And such an outcome only has one.
Huang Chao decisively defeated Zhang Lin, beheaded Zhang Lin, and annihilated Gao Bian's elite forces.
The morale of the Tang Army completely collapsed, and the portal to Jiangbei opened wide.
Within a few short months, Huang Chao ravaged Si Province, killing countless people without the slightest hesitation.
Then he led his troops northward along the Huai River.
The entire country, hearing of Huang Chao's name, fled at the sight of him.
The rebel forces advanced as though no one was there to resist, marching straight towards Luoyang!
Like a replay of history, Li Xuan was finally forced to confront a decision akin to that once faced by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang—

No, his current situation was more difficult than that of Li Longji.
At least Li Longji still had the semblance of imperial authority, but it was completely different for him now.
