The other thing I can tell you about the An Lushan Rebellion is that it is host to the most terrible siege I know. In the battle of Suiyang, the city of Suiyang was defended by merely 10,000 against 150,000 besiegers and managed to hold out for 10 months. The defenders realized the importance of their city, that if Suiyang falls then all of southern China would follow, that they held out even when all food ran out. Then they started eating their servants, wives, children, and the elderly. By the time the city fell 30,000 civilians had been eaten and only 400 civilians were left. The amazing thing was that even the civilians accepted that they're going to die anyway and no one tried to mutiny. Ick.
