the plan to attack Jizhou as a backup, looking at his posture, he had to be carefully prepared, and if there was a possibility of success, he would take risks.

Taking the risk of attacking Jizhou or Yecheng, in Xi Zhicai's opinion, there is no need to take risks at all.

It is more in line with Zhang Yu's interests to go all out to win Qingzhou.

However, Zhang Yu has already made a decision, and Xi Zhicai can only make a plan according to Zhang Yu's words.

This plan is quite difficult to make, because the enemy's situation is changing at any time, and once it changes, the route and troops have to be adjusted, so it is really difficult for Xi Zhicai to make a plan.

However, Zhang Yu told Xi Zhicai to make a plan according to Yuan Shaohui's defeat.

On the cards, this Yuan Shao is destined for a big victory, and Zhang Yu makes a plan from the perspective of a big defeat.

Of course, there is no problem with this, there is a big victory and a big victory, and there is a big defeat in a big defeat.

On the bright side, Zhang Yu can't make any preparations, otherwise it will change the battle of Guandu, and he may not even be able to fight.

"In addition, if this battle goes according to our expectations, there will be a large number of displaced people, when the time comes, directly find a port in Qingzhou, and then send all of them to Fusang, within three years, I want to unify Fusang, Zhicai, you first make preliminary preparations, once necessary, you must be able to mobilize a large number of personnel and materials out." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu hadn't eaten the typical pot yet, so he looked at the other people's bowls, and before Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had started fighting, Zhang Yu set his eyes on Fusang.

But that's how to be a leader, look far, and leave specific things to your subordinates.

More than a month has passed, and the time has entered March, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have become the same situation, they were just preparing before, and now the army and grain and grass have also begun to move, and they may fight at any time.

Cao Cao was worried, he couldn't sleep well for a few days, not only Yuan Shao moved, but the surrounding forces also moved.
