Zhang Shun said that he wanted to hand over command to Xu Ning was not a whim, but made a very detailed consideration.

There are many people under him who can fight, and there are many who are good at placing troops and formations. However, there are very few people who can command the battles of the large army. It can be said that the real coach is only Xu Ning, so Zhang Shu had already thought about giving this position to him a long time ago. However, when he met, he found that he was not in high spirits and was thinking about A Shu's escape. Zhang Shu was also worried that this inner demon would make him feel confused, so he simply handed over the task of destroying A Shu. This battle was very beautiful, and his command process was remarkable so far, so Zhang Shu could finally feel at ease to hand over the command of this war to him.

Xu Ning's face turned red in an instant, but soon returned to normal. He bowed to Zhang Shunshen, "Everything depends on the prince. Since the prince trusts him, I will definitely fight this battle even if I am confused."

Zhang Shun seemed quite relaxed, but after a smile, he said, "Although Kublai Khan claims to have a army of 500,000, it is actually a question mark for how many people can fight. They also claim to have artillery, but only five, and each one is at least 3,000 kilograms. In order to avoid explosions, they can only thicken the cannon barrels constantly, and eventually become that way. Moreover, the range of this kind of cannon is a pile of scrap iron compared to ours. You said we now have 700 laughing cannons.

, Can they really have a day to turn around? On the grassland, they always feel how powerful their cavalry are, but I really don’t know how powerful they are. We already have heavy firepower to deal with their cavalry, how long can they last? So you don’t need to care so much, just keep a normal mind. As for Kublai Khan’s real situation and some training and equipment of the Yuan army, I have also found an insider for you. He knows the Yuan army very well. You can ask him any questions."

"Oh? Who is that? The general of the Yuan army?" Xu Ning also felt enlightened. In fact, he didn't care much about knowing everything about Kublai Khan. He just relied on the intuition of a leading general, but he still liked to know more about the other party's situation.

"Oh, he is outside, you can meet soon." After saying that, Zhang Shun said to the outside, "Come on, go and invite the Taoist priest over."

After a while, someone walked in slowly outside. He was dressed as a Taoist priest, and after he came in, he just bowed his head, "Prince, I'm here."

Xu Ning didn't know this person, so Zhang Shun introduced them to "This one is Xu Ning."

"It turns out to be the Grand Marshal Xu Ning. Your name is so well-known. I am Po Xuanzi."

"Po Xuanzi?" Xu Ning was stunned for a moment and immediately remembered who this person was. As a general around Zhang Shu, there were a few people who didn't know that there was a Taoist priest named Po Xuanzi around A Shu. He had been giving advice to A Shu, but after this battle, he could not find his trace. Many people guessed that he had escaped. Now they realized that he had arrived at Zhang Shu, but why did he surrender at this time? Do you have other thoughts? At this moment, Xu Ning's mind was spinning rapidly, and messy thoughts came out one by one.

Zhang Shun also saw Xu Ning's expression change, and smiled and said, "Don't have to think randomly. The Taoist priest and I met him a long time ago. I also sent him to A Shu."

"What?" Xu Ningke was really confused at this moment.

Zhang Shun then continued to explain, "When I was fighting guerrillas in Fancheng, I met the Taoist priest. At that time, he was practicing Taoism in an ordinary Taoist temple, but overnight the Tartars killed all the people there. I happened to lead my troops to pass there, which saved his life."

Po Xuanzi had already spoken at this time, "Hi, it's a past that is unbearable to look back on. In fact, the Tartars still have some incest to Taoist priests. After all, the old Tartar Temujin still has some relationship with Taoist priests. But they casually killed the people at the foot of the mountain. That day, the entire village was slaughtered by them. The channel also led the disciples down the mountain to take revenge out of righteous indignation. But unexpectedly, they were no match for their cavalry at all. So they simply met the prince and escaped their lives, but the others were all dead."

"So, you went to A Shu to be undercover? Become ours? Then you really made great contributions." After all, Xu Ning was also a person who had seen the world. He immediately came up with the key. Zhang Shun has always known the Yuan army for many years. It seems that it was his contribution.

But Po Xuanzi still smiled bitterly, "Actually, I didn't do anything, I just did what a Han man should do. The one who really made great contributions is you soldiers on the front line. Who am I? Just a person who lives in the world with a licking face."

Since the two of them already knew each other's affairs and were intimate when they spoke, Xu Ning naturally wanted to ask the Yuan people what they didn't know. Po Xuanzi thought for a while before saying, "Actually, there is no better way for the Yuan people, but they have been learning our tactics recently, and have also made a large number of pure iron shields. According to them, it is a weapon that can defend our muskets."

"Defend our musket?" Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "It is very likely, because the lead bullets we used really cannot break the pure iron shield. In fact, our lead bullets are powerless to many things. But what I don't understand is that since they have come up with a solution, why hasn't promoted it on a large scale? They have not used it officially yet, what are they waiting for?"

Po Xuanzi smiled slightly, "It's nothing strange, because there are not so many iron ore in the territory of the Yuan people, and the few iron outputs are used to make weapons, so even if they know, they can't promote them in large quantities. Another problem is that they have made the shield a little heavy, each of which is about 30 or 50 kilograms, and ordinary soldiers can't handle it, so they still like to use shield cars to defend, but shield cars cannot stop artillery, which is their biggest problem."

Zhang Shun was not surprised by this. After all, even the guns from later generations could not penetrate the heavy steel plates, let alone the lead bullets nowadays? There is still a long way to go to have more terrifying weapons.
