苍梧郡 / Cangwu Commandery (late Han)

Cangwu Commandery appears in Hanji 919 as one origin point of the bandits who join Guiyang bandits in attacking commanderies and counties. The episode does not develop Cangwu as a full administrative profile; it matters as part of the southern disorder surrounding Lingling and Yang Xuan’s response.

Key Claims

• Cangwu is a source marker for cross-commandery disorder rather than an isolated local incident.
• Its bandits’ alliance with Guiyang bandits shows how late-Han security failures spill across administrative boundaries.
