The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 288: The End of the Rebellion - Luoyang March
[In September 762, Shi Chaoyi, who was being beaten to death by Li Guangbi in Xuzhou and Li Baoyu in Taiyuan, heard that Emperor Suzong had died.]

[He wanted to take advantage of the chaotic period of the Tang Dynasty's transition of power to attack, but because his own strength was not enough to defeat the Tang army, he thought of another move, and united with the Huihe people in the north to attack the Tang Dynasty together.]

[At this time, the Uighur Khan Biljaque, who was on good terms with Emperor Suzong, had died, and his eldest son Yehu had also died. The Uighurs supported another son of the Khan, who was called Dengli Khan.]

[After listening to Shi Chaoyi's persuasion, Dengli Khan immediately led an army of 100,000 to attack southward.]

[The whole Tang Dynasty was shocked, and Emperor Daizong of Tang quickly sent people to comfort the troops and contact Dengli Khan.]

[Dengli Khan asked to meet his father-in-law Pugu Huai'en and his mother, but Pugu Huai'en knew the benefits and disadvantages of associating with the Hu people and did not dare to go.]

[Tang Daizong granted him a special certificate of immunity from death and issued a decree to hasten his departure.]

【Pugu Huai'en then went to Xinzhou to lobby the Khan. 】

[Historical records show that "the Khan was greatly pleased and asked for peace and helped in the fight against Chaoyi"]

……

On the canopy.

Li Yu slammed the memorial hard on the table!
"The Huihe people want to go south from the Fen River, pass through Puguan and enter Guanzhong! Then from Guanzhong through Tongguan, they will directly attack Luoyang!"

"What do they want to do? Are they going to take back the two capitals again?"

All the ministers in the hall bowed their heads and remained silent.

……

Datang.

Li Shimin squinted his eyes and looked at the sky.

Are the Uighurs in Xinzhou now?

The shortest way to get from Xinzhou to Luoyang is to take Danghe Taihang Pass, without having to enter Guanzhong at all!

What's more, the Guanzhong area is now completely under the control of the emperor and is not in the midst of war.

If the 100,000-strong Uighur army passes by, it will be nothing short of a military disaster!
The Huihe people sent out a large army just to rob! They didn't care whether they were helping Shi Chaoyi attack the Tang Dynasty or helping the Tang Dynasty attack Shi Chaoyi.

What they care about is leading an army of 100,000 to plunder the Central Plains and obtain enough spoils!

So it doesn't matter which side you help fight, as long as you can plunder.

"The barbarians are beasts, they fear power but not virtue!"

……

On the canopy.

Wearing a fur hat and leather boots.

The Hu Khan sitting in the big tent laughed as he looked at the letter in his hand:

"The emperor really took great pains!"

A Hu person in the account asked:

"What does the Emperor of Tang say?"

Dengli Khan threw the letter away and sneered:
"He suggested that we go from Xinzhou through Taiyuan, directly out of Jingxing, into Hebei, and then go to Luoyang from Hebei."

The Hu man scratched his head and looked at the Khan.

Dengli Khan twirled his beard and said:
"There are still many places in Hebei that are controlled by the rebels. The more we plunder, the greater the blow to the rebels."

"That's a good plan."

The scene changes.

Li Yu's face was gloomy, holding the letter, he said in a deep voice:
"They refused to leave through Jingjin, and they also refused to follow the western foot of Taihang Mountain straight to Heyin and head to Luoyang."

A purple-robed minister in the palace said:
"Going from Heyin to Luoyang will deal the greatest blow to the rebels. Not only can we attack Luoyang directly, but we can even cut the rebels in two."

"But there is a huge problem with this route: the area it passes through is too barren to be conducive to plunder."

"The Huihe people's attitude is very clear."

Li Yu looked at the letter in his hand, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

The camera turned and a map of the territory march floated in the air.

The Uighurs traveled from Xinzhou through the Fen River Valley, and after reaching Hedong, they turned south.

From Dayang, north of Sanmenxia, ​​we crossed the river to Taiyuan Warehouse.

Then stay here and wait for cooperation from other armies.

……

[On October 21, Emperor Daizong of Tang, Li Yu, ordered his eldest son, Prince Yong Li Shi, to be the chief commander and Pugu Huai'en to be the deputy commander, commanding more than 100,000 troops from Hedong, Shuofang, and other camps, as well as the Uighur cavalry, to launch an offensive against Shi Chaoyi's troops.]

……

{Another incident happened here. When Li Shi met Dengli Khan again, he performed equal etiquette. Dengli took the opportunity to find fault and criticized Li Kuo for not performing the same dance ceremony as a subject performing before a monarch.}
{The two sides argued for a while, and finally Yi Dengli became angry and punished Li Shi's subordinates Yao Ziang, Wei Ju, Wei Shaohua, and Li Jin with a stick.}
{Each of them was beaten 100 times, and Li Shi was expelled from the camp on the grounds that he was young and ignorant.}
{After one night, Wei Ju and Wei Shaohua died of their injuries.}
{It has only been a few years, and the former Heavenly Khan has become so servile.}
{Even the Tang Dynasty had its moments of humiliation.}
……

Datang.

Li Shimin once again recalled the humiliating Weishui Alliance.

Such a result is an intolerable humiliation for both Li Shi and the Tang Dynasty!
However, I can only endure it...

Because they need help!

Because... the Tang Dynasty can't afford to offend the Huihe now...

An indescribable sense of absurdity arose in Li Shimin's heart.

After so many years...there are still people that the Tang Dynasty cannot afford to offend!

How could my Great Tang Dynasty fall to this point!
"Damn An Lushan Rebellion!"

"Damn Li Longji!"

……

Tang Dezong Period
Li Shi looked at the sky and suddenly said:

"Did I do the right thing?" "If I had lowered my head at that time, would Wei Zhongcheng and Wei Sheren have survived?"

Beside him, Li Mi, a man with white hair and youthful face, said slowly:
"A gentleman will be crowned even after death."

"Your Majesty, did Wei Zhongcheng and Wei Sheren have any complaints during or after the punishment?"

Li Shi lowered his head, a bitter taste rising in his mouth.

"No... no complaints..."

Li Mi stroked his long beard, looked at the sky and said in a deep voice:
"If your majesty had bowed his head at that time, the dignity of the Tang Dynasty would have been completely destroyed."

"I believe it. Wei Zhongcheng and Wei Sheren would rather die than see Your Majesty bow down!"

……

Southern Song Dynasty, Gaozong period
"Do you think Dezong should have bowed his head at that time?"

Zhao Gou put his hands behind his back and looked at the sky, and suddenly asked Qin Hui.

Qin Hui smiled slightly and said without hesitation:
"Tang Dezong had no reason not to bow to Dengli Khan."

Zhao Gou raised his eyebrows and continued listening.

"Personally, Dengli Khan is my uncle."

"On the other hand, Emperor Dezong was only a prince at the time, while the other party was the monarch of a country."

"In reality, the Tang Dynasty was completely at a disadvantage at that time because it relied entirely on the Uighurs for rescue."

"Under such circumstances, Emperor Dezong still put on an air of hostility and did not treat others as equals."

"The anger of Dengli Khan is actually the righteous anger for dignity!"

With his back to Qin Hui, Zhao Gou's mouth twitched constantly.

"...My dear...you are a true gentleman..."

……

[On October 762, AD, the Tang army and the Anshi rebels fought a decisive battle at Hengshui. The rebels were defeated, of them were captured and killed, and Shi Chaoyi fled north.]

[The Tang army took advantage of the situation to recover Dongjing, Heyang, and the states of Bian, Zheng, Hua, and Wei.]

【Xiang, Zhao, Ding, Shen, Heng, Yi and other states surrendered. 】

[While Pugu Huai'en was fighting in the front, the rear had already begun plundering.]

……

On the canopy.

Luoyang.

The flame was like a red dragon, more than ten thousand feet long, circling around the majestic Kyoto.

Countless scales extended from the fire dragon's body, expanding and contracting upwards.

The flower that formed the flame became the pillar of flame.

The pillar of fire swirled in the wind and roared.

The blue bricks and tiles were all reflected in a bright red color.

The red firelight illuminated the bloody heads nearby.

Their faces still retained a fresh expression of shock.

Following the fixed gaze.

A group of Hu people wearing fur clothes were waving butcher knives and looting wantonly.

Next to him, a Tang army soldier was doing the same thing.

……

[“The Huihe entered Tokyo and killed and looted at will, killing tens of thousands of people and burning for several days.”]

[“Shuofang and Shen Ce armies also regarded Dongjing, Zheng, Bian, and Ruzhou as bandit territories, and looted wherever they went for three months. Every house was emptied, and the people were all clothed in paper clothes.”]

[More than 10,000 people died.] 】

……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Li Yuan suddenly stood up, his hair standing on end with anger and his eyes bloodshot as he pointed his sword at the sky!

"puff!"

The blood in his chest was churning and he fainted without uttering a word.

In the moment before he fell into coma, Li Yuan had only one thought in his mind.

It’s over, the Tang Dynasty is really over.

……

[In the first month of 763 AD, Shi Chaoyi was desperate and went north to Xi and Khitan. On the way, he was caught up by Li Huaixian, the prefect of Fanyang in Yan, who was planning to return to Tang, and was forced to commit suicide.]

[Li Huaixian beheaded Shi Chaoyi and surrendered. ]

【Since then, the An-Shi Rebellion, which lasted for more than eight years, finally came to an end and the dust settled at this moment. 】

[In March, Emperor Daizong held a state funeral for Emperor Xuanzong and Emperor Suzong.]

【The two coffins that had been kept in Daming Palace for nearly a year were finally buried. 】

[In July, the ministers presented the title of "Baoying Yuansheng Wenwuxiao Emperor" to the emperor Li Yu]

[In the same month, Emperor Daizong of Tang issued an edict granting amnesty to the whole country, changing the reign title to Guangde, and rewarding all the generals who had contributed to the suppression of the rebellion, including the Uighur Khan and his generals, with promotions and titles.]

……

　Starting from Daizong, the situation was just about robbing Peter to pay Paul.

　　As the demolition continued, the Tang Dynasty collapsed.
