Chapter 105: The Cold Wind Rises from the Grassland, Military Discussion (3)
After Zhang Ping'an finished speaking, he lowered his head and paced back and forth on the podium. Fortunately, the old brothers understood his habits and knew that his body language showed that he was thinking about problems, so everyone waited for him to speak quietly.
"This way, I will leave you two thousand teaching teams. After the meeting, you will select 30,000 people from the young and strong people in Ponu City for training. After the spring, let the farmers go back and concentrate after the autumn harvest. Zhao Guangming led a thousand ghost sword teams, and then selected 2,000 people from the personal barracks to join the ghost sword team. He usually listened to Yin's orders and obeyed Chen Pai's orders in wartime."
Ru Deyin raised his hand again. "Master, what should I do if the children of the Golden Wolf Camp?"
"I looked at the statistics. There were 17,000 boys aged 14 to 16. I took 7,000 people away, and the rest were under the control of the Silver City. They could only be used when Ponu City entered the third line of defense. There were 48,000 people under the age of 13. In wartime, under the leadership of the supervision team, they maintained the public order of Ponu City. When the war was in a hurry, they went to Nancheng to guard the grain warehouse and military supplies. Before the men in Ponu City died, they were not allowed to go to the battlefield!"
"What is the task of the detective office during war after the siege?" Xu Yian raised his hand.
"The operation team of the Detective Office and the Intelligence Department protects the Civil General Li Yamen and the General Staff Department during wartime. Others stay at their posts!"
When Zhang Ping'an saw Yang Wei raise his hand, he immediately stopped his question. "I know what you are going to ask. During the war, seven senior craftsmen in the glasses workshop moved to the intelligence department. No other questions are allowed!"
The commanders had long been warned by Marshal Zhang and knew that Yang Wei had the weapon of killing against the Jurchen Tartars. Seeing that Zhang Ping'an was so cautious, he consciously put away his curiosity.
Seeing that it was noon, Gu Xin whispered to remind Zhang Ping'an. Marshal Zhang was also tired at this time, so he announced loudly: "We have arranged a place for you to rest after dinner. Before three minutes, we will discuss dealing with the Jurchen coalition forces! The meeting will be dispersed!"
....................................
In the afternoon military discussion, Zhang Ping'an might have been too tired to stand in the morning, so he asked someone to set up a soft chair and a small table on the podium. As soon as he came on the stage, Chen Pear couldn't wait to raise his hand and demand a speech. Zhang Ping'an nodded and acquiesced to his request.
"Master General! If you stay in the army all the way, I promise to stick to the end of Ponucheng."
"Tell me your reasons?"
"I carefully calculated at noon. The general made the auxiliary soldiers and young soldiers become war soldiers. It would be better for the auxiliary soldiers who have been on the battlefield. The auxiliary soldiers and young soldiers who have not been on the battlefield, even if they are well trained, joining the combat troops will not only not improve the combat effectiveness of the combat troops, but will instead reduce the combat effectiveness of the combat troops."
Chen Pear paused for a moment. He wanted to see Zhang Ping'an's reaction. Zhang Ping'an asked him to continue with encouraging eyes.
"If more than 50% of the veterans passed through the battle formation and the veterans led the new soldiers, the combat effectiveness of the troops would not be greatly reduced. Young and strong can first use auxiliary soldiers in wartime. As long as they go to the battlefield, they will be trained quickly. At this time, in the end, they will become qualified combat soldiers!"
"Okay! I agree, Xu Zhen's army joins the defensive force in Ponucheng!" Zhang Ping'an admired Chen Piao's theory of gradually training recruits in the war and agreed to his request in one go.
Seeing that everyone has no new construction for guarding Ponu City. Zhang Ping'an sorted out his ideas, got up from the seat, and paced back and forth on the podium.
"Let me talk about the arrangement of the direction of the Jurchen Tartars! The ancient and new pictures are replaced!"
A Dingnu City defense map made everyone's eyes lit up. Three black arrows indicate the enemy's attack route, and the red cross icon indicates that this is an obstacle course. The red circle indicates * explosion point.
"The strategic position of Dingnu City is important, which is reflected in the first place: the crossbows fired from Dingnu City just cover the weak defenses in the north of my attacking group. Second: If the Jurchen Tatars want to attack Nu City, they will not be able to pass through the Yamaguchi guarded by my attacking group if they do not take Dingnu City."
Zhang Ping'an pointed to the black arrow north of the map: "If the enemy along this road wants to attack Dingnu City, they can only pass through our preset defense belt. Because, although these hills are not high, the terrain is steep, which is not conducive to the passage of gathering troops and heavy weapons. Due to the number of people limits, small troops cannot pose a substantial threat to Dingnu City."
Zhang Ping'an pointed to several red dotted areas of the map.
"If the enemy is not afraid of the price, gather troops here. If it is less than 10,000, let them gather. If you have enough 10,000, hey...hey...hey...hey...you will destroy them!"
Zhang Ping'an looked at Zhang Li proudly. "If the Jurchens die fewer, you will feed me the horses!"
"Don't worry, handsome man! I'll leave it to me!" Zhang Li patted his chest and promised loudly.
Zhang Ping'an pointed at the Zhennucheng area on the south side with a teaching stick. "The south side of Zhennucheng is the junction of the Jurchen coalition and the Lin Danhan Mongolian coalition, and it should be the weakest link on the battlefield. Because these two gangs of robbers do not trust each other. To avoid misunderstandings and conflicts, a buffer zone must be left. Zhennucheng is just here!"
Zhang Ping'an pointed to the area between Zhennucheng and the attacking group. "This is why I left two warriors in Zhennucheng. If the enemy dares to insert it, come here. At most 20,000 people can come in this place, and our army can attack this lonely army on both sides."
Zhang Ping'an pointed to the black offensive arrows in the middle and south. "I will use the most powerful offensive group of the Slave Army to consume them in the early stages of the battle. Wait for the time to be ripe and defeat them in one fell swoop. I have to think about the specific plan again."
Zhang Ping'an might feel tired and returned to his seat to sit down. "This period is the best opportunity for our army to practice troops. I plan to conduct military exercises at the end of the month. The defending troops practice artillery battles and bomb drops; the offensive troops practice marching and assaults."
Zhang Ping'an picked up the tea bowl and took a sip: "I'll talk about the salary payment. I have approved the report of this matter by the civil yamen. You have seen all the samples of silver coins and gold coins cast by the civil yamen. I will talk about this matter roughly!"
Zhang Ping'an glanced at the audience with his eyes and saw everyone's expectation, so he smiled.
"Auxiliary soldiers, half a liang of silver coins are from fifteen to twenty per person according to military merit. The level of the war soldiers is divided into four levels of twenty to sixty silver coins. The officers: the deputy general to the general is divided into six levels, seventy to one hundred silver coins; the deputy general to the thousand general is sent out one or two gold coins, fifty to one hundred gold coins. As the commander, one hundred and five to two hundred gold coins."
Zhang Ping'an then explained: "I have also approved the military merit assessment report compiled by the General Staff. Gold and silver coins will be distributed according to the size of military merits."
Zhang Ping'an suddenly stood up with a gloomy face and began to call out: "Hu Ming, Wu Tianxing, Huang Zhi!"
When the three of them heard the tone of Marshal Zhang, they knew something bad. They immediately stood up and stood at attention.
"What do you guys want to do? My slave army is not the Ming Dynasty official army. All the things in our army are carried out according to the system. Whoever is the damn, you must dare to destroy the system and challenge the bottom line of the system. I don't kill anyone, so let him stay in the snake cave for a few days. Reflect on it!"
The three of them shivered at the same time. They all heard a rumor that Lu Ruge's third uncle was only in the snake cave. After only one day of staying in the snake cave, he went crazy. The Jurchen spy leader, who had the most nerves, only took three days to talk crazy and said everything his wife was wearing.
The Grand Marshal's hand was too ruthless, so the three men cursed the heavens and earth, and expressed their heartbrokenness: they firmly support the Grand Marshal's wise decision, follow the Grand Marshal's route, and fight for selfish thoughts.
Zhang Ping'an's face was grim and his heart was filled with laughter. He pretended to be impatient and waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, everyone writes me a book of sins that touches the depths of his heart. Don't ask anyone to write it on their behalf! If I see who is..., hey... hey! You know the consequences! Sit down!"
