Cheng Min was a little confused after receiving the news. He thought that coming to Jinyang was a good job. He drank and wrote poems every day, was arty and lived a good life with unlimited scenery. When he first heard that King Zhao from Ganyang County across the street They sent troops to the city frequently, and when they seemed to have evil intentions, they were at a loss.
Cheng Min has some knowledge and has read several biographies. Since enemy soldiers appear, he has to take a look at them both emotionally and rationally to be aware of them.
There were not many enemy soldiers. A ten-man captain led his ten-man team outside the shooting range of Jinyang City, gearing up, shooting bows and arrows, and his provocation was obvious.
Cheng Min watched for a while and found that these people had no intention of attacking. After thinking about it, he thought of the allusions in the biography and said to Le Weisheng and Fu Liang: "This is a sign of the enemy's decline. The plan is just a ten-man team, so what if we really attack the city gate? These people alone cannot open the door of Jinyang. King Zhao wants to use a small number of troops to contain us. The army must not let up, so that he can find a flaw in it. Haha, King Zhao is indeed a young boy who has never been on the battlefield. How can he hide this provocation from me? ”
< p> Le Weisheng said: "In the battle of King Zhao's Northland, the Northeast Iron Cavalry, which was defeated and retreated, expanded its territory for more than a thousand miles. It is by no means an ordinary person. He must have a deep meaning in doing this."Cheng Min's face was not very good. He was ordered by Emperor Yan Ping to parachute the Huben Army as commander, but the Huben Army only listened to the words of King Li Jun of Jin, even though he held the tiger talisman and the imperial edict in his hand, forcing these soldiers to have no choice but to He obeyed the order, but privately these people still looked down upon him and often made remarks about him, which made him very unhappy. What Le Weisheng said was just to express his opinion, but in Cheng Min's eyes, it was very harsh.
"General Le, do you think I don't understand the art of war?"
Hearing this, Le Weisheng had no choice but to apologize and say, "General, that's not what I meant."
"It's best if it's not."
When Fu Liang saw this, he smoothed things over and said, "According to Old Fu, Cheng Shuai's words are reasonable. This also means that the tribe has already been subdued by our prince and lost his troops and generals. Even the Great Khan has moved his head. Most of these Northeast cavalry are just defeated soldiers who were taken advantage of by that boy King Zhao. Although King Zhao has been stationed in Ganyang for sixteen years and is older than our prince, he has no real experience. He has been on the battlefield. Maybe because the old queen died just now, he felt that his position was unstable and he was eager to show off, so he thought of stirring up trouble. The relationship between King Zhao and our prince was so good, how could he really attack Jinyang? ?”
Fu Liang’s presence on the left and right of our prince made Cheng Min very upset. Although Fu Liang agreed with his point of view, Cheng Min hated him even more when he mentioned Li Jun.
As a result, Le Weisheng couldn't say anything else. Cheng Min felt that he had suppressed the thorn, and was barely satisfied, so he ordered: "Ignore it."
On the second night, the number of invading enemy soldiers increased to two dozen.Captain, the scout reported the news to Cheng Min. Cheng Min was a little impatient when he was woken up from his sleep and lost his temper. How much trouble could two ten-man teams make?

On the night of the third day, the number increased to five captains of ten. The scout risked being reprimanded and reported the matter again. Cheng Min said: "This is a trick of the enemy to make us suspicious. They deliberately let us commit suicide." What if there are 500, 500, or 50,000 people who are in a chaotic situation? There is a city defense in Jinyang! What are you so nervous about? Are they not just flesh and blood?"
"But they are beyond the range of the bow and arrow.
Cheng Min became even more angry when he heard this, and said: "So that's why you woke me up in the middle of the night? I thought they had attacked the city, but they were still out of range! Then tell me!" What's the use of this? Do you want me to go out and catch people? They will rush in when I open the gate, right? Do you have any idea about what should be reported and what should not be reported? The Hu Ben troops brought out by King Jin turned out to be just cowards and cowards."
The scout was so scolded that he did not dare to raise his head, but he was very angry. He was only responsible for reporting abnormalities and how to judge. Everything is the responsibility of the coach, but he was scolded for being loyal to his duties, and he had to bear the brunt of being a dishonorable coward and coward, not to mention how sad he was.
On the night of the fourth day, the enemy army appeared as scheduled, and the number seemed to have increased to a hundred-man squad. Out of duty, the scout took the risk and woke up Cheng Min. Cheng Min, who had been disturbed from his sweet dreams for several days, had already arrived. On the verge of anger, after listening to the scout's report, he directly ordered the scout to be dragged out and beaten with twenty boards, and then went to sleep.
On the fifth and sixth days... Even if every scout came in to report, they would be hit with a military stick. They were loyal to their duties and continued to report the information they knew to the commander. Regarding their persistence, Cheng Min only felt that they were rigid, uninformed, and had fallen into the enemy's trap. They were all a bunch of idiots...
Cheng Min, who had not slept well for more than ten days in a row, was already in a state of mental breakdown. Being hit, he was so angry that he directly issued a death order. Unless the enemy attacked the city, no matter where King Zhao's army appeared in any corner or how many people there were, there was no need to pay attention.
Jinyang is at the forefront of the border with Yiyun, so as long as King Zhao does not attack Jinyang, there is actually no need to pay attention to all the tricks. Not to mention that there are no roads leading to the hinterland states and counties. Even if there are roads, what does it have to do with Jinyang? That was a matter for the governor of other states and counties, so what did it have to do with him, Cheng Min?
Cheng Min is not Li Han. He only needs to do the things assigned to him by Emperor Yan Ping. He really does not have the ability and does not care about matters in other states and counties.
More than ten days passed, and suddenly one day a soldier covered in blood came from the south city gate and brought Zhengping with him.After hearing the news that the county had been conquered and occupied by King Zhao, everyone in the Huben army looked in disbelief. Zhengping County was still under the protection of Jinyang, so why did King Zhao occupy Zhengping silently?
However, Cheng Min was indifferent after receiving the news. Faced with the suggestions from Le Weisheng and others that he send troops to recapture Zhengping, he listened in one ear and out the other. He didn't take it seriously at all. He just said that he must first Report to Emperor Yan Ping for decision. Everyone tried to persuade him, but there was nothing he could do.
Cheng Min’s idea was to ignore the matter and ignore it. What does the breach of Zhengping County have to do with him? Regarding the grain road and the hinterland, it was clearly the governor of Zhengping County who had neglected his duties, but these people blamed him. It was really unreasonable.
