[1] | Proclaimed king of Goguryeo in 670 and was recognized by an edict of the king of Silla issued on 21 Aug 670. After a series of military defeats inflicted by the armies of Tang, he fled to Silla where he was enfeoffed as Bodeok wang (報德王|보덕왕) [674]. Anseung and his followers were settled on former Baekje territory, where the fiction of an independent Goguryeo (sort of a government-in-exile) seems to have been maintained until 683. |
