Li Maozhen sues for peace with Zhu in spring 903, surrendering Emperor Zhaozong and the imperial household to him while killing Han and the other leading eunuchs, as well as Li Jiyun, Li Jihui, and Li Yanbi.

Zhu takes the emperor back to Chang'an, where Zhu and Cui immediately slaughter the remaining eunuchs, regardless of whether they supported Han's actions.

This is the effective end of the Shence Armies.

The Aral Sea is known to the Arabs as the Khwarazan Sea as early as 903.

The Russian city of Pskov, situated on the Velikaya River in northwest European Russia, is first mentioned in historical chronicles of the year 903.

Poppo, who had been restored to his lands in 899, is made Count of the Bavarian Nordgau in 903.

Duke Poppo had been deposed from his offices in 892 and replaced in Thuringia and the Sorbian March by Conrad, who only holds the dukedom briefly, perhaps because he has a lack of local support.

He is replaced by Burchard, whose title in 903 is marchio Thuringionum, "margrave of the Thuringians".

A second campaign results in a caliphal grant of the province to Tahir, although both Fars and Kerman effectively fall into the hands of Sebük-eri.

A new expedition against San’a in the next year leads to a fresh defeat, and al-Hadi's son is captured by the Yu'firid general.

A band of Arabs had in the ninth and early tenth centuries established themselves on the banks of the Garigliano, whence they launch frequent raids on Campania and central Italy.

Atenulf of Capua allies with Amalfi and Gregory IV of Naples and attacks and defeats the Saracens of the Garigliano in 903.

The sudden disappearance in Gaeta of the co-hypati Constantine and Marinus I after 866 strongly suggests that perhaps Docibilis' assumption of power had been violent.

He is first cited as a prefecturius and then as hypatus from 877, when he followed his predecessor's example and associated his son John with him.

In his first years in office, he was faced with the Saracen menace and he fell into their hands.

After being liberated by Amalfi, he made peace with the Saracens and had been excommunicated by Pope John VIII.

In 876, the pope was down in the Mezzogiorno recruiting the princes of Capua and Salerno for the war with the Moslems.

Docibilis had met the pope at Traetto, but could not come to terms.

The pope had then interfered in the Capuan succession on the death (879) of Landulf II to impose Pandenulf over Lando in return for Pandenulf attacking Docibilis.

Formia had been captured and Docibilis had called up some Saracen mercenaries from Agropoli.

He met the pope at Gaeta itself and made peace.

Together they had besieged the Saracen fortress on the Garigliano.

After the pope's death, Docibilis had turned around and attacked Capua, according to Erchempert, with Saracen mercenaries in 900 and 903.

He now begins to turn and form alliances with the Lombard rulers, marrying his daughter Megalu to Rodgipert of Aquino and Euphemia to the prefect of Naples.
