Wang(2) Chao(2) [3937] In 880, Wang(2) Xu (not in dataset) and his bandit band captured Huangzhou and pressed the powerful and distinguished residents into his army. Gushi county resident Wang(2) Chao was made a commander and w/Xu lead the army to Quanzhou, Nanan county. Xu was assasinated after learning of his plans to kill many of the prominent people, who then made Chao their ruler. Chao returned to Tang authority and revived scholarship and encouraged agriculture in Min. In ca. 892, Chao was made military governor of Fujian. (This all from Renming Da cidian--check sources later).
