A Study on the Settlement of Türk Surrender Tribes in the Fourth Year of Emperor Taizong’s Zhenguan Reign—Taking the Northern Part of Hedong Dao as an Example
In the fourth year of the Zhenguan reign, the Eastern Türk Khaganate was
conquered and a large number of Türk tribes surrendered. Emperor Taizong of
Tang adopted the strategy of “Preserving their tribes, following their local
customs” and established Jimi Prefecture in the northern agricultural and
pastoral transitional zone to settle them, and a large part of them were
settled in the northern part of Hedong Dao. These settlements in the Fan tribes
of the border became a force for the Tang Dynasty to stabilize the border. This
article will study the settlement policy for Türk tribes surrendered during the
reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, and explore its profound significance for the
settlement of the entire Tang Dynasty’s Fan tribes.
