  • The Four Garrisons of Anxi were Chinese military garrisons installed by Tang Dynasty between 648 and 658 that stationed at the city and capital of the Indo-European statelet Kucha, Khotan, Kashgar and Karashahr, the capital of Kucha was also the seat of Protectorate General to Pacify the West. The troops were sent and stationed here from within the Tang proper. The fortress of Four Garrisons were first built in 648, when the main opponent statelets in the Tarim Basin were subdued by force. Shortly in 651, the garrisons were broke away under the Turkic prince Ashina Helu until the conquest of Su Dingfang after 657. The main challenger for the Chinese establishing their hegemony over the region was the Tibetans, who since 662 had constantly set their aggression over the region and briefly seized it between 670 and 692, during this period the Chinese re-captured them in 675, 679, 682 and again in 686. Meanwhile in 679, another fortress was built in Suyab, situated at around the Chui River, this would later replaced Karashahr as one of the Four Garrisons until 719 when the Turgesh took over it. In 692, with the last defeat of Tibetans, and a brief seizure of Kucha by Turgesh for 8 months in 709, the Four Garrisons were permanently controlled by the Chinese thereafter. Even though by the 760s and 780s, most of the regular prefectures at Hexi Corridor, such as Liangzhou (764), Ganzhou, Suzhou (766), Guazhou (776), Yizhou (781) and Shazhou (787) were occupied by the Tibetans, and the contacts between the capital was limited. The Chinese continued to maintain the order of these garrisons until 791, when these along with the seat of Protectorate General to Pacify the West would eventually fallen to the Tibetan hands.
  • Die Vier Garnisonen von Anxi waren Garnisonstruppen, die von der Tang-Dynastie zwischen 648 und 658 in verschiedenen Städten und der Hauptstadt der Indo-Europäischen Kleinstaaten Kucha, Khotan, Kashgar und Karashahr stationiert worden waren. Die Hauptstadt von Kucha war darüber hinaus das Hauptquartier des „Generalprotektorats zur Befriedung des Westens“. Die hier stationierten Truppen kamen aus dem Kernland der Tang-Dynastie selbst.
