When autumn came in September, chrysanthemums bloomed while other flowers withered; bursts of fragrance permeated Chang'an and golden chrysanthemums were all over the city!
This was the most famous poem of Huang Chao.
Huang Chao was the chief culprit of the turmoil in the late Tang Empire and the gravedigger of an empire.
It was his feat of breaking through Chang'an that unveiled the prelude of vassal states' obtaining the throne and feudal princes' competing for hegemony.
The vassal states were only arrogant before, but they were still ruled by the imperial court. But after the Huang Chao Uprising, the vassal states no longer obeyed the orders of the imperial court, and they controlled their troops on their own to fight with each other.
Until the prelude of Five Dynasties and Te

Wu Hongshan stood in front of the window with his hands clasped behind his back, staring at the dark night sky, and he didn't move for a long time. He sighed heavily as if he had suddenly aged ten years. Today, the memorial to the throne written by the Lulong Commissioner was published on the imperial court. In the memorial, there was solid evidence to prove that Li Guochang, the Zhenwu Commissioner, was the culprit of Kang Chengxun's murder, and it also enumerated the evidence that the cultivators of the Zhenwu Army sneaked into Hedong to create chaos and cause the military and civilian unrest. Among them, the most important witnesses were the cultivators of the Zhenwu Army who were escorted to Chang'an by the Lulong Army. The memorial caused a great dispute on the imperial court, and the whole court was in an uproar for a time. Especially after the officials on Wang Duo and Lu Yan's side had made a series of declaiming and denounced all ki

Li Ye knew clearly that when he dealt with Wei Jiangnan, he exposed a lot of strength. It was impossible that Liu Xingshen and Han Wenyue weren't alert. When he saw Wang Jian and Li Maozhen, Li Ye knew that they were sent by Liu Xingshen to test him. Their purpose was to draw forth Song Jiao and the others to verify whether he had gathered Li Xian's former followers or not, whether he knew the truth of the Battle of Bagong Mountain or not. Under their control over Chang'an, if the four high-ranking eunuchs were convinced that Li Ye was a threat, they wouldn't hesitate to get rid of Li Ye, even if Li Ye was the Grand Prince. For those sinister eunuchs who didn't see the world's heroes as human beings, rules were not obstacles. Now Li Cui was seriously ill, so this incompetent emperor wouldn't live long according to Li Ye's memories of his last life, which meant that Li Yan was about to ascend the throne. As long as Li Yan had ascended the thr

However, Wang Jian wasn't easy to deal with and he had more strength than other ordinary masters in Level 7 of Qi-refining. In addition, he cultivated the cultivation methods in the army which was very fierce. Therefore, he was stiff for only a second, and then he broke the shackle directly so that he could move again. Wang Jian was delighted. But he wasn't delighted long because Li Ye had already punched at his face! When Wang Jian was bound by the "Will" word, Li Ye had enough time to launch a punch. "Cloud-gathering Punch!" The power of the cultivation methods from "Purple Clouds from the East" increased correspondingly with Li Ye's progress in the realm of cultivation. This punch had condensed all the power of Li Ye's cultivation with no reservation. Although it was simple, direct and not complex, its power couldn't be underestimated! When his fist hit Wang Jian's face, Li Ye clearly saw that Wan

Li Maozhen played for keeps. He used his full strength in this move. With the cultivation of Level 7 in Qi-refining, he was good at moving fast. In a split second, Li Maozhen came to the front of Li Ye. At this moment, Li Ye held the falling Luke Sword and turned his head to glance at Li Maozhen with weird eyes. Li Maozhen tingled with an ominous sensation as soon as he felt Li Ye's eyes. He understood those eyes, in where there was no fear but a hint of a pleasant surprise. Did he feel pleasantly surprised? It was like a cook seeing a fat duck jumping into his pot of boiling water. What was going on? Li Maozhen felt a shock in his heart and almost threw himself into confusion. However, he immediately got the conclusion that Li Ye was bluffing. Yes. That was for sure! Li Maozhen had seen Li Ye's ability to control in a fight. This was a guy of careful thought

Reaching an alley, Li Ye tossed Li Maozhen to the ground. He looked around to make sure that they were alone before he breathed with relief. Wu You opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped by a silencing gesture from Li Ye. Somebody had appeared at the end of the alley. It was Li Yan, Prince Pu of the Imperial Court, with Tian Lingzi following behind. Wu You was shocked to see them here. She peered deeply into Li Ye, her eyes filled with doubt and suspicion. "You will understand later," Li Ye simply said and walked towards Prince Pu and greeted him. Li Yan was here at his behest after receiving a message from his messaging jade note. "What is going on, Brother Ye?" Li Yan asked with a bewildered look on his face. He had refrained from revealing too much when he was speaking to them at the riverside because he noticed that Li Maozhen and Wang Jian were watching them. Li Ye kicked at Li Maozhen. "Get

Li Ye immediately returned to his residence and summoned Song Jiao, Shangguan Qingcheng, Li Zhen, and the others to discuss the plans for the coup. The plot would be sprung in seven days; there was much work to be allocated to his men. The contingent of fighters led by Song Jiao comprised of members such as Liu Dazheng and Mo Dongli, all of whom were skilled in combat techniques with powers at Level 8 of the Qi-refining Stage. They would not be useful against Liu Xingshen and Han Wenyue individually, but they were nevertheless a powerful force if grouped together. The 800-strong personal guards that Shangguan Qingcheng commanded would also be crucial to the plan; the guards were adequately equipped and trained for gritting battles. It was too much of a risk to rely only on the Regal Guards, and hence Li Ye would need an army of his own if he was to seize control of the Imperial Palace to watch the gates and other major passages leading in and out of the p

"It's dark." "It's dark." Different men, uttering the very same lines, conveyed the very same message even though they spoke with contrasting tones and styles. Song Jiao was the first to step out the entrance. Liu Dazheng crouched before a boy. There was a moment of hesitation from him before he quickly broke into a warm smile. "Wait for my return, Liu Xiaohei," he said. "I'm not Liu Xiaohei," snapped the boy crossly, "I'm not Liu Xiaohei!" "But you can't even remember your name when I found you," Liu Dazheng remarked indifferently, "I have to call you something." "Then anything else but Liu Xiaohei! The name is terrible!" Liu Xiaohei complained and said loudly, "What terrible taste!" "Well, your complexion is dark. The name suits you, at least that's what I think. Anyone who hears the name will know it's you. Let's stick with it then. It's easy for you to remember too. Yo

Han Wenyue sensed the fluctuation of Spiritual Qi, so he glanced outside the window. Feeling irritated, he asked, "What's wrong? Where did that fluctuation come from? How can there be practitioners fighting in the Imperial Palace?" To the two Lieutenants of Regal Guards, fighting in the Imperial Palace during the middle of the night was an act of lawlessness. Anyone who dared to do so was asking for death! Han Wenyue frowned before he could even finish his own sentence. He could sense the drastic expansion of the fluctuation since it appeared. Based on his judgment, there were at least a few mid-level Qi-refining masters fighting with their full strength. They shouldn't be too far from here. Liu Xingshen and Han Wenyue both could see the shock in each other's eyes. Just as they came out of the Sleeping Palace, a practitioner flew down and greeted them in a rush. Terrified, he reported to them, "I've discovered a huge group of cultivators and

Seeing the steep appearance of the black rhinoceros elite cavalry of the Returning Righteousness Army, Buddha Zi was already very shocked, and when he realized that a large swathe of cultivators were in black, stepping on the rolling yellow sands and rolling towards Yangguan, his eyes were about to stare out.He knew that Dunhuang's Returning Righteousness Army, could possibly support Yangguan, but those 5,000 light cavalry yesterday afternoon were already the limit of the troops he thought Zhang Huaishen could mobilize.The reason why he was so sure of this was because before initiating the Battle of Yangguan, the Sect of Release had already secretly contacted Sohun and said that they would work together inside and outside.Originally, this matter seemed redundant to Buddha Zi, who didn't think that the tiny Yang Guan, with a mere 10,000 generals, could hold back his army of 50,000 cultivators. In Buddha Zi's view, this is completely flat to give Suo Xun a rich an

The remaining sun was like blood, but it spread a layer of golden radiance to the inside and outside of the Yangguan.Off the wall below has been a bloody piece, almost can not see the rammed earth and yellow sand, not to mention the flow of blood in the body, only hanging in the female wall of broken limbs, broken everywhere in the bowels of the intestines, doubly so shocking. With this layer of gold rendering, even showed a few points of holy meaning.It was a pity that the sun set in the twinkling of an eye, and when countless fires appeared inside and outside of the Pass Wall, the bursting aura light clusters, flashing sword aura blade lights, overflowing colorful auras, and countless warriors running and fighting in either bright or dark light, with shadows and shapes like ghosts, set off the dilapidated and majestic Pass City as a ghost city.Li Ye knew the battle wouldn't last much longer.The monk regiment has been killed and wounded more than half, t

The reason why he told Suo Zhang's this, Suo Xun's purpose was clear to gain his wife's understanding and support. After all, Suo Zhang was Zhang Yichao's daughter, and her prestige among the Zhang family members was not low.This is something that Sohun has been doing all along and has basically been confirmed, if not, he wouldn't be telling his wife this right now, but would have imprisoned her instead. To emphasize it again right now as the big event is being unleashed will help to strengthen his wife's morale.Putting on his armor, Sohun came to the council chamber.The dignified subordinates and staff in the residence had already waited for many things, and his close generals in the army, including some of the Guazhou-based Returned Army Provisioners Great Cultivators of the Real Life Realm had also been notified to rush over.Launching a mutiny and mastering the Returning Righteous Army was a major event that Suo Xun had been planning and preparing for

Seeing that the Buddha son had gone berserk, the monks began to attack Yangguan regardless of the casualties, countless cultivators of the high qi practicing stage swooped down to the place where the turquoise blue star feathers were emanating from, and Zhang Huaishen went to work with arranging for the good fighters in the Returning Righteousness Army to start a battle-within-a-battle with the opposing side around the magic weapon bed and crossbow formations after he had reported a word to Li Ye."The magic weapon bed crossbow is indeed an unrivaled weapon in the sand, if the number can be doubled, the range will be able to cross-cover all the open space in front of the pass, and as far as defending the city is concerned, the Tang army can be invincible. This kind of artifact, is really unbelievable!" Chu Nanhuai was overwhelmed with emotion.This statement of his kept the crowd nodding.Li Ye, however, did not comment.No matter what kind of world, the impr

Seeing Zhang Huaishen and the great cultivators behind him, the Ming King immediately changed his face and screamed out in a dark voice, all of a sudden his fighting spirit was completely gone and he drew himself up and was about to fly away, while at the same time shouting sharply to the other Vajra Realm great cultivators, "Stop him!"Li Ye would not let him have his way, activating his Step by Step Sword Style to cut down the several Vajra Realm members in his way, and unfolding his stance to hurriedly chase after the Ming King.Some of the surrounding Vajra Realms were confronted head-on by Zhang Huai Shen and the others, and had no choice but to catch and fight with them, while the other part hurriedly chased after Li Ye from the two flanks in order to cope with the Ming King.Seeing that there were still two Vajra Realm high ranks in front of him blocking the way, and that the Ming King was fleeing so fast that he was about to arrive behind the Monk Corps For

Li Ye's aura had been consumed so much that he was left with 30% to 40% of it, and if the Sect of Release was ruthless, he would only have enough to sustain a battle.But the truth was, he couldn't spell out all of his aura, or else there wouldn't even be any room for him to get away.The situation was already very difficult at this point, and Li Ye was still about to face the situation of being at the end of his rope no matter how much he saved.Thinking about it, the next battle could only focus on relying on the power of the magic weapon bed crossbow.With this in mind, he called Peng Zushan over and asked him if he could further refine the use of the magic weapon bed crossbow to make it more useful.Peng Zushan said bitterly, "Your Highness, not to mention boosting the power of the magecraft bed crossbows, it's good that they can still be used in the next battle. In this battle just now, two of the ten mana bed crossbows broke, one was destroyed by

Quantitatively speaking, the deaths and injuries of thousands of monk soldiers did not have an essential impact on the monk corps, at least the white sea of them running towards the Yang Pass wall once again was still so turbulent and surging that they could not be seen at a glance.Between battles, Peng Zushan ran up to Li Ye, red-faced and stammering, and asked if King An could repel a few more attacks from the thief vultures if he had the chance, so that they could do a few more siege impacts, and the magical weapon bed crossbows on the barrier wall, and the various magical weapon bows that they had modified, would be able to play a greater role.Because the magic weapon bed crossbow had just been equipped, their previous estimation of the power and range of the bow was inadequate, the placement was flawed, and there were shortcomings in the crossbow's cross-coverage, leaving room for improvement in the lethality inflicted on large-scale siege armies.Now after

As soon as the sword style was activated, Li Ye's figure disappeared into thin air, and the thirty-odd Vajra Realm members simultaneously felt a chill go straight to their heads, as if they were falling into an abyss. That was the sign of extreme danger descending, and they couldn't help but all change their colors drastically.The leader of the monks just roared "disperse", just to see in front of the companions of several people neck blood spray, round head spinning flying into mid-air, no matter how hard the following words, can not say a word.Suddenly he found his vision spinning in the sky, as towering towers, crumbling walls, tidal waves of monks, blue skies, and even a white-gold sun slipped past his eyes one after another. Finally his sight returned to his companions, and he saw that they were looking at him in the same way that he had looked at the monks whose heads were suddenly flying across the room.Steeply, he noticed that a headless body that was be
Vanquish Them All Chapter 715 The War
The siege began suddenly, 50,000 monks and soldiers holding Zen staffs, dharma swords, shields and other blades and weapons, the rising tide of the sea like a violent sweep towards the pass; the siege began logically, because they had gathered outside the pass for a long enough time, and the generals and soldiers of the army of the Returning Righteousness at the head of the pass had long since finished preparing for the battle.Long days of winter sunshine, the four fields of sunshine, rolling smoke and dust at the feet of the monks and soldiers who could not see the edge of the sea, wave after wave tumbling up, this is the yellow sea of mud and sand, without half an exaggeration.The gateway trembled, a fine dust swirled up half an inch from the rammed earth walls, and a wisp of fine sand poured down.In the trembling is not only the Yangguan, the land outside the same, neat footsteps over the sound of war drums, as if a burst of thunder, Wood a face will be throu
