>>17771495>Only won because the Karluk Turks (2/3 of the Tang army) rebelled. Arabs would have lost otherwise just like they did at Aksu earlier.>Zero territorial or geopolitical changes as a result. The Tang Dynasty continued to rule and expand in Central Asia until the An Lushan rebellion forced them to withdraw their troops from the western regions. Arabs had zero gains from the battle.>Abbasids still sent embassies begging for peace after the battle.Wow, Ahmed, very impressive victory.
Also, the Tang Dynasty btfo'd the Umayyad Caliphate at the Battle of Aksu and unlike Talas, this battle was not won through treachery and also resulted in actual territorial changes. The Arabs were expelled from Northern Transoxiana. The Tang conquered the Turgesh, and the Tang and Turgesh forces will eventually expel the Arabs from Ferghana.
The Tang had hegemony over Central Asia and utterly mogged the pathetic Arabs. Despite its status in pop history, the Battle of Talas had no significance and the Arabs only had the opportunity to expand further in Central Asia when the An Lushan Rebellion crippled the Tang Dynasty.

The truth is, sandniggers have only ever won big victories against empires that were already collapsing such as the Byzantines and Sassanids. Otherwise, they are only able to conquer some small states and against larger empires, they either get btfo'd or can only win some small, meaningless victories. Somehow, they delude themselves into thinking this makes them good at war.
