Weibo (Tang dynasty)


Weibo, also known as Tianxiong, was a province or circuit of the mid to late Tang dynasty.
The area was governed from the capital of Weizhou in modern Daming County, Handan, Hebei, and controlled the southern Hebei and northern Shandong regions.
In the post–An Lushan period, Tang Suzong combined Weizhou and Bozhou under the command of the Weibo Army, and Tian Chengsi became the first jiedushi or military governor of Weibo. The Weibo region, ruled autonomously by the Tian family, subsequently became one of the revolting garrisons of Hebei.
Weibo features prominently in the film The Assassin.
