Fang La captured at Qingxi
The Song History credits Xin Xingzong with capturing Fang La at Qingxi on gengyin in the fourth month.
What this does and does not establish
Huizong annals, Wikisource raw revision 2315056. The seventh-month presentation of Fang La by Tong Guan and others is a later stage, not a contradictory capture notice.

- Year-level placement is limited to the dated source entry.
The date reference is this project’s reading of the source’s date. It may give an era name, a reign or a calendar in a normalised form rather than in the source’s own words; the dating notes say what the source prints.
Dating notes from the research record
Read song022.wikitext heading line 68, fourth-month paragraph line 76, and subsequent fifth-month, intercalary-month, and seventh-month notices at lines 78–84. Read calendar headers and December rows in sinica-1120-12-31.html and sinica-1121-12-31.html: 1120-12-31 is Xuanhe 2, month 12 day 10; 1121-12-31 is Xuanhe 3, month 11 day 20. The intervening fourth month lies wholly in Julian 1121. Original quotation begins at line 76, character 2380.
File names and line numbers in these notes, and in the limits above, refer to the project’s retained copies of the cited sources. Names such as calendar_headers are the project’s calendar look-ups, and “the investigator” is the research step that prepared the record.
Sources and quoted text
Line and character numbers under “Location” refer to the project’s retained copy of the source. For database rows, “Edition” names the batch of rows that was fetched together.
