The Tang Dynasty s henchman An Lushan died violently, why did the Tang Dynasty s 600,000 army still

We all know that the protagonists are An Lushan and Shi Siming, of course, An Lushan is the most powerful person among the two, but after An Lushan's violent death, the 600,000 army of Datang was still about to collapse, and today, let's analyze the reasons.

Everybody knows that, AnnThe turning point of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline during the Rebellion of History, the Anshi Rebellion lasted for eight years, and it took eight years for a strong dynasty to fight a vassal prince, which shows how unbearable the combat effectiveness of the Tang Dynasty army was at that time。It was precisely the eight-year campaign that made the soldiers physically and mentally exhausted, and when the news of An Lushan's violent death came, the whole army was naturally excited, and then slowly looked down on the rebels without An Lushan.

There is also an eight-year fight against An LushanThe court is a little tired, and has been nervous, just afraid that one day it will be attacked by the rebels to the capital, and suddenly hear that An Lushan died violently, the court must also be relaxed, and the wedding banquet is singing and dancingAfter the court slacked off, the general was also slack and proud, plus the court cut the grain and grass by half at that time, and he was very proud to laugh at the army fighting the rebels.

You think about it, from top to bottom, you start to prepare for victoryWho is still in the mood to fight desperately, the soldiers are thinking about going home to receive the reward, the combat effectiveness can be imagined, compared to them the rebels? Their leaders are dead, they are rebels, the court caught the nine clans, can't surrender, you think about it left and right are dead, their combat effectiveness can be imagined, on the one hand is a death squad, on the other hand is a dreamer who wants to go home to receive a reward, how can he not be defeated.

It can be seen from this that taxisHow important the spirit and military spirit are in the battle, it can only be said that the defeat of the Tang army is inevitable and not accidental.

The 600,000 army was not as good as the army led by An Lushan at that time, although it was large in number, it was actually defeated with one blow.

Because this 600,000-strong army just looks at the number of people, but in fact, the strength is not good.

Because the Tang Su sect sent ten feudal towns to eliminate the rebels, they ended up balancing each other and became a mess.

Because the Tang Dynasty at that time was already suffering from internal and external troubles, and although there were many troops, their strength was not good.

When the Anshi Rebellion broke out in the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan's army was quite strong. An Lushan was a general in the Tang Dynasty army, and his status rose through the ranks due to his military prowess and loyalty to the emperor.

He was appointed governor of several provinces in the northeastern region, where he built a large and well-equipped army. In addition, An Lushan was supported by many other powerful figures in the Tang court, including other military leaders, **, and members of the imperial family.

Thus, An Lushan's army was able to successfully launch a rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, capturing several important cities and defeating several Tang armies. However, An Lushan's rebellion ultimately failed to revive the Tang Dynasty as his empire collapsed shortly after his death.

It is really very powerful, his army has 1 million, and half of them are elite soldiers, which are carefully selected, and they have never lost a battle, and they can hit the Tang Dynasty hard.

An Lushan's army is very strong, he has 190,000 troops, although the number of troops is not as large as the Tang Dynasty, but the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have been accustomed to singing and dancing, and their strength is long gone.

It is very powerful, because there are more than 1 million soldiers. And these soldiers are all strictly trained, so they are very strong.

Isn't seven years too short? The Anti-Japanese War also took only eight years, and a turmoil lasted for seven years, which made the world miserable, and the Tang Dynasty began to decline. Moreover, the Anshi Rebellion was not really suppressed, but the two sides took a step back and reached a consensus.

I think the main reason is that the strength of the Tang Dynasty in all aspects was very strong at that time, and even the strength was also very strong, and they were caught off guard at that time, which led to the occurrence of this rebellion, and the impact of this strange chaos on the Tang Dynasty was also very serious.

No matter how bad the Tang Dynasty is, it is still rich, An Lushan can see if he wants to be the emperor, and the surrounding feudal towns will definitely live up, plus the help of minority regimes, the role of generals such as Guo Ziyi.

It's because there are many people who hate An Lushan, so they don't really follow An Lushan, and they rebel in the middle of the year. chose to follow the Tang Dynasty.

Because An Lushan is powerful and powerful, and has been planning for a long time, he has been secretly planning for many years, so he can sweep the Tang Dynasty.

Because An Lushan's ambition was very inflated, he got the title and real power of the Lu hand judge of the envoy of Tu Xuan and Lu Jiedu in front of Tang Xuanzong, and also had one-third of the soldiers and horses in the world that had been reformed earlier, and had a certain strength to resist.

Because during the Tang Dynasty, the main task of the army was to fight abroad, so the local armies were large in number and well-equipped.

Because the Tang Dynasty implemented the Fangzhen system, the power of the magistrates would be great, and the troops would be self-respecting, resulting in more local armies than ** armies.

Because of the division of feudal towns in the late Tang Dynasty, and the feudal towns were important military towns, holding military power, An Lushan also had many feudal towns, and combined with Shi Siming, there were many natural generals.

Because An Lushan knew that Datang was a strong outsider. Before he raised his troops, Datang's three major wars with foreign countries all ended in failure, and Datang's morale was approaching.

Because An Lushan felt that only if he raised troops at this time, he could succeed and give himself a good future.

Because as the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he has one-third of the troops of the entire Tang Dynasty in his hands, and he also sees that the civil and military officials of the imperial court are not harmonious, so he dares to rebel.

Although it was a prosperous age, An Lushan was also very powerful, and he didn't have a lot of time, so he dared to raise troops.

Militarily, Tang Xuanzong relied on a warlord like An Lushan. For example, Gao Xianzhi and Wang Zhonghe, these loyal people were killed by Tang Xuanzong, and no one could balance An Lushan, so he dared to rebel.

The Tang Dynasty was in its heyday, why did An Lushan dare to rebel when the Tang Dynasty was at its strongest?

Because during the An Lushan rebellion, many forces were gathered, and these forces were scattered in different places, and it was difficult to deal with them together, so it could only take a lot of time to defeat them one by one.

Because An Lushan's subordinates were very large at that time, and they were all entrenched in different places, it was difficult for the Tang Dynasty to encircle and suppress them, and it took a lot of time.

Because the rebels still existed, and after An Lushan's death, his son and Shi Siming's father and son were still leading, so it took a few more years.

The Anshi Rebellion was a military coup jointly launched by An Lushan and Shi Siming in the last years of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, although the coup ended in suppression, it still had a very far-reaching impact on the historical trend of the Tang Dynasty after that, this coup not only brought social chaos and other phenomena, but also caused the situation of feudal towns and unstable frontiers, which became the turning point of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline. After this incident, the Tang Dynasty went into decline step by step from these aspects.

The secession of feudal towns was the biggest political issue left over from the Anshi Rebellion. Jiedu envoy is to prevent the surrounding ethnic minorities and set up the border defense**, Tang Xuanzong Kaiyuan, Tianbao descended, the number of Jiedu to further increase, An Lushan alone is also Pinglu, Fanyang, Hedong three Jiedu envoy, become one of the reasons for the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion. After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, in order to quell the war and reward the generals, they had to generally set up the post of Jiedu envoy, and allowed them to serve as officials, collect their own taxes, and enjoy the hereditary right of land, which led to the situation of separating the feudal towns, and the power naturally declined further.

After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, in order to quell the war as soon as possible, the Tang royal family called more troops from the north and northwest to block the rebels, and these armies inevitably suffered losses in the process of war, resulting in the weakness of border air defense, and Tubo took the opportunity to rise and occupy Longyou, Hexi Corridor and other places, so the territory of the Tang Dynasty was greatly reduced.

The seven-year and two-month war of the social and economic crisis seriously affected the social and economic development of the Central Plains, Hebei and Hedong regions, the people were displaced, and social production was seriously damaged.

In addition to the above-mentioned manifestations of decline directly related to the Anshi Rebellion, in the late Tang Dynasty, the eunuch dictatorship and the rivalry between friends were also manifestations of the decline of the Tang Dynasty. Since Tang Xianzong, eight of the nine emperors of the Tang Dynasty were established by eunuchs, and Xianzong and Jingzong died at the hands of eunuchs. In addition, in the late Tang Dynasty, the Niu Li Party fought for the five dynasties of Muzong, Jingzong, Wenzong, Wuzong, and Xuanzong, and the two sides attacked each other, which also caused chaos in the political situation in the late Tang Dynasty.

It took 8 years, 3 generations of emperors, and countless manpower and financial resources, and finally only obtained a formal counterinsurgency, so that the final consequence was that the Tang Dynasty had been gradually weakened and finally collapsed in the struggle between ** and the feudal town for nearly 150 years, and the mess has always made it difficult for the country to unify, and even lost the sixteen states of Youyun.

After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, in order to quell the war and reward the generals, they had to generally set up the position of Jiedu envoys, allowing them to serve as officials, collect taxes, and enjoy the hereditary right to land, which led to the situation of separating the feudal towns, and the power naturally declined further.

Taking advantage of the confusion in people's hearts and some disputes in the court, the Tang Dynasty was panicked, so people in a family must be united.
