The two maps serve different purposes: the first map shows all the cities, while Yimanrongdi's map shows the physical terrain, and the extent of the Chinese empire at the time and its position in relation to surrounding peoples. That's why there are hardly any cities indicated on that map other than the political capitals.

Dear Yun, the map (Map of RTK) had no purpose neither its has a goal, all of its cities had wrongly seated, the map are fairly useful, there are also numerous inaccuracies and anachronistic of Map of RTK cities which I just found out.

The Nanman 南蛮, which is just a generic Chinese term for "Southern Savages", were based around the area of modern Kunming in Yunnan province.

Wu did do that by sending an army to North Vietnam and occupying it, but there was quite a number of uprising. Wei and Shu were too busy fighting each other.
