Following the downfall of the khaganate, Suyab was absorbed into the [[Tang dynasty]], of which it was a western military outpost between 648 and 719. A Chinese fortress was built there in 679, and [[Buddhism]] flourished. According to some accounts, the great poet [[Li Bai]] (Li Po) was born in Suyab.<ref>Zhongguo fu li hui, Chung-kuo fu li hui.

Suyab was one of the Four Garrisons of [[Anxi Protectorate]] until 719, when it was handed over to [[Sulu khan|Sulu Khagan]] of the [[Turgesh]], appointed by the Tang court as the "Loyal and Obedient Qaghan".<ref name=Suyab/><ref>Zongzheng, Xue (1992), p. 596-597, 669</ref> After Sulu's murder in 738, the town was promptly retaken by Tang Chinese forces, along with [[Taraz|Talas]].<ref>Zongzheng, Xue (1992), p. 686</ref> The fort was strategically important during the wars between the Tang dynasty and the [[Tibetan Empire]]. In 766, the city fell to a [[Karluks|Qarluq]] ruler, allied with the nascent [[Uyghur Khaganate]].
