WHI-Chap15-An Lushan
From SJS Wiki
An Lushan was one of the top military leaders of the Tang Dynasty. An Lushan led a revolt against the Tang Dynasty in 755 capturing both the capital Chang'an and the secondary capital Luoyang. He was killed in 757 by an assassin, but the rebellion still continued on until 763 when the Tang armies recovered the capitals. Although An Lushan's rebellion ultimately failed, it severely weakened the Tang dynasty and would be one of the major factors for the downfall of Tang China.
