A Yun-nan polity. Attacked by Lu-chuan (q.v.) in the 1440s and was an ally of Mu-bang (q.v.) in the mid-15th century. Tan Qi-xiang (1982; 78) depicts it as being centred on what is today Lu-xi (or Mang-shi) in Yun-nan, PRC. In Shan, it was known as Mong Si (Scott and Hardiman 1900; Part II, Vol. 2, 477). For information on further Chinese sources relating to this polity, see Dao Yong-ming (1989; 247-49, 944), Fang Guo-yu (1987; 851, 871-72, 1067) and Gong Yin (1985; 226-27, 233 and 1992; 645-47, 652).
