十七年，遣辯士王介諭降散毛諸洞蠻，以散毛兩子入覲，因進言曰：「元帥蔡邦光，昔征散毛蠻而死，可念也。」 In the seventeenth year he sent Wang Jie to receive the submission of the Sanmao cave tribes. When Sanmao's two sons came to court, he added: 'Marshal Cai Bangguang died campaigning against the Sanmao tribes—he should be remembered.'

乃擢蔡邦光之子，陞為管軍緫管，佩虎符，賜散毛兩子金銀符各一，并賜其酋長以金虎符。 He promoted Cai Bangguang's son to commander of army administration with a tiger tally, gave each of Sanmao's sons gold and silver tally-tokens, and granted the chieftain a gold tiger tally.
