In the dark night, Ma Sui once wanted to lead his army into the camp, but the Fengxiang Army in the camp was already prepared, and the light problem made the attack more difficult.
More importantly, Xuan Jiu and more than a hundred soldiers had not yet The news, he didn't know whether it was dead or alive, so he could only think about countermeasures while sending troops to surround the Fengxiang Army camp, especially setting up heavy troops near several key entrances and exits to prevent anyone from escaping from the camp. .
A tooth general stepped forward and clasped his fists at the horse and said: "General, are we going to confront them here all night?
If you don't see it, we might as well find a way to get in.
The military camp is surrounded by wooden fences.
This thing is not strong.
Use a horse rope to trip it."
They fell down as soon as they were pulled.
It is a fool's errand for them to use this simple fence to defend themselves.
Please ask the general to give the order.
The general can just lead his troops to rush into the military camp and disperse Fengxiang's army."
Ma Sui shook his head and said: "My general's orders are to rescue General Xuanjiu and the hundred soldiers he brought, and to arrest Sha Zhali, the deputy envoy of Fengxiang Army, not to lead his army to attack Fengxiang Army.
Moreover, General Xuanjiu and There is no news about his 100 soldiers yet.
We cannot act rashly.
The army is not one person's army.
All actions of the escort must have orders from above.
The general cannot bear the crime of acting without permission."
General Ya said: "But General, Sha Zhali obviously wants to arrest him.
Judging from the current situation, Fengxiang Army has been controlled by him.
If we don't attack, it will be impossible to rescue General Xuanjiu and others. , let alone capture Sha Zhali."
"This is where I, the general, are in a dilemma."
Ma Sui sighed, and then ordered: "Herald, send someone to the city quickly to report to the king, saying that Shazhali resisted arrest and has taken control of all the troops of Fengxiang Army. older than me The two sides are currently facing each other across the wooden fence outside the military camp.
The life and death of General Xuanjiu and others are uncertain.
The general has not received the order from the king and does not dare to fight against the Fengxiang army privately.
How should the general handle it?
Please tell me, the king."
The herald clasped his fists and agreed: "Yes, General" In the military camp, Shazhali and his generals were also facing difficult choices at this time.
One of the generals said to Shazhali: "General, are we going to keep confronting the guards of the Regent's Palace outside like this?
To be honest, the longer the time goes on, the more disadvantageous the situation will be for us."
Another general said: "Brother, it's late at night and it's freezing cold.
Do you mean that we have to rush out and fight with them?
They are all cavalry.
They can fight if they want and run if they want.
What should we do?
If we can catch up in the wilderness, our infantry can only be beaten.
Now we are in a military camp, and there are simple defensive tools such as arrow towers and wooden fences that we can use.
It is not easy for them to rush in.
Staying in the military camp is at least safe.
Some" The subordinates were arguing about what was going to happen next.
Some people thought that they should go out and die, while others thought that they should not go out and die.
Now that the enemy was in darkness and we were clear, the risk of going out to fight was too high.
After arguing for a long time, there was still no feasible way to deal with the situation at hand.
The confidant will whisper to Sha Zhali: "General, their purpose is to arrest you, why don't we take the 100 people in the camp as hostages, send people out of the camp to negotiate with the leading generals outside, and threaten them to withdraw.
Ten miles, as long as they retreat ten miles, we can lead the cavalry to break out.
Breaking out is the only option in this situation.

If we continue to stay here, it will be a dead end."
Shazhali was puzzled and asked: "Why?"
The confidant general said: "General, now the regent is the boss in the court, and his orders are the will of the court.
If he wants to arrest you, it means that the court wants to arrest you.
If you don't run away, is there any other way to survive?"
Who do you expect to save you?
You really want to fight into Chang'an City.
This is impossible.
You have also seen the cavalry outside.
They are just creating a momentum.
It has scared the brothers so much that their legs and feet are weak.
Fighting them is not fighting, but seeking death.
Now we can only run away with the cavalry, leaving the infantry and cavalry to run fast.
Now we have more than two thousand cavalry, as long as we can If we find a place to settle down, we will have a chance to gain a foothold.
We can also contact other local vassal towns to fight against the imperial court.
Only in this way can we have a way to survive."
Sha Zhali thought about what his trusted general said, nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, but what if they don't agree to withdraw ten miles?"
"We have to send people to give it a try.
If they don't agree to withdraw ten miles, we can think of other ways.
It's better than staying here and confronting them."
Shazhali agreed: "Okay, who can I send?"
"It would have been nice if the general had not killed Huangfu Wen.
He is the best candidate to negotiate.
But since he is already dead, it is useless to say more.
It is better to send Judge Tian Jiye there."
Sha Zhali thought for a while and agreed: "That's the only way to call Judge Tian Jiye over."
Soon, a middle-aged civil servant came over under the leadership of several soldiers.
This was Judge Tian Jiye.
When he saw Sha Zhali, he kept nagging: "General Sha, what are you doing now?
You are taking the soldiers with you."
A confrontation between the imperial army and the imperial army will have no good outcome.
The official has already heard what happened.
Having said that, the Regent's Palace has sent people to arrest you, so just go with them.
The most the court can do is demote your official position and demote you to the border.
Why do you need to cause trouble that will never end?
By doing so, you will not only put yourself at risk.
Once you get in, you will drag all the soldiers to follow you to Huangquan Road."
Due to Sha Zhali's power and power, none of the thoughtful generals below dared to say these words.
Most of the other generals did not think of this.
But now after Judge Tian Jiye said it, most of the generals present understood Sha Zha.
Li led them to a path of no return.
On the spot, several generals became hostile to Shazhali and began to make moves.
Sha Zhali said angrily: "I don't want this either.
Who told them to arrest me without asking any questions?
I, the general, can't just sit back and wait for death.

The situation that has come to this is not what I want to see.
I don't want to pull the trigger."
I want you all to die with me, but things have come to this One step, it doesn't mean that if you don't follow me and make trouble in the court, I will let you go.
If we want to survive, we can only send people out to negotiate with the leading generals outside, take the one hundred people we besieged as hostages, and threaten them to withdraw.
As long as they retreat ten miles, we can break through.
Get out, we are all in the same boat now.
If the boat sinks, all of us will die, so if you don’t want to die, you can only follow me.
Sir, now I can only trouble you to go out and negotiate with the leading general outside. , tell them that this general does not I want to rebel, and I have no intention of confronting the imperial army.
I just want to be treated fairly.
The one hundred people sent by the Regent's Palace to arrest me are currently under our control.
If we want them to survive, and if we want to prevent this general from rebelling, we must Retreat the troops ten miles first, and then we can talk after the troops have withdrawn."
Tian Jiye heard the words and agreed: "Well, since General Sha thinks highly of Xiaguan, Xiaguan can only risk his life and make this trip."
Shazhali nodded: "The stables are troublesome to Mr.
Tian, so please invite Mr.
Tian.
My general's patience is limited.
If you don't come back before dawn, I will have no choice but to kill those one hundred people first, and then raise an army to rebel against the court."
"good" Regent's Palace.
Zhao Ziliang was woken up just as he fell asleep.
After receiving the news that the Fengxiang army led by Sha Zhali was confronting Ma Sui's escort army in the military camp, his sleepiness disappeared instantly.
He immediately got dressed and went to the front hall of the palace, the regent's palace.
Other officials also got the news one after another and hurriedly put on their clothes and rushed over.
Zhao Ziliang walked up and down the lobby with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to solve this matter.
Du Fu turned around and looked around and found that most of the royal officials had arrived, so he cupped his hands to Zhao Ziliang and said, "Your Majesty, General Ma Sui is still waiting for your Majesty's order.
Now that most of the colleagues have arrived, do you think we should discuss it quickly?"
Let’s discuss what to do about this matter.”
Zhao Ziliang stopped and turned around to look, then returned to his seat and sat down.
He pressed his hands to everyone and said, "Sit down, everyone.
I believe you all know the news that Sha Zhali resisted arrest and led troops to fight against the escort.
This matter has a great impact."
It’s bad.
If it’s not handled properly, there will be endless troubles.
Now let’s discuss how to handle this matter.”
Gao Shang stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, judging from the humble ministers, there are only two attitudes towards this matter between the Prince Regent's Palace and the imperial court.
Compromise and never condone it.
If you compromise, although this affair can be settled, the prestige of the Prince Regent's Palace will be compromised."
It will be greatly affected.
The Regent's Palace will not even be able to get a small Deputy Envoy of Jiedu.
In the future, No one can take the Regent's Palace seriously.
The local officials and generals in the vassal towns will probably not carry out the government orders and edicts issued by the Palace.
It can be said that the purpose of coming to Chang'an by the King and us will be in vain.
My opinion is that we must resolutely crack down on this kind of behavior, never compromise, never tolerate, never condone, and must be severely punished.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziliang looked at the other officials and asked, "What do you think of what Master Gao said?"
Li Mi stood up and cupped his hands and said: "The humble minister supports Mr.
Gao's opinion.

This matter does not need to be considered at all.
If a general dares to ignore the emperor's imperial edict and oral instructions, how will the emperor react?
Now the king represents the emperor and regent.
The palace represents the imperial court, so the ministers firmly support no compromise on this matter, but more importantly, how should we deal with it, let General Ma Sui Lead the troops into the barracks and wipe out all the Fengxiang troops, or find a way to kill only Sha Zhali, or execute them all together with his confidants.
If you choose to wipe out all the Fengxiang troops, the matter will be simple.
Directly order General Ma Sui.
Fighting in, if we can distinguish Fengxiang Army from Shazhali, then we must find a way to divide Shazhali and all the soldiers of Fengxiang Army and isolate him
