Tang conquest of Gaochang and the Anxi Protectorate

node

The Tang take the kingdom of Gaochang at Turfan and establish the Anxi Protectorate, bringing the northern Tarim route under direct imperial administration. This begins the period of densest documented traffic on the overland corridors.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
