The leaders of all the participating parties were veterans on the battlefield. Although they recognized the strategic arrangement of the commander, they understood a basic truth: fighting on both sides is a taboo in military strategists, and there may be little or no hope of victory.

The reality is so cruel. If the company commander defeats General Zhang Dashen, even if he cannot win this battle, it will be even more impossible for others. They can only choose to believe that General Zhang can win the final victory.

Zhang Ping'an saw that although these commanders were tall and loud when they were taking the order, their panicked eyes revealed their inner uneasiness.

Knowing that this would not work, they must have the belief that they will win. So they began to explain the pros and cons of both the enemy and us.

"Next, I will analyze from a strategic perspective, the comparison of the pros and cons of the enemy and us."

"Let's take the Mongolian Lindan Khan first. The Mongolian soldiers were mainly cavalry, hard-working and not afraid of the cold, and were invincible in the world in the era of Genghis Khan. But the times were progressing. Over the past few hundred years, the Mongols' fighting methods did not change much. So, they declined! Our Ming Dynasty's Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Chengzu Zhu Di not only drove the Mongolian Tartars out of the Central Plains, but also took the initiative to attack and expel the Tartars from the northern desert!"

"So, no matter how many Mongolian Tartars come, they are no match for my slave army!" Zhang Dashuai waved his right hand vigorously and stomped his left foot down.

Zhang Ping'an pointed to the map and then analyzed: "The biggest disadvantage of the Mongols is that they lack siege capabilities; their weapons and equipment are poor; their cooperative combat capabilities are weak among all military groups; and their trust is poor among all Mongolian tribes. This gives our army the opportunity to defeat each other."

"In contrast, our army has excellent weapons; clear division of troops; unique tactics; and more importantly, defending the city is our army's strength; our army has the psychological advantage of defeating the Mongolian army repeatedly. In the early stage, the Mongolian army was dragged tightly in Pingrong City and Ponu City. After defeating the Jurchen coalition, the Mongolian coalition could not escape!"

Chen Poe raised his right hand hesitantly, and saw that there was something to say. Zhang Ping'an made a gesture of agreement.

"Master! Can you tell me more specifically?"

"Yes, you can learn from Chen Pear and raise your hand to ask questions at any time! Gu Xin brought the new shell model!"

Zhang Ping'an took the model from the ancient novices and showed it to everyone.

"This is the latest result of the Golden Wolf Camp shell experimental group after I came back. The shell adopts a conical design, with a warhead and a stable tail wing, which can be equipped with a *5 kilogram. The crossbow cannon is launched upwards with a range of three miles on the wind, with an error of within ten feet. It can effectively deal with the siege towers that the Mongols may have built, and the Hui cannon!"

Zhang Ping'an picked up a tea bowl from the table next to him, took a sip, and moistened his throat. "According to reliable information, the Mongolian Tartars had 100 artillery guns, with a range of less than one mile. In the long-range weapon duel, the Mongolian Tartars could not compete with our army at all!"

Zhang Ping'an took out another large-sized model. "This is a special * for defending the city, equipped with a *2 kilogram, and equipped with a wooden handle. After testing, the explosion rate was 93% and the explosion range was three meters. If the Mongolian Tatars approached the siege, this is the way to send them to the King of Hell!"

Zhang Ping'an asked Gu Xin to take out the musket model with a smelting face. "This is a new musket I designed myself. The gun barrel is forged with hard steel and rifled inwards; it is equipped with a ** for firing, and uses a conical foil warhead to hit ** to launch. It is fast loading and accurate shooting. The shooting distance is ninety meters, and the effective range is seventy meters."

"The weapons in the distance, middle, and near are not as good as our army. Let's talk about it, what are you afraid of in this battle!"

With a loud bang, everyone was excited by the fooling of Zhang Dashang and started a fierce discussion. At this time, Chen Po ignored the excitement of the other commanders, but calmly raised his hand and saw Zhang Ping'an nodding.

So he asked: "Where does the main battlefield against the Mongolian coalition forces want to set up?"

"Break the slave city!" Zhang Ping'an's answer was simple and clear.

No one in the stage was calm now. They all knew that during the war, the people would all be placed in Ponu City. The general's bet was too big. If there was a slight mistake in Ponu City, the soldiers fighting on the front line would be in chaos.

Chen Pie may have guessed this a long time ago, but he still asked calmly: "Are the Grand Marshal afraid of the fall of Po Nu City?"

Chen Poe's question made everyone who was still talking quiet suddenly. Because this was also the question they wanted to ask.

Zhang Ping'an, who was ready, smiled slightly and walked to the map again. He asked Gu Xin to push the map in front to reveal his true appearance.

"The strategic defense position of Ponu City is excellent. I used two small rivers to wash away the peninsula and designed Ponu City. There is no open space on the east, west and south sides to arrange a large siege army. Moreover, the foundations of these three city walls are all hard rocks. Not to mention that the land is hard in winter, even if they can dig up the land and dig through tunnels, they will never be able to bury these places in six years!"

Zhang Ping'an glanced at the venue and pointed to the north of the map: "So, the focus of our defense is on the north, because the terrain here is open and it is most suitable for siege! Before I went to Ningyuan, I arranged for people to investigate the geological conditions in the north, and there were huge rocks below three meters. This is why I dug three meters under the foundation of the north wall."

Zhang Ping'an's instruction pointing outside the north wall and drew a circle. "After the spring of next year, I will set up the land here as a defensive barrier belt. I expect it to be one hundred feet wide and five miles long enough! The road to the city gate is shown in the picture, turn a few big bays. Guxin, replace the next picture!"

Gu Xin and a few small advisers pushed the map of Ponu City away, revealing a large proportion of Ponu City and a local defense map to the north. Seeing that Zhang Ping'an was prepared so well, Chen Pi no longer had any hesitation in his eyes.

"I am going to build a defensive castle at these three points. As the first line of defense, if the enemy cannot break these three castles, the north wall will be as stable as Mount Tai."

Zhang Ping'an then pointed to the city wall on the north side of the map. "The city wall is the second line of defense. When the outer castle is broken, the enemy will encounter tenacious resistance like a jagged city wall defense line. This kind of wall design will not leave any blind spots for the defense side."

"The walls of the personal barracks and the Golden Wolf Camp can be used as the third line of defense with a little modification. This is why I built these two battalions in the north from the beginning!" Zhang Dashuai was quite proud of his foresight.

"What if the third line of defense is broken?" Rudeyin raised his hand and asked.

"Stupid! The wall of the General Mansion cannot be used! You form the fourth line of defense again! If the General Mansion is broken, we will fight streets! This is why I thickened the walls facing the streets and designed the windows of the houses very small. In the houses opposite the General Mansion, you only need to use sacks to fill soil in wartime and block the streets. Isn't it another line of defense? Didn't you find that the wall facing the north is thicker than other walls?"

"Brothers! If you are more interested, I will not be so tired!" Zhang Ping'an shamelessly educated everyone.

"Master, what if the Tartars attack the south?" Wu Tianxing raised his hand and asked.

"Brother! There is not much water in these two rivers after autumn. The river channel is full of rocks and the troops cannot be deployed. When attacking, it cannot form a local military advantage. If you are the commander of the Tartars, would you do such a stupid thing?"

"Master, can I ask?" Chen Liang raised his hand.

"Ask!"

"The food, combat supplies and workshops in Po Nu City are mainly concentrated in the north. What should I do if I am unfavorable during the war?"

"Isn't Hu Ming's troops stationed in the south now? When the enemy comes, they move south. When there is a problem with the first line of defense, they must be moved."

"Master, how many troops do you plan to stay in Ponucheng?" Long Tao raised his hand and asked worriedly.
