History
During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, the city was a secondary capital, for which it was also known as Dongdu (東都; 'eastern capital') because it was directly east of the main capital of Chang'an. In 756, the general Feng Changqing commanded Tang forces in defence of the city against An Lushan, a Turkic jiedushi who had risen in revolt. After losing battle after battle, Feng retreated west to the strategic location of Tong Pass, abandoning Luoyang to An Lushan's army.
