Wujie Khan's forces and Tang's border defense …

Years: 843 - 843

Wujie Khan's forces and Tang's border defense forces had subsequently come into open combat, even though both sides have continued negotiations.

In 843, the Tang general Liu Mian launchesa surprise attack against Wujie Khan, led by his officer Shi Xiong, who crushes Wujie Khan's forces and rescues Princess Taihe.

Wujie Khan flees, and subsequently, the Uyghur remnants will create only minor nuisances for Tang and no longer pose a major threat.
