wikipedia - 13 Jan 2022The Siege of Suiyang (traditional Chinese: 睢陽之戰; simplified Chinese: 睢阳之战; pinyin: Suīyáng zhī zhàn) during the An Lushan Rebellion was a campaign for the city of Suiyang by the rebel Yan army against the loyalist forces of the Tang army. Although the battle was ultimately won by Yan, it suffered a major loss of manpower and time. The battle was noted for the Tang army's determination to fight to the last man, and also due to the large-scale cannibalism that occurred during the siege.
