After Tang Zhangwei sent an envoy to ask Fei Xuechun's subordinates to change the excavation of the tomb of the Tang Emperor to the excavation of the tombs of Shi Siming and An Lushan, those tomb robbers were not surprised, and they said: "Whose tomb is not dug up!" As long as we can get the money, looking at the unusually numb appearance of these people, Tang Zhangwei felt sad and angry.

There is such a Tufuzi in Datang, which is indeed the sorrow of the people of Datang.

There are countless people in the entire Datang who are working hard to make money through their own urban labor, but there are also some people who just don't work hard, and they are willing to be spurned.

These people are clowns, so many clowns, they have almost rewritten the history of the Tang Dynasty.

Although the history of the Tang Dynasty records that An Lushan and Shi Siming's father and son killed each other, Tang Zhangwei thinks that their records may not be the truth.

Tang Zhangwei believes that An Lushan and Shi Siming both died of sudden illness, and he believes that both the Old Tang Book and the New Tang Book have scandalized these two people.

Shi Siming immediately led his troops to capture Wu Chengen, and searched for Li Guangbi's letters and a list of rebel generals who should be killed. Shi Siming and the other thieves were furious and shouted: "We have all surrendered, why are you still doing this to us!" Wu Chengen was a coward, and he knelt down and said that Li Guangbi had instructed him to do it. Shi Siming was furious, killed Wu Chengen, his son and more than 200 subordinates, and rebelled again. Shi Siming's staff officer Geng Renzhi advised him not to repeat it, but he personally smashed the head of this staff officer who had been with him for more than 30 years with a stick.

In the first month of the second year of the Qianyuan Dynasty (759 AD), Shi Siming pretended to be the king of the Great Sage Zhou.

Suzong ordered nine Jiedu envoys, including Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, to crusade against An Qingxu. Su Zong originally wanted to send Guo Ziyi as the commander, but considering that Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi had the same merits and were not easy to arrange, he did not set up the post of marshal, but set up another name to watch the army and make an envoy, and actually let a eunuch named Yu Chaoen fill the position. At that time, Guo Ziyi was in no hurry to attack because he had just suffered a defeat. Shi Siming then took the opportunity to collect the remnants of the army and stationed them in Yenan. An Qingxu sent a large number of people to search the camp left behind after the collapse of the official army and obtained a large amount of food. With food, An Qingxu began not to buy Shi Siming's account again. Shi Siming sent people to condemn him, An Qingxu became scared again, and even called Shi Siming a subordinate. Shi Siming replied that he was willing to omit the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, change his name to brother, and warmly invited An Qingxu to come to the blood alliance. When An Qingxu recklessly took his four younger brothers and his subordinates Sun Xiaozhe, Cui Qianyou, Gao Shang and others to go, Shi Siming changed his attitude and gave the An brothers to death, and beheaded Sun Xiaozhe, Cui Qianyou, Gao Shang and others.

After that, Shi Siming led the troops into Yecheng, collected the remnants of the An family, left his son Shi Chaoyi to garrison, and returned to Fanyang, in May, he changed the country name Dayan, proclaimed himself Emperor Yingtian, the year name Shuntian, set his wife Xin as the queen, and named his son Shi Chaoyi as King Huai, Zhou Zhi as the prime minister, Li Guiren as the general, and renamed Fan Yang as Yanjing.

In the spring of the second year of Shangyuan (761), Shi Siming was murdered by Shi Chaoyi and his generals.

Shi Siming's subordinates will be the most brutal team in the Anshi rebels, every time they capture the county, they kill all the old and weak men, use the strong men as the porters, and rape the women all over the place, which is extremely fierce. In the battle of Weizhou, Shi Siming's army killed more than 30,000 people in one day, and bled on the ground for several days. After becoming emperor, he sent spies to threaten his sergeants to return to the Tang army to fight a decisive battle. The great eunuch Yu Chaoen wanted to make a great contribution and strongly persuaded Tang Suzong to order all armies to attack. As a last resort, Li Guangbi and others went to war, the Tang army was defeated, and military important places such as Heyang and Huaizhou were all attributed to Shi Siming.

Shi Siming took advantage of the victory to attack Shaanzhou, but was blocked by the Tang army in the area of Jiang Ziban. The battle was unfavorable and retreated to Yongning. Shi Siming ordered the construction of the Triangle City, which took about a month to build, in order to store military rations. His son Shi Chaoyi led the soldiers to work hard, and after the city was built, it did not reach the mud to plaster the outer wall. Shi Siming inspected here, was furious, and summoned Shi Chaoyi, Luo Yue and other generals to the front, wanting to kill them to establish military prestige. Shi Chaoyi trembled, knowing that the murderous Shi Siming had no father-son relationship at all, and begged: "The soldiers are too tired, take a break and get into the mud immediately." Shi Siming scolded: "You cherish your subordinates, do you dare to disobey my orders!" "Immediately under the city, watch the soldiers go up to the mud," he said. Before leaving, Shi Siming yelled at Shi Chaoyi: "Wait for me to conquer Shaanzhou and kill this thief!" ”

Shi Chaoyi was terrified. Luo Yue and others were also afraid of punishment because of the defeat, and strongly persuaded Shi Chaoyi to strike first. Shi Chaoyi did not dare to agree, so Luo Yue and others threatened to surrender to the Tang army. Shi Chaoyi thought twice and nodded his head.

That night, Shi Siming was camping, and his confidant General Cao led people to guard. Shi Chaoyi and others summoned him to explain the purpose of his actions, but General Cao "did not dare to refuse". In the middle of the night, Shi Siming woke up from a dream and was melancholy in bed. He usually likes to listen to excellent people singing, and there are several scenes when he eats and sleeps. Because he was cruel and often killed, these actors hated him very much in their hearts. Seeing that he was startled, several people hurriedly asked the reason, and he said: "I just dreamed that a herd of deer wading in the sandbar in the river was wading in the water, and the deer were dead and dry. With that, he got up and went to the toilet. A few actors secretly said: "The deer, Lu Ye; Those who are water, too. It's the end of this life! ”

While talking, Luo Yue and others broke in with knives, hacked several people to death without saying anything, and forced Shi Siming to ask where he was, and the rest of them hurriedly pointed to the direction of the toilet. Shi Siming heard the sound in the tent, climbed over the wall, and just ran to the manger on horseback, the chasing soldier shot him in the arm and rolled off the horse. Shi Siming held back the pain and asked, "Who rebelled?" Someone replied that it was King Huai (Shi Chaoyi) who started the incident. Shi Siming was cunning and begged: "I said the wrong thing in the morning, so I have such a thing now." Don't kill me so quickly, it's not too late to kill me when I capture Chang'an. As soon as he lost his past ferocity, Shi Siming begged for his life. Turning his head to see General Cao, a cronie with his head drooping, Shi Siming scolded again: "This is a fool of me!" This fools me! Luo Yue waved his hand, and the soldiers tied Shi Siming up and imprisoned him in Liuquanyi.

Shi Chaoyi's heart was shocked, and when he saw Luo Yue and the others recovering their lives, he asked repeatedly: "Didn't you alarm the saint?" Didn't hurt the saints, did they? The generals replied, "No." The group forged Shi Siming's edict, Shi Chaoyi succeeded to the throne, and killed Shi Siming's confidant general Zhou Zhi and others who commanded the army abroad. In order to prevent future troubles, Luo Yue and others took the lead and strangled the old boss Shi Siming, who was about to die at every turn, with a rope.

。

Although An Lushan and Shi Siming, the two traitors, only tossed for seven years, they made the Central Plains turbulent, and tens of millions of lives died in the military rebellion

Shi Siming's ascension to the rebel leader proved to be a prominent general, and if it had not been for the murder of his son Shi Chaoyi in the spring of 761 through conspiracy, he would likely have overthrown the Tang dynasty.
