The epitaph of Cui Huaizhen in the Tang Dynasty is now collected in Wuwei Museum,Gansu province,which records the life and official career of Cui Huaizhen,a military officer at the grass-roots level.Cui Huaizhen worked under Xiao Song,the Hexi military commissioner in Kaiyuan regin of the Tang Dynasty.The sentence"The situation is grim and the territory is in danger"in the epitaph refers to the series of wars between the Tang and the Tibetan regime in Guazhou and Qinghai from the fifteenth year of Kaiyuan reign(727)to the seventeenth year of Kaiyuan reign(729),which provides new materials for the study of the history on the relationship between the Tang and the Tibetan regime.At the same time,the article corrects the mistakes in the records of Shenniao County in Tongdian(《通典》)and Taiping Huanyu Ji(《太平寰宇记》)as well as combs the history of three Shenniao Counties in Liangzhou history.In addition,"Wu’an City"mentioned in the inscription in Liangzhou of the Tang Dynasty should have two geographical locations.Firstly,Wu’an City(now it is the ruins of the Pogu Castle in Minqin County),located on one hundred and sixty miles northwest of Liangzhou City.Secondly,the Wu’an Military Mansion mentioned in the inscription,located on the west side of the Liangzhou City.Based on the epitaph of Cui Huaizhen in the Tang Dynasty and the epitaph of Zhai Sheji unearthed in Wuwei City,Gansu Province in 1997,we can determine that the Zhigong Township of Guzang County in the Tang Dynasty was located on the south gate of Wuwei City to the southeast of the Gaoba Town area.
