After Zhou Shao ridiculed Zhao Xi, he began to issue orders to Zhao Xi as a temporary general. When Zhao Xi was in Pingyang, he didn't dare to say anything nonsense. He nodded frequently, indicating that he had listened completely.

In addition, in the entire action plan, with the greatest risk in the task that Zhou Shao took, Zhao Xi knew very well that he felt that Zhou Shao was just an excessive speech, but in essence he was an open and honest person who was extremely brave and dared to take responsibility.

Zhao Xi was not wary of dealing with such people. The more he understood Zhou Shao, the more he felt that Zhou Shao was a rare general in Zhao State. Therefore, Zhao Xi not only did not care about Zhou Shao's verbal offense, but instead thought that if the action was successful, he would thank him heavily and recommended Zhou Shao to the prince to ensure that he could rise to a few levels.

The two of them decided to stop and then made a separate preparations. That day was another busy day, including Zhao Xi, Zhou Shao, and the prince. No one was idle and nervously prepared for the ugly actions the next day.

Zhou Shao gathered all the generals in the camp and assigned them tasks one by one. Because Zhou Shao himself had to take on the most important part of the military plan, he specially picked up Du Qing, the chief lieutenant of the Zhao army in the army, and ordered him to command the remaining troops and follow the prince and Zhao Xi to act together.

Waiting to break down the task, the generals left the camp, and Zhou Shao left Du Qing alone. Zhou Shao instructed him: "The senior doctor named Zhao Xi beside the prince is a famous person who shows off his verbal skills. When you lead the army to act, you should strictly follow the arrangements today. You must not be disturbed or obstructed by him. Have you listened?"

Du Qing was a young general who was only in his thirties. He personally participated in the battle of Mianchi and made great contributions on the battlefield of the surprise attack on Jiaoyang City. Therefore, he was rewarded and was also kept by Su Qin and continued to serve in the army.

Zhou Shao was worried that Du Qing could not hold back his temper because he was young, and that he was good at bravery and might not be able to be well competent in the upcoming military operations, so Zhou Shao repeatedly reminded him.

However, apart from Du Qing, Zhou Shao could not find a more suitable candidate in the army, because acting with Zhao Xi and the prince was to find generals of Zhao army like Du Qing, which would make Zhao Xi and the prince more reassuring.

Du Qing had just heard Zhou Shao’s arrangement, but the young general had a lot of doubts in his heart, because the task assigned to him by Zhou Shao was pretending to be embarrassed, which was very disproportionate to Du Qing’s spirit. However, Zhou Shao’s tone was particularly firm, and after repeatedly emphasizing it several times, Du Qing also remembered it firmly in his heart.

Du Qing had seen Zhao Xi, but never dealt with him. This person is very famous in Zhao State. He is a straight minister in the people and dares to give strong advice to the king. However, Zhou Shao asked Du Qing not to listen to any instructions from Zhao Xi. Why is this?

Du Qing stared at Zhou Shao with a confused look. Zhou Shao guessed Du Qing's psychology and ordered again: "I am afraid that General Du will listen to what he said just now, so I have to say it again. Doctor Zhao Xi is a civil servant. He is not good at military operations, but his people always speak randomly, interfering with the army's actions. It is the right choice for you to strictly carry out tasks. If you believe Zhao Xi's words, it will disrupt the operational deployment of the entire army and destroy this strict combat cooperation."

Du Qing vaguely understood Zhou Shao's concerns. He nodded slightly and replied, "So that's the case. Then I think you really have to be careful."

Zhou Shao was a little anxious. He was really worried about Zhao Xi's random intervention. This action plan was used in accordance with the two strategies of suspicion and luring of troops mentioned by Su Qin. It can be said that it is linked together. Once there is a problem in one of the links, the military operation will be defeated and the consequences will be unimaginable.

If Zhou Shao had to choose, of course he would rather choose to believe that Su Qin had followed him for so long and trust Su Qin's strategy. Although Zhao Xi, a local minister, Zhou Shao could not trust what he said and did.

Zhou Shao reminded Du Qing for the last time: "If General Du still puzzles, then let's just say that, just think that your ears are blocked. When the military operation begins, you turn a deaf ear to the words of the people around you, just thinking about the action plan you just deployed. As long as you can complete it without fail, you have made the first contribution."

After hearing Zhou Shao's subsequent words, Du Qing couldn't help laughing. In a hurry, Zhou Shao spoke in a slight manner, such as "blocking his ears" and so on, such as joking words between children. However, Du Qing also took this very seriously as Zhou Shao's instructions.

Zhou Shao worked hard for a day, and in the evening he closed his eyes in the camp early to rest. Thanks to his broad mind, Zhou Shao was still calm at the moment of such a tense moment, and after closing his eyes, he soon fell asleep.

In the second half of the night, he followed the guards into the tent, shook Zhou Shao's arm, and shouted: "General Zhou woke up, it's time to act."

Zhou Shao woke up from his dream in a daze. First of all, he was reluctant. He was about to curse a few times, but suddenly realized that he had asked the guards to call him on time. Then he thought of the next military operation, and Zhou Shao couldn't help but jump up.

Zhou Shao widened his eyes and asked the guards: "When is it? Is the ugly time here?"

The guard replied: "Report to the general, it's still two minutes away from the time of the Chou, but it's time for you to wake up."

Zhou Shao then breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "I'm scared to death. I thought it was too ugly!" He hurriedly ordered the guards to pass on the order: "All the people who follow me will gather at the East Gate immediately and wait for my order to take action."

After the guard obeyed the order, he was about to leave the tent, Zhou Shao remembered another thing, and he said, "Wait for a moment, where did I put my prince's robe? Find me."

The guard replied: "According to the deadlock's instructions, the young man placed it next to the bed in the inner room. The general could tell at a glance. Should I find someone to help the general dress?"

Zhou Shao waved his hand and said, "No need, go and pass the order. I will put on my own robe." As he said that, he walked into the inner room, grabbed a yellow robe worn by the prince from the edge of the bed, and then put it on his body clumsily.

This is also part of the action plan. Zhou Shao had to dress himself up as the prince and go to the enemy outside the east gate to ****. The prince's robe was obviously smaller than a big man like Zhou Shao, but he still pulled the robe and pulled it, and barely put it on his body.

Zhou Shao finally put on his clothes and walked outside the tent. Lanterns and torches were already set up outside the tent, and more than 200 selected military soldiers stood in the night.

The close guards who followed Zhou Shao saw Zhou Shao's appearance, a yellow robe wrapped tightly around their bodies, as if they would be torn apart with a slight movement, which was very ridiculous. They covered their mouths one after another and prevented themselves from laughing in front of General Zhou Shao.

Zhou Shao himself also felt very awkward, but for the sake of the entire action plan, he had to be bound by these. Not only that, there was a black silk cloth hanging in his ear, which was to be used to cover his face so that the enemy would not recognize him all at once. At this time, there was no need to cover it, so he hung it next to his ears. A black-faced man, his tight outfit, looked very funny under the light of the light.

Zhou Shao ordered the guards to bring his war horse over. He turned over the horse, then made a sign of departure, and ordered: "My sons, come with me, let's go to the enemy's formation and he will go."

More than 200 soldiers were all strong and strong. They all stepped on the war horses and came with Zhou Shao towards the east gate of Jinyang City. When they got there, Zhou Shao saw that more than twenty princes had already been waiting.

These servants were all wearing clothes they usually wore when serving the prince, and they all saluted Zhou Shao respectfully. Zhou Shao waved his hand to signal them to avoid the gift and asked them, "Doctor Zhao Xi has explained the details of the action to you, right?"

The attendants replied in unison: "The little one already understands it. Just wait for General Zhou to give orders, and then follow the general to go to war."

Zhou Shao nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself: "This Zhao Xi seems to be very serious. From the expressions and behaviors of these servants, it can be seen that they have carefully prepared."

For their safety reasons, Zhou Shao asked again: "Have you all ridden a horse? If anyone has not ridden it, stand up so as not to fall off the horse and be captured by others."

None of these servants stood up. Zhou Shao felt strange and asked, "It seems that you have all ridden horses, but you are by the prince's side all day long. Does the prince allow you to ride horses?"

An older servant replied: "General Zhou, don't worry, the people of Zhao State who can't ride horses now are a few. Only those nobles and officials in the office guard the carriages and disdain to ride horses. The people seek convenience, so no one does not ride horses."

Zhou Shao laughed and said knowingly: "It seems that you are all secretly learning to ride horses without hiding the prince. It doesn't matter, I am the same as you. I will not talk about the convenience of life. During this battle, I can't even ride a horse. In this era, isn't that going to die?"

After hearing Zhou Shao's words, the servants burst into laughter. Zhou Shao was very proud and instructed again: "After all you servants have never fought a war. Don't be scared to pee your pants when you see swords, guns, swords and halberds. Remember, it's okay to follow me closely."
