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

Chapter 329 The Tang Dynasty came to an end.

[A piece of music helped the Tang army to make a comeback, but it seems that this comeback would have been better if it had not happened. ]

[On the fifth day of April in 881 AD, the government troops approached Chang'an fiercely. Huang Chao knew that he could not defend Chang'an, so he retreated to Bashang in the east of Chang'an. ]

[At that time, Zheng Ting's general Tang Hongfu and Jingyuan Jiedushi Cheng Zongchu were the first to enter the city, followed closely by Yiwu Army Jiedushi Wang Chucun.]

[The people of Chang'an, who had endured Huang Chao's four-month looting, cheered when they heard the arrival of the Tang army, and welcomed the return of the royal army with food and drink.] [Some even threw stones and tiles at the Qi army, but they had no idea that they had sent away the devil and welcomed the plague god.]

……

On the canopy.

First, he ignored the people who ran to the streets to welcome the royal army.

The Jingyuan soldiers cheered and rushed into the palace.

A group of people plundered the palace like crazy, taking all the gold, silver, treasures, silks, satins and various rare things they could see.

When their chests were stuffed full, they set their sights on the palace maids.

The same scene was happening outside the imperial city.

The Fengxiang Army, who were a step slower, robbed money from house to house, and put any women they saw on their shoulders and carried them away.

The Yiwu Army, which arrived last, had adhered to military discipline, but could not hold out until dusk and was also caught up in the tide.

Since they arrived late and could not gain much benefit, they simply set fire to the houses of officials and civilians alike.

Countless houses and shops were burned down, and smoke billowed from the streets.

The sound of wailing was endless.

……

【The government troops entering the city were supposed to protect the people and maintain order. 】

[However, Tang Hongfu and Cheng Zongchu were worried that other armies would take the credit, so they did not tell Zheng Ting about the recapture of Chang'an. They allowed their soldiers to rob shops, steal money, and abduct women.]

【Wang Chucun also ordered the soldiers to tie a white silk scarf on their heads as a mark of identification for friendly forces.】

[Some young people in the streets also stole their names to rob people.]

……

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng, who was chewing a pill, glanced at the empty bottle in his hand.

"Bang! Clank!"

The copper bottle was thrown to the ground, rolled forward, and was stopped by the threshold.

Ying Zheng swallowed the pill he had chewed in his mouth and licked his teeth.

"Humph……"

"The only thing that can make man triumph over Heaven is the law."

Although he thought so, Ying Zheng also knew that the current situation of the Tang Dynasty could not be saved by law.

He understood this group of garrison soldiers.

All they care about is money, as long as they can get enough benefits.

You can let them kill whomever you want!
...It was an indescribable miracle that a song of "Pozhen Music" could make them wake up from Huang Chao's reward.

A little more, no more.

Besides...

After calming down, Ying Zheng regained his intelligence.

Without the variable of Li Shimin, the Tang Dynasty seems to be no match for the rogue Han Dynasty...

Regardless of the state's control over the local areas, there is also military order.

In these key areas, the Han Dynasty was much better than the Tang Dynasty.

Ying Zheng thought with a sour face.

"I am the emperor... I have a broad mind..."

"I..."

……

Big man.

"It's rotten, there's no hope."

Liu Bang leaned against the brocade couch with his hands folded in his lap, bending and stretching his legs.

Next to him, Lu Zhi sat upright, expressionless, but with anger in her eyes.

"Although there is some virtue left, it is not much."

But Liu Bang thought this was normal.

After all, Li Shimin has been dead for more than two hundred years.

Even if they are moved and nostalgic, it cannot outweigh the immediate benefits!

This is Chang'an...

As an imperial capital for more than two hundred years, food may not be abundant, but gold, silk, and beautiful women are plentiful.

As long as you add the title of arresting the remaining bandits, everything in Chang'an City will be free!

"I have a hunch."

Lu Zhi glanced at Liu Bang coldly.

Liu Bang stretched his waist and said slowly:

"Chang'an will suffer another disaster."

Lu Zhi was stunned, and her brain started to shake!
Huang Chao is still in Bashang!

Liu Bang glanced at the astonished Lu Zhi and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Naigong has another discovery. Do you want to hear it?"

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Bang expressionlessly.

Liu Bang scratched his cheek and didn't keep the secret any longer.

"E'ou, do you think the Tang emperor after the An-Shi Rebellion is still an emperor?"

A look of confusion suddenly appeared on Lu Zhi's icy face, and then she lowered her eyes to think.

Liu Bang looked at Lu Zhi with a stern face and whistled.

"If it weren't for the 'Breaking the Array Music' that brought back the dead, I would have forgotten about it."

"That vassal state is no different from a feudal state!"

A feudal state... a state... a vassal state?!

Lu Zhi suddenly looked up at Liu Bang, but the smile on Liu Bang's face was gone.

"E's wife, I'm afraid the second Spring and Autumn Period of Chaos is about to begin."

"I'm afraid this chaotic world is even more chaotic than the so-called Northern and Southern Dynasties."

……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng covered his eyes and leaned in Dou Yifang's arms.

"That's... Chang'an..."

Dou Yifang stroked Liu Heng's back, with her chin resting on his head, and whispered softly to comfort him.

Liu Qiben looked at the sky sadly, and when he turned around to say something, he saw his father and mother hugging each other.

I couldn't help but kneel down and hug myself.

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che's face turned pale.

"Wei Qing."

Wei Qing on the side immediately stepped forward and bowed, waiting for orders.

"You are the great general. I have only one request for you and for all the armies in the world."

Wei Qing bowed his head and listened attentively.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the hall.

An invisible pressure was like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, spreading in all directions with unquestionable majesty.

"The military discipline is strict."

Liu Che looked at Wei Qing in front of him and spoke word by word.

The guards on duty outside the palace gate straightened their backs silently.

"I want all the armies in the world to be like the soldiers under Cheng Buzhi."

"Orders are strictly followed and military discipline is strict."

"Do you understand it."

Wei Qing bowed his head tightly, clasped his hands and said in a deep voice:

"Here!"

Looking at the figure walking out of the palace gate.

Liu Che looked at Huo Qubing and said seriously:
"Go help your uncle."

Huo Qubing nodded.

Just as he was about to stand up, Liu Che suddenly put his hand on Huo Qubing's shoulder.

Huo Qubing looked at Liu Che.

Liu Che looked at the young general and smiled:
"Your uncle is a kind person, so it's inevitable that some people will bother him."

"Please help me more. I will allow you to do things at your own convenience."

There was a serious look in Huo Qubing's eyes.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, leave it to me!"

Then he strode out the door.

Looking at the figure gradually moving away, Liu Che slowly stopped smiling.

Li Shimin's remaining virtue in getting the vassal states to send troops to support the king and their looting of Chang'an made him certain of one thing.

We must be very positive and insist on unifying the world!
It is not enough to just conquer every "country", but also to ensure that no military general is allowed to exercise military power independently.

It was very impressive for Li Shimin to become the "Heavenly Khan".

It can be said that he is the common ruler of the Han and Hu peoples in the world!

But from another perspective, he also acknowledged that the world was vast, and there were areas that were not under the emperor's rule, and that a different relationship model should be adopted. "All under heaven belongs to the king..."

However, the title of 'Tian Ke Khan' constantly reminds the people of the world that the rulers of the land do not necessarily have to be subjects of the king...

The powerful vassal states of the Tang Dynasty proved this point; they were like returning to the feudal states of the Zhou Dynasty.

It has its own military and financial power and competes with the imperial court.

And the next step...

"The princes are fighting for supremacy, and I wonder who will be able to be like Emperor Gaozu..."

"Reorder the world."

……

On the canopy.

Changan.

Broken limbs and corpses were scattered all over the ground.

The imperial palace, government offices, private residences, and shops.

Blood flows into a river.

……

[On the other side, the scouts sent by Huang Chao found out the current situation of Chang'an City and reported back.]

[After confirming the news, Huang Chao decisively issued an order to counterattack Chang'an. ]

[The government troops were holding gold, silver and jewels in their arms and had no intention of fighting. A one-sided massacre began, Tang Hongfu and Cheng Zongchu were killed, and the government troops were completely wiped out.]

[It was not until this time that Wang Chucun informed Zheng Ting of the defeat.]

[The good situation was ruined, Zheng Ting vomited blood and fell ill, Fengxiang Sima Li Changyan took the opportunity to seize power and drove Zheng Ting out of Guanzhong. Not long after, Zheng Ting died of depression. ]

[On the tenth day of April in 881 AD, Huang Chao entered Chang'an and issued his first military order: to clean up the city.]

……

{Troubled times! Too chaotic!}

{At first he was pretending, but now he doesn't even pretend.}
{This is not his own fault. He massacred people when he first entered the city, and then massacred people again when someone wrote anti-China poems. These two times he offended all classes in Chang'an. Why should they look up to Huang Chao?}
{The third massacre was far larger than the previous two, with nearly 80,000 people dying in it!}
{I remember that wherever his team went, they were like locusts passing through a border. They robbed whatever they went to. To put it bluntly, they were just a group of bandits!}

{The initiators of these uprisings may have had good intentions at first, but once they became bigger and stronger, they forgot their original intentions.}
{Be obsessed with fame, wealth and extravagance, and only care about personal gains and losses.}
{Why don’t we talk about Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang being awesome? Rich people have a certain resistance to material things and fame, which determines part of the upper limit, while poor people’s resistance to these things is basically negative. Those who can eliminate this negative buff are all people with great perseverance and ambition.}
……

Great Song.

Zhao Kuangyin sighed, then sneered:
"We're just getting started..."

"For more than fifty years, fathers have killed sons and sons have killed fathers!"

"Relatives disregard ethics, and clan rituals fall apart."

"I unified the world just to reshape the laws of propriety!"

"If a man does not know etiquette, what is he to do with animals?"

……

Song Taizong period
Zhao Kuangyi looked at the sky expressionlessly.

From the Jin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, the emperor had to gain the support of the nobles in order to hold power.

The nobles occupied a central position, controlling the people on one side and restraining the emperor on the other.

But Huang Chao...or the five kingdoms ruled by military men broke these constraints.

This group of military men neither know how to govern a country nor look down on scholars.

"Scholars..."

What a great tool.

As expected, warriors don’t have brains.

……

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his lips and pointed:
"No wonder Huang Chao failed the exam!"

"Compared to Emperor Guangwu, who also came from a scholarly background, there is a world of difference!"

"It's fine if I don't have a territory of my own."

"The targets have also expanded from the royal family, officials, wealthy merchants, scholars, etc. to ordinary people!"

"If the scope of the crackdown continues to expand, won't it completely cut off our public support?"

"Only relying on violent killings to maintain the facade,

He has already failed.”

After saying this, he picked up the green cup and pretended to drink tea, but his eyes kept glancing at Queen Ma.

Queen Ma laughed secretly in her heart, but said calmly:

"Yes, Zhu Chongba is the best! How come you are so awesome?"

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned and said nothing, drinking the tea in his hand!

……

[We don’t understand Huang Chao’s inexplicable obsession with Chang’an, but his decision to return to Chang’an again determined his death.]

[On September 882, AD, Huang Chao's general Zhu Wen killed the eunuch Yan Shi, who was supervising the army, and surrendered the whole state to Wang Chongrong, the governor of Hezhong.]

【Tang Xizong was overjoyed and appointed Zhu Wen as the General of the Left Jinwu Army and the Deputy Envoy of the Hezhong Camp, and gave him the name Zhu Quanzhong.】

[On April 883, AD, Li Keyong led an army of soldiers to defeat Huang Chao. Huang Chao could not resist, so he set fire to the palace and fled from Chang'an.]

[As the king's army, the Tang army once again raped, burned, killed, and plundered in Chang'an. From then on, Chang'an was completely desolate and withdrew from the stage of the times. ]

……

Great Sui.

Yang Jian looked at the scene in the sky and said to Dugu Jialuo seriously:
"I have decided that the system of feudal lords cannot exist."

Dugu Jialuo frowned and said:
"But the collapse of the Fubing system is certain..."

Yang Jian looked solemn. After a moment's silence, he said slowly:
"All of this...will depend on Shimin to figure it out from now on."

Dugu Jialuo's expression froze, and she stared at the serious Yang Jian in a daze.

"Are you serious? It's all thanks to him?!"

Yang Jian quickly grabbed Dugu Jialuo who was about to explode and said in a deep voice:

"No, let's see what the later dynasties will think, and then teach them all to the people of Shimin."

"He will definitely find a new way out!"

Seeing Dugu Jialuo's complexion gradually improving, Yang Jian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I reacted quickly!
……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Li Yuan, who was in a coma, opened his eyes dazedly.

Before I could open my eyes completely, I saw a dark shadow rushing towards me!
"boom!"

Li Jiancheng widened his eyes, looked to the side and said angrily:

"Li Shimin! What do you want to do?!"

Li Shimin slowly retracted his fist, looked at the horrific Chang'an City, and said with anger:
"Brother, do you want father to see this scene?"

The look of shock and anger on Li Jiancheng's face froze for a moment, then slowly calmed down.

The two looked at each other in silence and could only watch the tragedy happen.

……

Datang.

With swollen eyes and crying until he lost his voice, Li Shimin understood for the first time the monarchs of the late Tang Dynasty.

Compared with these vassal states, eunuchs are indeed more reliable.

The so-called military generals are no longer important; these guards are the real threat!
An idea suddenly came to my mind.

"I want to discipline the troops of the world!"

……

Tang Dynasty and Gaozong period
"Order all civil and military officials to the Taiji Hall."

Li Zhi leaned on the pillow beside him.

He said expressionlessly:
"I have something important to announce."

……

Tang Xuanzong Period
Li Longji took off his armor with trembling hands.

Gao Lishi on the side looked at Li Longji worriedly.

"saint……"

"Bang! Bang! Crash..."

Li Longji lowered his head, taking off his armor with great effort, and said hoarsely:

"General Gao, I was wrong."

"The vassal state...cannot be left here!"

……

[In May 884, Huang Chao was attacked by Li Keyong's Shatuo in Zhongmu, killing more than 5 people. Shang Rang led people to surrender to the Tang court.]

【Huang Chao led the remaining troops to flee to the northeast. 】

[There are many different opinions about Huang Chao's ending, but it doesn't matter which one it is. ]

[The Huang Chao Rebellion was quelled, but the Tang Dynasty was also torn apart.]

[The imperial court's orders only apply to a few dozen states in Hexi, Shannan, Jiannan, and Lingnan.]

【The Tang Dynasty is already in name only.】

[In 885 AD, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty returned to Chang'an. Li Keyong, the governor of Hedong, led his troops to attack Chang'an on the pretext of killing Tian Lingzi. Emperor Xizong fled to Fengxiang.]

[In 888 AD, Emperor Xizong of Tang returned to Chang'an again and subsequently died of illness.]

[In April of the same year, Tang Zhaozong Li Ye, the seventh son of Tang Yizong Li Yu, ascended the throne.]

[Li Ye was good at reading and writing, had a heroic spirit, respected court officials, and worked hard to govern. After taking over the mess of the Tang Dynasty, he was eager to restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty, but he was repeatedly frustrated. No matter how hard he tried, he was ultimately unable to turn the situation around.]

[In 904 AD, after a chaotic battle, Xuanwu Jiedushi Zhu Wen became the overlord of the Central Plains and then raised his butcher knife to the emperor.]

[In the same year, Emperor Zhaozong Li Ye's ninth son, Emperor Ai of Tang Li Yu, was made emperor by the powerful minister Zhu Wen.]
